EN The key features of your appliance
•Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic glass cooking surface and four rapid - response cooking zones. The hob’s powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the amount of time required for the zones to heat up.
•Touch control sensors: Your appliance is operated using touch control sensors.
•Easy cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and the control sensors is their accessibility for cleaning. The smooth, flat surface is easy to clean.
•On / Off sensor: The “On / Off” control sensor provides the appliance with a separate mains switch. Touching this sensor switches the power supply on or off completely.
•Control and function indicators: Digital displays and indicator lights provide information about settings and activated functions, as well as the presence of residual heat in the various cooking zones.
•Safety shutoff: A safety shutoff ensures that all cooking zones switch off automatically after a period of time if the setting has not been changed.
•Residual heat indicator: An icon for residual heat appears in the display if the cooking zone is so hot that there is a risk of burning.
•Double cooking zone: The cooking surface features a double cooking zone. This provides the appliance with a cooking zone of variable size, for instance, for when cooking with smaller cookware. This allows savings in energy.
•Multipurpose cooking zone: The hob is equipped with a multipurpose / casserole cooking zone. Depending on the setting, it can be used as a round or oval cooking zone, for example, for when cooking with oval casseroles or for keeping dishes or food warm.
