Automatic boost function
Each of the cooking zones and the
griddle are fitted with the automatic
boost function. The parboiling boost
is activated at full power. The
parboiling boost time depends on the
subsequent cooking level which has
been selected after the activation.
The cooking zone automatically
changes to the selected level as soon
as the set parboiling boost time has
elapsed.
Select the cooking level 9 with the plus
sensor.
A dot will light up on the cooking level
display.
Now the required cooking level – from
1-8 – is set with the minus sensor
within 10 seconds.
If the required cooking level is selected after the decimal point has switched
off, the automatic boost function will not be activated.
Residual heat indicators
As long as the cooking zone is still hot an
“H” will appear in the display when the
cooking zone has been switched off.
Dual-circuit cooking zone
As a standard rule, the smallest cooking zone diameter is heated.
Switch on the outer cooking zone circuit for large pots.
Two-circuit connection of the cooking zone
can only be effected after the cooking zone
has been activated and switched on.
Select the desired cooking level 1-9.
Switch on the second heating element by
means of the Multi-circuit key. The control
lamp lights up.
The corresponding cooking zone must also
be activated in order to switch off the two-circuit connection. The outer heating
circuits are switched off by pressing the Multi-circuit key once again. The
control lamps is then no longer lit.
Which are the best pots and pans?
Use pots and pans with flat, smooth bottoms.
The cooking time with pans and pots with curved bottoms is longer and
consumes more energy. Pans with rough bottoms scratch the glass ceramic
cooking surface when they are moved. When using cookware made from
fireproof glass or porcelain please follow the instructions of the manufacturer.
Choose a pot or pan whose diameter fits the cooking zone.
By doing this you save energy and cooking time and avoid the overheating of
the hob.
If possible always place a lid on the pan.
You save a lot of energy by cooking in a closed pan. Food only boils over when
the temperature is too high. For the cooking zones, you can precisely set the
temperature required. With a little practice, you will readily make the correct
choice of cooking settings so that nothing boils over even when a lid is in
place.
