Cooking Zone 2
Cooking Zone 1
The Flex zone is the large cooking area
located on the left side of the hob (see the
figure below) that is specially designed to
accommodate multiple pots and pans of
varying shapes and sizes at once. The Flex
zone has four zones that are operated by
individual inductors, allowing you to cook
regardless of where cookware is placed on a
cooking zone.
With Flex zone Plus, you can use a combination of different cooking zones to
enlarge the cooking area. See the table below for the corresponding sensor to
touch to activate the different combinations.

NOTE
•
When using only one cooking zone, the diameter of the bottom of the
cookware must be less than 14 cm.
•
The hob may take 5-10 seconds to recognize the position of cookware.
•
Noises may occur while the hob recognizes the cookware.
•
Do not remove cookware during cooking. For safety purposes, the hob
automatically stops if cookware has been removed for more than 5 seconds.
Safety shutoff
If one of the cooking zones is not switched off or the heat setting is not adjusted
after an extended period of time, that particular cooking zone will automatically

NOTE
If the Hob is overheated because of abnormal operation,

And the Hob will be switched off.
NOTE
If cookware is unsuitable or too small or no cookware has been placed on the
cooking zone,
will be displayed.
And after 1 minute the corresponding cooking zone will be switched off.
NOTE
Should one or more of the cooking zones switch off before the indicated time has
elapsed, see the section “Troubleshooting”.
Other reasons why a cooking zone will switch itself off
All cooking zones will switch themselves off if liquid boils over and lands on the
control panel.
The automatic shutoff will also be activated if you place a damp cloth on the
control panel. In both of these instances, the appliance will need to be switched
on again using the main
On/Off control
sensor after the liquid or the cloth has
been removed.
