Dials
The numbers for the different power levels are located on the retractable dials and are
visible when extended.
▸ To extend the dial, press it in the middle.
▸ To retract the dial, first set it to «0» and then press it in the middle.
11.2 Cookware
Suitable cookware
Cookware should have a stable bottom. When heated, the base of the cookware must lie
flat on the surface of the cooking zone.
Cookware made of metal is more suitable than that made of glass or ceramic as with
metal the heat is distributed evenly quicker.
Cookware bases made of aluminium or aluminium alloys can leave stubborn abrasion
marks on the glass ceramic surface that are very difficult to remove.
Energy-efficient cooking
Note the following for maximum energy efficiency and even heat distribution:
▪ The base of the cookware must be clean, dry and smooth.
▪ The diameter of the base of the cookware should correspond to the diameter of the
cooking zone.
▪ Centre the cookware in the middle of the cooking zone.
▪ Use a well-fitting lid.
▪ Match the diameter of the cookware to the quantity of food to be cooked.
11.3 Operating the appliance
The individual cooking zones are all operated in the same way.
Selecting a cooking zone
▸ If the dials are retracted, press in the middle of the dial of the desired cooking zone.
– The dial springs out.
▸ Set the dial to the desired power level.
–
The power indicator light illuminates.
For normal cooking zones, the dial can be turned past the «0» power level in both
directions.
For dual ring cooking/frying zones, the dial has an end stop. It can only be turned
in a clockwise direction and back in an anti-clockwise direction.
▸ To switch on the outer cooking zone of a dual ring cooking/frying zone, first turn the
dial all the way round and then set to the desired power level.
