GLASS CERAMIC COOKING SURFACE

- The hob is resistant to temperature changes.

- The hob is also impact-resistant. Even if the cookware is placed onto the hob roughly,

the hob will not be damaged.

- Using the glass ceramic hob as a storage area may result in scratches or other damage

to it.

- Do not use the glass ceramic hob if it is cracked or broken. If a sharp object falls on

the hob, the hob may break. The consequences of such occurrence may be visible

immediately or only after a while. If any visible crack appears in the hob, immediately

cut o the power supply to the appliance.

- Make sure the cooking zone and the cookware bottom is clean and dry. This will allow

better conduction of heat and prevent any damage to the heating surface. Do not place

empty cookware on the cooking zone.

INDUCTION COOKING SURFACE

480756

If sugar or food with high sugar content is spilled over a hot class

ceramic hob, immediately wipe the hob or remove the sugar with

a scraper, even if the cooking zone is still hot. This will prevent

any damage to the class ceramic surface.

Do not use detergents and other cleaners to clean a hot glass

ceramic hob as this could damage the surface.

- The cooking hob is ﬁ tted with highly e cient induction cooking

zones. The heat is generated directly in the bottom of the pan

where it is needed the most. This avoids any losses through the

glass ceramic surface. Power consumption is considerably lower

than in conventional cooking zones with radiation heaters.

- The glass ceramic cooking zone is not heated directly, but only

indirectly with the heat radiated back by the pan. After the

cooking zone is switched o , this heat is indicated as »residual

heat«.

- In induction cooking zones, heating is made possible by the

induction coil installed under the glass ceramic surface. The coil

induces a magnetic ﬁ eld which generates eddy currents in the

bottom of a ferromagnetic pan (i.e. a pan that a magnet will

adhere to), which in turn heats the pan.

INDUCTION COOKING ZONE OPERATING PRINCIPLE

480756

- The induction will work correctly if you use suitable cookware.

- Make sure the pot or pan is in the middle of the cooking zone.

- Suitable cookware includes cookware made of steel, enamel-

coated steel pans, or cast iron pans.

- Unsuitable cookware: alloy steel cookware with copper or

aluminium bottom, and glass cookware.

- The magnet test: Use a small magnet to check whether the

pan or pot bottom is ferromagnetic. If the magnet sticks to the

bottom of the pan, then it is suitable for an induction cooker.

- When using a pressure cooker, keep an eye on it until the right pressure is reached.

First, set the cooking zone to maximum power; then, following the pressure cooker

manufacturer's instructions, use the relevant sensor to decrease the cooking power at

the right time.

- Make sure there is enough liquid in the pressure cooker, or any other pot or pan. Due to

overheating, using an empty pot on the cooking zone may result in damage to both the

pot and the cooking zone.

- When using special cookware, observe the manufacturer's instructions.

PAN RECOGNITION

- Even if there is no pot or pan on the cooking zone or if the pan

used has a diameter that is smaller than the diameter of the

cooking zone, there will be no losses of energy.

- If the pan is much smaller than the cooking zone, there is a

possibility that it will not be recognized by the cooking zone.

When the cooking zone is activated, the sign »U« will appear on

the cooking power display. If a pan is placed on the induction

cooking zone within the next ten minutes, the hob will recognize

it and switch on with the selected cooking power. As soon as the

pan is removed from the cooking zone, the power supply is cut

o .

- If a smaller pan or pot is placed on the cooking zone and it is

recognized, the hob will only use as much power as necessary

given the pan size.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

- When purchasing cookware, note that the diameter indicated on the pan usually

pertains to the upper edge or the lid, which is normally larger than the diameter of the

pan bottom.

- If a dish takes a long time to cook, use a pressure cooker. Make sure there is always

su cient liquid in the pressure cooker. If an empty cooker is placed on the cooking hob,

it may overheat which in turn may lead to damage to both the pot and the cooking

zone.

- Whenever possible, close the pot or pan with a suitably sized lid. Use cookware that

ﬁ ts the amount of food you are cooking. Cooking in a large partly full pot will consume

much more energy.

OPERATING THE INDUCTION COOKING

HOB

COOKING POWER LEVELS

Switch on the cooking zone using the knobs on the control panel.

Level Purpose

0 Switched off, using the residual heat

1 - 2 Keeping the food warm, slow cooking of smaller amounts (lowest setting)

3 Slow cooking (follow-up cooking after the initial power boost)

4 - 5

Slow cooking (follow-up cooking) of large amounts, pan-roasting of larger

chunks

6 Searing and browning

7 - 8 Searing

9 Cooking of large amounts, searing

P "Power boost" setting, also suitable for very large amounts of food

A Automatic rapid heating

(P) – POWER BOOST

For rapid cooking, power boost can be activated for any cooking zone.

The front left cooking zone features the extra power function. In this zone, extra

power is activated for five minutes; then, the zone automatically switches to level 9.

Rotate the knob to the right until the "P" sign. The sign "P" will

appear on the power level display unit. Power Boost will be

deactivated as soon as you decrease the power level.

480756

AUTOMATIC RAPID HEATING

All cooking zones are fitted with a special mechanism that sets the cooking power to

maximum at the start of the cooking process, regardless of the actual power setting. After

a while, the cooking zone power switches back to the initially set level (1 to 8).

The rapid heating system is suitable for dishes that have to be heated up and then

cooked for a longer period of time without the need for constant supervision.

The rapid heating system is not suitable for braising, frying or sautéing, food that

requires frequent turning, basting, or mixing, or food that has to boil for a longer period of

time in a pressure cooker.

The rapid heating function can be deactivated by reducing the cooking power level.

If the power stetting knob remains in the "0" position after the rapid heating function is

activated, this function will be switched off after 3 seconds.

If the pot or pan is removed from the cooking zone, and returned within ten minutes,

heating with the automatic rapid heating system will resume and continue until the end.

RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR

The glass ceramic cooking zone is not heated directly, but only indirectly with the heat

radiated back by the pan.

As long as the symbol "H" is lit up after the hob has been switched off, there is residual

heat in the cooking zone, which can be used to keep the food warm or for defrosting.

When the "H" sign disappears, the cooking zone may still be hot. Risk of burns!

Rotate the knob all the way to the right to the symbol "A" and

hold it for two seconds until a beep is heard. Then, set the desired

cooking level. "A" and selected power level will alternate on the

power level display. When the power boost heating time expires,

the cooking zone automatically switches to the selected level

which will then be continuously displayed.
