How to cut power consumption
The following are a few useful hints to help
you cut your consumption of energy and use
your new induction hob and the cookware
efficiently.
• The base of your cooking pots should be the
same size as the cooking zone.
• When buying cooking pots, note that it is
frequently the diameter of the top of the pot
that it indicated. This is usually larger than the
base of a pot.
• Pressure cookers are particularly low on
energy and time required thanks to the
pressure and the fact that they are tightly
closed. Short cooking times mean that
vitamins are preserved.
• Always make sure that there is sufficient fluid
in your pressure cooker since the cooking
zone and the cooker may be damaged as
a result of overheating if the pressure cooker
boils dry.
• Always close cooking pots with a suitable lid.
• Use the right pot for the quantity of food you
are cooking. A large pot which is hardly filled
will use up a lot of energy.
Power levels
The heating power of the cooking zones can
be set at various power levels. In the chart you
will find examples of how to use each setting.
Setting Suitable for
0 OFF, using residual heat
Keep-warm function

6 Roasting, getting juices
7-8 Roasting

P Power boost (highest power output)
A higher power level may need to be selected
for cooking pots without a lid.
Residual heat display
The glass hob is equipped with an as a
residual heat indicator.
As long as the lights up after the cooking
zone has been switched OFF, the residual heat
can be used for melting food or for keeping
food warm.
The cooking zone may still be hot when the
letter no longer lights up. Risk of burns!
The glass ceramic is not directly heated in the
case of an induction cooking zone; it is only
heated up by heat reflected by the pan.
