The cooking assistance functions make cooking easy
and always give you excellent results. The
recommended temperature settings are suitable for any
type of cooking.
They enable you to cook without using excessive heat
and promise the perfect cooking and frying results.
Sensors measure the heat of the saucepan or frying
pan throughout the cooking process. This ensures that
the power is continuously controlled and that the right
temperature is maintained.
Food can be added once the selected temperature has
been reached. Food will not be overheated and liquids
will not boil over.
The hotplates that have a frying sensor are marked with
the frying sensor symbol.
The cooking functions are available to all hotplates if a
wireless temperature sensor is connected.

Cooking assistant function types
You can use the cooking assistance functions to select
the best cooking type for each kind of food.
The table shows the various different settings that are
available for the cooking assistant functions:
Suitable cookware
Select the hotplate the diameter of which most closely
matches that of the base of the cookware and place the
cookware in the centre of this hotplate.
The cooking functions are not suitable for frying food in
a pan like you can with the frying sensor.
There are frying pans that are perfect for using with the
frying sensor. These can be purchased from specialist
retailers or through our technical after-sales service.
Always quote the relevant reference number:

HEZ390210 15 cm frying pan.
■
HEZ390220 19 cm frying pan.
■
HEZ390230 21 cm frying pan.
These frying pans have a non-stick coating so that you
can fry food with a small amount of oil.
Notes

The frying sensor has been configured specifically
for this type and size of frying pan.
■
Using a frying pan of a different size or one that is
poorly positioned on the flexible cooking zones may
result in the frying sensor not being activated. See

Other types of frying pan may overheat and reach a
temperature above or below the selected heat

change it if necessary.
