Cooking zones and sensors
The hob has four cooking zones. A sensor in
the control panel is assigned to each cooking
zone.
You can use the ‘
+
’ sensor (10) to increase
the heat setting of the respective cooking
zone.
You can use the ‘
-
’ sensor (11) to reduce the
heat of the respective cooking zone.
Each time a sensor is touched, an acoustic
signal can be heard.
The sensors must be clean and may not be
covered by objects.
When activating the sensors, always
use the entire
fi
ngertip and not just the
very end of the
fi
nger. Your
fi
nger must be
clean and dry for the sensors to react ap-
propriately.
Each time the sensor registers a touch,
you will hear an acoustic signal.
Switching the hob on
– To switch the hob on, press the on/off sen-
sor (8) for approximately three seconds.
You will hear an acoustic signal. The ‘
-
’ or
‘--’
indicator will light up beside the sensors
of all cooking zones.

Pot recognition
Pot recognition is installed in the cooking
zones. Pot recognition ensures that the cook-
ing zone will heat up only if there is a pot with
a ferromagnetic bottom or another object
made of the same kind of metal located on
that zone. The cooking zone becomes inac-
tive as soon as the pot or the magnetic object
is removed.
Setting the cooking zone
1. Place a suitable pot or pan on the desired
cooking zone.
2. Make sure that the bottom of the cook-
ware and the cooking zone are clean and
dry.
3. Press the sensor for the cooking zone
that you wish to use.
The ‘
0
’ indicator beside the selected sensor
will light up and blink.
0
4. Press the ‘
+
’ sensor (10) (multiple times
in a row if necessary) or press and hold it
down with your finger longer to increase
the heat setting of the selected cooking
zone (highest heat setting = 9).
Press the ‘
-
‘ sensor (11) (multiple times in a
row if necessary) or press and hold it down
with your finger longer to decrease the heat
setting of the selected cooking zone (‘1’ = is
the lowest heat setting; ‘0’ = indicates no
heating).
After a few seconds, the number beside
the selected cooking zone lights up nor-
mally and cooking can begin on the select-
ed cooking zone.
