Cookware Tips on using the cookware Use high-quality cookware with a flat and stable bottom. • Transmission of heat is best when the pan bottom and the cooking zone are of the same diameter, and the pan is placed on the middle of the cooking zone. • When using a tempered glass (Pyrex) or porcelain cookware, please follow the cookware manufacturer’s instructions. • When using a pressure cooker, do not leave it unattended until the desired pressure is reached.
Operating the cooking zones • The cooking hob is fitted with electronic sensor keys which are activated, respectively, when the indicated surface of a particular sensor is touched with a finger for at least one second. • Activation of a sensor key is confirmed by a beep. • Do not place any objects on the sensor key surface (this may trigger error reports). • Make sure the sensor key surface is always clean. Turning on the cooking hob • Touch the on/off sensor key (A) and hold it for at least one second.
Turning off the cooking zones • Select the cooking zone by pressing the relevant sensor key (H). The decimal point (F1) next to the display for the selected cooking zone will light up. • Press the “–” (I) sensor key to set the power level to “0”. • Quick power off: the power level can be instantly set to “0” by pressing the “+” (G) sensor key and “–” (I) sensor key simultaneously.
