Cooking areas
It is advisable to use the cooking area if you
want to use large pots or roasting pans.
Please observe the correct positioning of the
cookware:
• Please also ensure that the cookware is
always placed in the middle of the cook-
ing zone/area.
• For oval or rectangular roasting pans,
ensure that they cover the centre of the
cooking area.
• The cookware should cover at least ¾ of
the cooking zone/area. It is not advisable
to place a round pot in the centre of a
cooking area.

Booster function
When the booster function is active the cook-
ing 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 original heat setting was “
0
”, the cook-
ing 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 boost function is available for all cooking
zones/areas.
1. Touch the sensor of the cooking zone/
area for which you would like to activate
the boost function.
