Operation

Booster function

The cooking zones are equipped with a Booster or

TwinBooster (see "Guide to the appliance").

When activated, the power is boosted for 15 minutes so that large quantities can be heated quickly, e.g. when boiling water for cooking pasta.

The Booster function can only be used on two cooking zones at the same time, one on the left and one on the right.

If the Booster function is switched on when

no setting has been selected, the cooking zone will revert automatically to setting 9 at the end of the Booster time or if the Booster function is switched off before this.

a setting has been selected, the cooking zone will revert automatically to the setting selected at the end of the Booster time or if the Booster function is switched off before this.

Taking a pan off the zone whilst the Booster is in operation interrupts the Booster function. It will resume if a pan is placed back on the zone within 3 minutes.

The extra boost of energy is only available by taking a proportion of energy away from another cooking zone. For this reason, the cooking zones are networked in pairs. Example:

When selecting the Booster/TwinBooster level 1 for a zone, the following happens within the pairs:

If Auto heat-up is activated on the other zone within the pair, this will be switched off.

If the other zone within the pair is set at power level 9, the power level on that zone will be reduced.

If TwinBooster level 2 is selected, the other zone within the networked pair will be switched off.
