Safety cut-out
Cooking surface
• If after switching on the cooking surface, a heat
setting is not set for a cooking zone within approx.
10 seconds, the cooking surface automatically
switches itself off.
• If one or more sensor fields are covered by objects
(a pan, cloths, etc.) for longer than approx. 10 seconds, a signal sounds and the cooking surface
switches off automatically.
• If all cooking zones are switched off, the cooking
surface automatically switches itself off after approx. 10 seconds.
Control panel
• When the appliance is switched off, if one or more
of the sensor fields on the control panel are covered for more that 10 seconds, an acoustic signal
sounds. The acoustic signal switches itself off automatically when the sensor fields are no longer
covered.
Cooking zones
• If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after
a certain time, or if the heat setting is not modified,
the relevant cooking zone switches off automatically.
According to the latest scientific knowledge,
intensive browning of food, especially in products containing starch, can constitute a health
risk due to acrylamides. Therefore we recommend cooking at the lowest possible temperatures and not browning foods too much.
Cookware
• You can recognise good cookware from the bottoms of the pans. The bottom should be as thick
and flat as possible.
• Cookware made of enamelled steel or with aluminium or copper bottoms can leave discolorations on
the glass ceramic surface which are difficult or impossible to remove.
Energy saving
2 Always place cookware on the cooking zone
before it is switched on.
2 If possible, always place lids on the pans.
2 Switch cooking zones off before the end of the
cooking time, to take advantage of residual
heat.
2 Bottom of pans and cooking zones should be
the same size.
