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. An audible signal
sounds. The symbols for the hotplates and the functions
available at this time light up. The hob is ready to use.
To switch off: Touch the
#
symbol until the indicators
go out. The residual heat indicator remains lit until the
hotplates have cooled down sufficiently.
Notes
■
If the appliance has not been connected to your
home network or the connection has been broken,
network connection initial set-up will be activated
whenever you switch on the hob.
■
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 desired heat setting in the settings area.
Heat setting 1 = lowest setting.
