PowerBoost Feature
The PowerBoost function enables you to heat up large
quantities of water more quickly than with power level 9.
This function is available for all cooking zones, provided
the other cooking zone in the same group is not in use. If
it is, the illuminated ring will flash three times and three
signals will sound. Then power level 9 will be set
automatically without activating the function. Turn the
control knob to the 0 position.
Activating
Push in the control knob and turn it to the
Ž
position. A
signal will sound; the illuminated ring around the control
knob will go out and then turn orange.
The function has now been activated.
Deactivating
Turn the control knob to the power level you require. A
signal sounds; the illuminated ring around the control
knob goes out and then turns orange.
The function has now been deactivated.
Note:
In certain circumstances, the PowerBoost function
may switch itself off automatically in order to protect the
electronic elements inside the cooktop.
In this case, power level 9 is set automatically, the
illuminated ring flashes three times and three signals
sound.
Turn the control knob to position 0 or any power level.
Frying Sensor
Frying Sensor
This function can be used to fry food while maintaining
the suitable frying pan temperature.
Advantages When Frying
▯
The cooking zone only heats up if this is required to
maintain the temperature. This saves energy and
prevents the oil or fat from overheating.
▯
The frying sensor function reports when the empty
frying pan has reached the optimum temperature for
adding oil and then for adding the food.
Notes
▯
Do not place a lid on the pan. Otherwise, the function
does not activate correctly. You can use a splash
guard to prevent splashes of grease.
▯
Use oil or grease that is suitable for deep fat frying. If
butter, margarine, extra virgin olive oil, or lard is used,
use heat setting 1 or 2.
▯
Never leave a frying pan, with or without food,
unattended when it is being heated.
▯
If the temperature of the cooking zone is higher than
that of the cookware or vice-versa, the frying sensor is
not activated correctly.
Frying Pans for the Frying Sensor
Frying pans specifically suited for use with the frying
sensor are available. This optional accessory can be
purchased separately from specialist retailers or through
our technical after-sales service. Always quote the
relevant reference number.
▯
GP900001 - 6" (15 cm) frying pan.
▯
GP900002 - 7½" (19 cm) frying pan.
▯
GP900003 - 8¼" (21 cm) frying pan.
These frying pans have a non-stick coating so that you
only need a small amount of oil to fry food.
Notes
▯
The frying sensor has been configured specifically for
this type of frying pan.
▯
Ensure that the diameter of the base of the frying pan
corresponds to the size of the burner. Place the frying
pan in the center of the burner.
▯
The frying sensor may not activate on the flex cooking
zone if the frying pan does not match the size of the
burner or if it is positioned incorrectly. See section
