Dial

The cooktop uses an mTwisT magnetic dial to select the desired heat setting. The mTwisT dial is held onto the cooktop by a strong magnet and automatically positions itself in the center of the dial location when placed on the cooktop.

Note: If the dial is removed from the cooktop when in use, all elements will be turned off after 10 seconds. The cooktop is locked and the Panel Lock light comes on. (See Setting Panel Lock on Page 11.)

Cooktop Features

If you have the Bosch HES24 Range, the mTwisT Cooktop has two (2) single elements (small and medium) and two (2) double elements. The Bosch HES25 Range has two (2) single elements, one (1) double element and one (1) triple element. The mTwisT dial is a magnetic removable dial, which allows for easy cleaning of the smooth Ceran cooktop.

Hot Surface Indicator Light

Each element features a hot indicator light to show when the cooking surface is too hot to touch. A letter H will appear above the element touch pad.

The light remains on until the cooking area has cooled to a safe-to-touch temperature.

If a hot surface light is on, use caution when working or cleaning around the cooktop as the cooktop is still hot.

Keep Warm

Each element has a keep warm setting to keep hot, cooked foods at serving temperatures.

To set Keep Warm feature:

1.Touch element pad for desired element.

2.Touch KEEP WARM pad. L is displayed above selected element and element comes on.

Keep Warm Guidelines

Use pans/utensils with flat bases. Plates and casseroles with shallow ridges around the base can be used provided they are made of heat-safe materials.

Keep dish covered to keep foods hot. Avoid paper or plastic.

Choose pans and cookware that may be safely used on a hot surface. Example: Use CorningWare® "Safe for Rangetop" rather than Pyrex® which is not recommended for cooktop use.

Use a trivet or steamer inside a pan when necessary to raise food off bottom of pan.
