COOKING HINTS
■ To reduce the cooking time, you can turn the control knob to the max when you switch
the plate on.
After a short time you will set the control knob to the required position for the cooking.
■ You should use pots and pans with at bases (pans with the test mark for glass ceramic
hobs are available from specialist shops).
The diameter of the pan should match that of the cooking plate (or be slightly bigger)
to make the most of the energy.
■ Since the cooking surface stays hot for a certain time after the plate has been switched
off, you can switch it off 5 or 10 minutes before the end of the cooking.
The residual heat of the hob will complete the cooking.
■ To save electricity, use pan lids whenever possible.
■ Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop, but in special pans
or containers.
■ Do not scratch the cooktop with cutting or sharp objects. Do not use the glass
ceramic surface as a work surface.
RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATORS
The hob also features no.4 warning lamps
which are wired to the corresponding plate.
When the temperature of a cooking plate is
over 60°C, the warning lamp is also lit-up
to warn of heat on the surface of the hob.
This lamp also stays on after the cooking
plate has been switched off to shown that
the hob surface is still hot.
This residual heat lasts for a rather long
time after the cooking plate has been
switched off.
During this spell of time you should
avoid touching the hob surface over
the cooking plate; please pay special
attention to children.
The lamp will switch off automatically as
soon as the surface temperature of the
cooking plate falls below 60°C.
Caution!
The cooking hob becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
