10 Flex Zone
You can use the Flex cooking zone as a single cooking
zone or as two independent cooking zones. The Flex
cooking zone consists of four inductors. The inductors
work independently of each other and only activate
area of the hob that is covered by the cookware.
10.1 Cookware positions for a single
cooking zone
This is where you can find an overview of the position-
ing of the cookware.
In order to guarantee good pot detection and heat dis-
tribution, position the cookware in the centre.
For a diameter of up to
13 cm, position the cook-
ware on one of the four
positions as shown in the
illustration.
For a diameter over
13 cm, position the cook-
ware on one of the three
positions as shown in the
illustration.
If the cookware covers
more than one cooking
zone, position the cook-
ware starting on the up-
per or lower edge of the
flexible cooking zone.
10.2 Cookware positions for two
independent cooking zones
This is where you can find an overview of the position-
ing of the cookware.
You can use the front and rear cooking zones with two
inductors each independently of each other. Set the re-
quired power level for each individual cooking zone.
Use just one item of cook-
ware on each cooking
zone.
