Tips for saving energy
f
Induction cooking
Induction cooking
Advantages of induction cooking
Induction cooking is fundamentally different from
traditional cooking methods, as heat builds up directly
in the item of cookware. This offers numerous
advantages:
▯Always use a matching lid with your cookware.
Cooking without a lid consumes significantly more
energy. Use a glass lid. This allows you to see into
the pan without removing the lid.
▯Use cookware with a flat base. Uneven bases
increase the energy consumption.
▯Always place items of cookware inside the usable
area of the cooking surface.
▯Use small pots and pans to cook small quantities.
Using cookware that is big but barely filled requires
a lot of energy.
▯Cook with as little water as possible. This saves
energy and preserves the vitamins and minerals in
vegetables.
▯Switch to a lower power level in good time. This
prevents energy from being wasted.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning
used electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic equipment WEEE). The guideline determines the
framework for the return and recycling of used
appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
The wireless cooking sensor is battery-powered.
Dispose of spent batteries in an environmentally
responsible manner.
▯Saves time when boiling and frying.
▯Energy savings.
▯Easier to care for and clean. Spilled food does not
burn on as quickly.
▯Heat control and safety – the hob increases or
decreases the heat supply as soon as the user
changes the setting. If the cookware is removed,
the induction cooking position immediately
interrupts the heat supply without it having been
switched off.
Cookware
Only use ferromagnetic cookware for induction cooking,
such as:
▯Cookware made from enamelled steel
▯Cookware made from cast iron
▯Special induction-compatible cookware made from
stainless steel.
To find out whether your cookware is suitable for
induction cooking, check whether a magnet is attracted
to the base of the item or refer to the manufacturer's
specifications.
Some induction cookware does not have a fully
ferromagnetic base:
▯If the base of the cookware is only partially
ferromagnetic, only the area that is ferromagnetic
will heat up. This may mean that heat will not be
distributed evenly. The non-ferromagnetic area may
not heat up to a sufficient temperature for cooking.
8
Page 9
Induction cooking
en
▯The ferromagnetic area will also be reduced if the
material from which the base of the cookware is
made contains aluminium, for example. This may
mean that the cookware will not become sufficiently
hot or even that it will not be detected.
Unsuitable pans
Never use diffuser hobs or pans made from:
▯common thin steel
▯glass
▯earthenware
▯copper
▯aluminium
Properties of the base of the cookware
The material(s) from which the base of the cookware is
made can affect the cooking result. Cookware made of
materials that distribute heat evenly, such as saucepans
with a stainless steel sandwich base, save time and
energy.
Cookware with a completely flat base works best. If the
base of the cookware is uneven or embossed, this will
reduce the heat supply.
Empty cookware or cookware with a thin base
Do not heat empty items of cookware and do not use
cookware that has a thin base. The hob is equipped with
an internal safety system. However, an empty item of
cookware can heat up so quickly that the automatic
switch-off function has no time to react and an
excessively high temperature is reached. This could melt
the base of the cookware and damage the glass plate. If
this happens, switch off the hob and do not touch the
cookware. If this no longer works once it has cooled
down, contact our technical after-sales service.
Pan detection
The hob uses the ferromagnetic diameter and material
of the base of the cookware to automatically detect the
position, size and shape of the cookware being used.
Cookware with a base measuring 90 to 340 mm in
diameter is suitable for use.
FP
FP
FP
Note: The cooking position displays may show a size
and shape that is different from the cookware actually
being used. This is normal and does not affect the
functioning of the hob. For more information, see the
section entitled ~ "Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQ)"
.
Cookware that has been removed or is of an
unsuitable size
Always place items of cookware inside the usable area
of the cooking surface. If the cookware is not positioned
correctly, is made of an unsuitable material or is not the
right size, the Õ symbol will appear next to the cooking
position display. Move the cookware or try again with a
different pot or pan.
If you lift the "active" cookware from the cooking surface
for more than 30 seconds, the cooking position
automatically switches off.

