3 Appliance description
▸ Thick pan walls absorb the vibrations and reduce the noise level.
Pan position
Position pots and pans on the hob so
that the steam is not drawn into the
range hood over the handles.
Energy-efficient cooking
For maximum energy efficiency and even heat distribution note the following:
▪ The base of the cookware must be clean, dry and smooth.
▪ Centre the cookware in the middle of the cooking zone.
▪ Use a well-fitting lid.
▪ Match the diameter of the cookware to the quantity of food to be cooked.
Coated cookware
▪ For frying, do not use a higher power level than «7».
▪ Coated cookware may be operated above level «7» provided that the bottom of the
pan is completely covered with liquid.
– The coating may otherwise become overheated and damaged.
Never use coated frying pans with automatic boost or PowerPlus.
Noise during cooking
Cookware can make noise during cooking. This does not indicate any malfunction, nor
does it affect the functioning of the appliance in any way.
Noise depends on the cookware used. If the noise causes considerable disturb-
ance, it can help to change the cookware.
3.7 Range hood
The range hood is designed for extracting cooking vapours and odours. It can be used
in the extraction or recirculation mode.
Extraction mode
Vapours and odours produced during cooking are extracted by a fan. The metal grease
filters clean the extracted air, which is then passed through a connecting pipe fitted with
an integrated non-return valve and through the air duct to the outside.
When in use, ensure there is a sufficient supply of fresh air to replace the air that is
being extracted.
