Residual heat indicators
As long as the cooking zone is still hot an
“H” will appear in the display when the
cooking zone has been switched off.
Multi-circuit cooking zones
Usually the cooking zone with the smaller diameter is being heated.
Switch on the outer cooking zone circuit for bigger sauce pans or frying pans.
Dual-circuit cooking zones and frying zones
Two-circuit-circuit connection of the re-
spective cooking zone can only be effected
after the corresponding cooking zone has
been activated and switched on.
Select the desired cooking level 1-9 .
Switch on the second heating element by
means of the Multi-circuit key. The control
lamp of the selected cooking zone lights
up.
The corresponding cooking zone must also be activated in order to switch off
the two-circuit connection. The outer heating circuits are switched off by pres-
sing the Multi-circuit key once again. The control lamps are then no longer lit.
Some instructions on cookware
Only use pans with even and flat bottoms.
Uneven pan bottoms prolong the boost times and increase the power require-
ment. Rough pan bottoms scratch the glass-ceramic area when shifted about.
When using fireproof glass or porcelain cookware, please follow the manufac-
turers instructions.
Choose a pan with a diameter at least as large as the cooking zone.
You will thereby save energy and cooking time. You will also avoid overheating
of the cooking area.
Wherever possible, place a lid on the pan.
You will save a lot of energy by cooking in a closed pan. Liquids and foods
will only boil over if the temperature is too high. For the cooking zones, you
can precisely set the temperature required. With a little practice, you will read-
ily make the correct choice of cooking settings so that nothing boils over even
when a lid is in place.
The emergency switch
All of the cooking zones can be switched
off quickly by means of the ON/OFF
sensor.
