Operating Instructions
General information
The cooking surface is made of proven ceramic glass
and consists of 4 cooking zones. The rapid glowing
cooking zones are especially efficient radiant heating
elements which will considerably reduce the duration
of heating--up.
The cooking surfaceis pore--free and also insensitive to rapid changes in temperature. Pots can
therefore be moved from a hot to cold zone.
When switching on a cookingzone you may hear
ashortbuzz.Thatisacharacteristicofall ceramic
glasscookingzonesanddoesnotimpairthefunction or the lifetime of the appliance.
Always put pots and pans onto the cooking zone
before switching on.
Heat Control Knobs
The control knobs regulate the heatingcapacity of the
cooking zones.
The control knobs for the cooking zone can be turned
to the left and to the right to the desired position.
1 = minimum setting
12 = maximum setting.
Setting it back to „O“ turns off the cooking zone.
Always put pans or pots on the cooking zones, before
switching on.
Residual heat indicator
Eachcookingzone is relatedtooneindicator. Thewarninglamp lights up when the surface of thecorrespondingcookingzone reachesa temperature which could
cause burns.
This light remains lit after the relevant zone has been
switchedoff as long as the residual heat of the correspondingcookingsurfacecancauseburns.The lightwill
go out when the temperature falls below 60oC.

Cooking and frying utensils
Thebetterthepot or thepan,thebetter theboiling
or frying result.
. You can recognise good quality pans by their
base.Thebaseshouldbe thickandasflataspossible.
. Rough bases (i.e. burrs and sharp edges) will
scratch the ceramic glass surface.
. Utensils with aluminium and copper bases can
leave behind metallic discolourations which can
only be removed with difficulty or sometimes not
at all.
. Saucepans and frying pans should not be smaller
than the cooking zone, and preferably not more
than 10--15 mm larger than the diameter of the
cooking zone.
. When cold, pan bases normally curve slightly
inwards (are concave). In no case should they
curve outwards (be convex).

. When buying new pots or pans pay attention to
the base diameter. Manufacturers often state the
upper diameter of the edge of a dish.
. If you are using special cooking utensils like pres-
manufacturer. Ensure theyare recommendedfor
use on ceramic hobs.
General hints
. The bases should always be clean and dry.
. To avoid scratching or damaging the ceramic
glasssurface,potsandpansshouldbemovedon
the hob by lifting them, and not by sliding.
. Scratches can also be caused by grains of sand
(e.g. originating from the previous washing of
vegetables), drawnover the cookingsurfacewith
the pan, or by burrs and the rims of pan bases.
. Use high sided pans for dishes with a lot of liquid,
so that nothing boils over.

Energy consumption
To save energy, you should:
. place pots and pans in position before switching
on the cooking zone.
. use only cooking and frying utensils with smooth,
flat bases.
Page 9
9
. wherever possible, cover pots and pans with a lid.
. never place pots or pans on cooking zones with
a larger diameter.
. wet or dirty cooking zones and pots will waste
energy.
. switch off the cooking zone a few minutes before
the end of the cooking time, in orderto make use
of the residual heat.

. When using pressure cookers you can reducethe
cooking time by up to 50%. As well as saving
energy, more vitamins and minerals are retained
in the food.
