The flexible cooking zone allows you to position cook-

ware of any shape or size any way you like. It consists

of four inductors that work independently of each other.

When the flexible cooking zone is in use, only the area

that is covered by cookware is activated.

8.1 Positioning the cookware

The flexible cooking zone can be configured in two

ways, depending on which cookware is used. In order

to guarantee good thermal detection and heat distribu-

tion, we recommend positioning the cookware in the

centre, as shown in the figures.

As a connected cooking zone

Recommended for cooking with just one item of cook-

ware.

¡

Position the cookware depending on the size:

¡

Recommended oblong cookware 

​⁠:

As two separate cooking zones

Recommended for cooking with two items of cook-

ware.

You can use the front and rear zone independently of

one another, and set a separate power level for each

zone.

Caution

Do not place cookware in the middle between the right

and left zones. The cooking zones are not activated

correctly and you do not achieve a good cooking res-

ult.

8.2 flexInduction disconnecting

By default, the cooking zone is configured in such a

way that the two cooking zones are connected to each

other. To separate the cooking zones:

1.

Select one of the two cooking zones.

2.

Press  ​⁠.

a

The display lights up. The FlexZone is disconnected.

Notes

¡

You can change the default setting for the flexible

cooking zone. You can find out how to do this in the

"Basic settings" section → 

Page 15

.

¡

If you move or lift the item of cookware onto the act-

ive cooking zone, the cooking zone automatically

starts searching and the power level you selected

previously is retained.

8.3 flexInduction connect

Touch  ​⁠.

a

The cooking zones are connected to each other

and continue to work together.
