This chapter explains how to set a hotplate. The table

meals.
Switching the hob on and off
The hob is turned on and off using the controls.
When the hob is switched on, the power level display
lights up.
Set the hotplate
Use the controls to set the desired power level.
0 = hotplate switched off.
Power level 1 = minimum power.
Power level 9 = maximum power.
Each power level has an intermediate setting. This is
marked with a dot.
Notes
■ To protect the fragile parts of your appliance from
overheating and electrical overloading, the hob may
temporarily reduce the power.
■ In order to prevent the appliance from producing
excess noise, the hob may temporarily reduce the
power.
Selecting a heat setting
Turn the knob on the control panel clockwise until you
reach the required heat setting.
This heat setting will light up in the display.
Switch off the hotplate
Turn the control to the left until reaching level 0. The
hotplate turns off and the residual heat indicator
appears.
Note: If no pan has been placed on the induction
hotplate, the selected power level flashes. After a
certain time, the hotplate switches off. Turn the control

Chef's recommendations
Recommendations
■ When heating up puree, cream soups and thick
sauces, stir occasionally.
■ Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating.
■ 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 the pressure cooker, observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
■ Do not cook food for too long, otherwise the
nutrients will be lost. The kitchen clock can be used
to set the optimum cooking time.
■ For a more healthy 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
gloves.
■ You can find recommendations for energy-efficient
cooking in section ~ "Environmental protection"
