Using the Auto Heat-reduce feature

This feature is available on all the cooking zones

Turn the control dial anti-clockwise to the ‘A’ setting and then release the dial (after the ‘beep’); the symbol lights up on the corresponding cooking zone display. Within 5 seconds turn the dial to the desired power level (between 1 and 9); once a setting has been selected, and the chosen power level will flash in alternation on the control panel display.

This feature allows the cooking zone to operate at the maximum power (100%) for a time proportional to the selected power level; after this time the cooking zone will operate at the selected level.

While this feature is operating it is possible, at any time, to increase the selected power level but it is not possible to decrease the power.

The Auto Heat-reduce feature can be disabled by turning the dial anti-clockwise to a lower power level, turning the dial to the ‘0’ (Off) position or by selecting the PowerBoost feature.

Note: If removing the pan from the cooking zone before the programme has been completed, the Auto Heat-reduce feature will be completed with the remaining time if the pan is put back on the cooking zone within 10 minutes.

Using the PowerBoost feature

This feature is available on the front left/rear right zones only.

Turn the control dial clockwise to set the maximum power level (9), then turn clockwise again to

the setting and release the dial (after the ‘beep’); the control dial returns to the maximum

setting (9) automatically and the symbol lights up on the corresponding cooking zone display. The PowerBoost feature is now on.

This feature allows the cooking zone to operate at the PowerBoost maximum power (above the rated power) for a maximum of 5 minutes; it could be used, for example, to rapidly heat up

alarge amount of water. After 5 minutes the P will flash for a few seconds and then the power level will automatically drop to level 9.

The PowerBoost feature can be disabled by turning the dial anti-clockwise to a lower power

level, turning the dial to the ‘0’ (Off) position or by turning the dial again to the setting; in this case the cooking zone operates at the power level 9.

Note: if a cooking zone is still hot, it is not possible to use the PowerBoost feature and will flash if you try to activate it. The cooking zone is automatically set to the maximum power level (9).

The PowerBoost feature is always limited to a maximum of 10 minutes. You can activate the PowerBoost feature again after 5 minutes.

Important!

The PowerBoost feature is not suitable for use with non water based cooking.

Do not use this function for heating oil (e.g. deep fat frying). The power density may be too high and it could damage the cookware.
