Tips for saving energy

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.

Induction cooking

▯ 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

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.

Chef's recommendations

Recommendations

▯ When heating up puree, cream soups and thick

sauces, stir occasionally.

▯ Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating.

▯ When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting

down as soon as steam escapes between the lid and the cookware. Steam does not need to escape for a good cooking result.

▯ After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until

you serve the food.

▯ To cook with the pressure cooker, observe the

manufacturer's instructions.

▯ Do not cook food for too long, otherwise the

nutrients will be lost. The kitchen clock can be used to set the optimum cooking time.

▯ For a more healthy cooking result, smoking oil

should be avoided.

▯ To brown food, fry small portions in succession.

▯ Cookware may reach high temperatures while the

food is cooking. We recommend that you use oven gloves.

▯ You can find recommendations for energy-efficient

cooking in section ~ "Environmental protection"

en Dynamic cooking

Dynamic cooking

Use this special function in particular for cooking processes that require the power levels to be changed frequently. This allows you to change the power level quickly and easily during cooking simply by moving the cookware forwards or backwards.

Activating this function turns the entire cooking surface into a single cooking area with three different power levels. The appliance selects which of the default power levels to use depending on the position of the cookware. The power level that is assigned to each item of cookware appears in the relevant cooking position display.

Activation

1 Touch the g symbol. 2 Touch the Ë symbol followed by the G symbol to

confirm your choice. The three default power levels are displayed on the main screen.

This function has now been activated.

Set down the cookware

If active cookware is on the cooking position before you activate the function, the cooking position display appears without a power level. To confirm the power level that is assigned, tap on the cooking position display and then touch the sensor field G.

If new cookware is placed on the cooking position, tap the cooking position display and then touch the sensor field G.

Note: If the size of the cookware is not suitable for this function, the Õ symbol will light up on the cooking position. Touch the Õ symbol for information. To return to the main screen, touch the G symbol.

Default power levels:

Front section = power level

ê.ó

Middle section = power level î.ó

Rear section = power level ò.ó

You can change the default power levels. To change the power levels, see the section entitled ~ "Basic

settings"

Notes

– The booster function for saucepans and frying pans

and the keep-warm function are not available while dynamic cooking mode is active.

– While dynamic cooking mode is active, the different

cookware modes will not be available and you will not be able to set the cooking time.

– If cookware is moved over the cooking surface, the

hob will automatically start searching and the heat setting of the area on which the cookware has been detected will be set.

– For more information on the size and positioning of

the cookware, see the section entitled ~ "Induction cooking".

Changing the heat setting

You can change the power levels while you are cooking. To choose a different power level in the programming area, touch the area you want to change the power level of.

Note: If the function is deactivated, the power levels will return to the default values
