Start-up and use
!
The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of
grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we
recommend you remove these with a special non-
abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours
of use there may be a smell of rubber which will
disappear very quickly.
!
A few seconds after the hob is connected to the
electricity supply, a buzzer will sound. The hob may
now be switched on.

If the
-----
or

period of time, the display scrolls quickly though the
power levels and timer minutes.

Booster function*
The booster function for some of the cooking zones
may be used to shorten heating-up times. It may be
activated by pressing the
bb
ooster
button. The indicator
light directly above the button will illuminate. This
function boosts the power to 2000 W or 3000 W,
depending on the size of the relevant cooking zone.
The booster stops automatically after 4 minutes. While
the booster for one of the cooking zones is active, the
corresponding front or rear cooking zone will operate at
a reduced power level (e.g. if the booster for the rear
left-hand hotplate has been activated, the power level
of the front left-hand hotplate will be reduced). For
further information, please refer to the
Technical
description of the models.
