smaller circle only, turn the knob to
0
and

Residual heat
The signal lamps located between the
cooking zones come on when the
temperature of one or more of the heating
zones exceeds 60°C. The lamps go off
upon temperature dropping to below
approximately 60°C.
Advice on energy-saving
• The diameter of the base of the pan must
correspond to the diameter of the
cooking zone.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
pan leads to a waste of energy.
• The bottom of the receptacles must be
very thick and perfectly flat; before
placing on the cooking hob, make sure
that it, as well as the cooking hob itself,
are perfectly clean and dry.
• To avoid scratching of the cooking hob,
never use cast-iron receptacles or
receptacles with a rough bottom.
3.6 Using the storage compartment
The storage compartment is at the bottom of
the cooker. To open it, pull the handle
towards you. It can be used to store
cookware or metallic objects necessary
when using the appliance.
Improper use
Danger of burns
• Supervise children carefully as they
cannot readily see the residual heat
indicator. The cooking zones remain hot
for a certain period of time even after
they have been turned off. Make sure
that children never touch the hob.
