Operation

Cooking Zones

The hob has 4 ceramic cooking zones. All 4 cooking zones feature variable settings which are represented by numbered graduations on each control knob.

Heat Control Knobs

The control knobs enable the regulation from 1-9 of the heating capacity. The control knobs can be turned both to the left and to the right. Setting it back to "0" turns off the cooking zone.

Halogen Cooking Zone

The halogen cooking zone is heated up very rapidly compared to the normal one-circuit cooking zone. It can be compared with a gas cooking zone.

Use the halogen heating zone to heat up food quickly.

Residual Heat Indicator

All cooking zones are related to one indicator. The war- ning light illuminates when the surface of any cooking zone reaches a temperature which could cause a burn. The light will remains illuminated, after the heated-up area has been switched off, as long as the residual heat of the cooking surface can cause burns. The light will go out when the temperature is below 50°C.
