Combination cooking zone

The single and dual-circuit hotplate can be operated 

without the bridge heating element independently of 

each other or combined with the bridge heating 

element as described in the table.

The small roasting zone (1 + 3) and the single-circuit 

hotplate (2) can also be operated independently of 

each other with different heat settings. Different 

temperature ranges are therefore generated at the large 

roaster, the teppan yaki or the grill plate, for example: 

the small roasting zone can then be used to fry a meal 

and the single-circuit hotplate can simultaneously be 

used to keep a meal warm.

Note: 

Suitable cookware is available from the after-

sales service or our e-Shop.

Residual heat indicator

The hob has a two-stage residual heat indicator for 

each hotplate.
If 

•

 appears in the display the hob is still hot. It may be 

used, for example, to keep a small meal warm or to 

melt cooking chocolate. As the hotplate cools down 

further, the display changes to 

œ

. The display remains lit 

until the hotplate has cooled sufficiently.
