Storing setting discs

The setting discs are magnetic. Keep the setting discs away 

from magnetic data media, such as video cassettes, diskettes, 

credit cards or cards with magnetic strips. The data these 

contain could otherwise be wiped. They can also cause 

interference in television sets and monitors. 

ã=

For wearers of electronic implants, e.g. pacemakers or 

insulin pumps.!

Implants could be affected by magnetic fields. You must 

therefore never carry the setting discs in your pockets. They 

must be kept at least 10 cm from pacemakers.

Note: 

The setting discs are magnetic. Small metal parts which 

attach themselves to the underside can scratch the surface of 

the glass ceramic and front moulding. Always wipe and clean 

the setting discs thoroughly.

Setting the hob

This section informs you how to set the hotplates. The table 

shows heat settings and cooking times for various meals. 

Switching the hob on and off

The main switch is used to switch the hob on and off.
To switch on: touch the 

#

 symbol. The 

 hotplate indicators 

light up. The hob is ready for use.
To switch off: touch the 

#

 symbol until the 

 hotplate 

indicators go out. All hotplates are switched off. The residual 

heat indicator remains on until the hotplates have cooled down 

sufficiently.

Note: 

The hob switches off automatically if all hotplates have 

been switched off for more than 10 seconds.

Setting a hotplate

Use the setting discs to set the desired heat setting. 
Heat setting 1 = lowest setting
Heat setting 9 = highest setting
There is an intermediate setting between each heat setting. This 

is identified by a dot.

To set the heat setting:

The hob must be switched on.

Select the hotplate. Turn the appropriate setting disc until the 

heat setting indicator shows the desired heat setting.

The hotplate is switched on.

To change the heat setting:

Use the setting disc to set the new heat setting.

To switch off the hotplate:

Use the setting disc to adjust the setting to 

. After about 

10 seconds, the residual heat indicator appears.

Note: 

Hotplate temperature is regulated by the heat switching 

on and off. The heat may also switch on and off at the highest 

setting.

Table of cooking times

The following table provides some examples. 
Cooking times and heat settings may vary depending on the 

type of food, its weight and quality. Deviations are therefore 

possible.

When heating thick liquids, stir regularly.
For bringing liquids to the boil, use heat setting 9.
