Timer
The timer can be used to set a max.
cooking time of 99 minutes (1 hour and
39 minutes) for one cooking zone only.
Select the cooking zone to be used with
the timer (an illuminated dot appears to the bottom right
hand side of the heat setting indicator on the display), then
set the desired cooking time using the buttons “+” and “-”
of the timer function (see figure above). A few seconds
after the button is pressed, the timer begins the countdown
(the luminous dot of the selected cooking zone starts
flashing). Once the set time has elapsed, an acoustic signal
sounds and the cooking zone switches off automatically.
To deactivate the timer, press the button “-” until the
display shows “0:0” or press the buttons “+” and “-” of
the timer at the same time.
Caution!
The timer function can only be used
with one cooking zone at a time.

The minute minder can only be used when the hob is not
in use and allows a maximum setting of 99 min.
Press the button “+” above the timer indicators:
the display shows the minutes for setting.
Select the time desired using the b and -.
After a few seconds the minute minder starts to count
down. Once the set time has elapsed an acoustic signal
sounds.
Caution!
The minute minder function can only
be used when the hob is switched off; if it is then
switched on, the minute minder countdown is
automatically cancelled.

or to melt butter.
When the cooking zone cools down, the display switches
off.

The hob features an automatic pot detection
system for all cooking zones. If no pot is detected,
