Operating Instructions Power Management If a high heat setting (8 or 9) is set for the front left, rear right and front right cooking zones simultaneously, the hob control automatically brings about the optimal distribution of heating power. In this case the last cooking zone to be switched on takes priority and is allocated the selected heat setting 8 or 9. The automatic power management sets the remaining two cooking zones to heat setting 7.
Operating Instructions Example: Cooking zone Heat setting Display 1. front left 9 7 and 9 alternately 2. rear right 9 7 and 9 alternately 3.
Operating Instructions Uses, Tables and Tips Pans The better the pan, the better the results. • 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.
Operating Instructions 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.
Operating Instructions Typical Heat Settings The information given in the following tables is for guidance. The heat setting required for cooking depends on the quality of the pans and on the type and quantity of food.
