The hob
Power indicator light
(9)
The yellow power indicator light (9) is illumi-
nated as soon as one cooking zone or the
oven is switched on. It will switch off again
when
all
of the cooking zones
and
the oven
are switched off.
Residual heat display
(5)
The residual heat display (5) will remain illu-
minated for as long as a cooking zone is still
warm. It warns you of any possible burning
and lets you know that you can still use re-
sidual heat to cook.
CAUTION!
Risk of burns!
If a power cut takes place, the residual
heat indicator will go out and may not
indicate present residual heat!

Do not touch a hot cooking zone af-
ter a power failure.
Cooking and energy-saving tips
Settings
1)
Application and Examples
1
Gentle boiling / keeping warm, for
soaking rice
2-3
Boiling most dishes such as
soups and vegetables
4-5
Gentle roasting / intense further
cooking for breaded items
6-7
Normal roasting for roast pota-
toes
8
Intense frying for quick stir-frying
9
Searing and parboiling, for pota-
toes, braised meat
1)
For smaller quantities ½ level lower, for larg-
er quantities ½ level higher.
– To sear and parboil food, always select the
highest setting.
– Once the pot boils and steam forms or the
steak is brown on both sides, switch to a
lower level; for larger pots and pans use
the setting ‘2’, otherwise setting ‘1’ is suf-
ficient.
– Roasts weighing more than 1 kilogram are
best cooked in the oven.
– Use the right dishes and a little water/oil to
cook; this helps to preserve the vitamins.
– Use the residual heat of the cooking zones.
The heat is sufficient enough for 5 to
10 minutes, e.g. for soaking rice.
– When cooking, always leave the lid on the
saucepan wherever possible. Liquids can
be brought to the boil more quickly with the
lid on than without.
– Only ever use high-quality, new sauce-
pans and pans. They lie flat on the hob
and therefore conduct energy more easi-
ly than cookware with a warped or dented
base (please note in the chapter “The right
cookware”).
– Turn the level down quickly and continue to
cook at the lowest possible setting.
– Always use pressure cooking saucepans
whenever possible. This will halve the
cooking process and you will save a lot of
energy.
