Operating the appliance
This chapter explains how to set a hotplate. The table
shows heat settings and cooking times for various
meals.
Tip:
Switch on the ventilation system when you start
cooking and only switch it off a few minutes after you
have finished cooking. This is the most effective way to
remove the cooking vapours.
Note:
Never operate the appliance without the metal
grease filter and the overflow container.
Switching the hob on and off
Switch the hob on and off using the main switch.
To switch on: Touch the
#
symbol. The symbols for the
hotplates and the functions available at this time light
up. ‹ lights up next to the hotplates. Position the twist
knob in the area in which it can be used. The hob is
ready for use.
To switch off: Touch the
# symbol until the indicator
goes out. All hotplates are switched off. The residual
heat indicator remains lit until the hotplates have cooled
down sufficiently.
Notes
■
The hob will automatically switch itself off if the
cooking zones have been switched off for a few
seconds.
■
The settings are stored for 4 seconds after the hob
has been switched off. If you switch the hob back on
during this time, the hob will operate using the
stored settings.
Setting a hotplate
Set the required heat setting using the twist knob.
Heat setting 1 = lowest setting.
Heat setting 9 = highest setting.
Every heat setting has an intermediate setting. This is
marked with a dot.
Notes
■
To protect the fragile parts of your appliance from
overheating and electrical overloading, the hob may
temporarily reduce the power.
■
In order to prevent the appliance from producing
excess noise, the hob may temporarily reduce the
power.

residual heat indicator lights up.
Notes
■
If no pan has been placed on the hotplate, the
selected power level flashes. After a certain time has
elapsed, the hotplate switches off.
■
If a pan has been placed on the hotplate before
switching on the hob, it will be detected within
20 seconds of pressing the main switch and the
hotplate will be selected automatically. Once
detected, select the power level within the next
20 seconds or the hotplate will switch off.
