Switching on

Press down the control knob and turn it left or right
to the required position (1 -12). The luminous disc
behind the control knob and the indicator light on
the display panel light up, as long as the cooking
zone is switched on.
During operation, a noise may be heard depending
on the material of the pot, the amount of the
contents and the selected cooking level. This is
normal. The cooling fan of the induction unit may go
on and off during operation. 

Switching off

Fully turn the control knob to the OFF position. 
The luminous disc goes off.
Please note: the induction cooking zone does not
emit any warmth after being switched off.

Indicator light

The indicator light on the display panel lights, as
long as the cooking zone is switched on.  

Pot recognition

The indicator light on the display panel flashes and
the cooking zone does not operate, if no pan or an
unsuitable receptacle (too small, non-magnetic) has
been placed on the cooking zone.

Residual heat display

Although induction-cooking plates do not reach the
same high temperatures as traditional cooking 
plates, they can remain hot after cooking when
used over long periods of time through contact with
the heated receptacle. This is why the hob has a 
residual heat display. After switching off the 
indicator light will flash, as long as the cooking 
zone has not cooled down sufficiently to be touched
safely. 

Note: 

the duration of the residual heat display is

based on the length of the operation and the 
cooking power level. The residual heat display may
still flash for some time despite cooling down, 
depending on the food and the size of the cooking
receptacle.
