Turning off the cooking zone
Select the cooking zone and set the power level to 0. The
cooking zone is turned off and the residual heat indicator
is displayed.
Notes
▯ If there is no cookware on the induction cooking zone,
the heat setting display blinks. After a while, the
cooking zone will switch itself off.
▯ If cookware has been placed on the cooking zone
before you turn on the cooktop, it will be detected
within 20 seconds after you have touched the main
switch and the cooking zone will be selected
automatically. Once detected, set the power level
within the next 20 seconds, otherwise the cooking
zone will turn off.
Even if there are several pots and pans on the cooktop
when it is switched on, only one piece of cookware is
detected.
Recommendations for cooking
▯ Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating ; for delicate
dishes like milk, pudding, rice pudding or cereals heat
up with setting 8 - 8.5.
▯ When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting
down as soon as steam escapes between the lid and
the cookware. Steam does not need to escape for a
good cooking result.
▯ After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until you
serve the food.
▯ To cook with a pressure cooker, observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
▯ Do not cook food for too long, otherwise more
nutrients than necessary will be lost. The kitchen timer
can be used to set the optimum cooking time.
▯ For a healthier cooking result, smoking oil should be
avoided.
▯ To brown food, fry small portions in succession.
▯ Cookware may reach high temperatures while the food
is cooking. We recommend that you use oven mits.
▯ You can find recommendations for energy-efficient
cooking in section ~ "Protecting the environment"
Settings table
The following table provides some examples. Cooking
times may vary depending on the type of food, its weight
and quality. Deviations are therefore possible.
Note: During cooking, stews or liquid meals such as
soups, sauces or drinks can heat up too quickly
unnoticed and overflow or spatter. For this reason we
recommend that you stir continuously, gradually heating
the food at a suitable power level.
