Single circle cooking zones have one heating element, whilst double circle (vario) cooking zones and extended zones have two. Depending on model, the heating elements may be separated by an isolating ring. Each cooking zone has overheating protection (a temperature limiter), which stops the ceramic surface from becoming too hot (see "Overheati[...]

How the hob is operated The hob is equipped with electronic sensor controls which react to finger contact. To operate the hob, touch the relevant sensor. Each time you touch a sensor, an audible tone sounds. In order to set or alter a power level or the time, the cooking zones and the timer must be "active". To activate a cooking zone or [...]

Switching on The hob must be switched on before any of the zones can be used. Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being used. To switch the hob on ^ Touch the s sensor. 0 will appear in each of the cooking zone displays. 00 will appear in the timer display. If no further entry is made, the hob will switch itself off after a few secon[...]

Power level range The appliance is delivered with 9 power levels programmed in. If you wish to fine tune a setting, you can extend the power level range (see "Programming"). The intermediate setting will be represented by an illuminated dot next to the number. Cooking process Power levels* Standard factory settings (9 power levels) Extend[...]

Auto heat-up When Auto heat-up has been activated, the cooking zone switches on automatically at the highest power setting and then switches to the continued cooking setting selected.

– Most suitable The best pans for use on a ceramic hob are those with a thick base which is very slightly concave when cold. When heated, the base flattens to rest evenly on the hob, optimising the conduction of the heat. cold hot – Less suitable Pans made of glass, ceramic or stoneware are less suitable, as they do not conduct the heat so well[...]

– Check that the diameter of the pan base is wide enough for the cooking zone so that heat is not lost unnecessarily. too small suitable – Use a pan lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss. uncovered covered – Select a smaller pan when cooking small quantities. A small pan on a small cooking zone uses less energy than a large, partially f[...]

The hob must be switched on to use the timer. The timer can be used for two different functions: - to set the minute minder - to set a cooking zone to switch off automatically. You can select a time from 1 minute ( 01 )t o9 1 / 2 hours ( 9.^ ). If a time of more than 99 minutes ( 99 ) is set, the time is set in half-hour steps. The half hour is ind[...]

To switch a cooking zone off automatically You can set a time at the end of which a cooking zone will switch off automatically. All the cooking zones can be programmed at the same time. If the time programmed is longer than the maximum operational time allowed, the cooking zone will switch off after the maximum time allowed (see "Safety switch[...]

If more than one switch-off time is programmed, the shortest time remaining will show in the display, and the indicator lamp for that particular cooking zone will flash. All the other indicator lamps will light up constantly. If you want to check on the time remaining for another zone, touch the m sensor repeatedly until the indicator lamp for the [...]

Safety lock / System lock Keep children away from the hob for their own safety.

Safety switch-off Safety switch-off with an over-long cooking time If one of the cooking zones is heated for an unusually long period of time (see chart) and the power level is not altered, the hob will switch itself off automatically and the relevant residual heat indicator will light up. To use the cooking zone again, switch it back on in the usu[...]

Overheating protection Cooking zones Each zone is equipped with overheating protection (internal temperature limiter). This switches off the heating elements in the cooking zone before the ceramic surface overheats. If the heating element switches on and off even when the highest power level is selected, this indicates that the overheating protecti[...]
