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” sensor panel I. Touch the “On/Off” sensor panel for approx. two seconds. 3 8 The digital displays will show ¾.
Switching off the appliance To completely switch off the appliance, actuate the “On/Off” sensor panel I. Touch the “On/Off” sensor panel for approx. one second. 3 After switching off a single cooking zone or the entire cooking surface, the existing residual warmth will be displayed in the digital displays of the corresponding cooking zones in the form of h (for “hot”). Heat settings selecting For setting and changing the heat setting (u to Ç) for the selected cooking zone.
Switching the triple ring zone on and off 3 According to the size of the saucepan or frying pan, when using the triple ring cooking zone you can switch from a smaller cooking zone to a larger cooking zone using the “triple ring zone” sensor panel. You can only switch to the next size if a heat setting has already been set for the smaller heating ring. 1. Set the desired heat setting. 2. Touch the “triple ring” sensor panel. This will switch the setting to the centre heating ring.
3. Touch the “triple ring” sensor panel to activate the outer heating ring. The upper control lamp will illuminate. 4. To switch off the outer heating ring, touch the “triple ring” sensor panel, and the heating ring that is outermost at the time will switch off.
Switching the casserole zone on and off 1. Set the desired heat setting. 2. To switch the casserole zone on or off, place your finger flat on the “casserole zone” sensor field until the indicator light illuminates or goes off.

The control light for the “Stop+Go” sensor panel will illuminate. The keep warm setting will be indicated in the display with u. 3 When the “Stop+Go” sensor panel is actuated again, the cooking settings that were previously selected are reset and the control light goes out. The timer is not stopped by the Stop+Go function.
Residual Heat Indicator 2 1 1 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. Even after the cooking zone has been switched off, the residual heat indicator only goes out when the cooking zone is cold. You can use the residual heat for melting and keeping food warm. Important! As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there is a risk of burns.
the warm up period has finished, the heat setting will once more be displayed. 3 If you should choose a higher heat setting while the automatic function is in operation, e.g. from Á to Ã, the period of time that the warm up function is in operation will be adjusted accordingly. If you select a lower setting, the warm up period will end immediately. You can cook using the automatic warm up function only if the cooking zone is cold or moderately warm.
Child safety lock You can use the child safety lock to safeguard against unwanted use of the cooking surface. Switching on the child safety lock To be able to switch on the child safety lock the appliance must be switched on, but all the cooking zones must be switched off. 1. Touch the sensor field for approx. three seconds. An acoustic signal will sound as confirmation. 2. Touch any heat setting sensor field . l will appear in the displays, and the child safety lock is activated.
Overriding the child safety lock The child safety lock can be overridden in order to use the appliance (until the appliance is switched off again). When the appliance is switched on again the child safety device is activated once again. 1. Switch on the appliance. When the child safety device has been activated, l will be displayed. 2.

The appliance will switch itself off automatically after a few seconds.
Timer 3 There are two ways to use the timer: – as a safety cut-out function. Set a cooking period for a cooking zone, and after this time has elapsed the cooking zone will automatically switch itself off. This function can be used for more than one cooking zone simultaneously. – as a countdown timer without a cut-out function (“egg timer”), whereby an acoustic signal can be heard after the set period of time has elapsed. The countdown timer cannot be used if a cooking zone is switched on.
2. While the control lamp is flashing rapidly, use the + or - timersetting sensor panels to set the desired period of time for this cooking zone up until the point where it automatically switches itself off (e.g. 15 minutes). The safety cut-out function will be activated after several minutes The control lamp will now flash more slowly and the remaining cooking time will be shown in the display as it elapses.

Uses, tables and tips Pans • You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible. • Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim. • Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring on the ceramic glass surface, which is very difficult or impossible to remove. • Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged base.
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.
Settings for Cooking on the Zones The figures in the following table are benchmark figures. The switch setting required for a certain cooking method depends on the quality of the pans and the type and amount of food. Switch setting Automatic warm up function1) (min.
