Cooking functions
You can use these functions to heat, simmer or cook
food, or cook it in a pressure cooker or fry it in a
saucepan with sufficient oil at a controlled temperature.
These cooking functions are available for all hotplates.
Benefits
■ The cooking zone only continues heating for as long
as this is necessary to maintain the temperature.
This saves energy and prevents oil or fat from
overheating.
■ The temperature is continuously monitored. This
prevents the food from spilling over. In addition, the
temperature setting does not need to be changed.
■ A signal sounds once the water or oil has reached
the optimum temperature for adding the food. The
table shows if the food needs to be added right at
the start.
Notes
■ Use pots and pans with a thick, flat base. Do not use
pots and pans with a thin or domed base.
■ Fill the pot so that the contents reach high enough to
cover the cooking sensor's silicone patch.
■ Use the frying sensor when frying with a small
amount of oil.
■ Position the cookware in such a way that the
cooking sensor is pointing towards the outer side of
the hob.
■ Do not remove the cooking sensor from the pot
during cooking.
■ Remove the cooking sensor from the pot after
cooking. Be careful as the cooking sensor may be
very hot.
