indicator of the selected hotzone).
4. After the set time elapses, a sound signal is heard.
Note:
The delayed OFF function can be set for one selected hotzone only. To deactivate the delayed OFF function, set
the timer to the “00” value. If you switch off the hotzone manually before the delayed OFF time elapses, the setting of
the delayed OFF timer is reset.

Switch-off of the heating plate
a) Manual switch-off
Press the ON/OFF symbol (1). The entire heating plate switches off and its setting is reset. After the switch-off of the
heating plate, the displays of the hotzones remaining hot display the „H“ symbol (hot). Do not touch the hot hotzones;
there is a danger of burning!
b) Automatic switch-off
If you switch off all hotzones, the entire heating plate switches off automatically within 1 minute.
c) Safety switch-off
The cooking time on individual hotzones is limited to 8 hours for safety reasons (power level 1-3), 4 hours (power level
4-6) or 2 hours (power level 7-9).
Residual heat indicators
After the switching off of a hotzone the display shows the „H“ symbol (hot), which signals increased temperature of the
hotzone’s surface.
This signalling reduces the risk of burning on a switched off hotzone. The hot area can be energetically utilised.
Cooking Tips
Some examples of setting of input levels:
a) Level 1-3 is designed for
• keeping liquids simmering,
• moderate and slow heating without the risk of burning,
• melting of butter or chocolate,
• defrosting,
• boiling a small quantity of liquid.
b) Level 4-6 can be used for
• intensive boiling,

• keeping a larger quantity of liquid boiling,
• stewing.
c) Level 7-9 can be used for
• cooking food requiring fast heating and high temperature (beef steaks, schnitzels, fried potatoes etc.),
• heating food before switching over to a lower level.
Energy Saving Tips
• Flat bottom of utensil
Use pots and pans with thick flat bottoms. Uneven bottoms result in extension of the cooking time.
• Proper size of utensil
Use the proper size of the cooking utensil for each hotzone. The diameter of the bottom of a pot or pan should be
smaller than or the same as the hotzone size.
Note: Take into account that manufacturers often state the upper diameter of a cooking utensil, which is usually larger
than its bottom diameter.
• Adequate size of utensil
For small quantity of food use a little pot. Large and only partially filled pot needs too much energy.
• Covering by a lid
Always cover pots and pans with suitable lids. Cooking without a lid implies the consumption of much more energy.
• Cooking with a little quantity of water
Cook food with a little quantity of water. Thus you save energy. Vitamins and mineral matters will remain preserved
when cooking vegetables.
• Switching over to a lower power level
Switch over to a lower power level on time.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The heating plate itself does not warm up, so no remains of food can get burnt on it. For cleaning of the heating plate
you do not have to wait until it cools down.
Never use high-pressure cleaners or autoclaves for cleaning the heating plate.
Maintenance
For the care of the heating plate use a protective and preservation agent designed for glass-ceramic surfaces. It will
cover the heating plate with a protective layer which repels dirt and facilitates cleaning.
Cleaning of the heating plate
Clean the heating plate after each cooking session. It will prevent the remains of food from burning during the next
cooking session.
For the removal of food remains and the layer of grease use a glass scraper.
For cleaning the lukewarm heating plate use a cleaning agent and a paper towel. If the plate is cleaned while hot, stains
could appear on it.
Then wipe the plate with a damp cloth and wipe it dry using a soft cloth.
Cleaners
Use cleaners suitable for glass-ceramic surfaces, e.g. CERA, CLEN, Cera-fix, Sidol for ceran + steel.
Water stains can also be removed by means of lemon or vinegar.
