Getting to know your appliance
Control knob
You can use the control knobs to select the heat setting,
the PowerBoost function and the Flex cooking zone.
The control knobs have an illuminated ring with an
illuminated symbol for each function. The illuminated
ring changes colour when particular functions or
processes are activated.
The hotplates
Residual heat indicator
The hob has a residual heat indicator for each hotplate.
This indicates that the hotplate is still hot. Do not touch
the hotplate while the residual heat indicator is still lit or
immediately after it goes out.
The following will be shown depending on the amount of
residual heat:
▯
•
: High temperature
▯
œ
: Low temperature
and the illuminated ring around the control knob will
flash.
If the cookware is removed from the hotplate while
cooking is in progress, the heat setting indicator will
flash and the control knob will be lit orange.
Turn the control knob to position 0.
If the hotplate is switched off, the residual heat
indicator will be lit and the illuminated ring around the
control knob will flash. Even after the hob has been
switched off, the residual heat indicator will remain lit as
long as the hotplate is still warm.
