Function and the Way the Induction Cooking Zone Works A copper wire induction coil is beneath the ceramic glass cooking surface. This generates electromagnetic fields, which act directly on the base of the pots and pans and not, as with other heating up methods, first heating the ceramic glass. This means that the base of the pan is immediately heated up, which saves time and energy. Since the heat required for cooking is generated directly in the base of the pan the cooking zone itself hardly warms up.
1 The following letters and functions are displayed only with the two induction cooking zones. f = Error display flashes if the cooking zone is activated and – no pan is on the cooking zone or – unsuitable pots and pans are used p = Power function lights up when the Power function is activated. The Power function supplies extra-high heating capacity. It can be activated for the front left cooking zone.
Suitable Kitchenware for Induction Cooking Zones Pots and Pans • In principle all pots and pans with magnetic bases are suitable. These are steel, steel-enamel as well as cast-iron pots and pans. • High grade steel pans with a mixed metal base (sandwich base, e.g. Tefal with an aluminium/copper base) are suitable for induction only if the manufacturer has expressly marked them as such. In that case they have a ferromagnetic percentage in the base. • If you wish to use a special type of pan (e.g.
Note: Please note the diameter of the pan base when buying new pans, since the manufacturers usually specify the top edge diameter of their pans. Automatic Pan Sensing The induction cooking zone does not function when unsuitable pans are used. If the cooking zone is switched on without a suitable pan on it f flashes in the digital display of the cooking zone. After about 10 minutes the cooking zone switches itself off automatically. _ appears in the digital display. Also when overheating occurs (e.g.
Operating the hob Touch Control sensor field To operate the Touch Control sensor field place your finger from above flat onto the required field until the appropriate displays come on or go out or the required function is carried out. Switching on the Appliance The entire appliance is switched on using the “On/Off” I sensor field. Touch the “On/Off” sensor field for approx. 2 seconds. 3 14 The digital displays will show _ and the decimal point will flash.
Switching Off the Appliance To switch off the appliance completely activate the “On/Off” I sensor field. Touch the “On/Off” sensor field for approx. 1 second. 3 When an individual cooking zone or the entire hob is switched off, any residual heat is shown with an h (for “Hot”) in the digital display for the appropriate cooking zones. Cooking Zone Selection To select the required cooking zone touch the corresponding sensor field for approx. one second.
Heat Setting Selection For setting and adjusting the heat setting (1 to 9) for the selected cooking zone. Use sensor field + to increase the heat setting. Lower the heat setting with sensor field -. 3 If several cooking zones are being used simultaneously, the required cooking zone must be selected by touching the appropriate sensor field before adjusting the heat setting. The decimal point in the display shows which cooking zone has been selected.
Switching the Casserole Zone On and Off 1. Select the appropriate cooking zone. 2. Set the required heat setting. 3. To switch the casserole zone on or off place your finger flat on the “booster” touch control sensor field, until the control indicator comes on or goes off.
Switching off a cooking zone 1. Select the required cooking zone with the cooking zone sensor fields. 2. Touch sensor fields + and - simultaneously to switch off or turn sensor field - back to zero. 3 A cooking zone may only be switched off when the decimal point is on in the cooking zone display.
2. With the + or - sensor fields select heat setting 9. Stop briefly and touch the + sensor field again. a lights up in the heat setting display. 3. Next, touch the sensor field - and set the required continued heat setting 1 to 8. The heat setting selected for further cooking then is displayed. After 5 seconds, a appears in the display again instead of heat setting selected for further cooking. The heat setting is displayed again after the heating-up time has ended.
3 If you select a higher heat setting when the automatic function is in operation, e.g. from 3 to 5, the previous heating-up time is taken into account. If you select a lower setting, then the automatic function is brought to an immediate end. If you start cooking again on a cooking zone that is still warm, the automatic heating-up function uses the residual heat. This saves time and energy. Cooking without the Automatic Heating-Up Function 2 1. For heating up/browning, select a high power. 2.
Locking/Unlocking the Control Panel With the exception of the “On/Off” sensor field the control panel can be locked at any required time during cooking in order to prevent adjusting the settings such as when wiping over with a cloth. This function is also suitable as a child safety feature. 1. Touch the “Lock” sensor field until the control indicator comes on. 3 2. To release the lock touch the “Lock” sensor field again continuously until the control indicator goes out.
Timer A cooking duration can be set with the integrated timer for all cooking zones. When the end of the cooking duration is reached, the cooking zone switches itself off automatically. 1. Using the cooking zone sensor field, select the required cooking zone and set the required heat setting. 2. Touch the TIMER W sensor field to activate the timer function for this cooking zone. 00 will appear in the display. 3.
3 To set the timer more quickly, leave your finger on the + or - sensor field until the required time is reached. If the - sensor field is operated first, the time setting will begin at 99 minutes; if the + sensor field is operated first, the time setting will begin at 1 minute. Displaying the remaining cooking time If you select a cooking zone which is in timer mode, the cooking time still remaining appears in the timer display window. Using the timer to measure short periods of time (“Minute Minder”).
Uses, tables and tips Advice on cooking with and without automatic warm up The automatic warm up function is suitable for: • dishes that start off cold, are heated up at high power and do not need to be continually watched when cooking on the selected heat setting, • dishes that are put in a hot frying pan.
Note: The figures given in the following tables are for guidance. The switch setting required for cooking depends on the quality of the pots and pans and on the type and quantity of the foodstuffs.

Cleaning and care Advantages for Cleaning and Caring for the Induction Cooking Zone 2 The cleaning effort for induction ceramic glass cooking surfaces is considerably less than for cooking surfaces with radiant heating: – The induction cooking zone reacts faster to switching down and off. Boiling over and burning in of dishes is avoided to a large degree. – The temperaturs on the ceramic glass surface are clearly lower with inductive cooking than with the conventional radiant heating systems.
Stubborn Soiling 3 1. To remove food that has boiled over or stubborn splashes, use a glass scraper. 2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface. 3. Remove soiling by sliding the blade. You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic glass cleaners from your local Service Force Centre. 1 Problem Dirt 1. Remove burnt-on sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other meltable materials with a glass scraper immediately and while still hot.
