Cooking area
It makes sense to use the cooking area if you
wish to use a large pot or roaster.
Please observe the correct positioning of the
cookware:
• Always place the cookware in the middle
of the cooking area.
• When using oval or rectangular roasters,
ensure that the middle covers both cook-
ing area sections.
• The cookware should cover at least ¾
of the cooking area. It is not advisable to
place a round pot in the centre of a cook-
ing area.

Booster function
When the boost function is active the cooking
zone/area heats up at maximum power for 5
minutes. After this time the cooking zone/area
returns to the original heat setting. If the orig-
inal heat setting was “
0
”, the cooking zone/
area heats up to heat setting “
9
”.
The booster function is advisable e.g. for rap-
id searing or boiling water. It is also suitable
for fast boiling and continued cooking at a
reduced temperature. First select a medium
heat setting (e.g. “
5
”) and then activate the
boost function.
The booster function can be switched on for
all cooking zones and the cooking area.
1. Press the sensor for the cooking zone/
area that you wish to use the booster
function for.
The heat setting display of the cooking
zone/area flashes.

vate the booster function.
