Each cooking zone is equipped with a heat accelerator.
This system allows the user to select the main power level required for cooking. By making this choice the hob will also automatically start with a full power boost followed by your chosen power. Eg by selecting level 3 you will automatically begin on full power for 3.8 minutes and then reduce to level 3 without any physical adjustment. This function is useful for cocking vegetables or to bring the pan to the boil and then reduce to a simmer automatically.
See table for details.

You now have 3 seconds to choose the desired heating position.
