Power indicator light
(9)
The yellow power indicator light (9) is illumi-
nated as soon as at least one of the cooking
zones or the oven is switched on. It will switch
off again when
all
of the cooking zones
and
the oven are switched off.
Residual heat display
(5)
The residual heat display (5) will remain illu-
minated for as long as a cooking zone is still
warm. It warns you of any possible burning
and lets you know that you can still use re-
sidual heat to cook.
CAUTION!
Risk of burns!
If a power failure occurs, the residual
heat indicator will go out and may not
indicate the presence of residual heat!

Do not touch a hot cooking zone af-
ter a power failure.
Cooking and energy-saving tips
Settings
1)
Application and Examples
1
Gentle boiling / keeping warm, for
soaking rice
2-3
Boiling most dishes such as
soups and vegetables
4-5
Gentle roasting / intense further
cooking for breaded items
6-7
Normal roasting for roast pota-
toes
8
Intense frying for quick stir-frying
9
Searing and parboiling, for pota-
toes, braised meat
1)
For smaller quantities ½ level lower, for larg-
er quantities ½ level higher.
– To sear and parboil food, always select the
highest setting.
– Once the pot boils and steam forms or the
steak is brown on both sides, switch to a
lower level; for larger pots and pans use
the setting ‘2’, otherwise setting ‘1’ is suf-
ficient.
– Roasts weighing more than 1 kilogram are
best cooked in the oven.
– Use the right dishes and a little water/oil to
cook; this helps to preserve the vitamins.
– Use the residual heat of the cooking zones.
The heat is sufficient enough for 5 to
10 minutes, e.g. for soaking rice.
