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.
Some instructions on cookware
Only use pans with even and flat bottoms.
Uneven pan bottoms prolong the boost times and increase the power require-
ment. Rough pan bottoms scratch the glass-ceramic area when shifted about.
When using fireproof glass or porcelain cookware, please follow the manufac-
turers instructions.
Choose a pan with a diameter at least as large as the cooking zone.
You will thereby save energy and cooking time. You will also avoid overheating
of the cooking area.
Wherever possible, place a lid on the pan.
You will save a lot of energy by cooking in a closed pan. Liquids and foods
will only boil over if the temperature is too high. For the cooking zones, you
can precisely set the temperature required. With a little practice, you will read-
ily make the correct choice of cooking settings so that nothing boils over even
when a lid is in place.
The emergency switch
All of the cooking zones can be switched
off quickly by means of the ON/OFF
sensor.
Sensor-lock
The sensor lock can be used to protect the appliance against unauthorised
operation.
The following functions can still be used when the lock is activated:
■
emergency switch-off (ON/OFF sensor)
■
de-activating the lock
Activating the lock:
Press the lock sensor for
approx. 2 seconds.
The display on the bottom right below the
sensor will light up. The lock has been
activated.
De-activating the lock:
Press the lock sensor for
approx. 2 seconds.
The display on the bottom right below the
sensor will light up. The lock has been de-
activated.
Time limit function (holiday function)
The appliance is equipped with an automatic time limit function. This function
makes sure that the appliance is not in operation for a long time. The time
period of the time limit depends on the selected cooking setting, eg.: The high-
er the selected cooking setting, the faster the appliance is switched off.
The function to limit operation time works separately for each cooking zone.
Other functions
■
If pressing two or more sensor keys – at the same time e.g. when a pan
is mistakenly put onto the sensor key no function is activated. After 10 sec-
onds the appliance switches off automatically.
Exception:
– Switching off a cooking zone by means of simultaneously pressing the
plus and minus sensors.
■
The appliance does not automatically switch on again after a power failure.
If the sensor lock was activated prior to a power failure it will subsequently
be de-activated.
