Power boost setting (cooking zones marked with a P)
The power boost setting makes additional power available for induction
cooking zones. A large quantity of water can be brought to the boil very
quickly.
The power boost setting operates for 10 minutes, after which the power level
is automatically reduced to cooking level 12.
1. Switch on the hob.
2. Press the
minus button
once in order to set the highest power
setting 12.
3. Press the
plus button
once in order to activate the power boost
setting. The power display will show a P.
4. After 10 minutes the power boost setting will switch off automatically. The
P will go off and the power level will switch down to 12.
Note:
In order to prematurely de-activate the power setting, press the minus button .
Power management
For technical reasons two cooking zones always comprise a module and
have a maximum power level. If this power range is exceeded when a higher
power setting level or the power boost function is switched on the power
management system will reduce the power setting of the corresponding
cooking zone of the module.
The display for this cooking zone will initially blink, after which the highest-
possible power setting will be consistently displayed.