Cooking sensor mode
Cooking sensor mode
The cooking sensor processes make cooking easy and
guarantee exceptional results.
The wireless cooking sensor measures the temperature
of the cookware continuously. This allows cooking to be
precisely regulated and the temperature to be
maintained at the required level at all times in order to
prevent excessively vigorous boiling and to achieve
perfect cooking results.
You can add your food once the selected temperature
has been reached. The temperature is automatically
kept constant without you having to change the heat
setting.
Cooking sensor mode is available anywhere on the
cooking surface if you have a wireless cooking sensor.
The wireless cooking sensor forwards the temperature
of the cookware to the control panel.
The hob has a wireless cooking sensor. If required, this
can be purchased at a later point from specialist
retailers, or through our technical after-sales service or
our online shop. You can use up to three cooking
sensors at the same time.
Note: You can order it by specifying the reference
number CA060300.
For more information about the cooking sensor, see the

Benefits
▯The cooking position only emits heat when this is
necessary to maintain the temperature. This saves
energy.
▯The temperature is maintained continuously. This
prevents the food from boiling over. It also means
that you do not have to change the temperature
setting.
▯Cooking sensor mode will tell you when the water
or oil has reached the optimal temperature for
adding the food (see the exceptions where the food
should be added at the very beginning).
Notes
–Use pans with a thick, flat base.Do not use pans
with a thin or deformed base.
–Fill the pan so that the contents reach high enough
to cover the cooking sensor's silicone patch.
–Do not remove the cooking sensor from the
saucepan during cooking.
–Remove the cooking sensor from the saucepan
after cooking. Be careful as the cooking sensor may
be very hot.
Tips for cooking with cooking sensor
mode
▯Keeping warm/heating: Portions of frozen products,
e.g. spinach. Place the frozen product in the
cookware. Add the volume of water specified by the
manufacturer.Cover the cookware with a lid. Select
the temperature recommended in the table.
▯Poaching: This cooking method is suitable for
cooking food at low temperatures, thickening
sauces, reducing stews and cooking with milk.
Select the temperature recommended in the table
for the food you want to cook.
▯Boiling: This cooking method allows you to boil
water with a lid on without it boiling over. This
temperature control allows water to be boiled more
efficiently. Select the temperature recommended in
the table.
▯Cooking in a pressure cooker: Follow the
manufacturer's recommendations. After the signal
tone sounds, continue cooking for the
recommended time. Select the temperature
recommended in the table.
▯Deep-fat frying: It is recommended that you heat oil
with a lid on.Once the signal tone has sounded,
remove the lid and add the food. Select the
temperature recommended in the table for the food
you want to cook.
Notes
–Always cook with the lid on except when using the
"Deep-fat frying" function.
–If an audible signal does not sound, make sure
there is a lid on the pan.If there is a lid on the pan,
the appliance may have reached its maximum power
consumption or the Power management setting
may have been activated. This may affect the time
required to reach the selected temperature. Switch
off or reduce the temperature of the cooking
positions on which the other pans are placed. See
the section entitled ~ "Basic settings"
–Never leave oil unattended when it is being heated.
Use oil that is suitable for deep-fat frying. Do not
mix different cooking fats and oils – e.g. oil and lard
– as such mixtures may foam up when hot.
–If you are not satisfied with the cooking result, e.g.
when boiling potatoes, next time use more water but
keep the recommended temperature setting.
Setting the boiling point
The point at which water starts to boil depends on the
height of your home above sea level. If the water is
boiling too vigorously or not vigorously enough, you can
set the boiling point. Proceed as follows:
▯Touch the t button and select the basic setting
Cooking sensor calibration.
▯The basic setting is set to 200-400 m by default. If
your home is between 200 and 400 metres above
sea level, you do not need to set the boiling point. If
it is not, select the setting that matches your home's
height above sea level.
Note: A temperature setting of 100 ºC is sufficient for
efficient boiling, even if the water does not boil very
vigorously. However, the boiling point can be changed.
For example, you can set a lower altitude if you want the
water to boil more vigorously.
