Residual heat indicator
The hob also features 5 warning lights
which are connected to the correspond-
ing plates.
When the temperature of a cooking
plate is above 60°C, the relevant warn-
ing light will also light up to warn of
heat on the surface of the hob.
This light also stay on after the cooking
plate has been switched off to show
that the hob surface is still hot.
This residual heat will lasts for a long
time after the cooking plate has been
switched off.
During this time you should avoid
touching the hob surface over the
cooking area.
Please pay special attention to
e n s u re t h a t c h i l d re n a re n o t
allowed near the hob.
The light will switch off automatically as
soon as the surface temperature of the
cooking plate falls below 60°C.
Cooking hints:
– To reduce the cooking time, you can
turn the control knob to the max when
you switch the plate on.
After a short time you can set the con-
trol knob to the position required for
cooking.
– You should only use pots and pans
with flat bases (pans with the test mark
for glass-ceramic hobs are available
from specialist shops).
The diameter of the pan should match
that of the cooking plate (or be slightly
bigger) to make the most of the energy.
– Since the cooking surface will stays hot
for a certain time after the plate has
been switched off, you can switch it off
5 or 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking.
The residual heat of the hob will com-
plete the cooking.
– To save electricity, use pan lids whenev-
er possible.
– Never cook the food directly on the
glass ceramic cooktop.
Caution!
the cooking hob becomes very
hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
