Hotplate and residual heat indicators
The hotplate and residual heat indicators e light up when a
hotplate is warm:
■ Hotplate indicator - during operation, shortly after you have
switched on a hotplate.
■ Residual heat indicator - after cooking, when the hotplate is
still warm.
You can use the residual heat to save energy, e.g. to keep a
small dish warm or to melt chocolate.
Setting the hob
This section informs you how to set the hotplates. The table
shows heat settings and cooking times for various meals.
Switching the hob on and off
You can switch the hob on and off with the hotplate controls.
Setting a hotplate
Adjust the heat setting of the hotplates using the hotplate
controls.
Heat setting 1 = lowest setting
Heat setting 9 = highest setting
The symbol in the display panel indicates the hotplate to which
the display relates, e.g.
Š for the right rear hotplate.
Note: Hotplate temperature is regulated by the heat switching
on and off. The heat may also switch on and off at the highest
setting.
Table of cooking times
The following table provides some examples.
Cooking times and heat settings may vary depending on the
type of food, its weight and quality. Deviations are therefore
possible.
When heating thick liquids, stir regularly.
For bringing liquids to the boil, use heat setting 9.
