glass surface or a cold pot on the “hot” Ceran® glass surface, otherwise the Ceran® glass surface
could crack due to thermal stresses.
Even a seemingly light object such as a salt cellar can cause cracks or breaks in the Ceran
surface in the worst case scenario. Prevent objects from falling onto the Ceran® glass surface.
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic containers on the Ceran
damage.

7.6.2 Overview of functions of the K | POT induction
7.6.3 Pot detection (induction)
The heat setting of a cooking zone can be selected without any cookware present.
The power is generally only released by the control when suitable cookware is detected on the
cooking zone. Make sure that you use suitable cookware.
If no pot is detected, the appliance control switches the cooking zone off after 10 minutes.
The cooking zone can only be switched on again when the power regulator has been turned
back to the "0" position.
Minimum pot diameter: 120 mm
7.6.4 Power settings
Power settings 1 to 9 enable any type of food preparation, from gently keeping warm and
regeneration to grilling.
7.6.5 Melting and keep-warm function
# Melting function
The purpose of the melting function is to regulate the base of the pot to give a temperature of
around 45°C /42°C in the pot. This allows food to be melted in an energy-optimised manner.
The melting function is setting 1, which is reached by turning the power regulator to the right
from the zero position.
The maximum period of time is limited to 2 hours. Switches to OFF automatically.
# Keep-warm function
The purpose of the keep-warm function is to regulate the base of the pot to give a temperature of
around 70°C /65°C in the pot. This allows food to be kept warm in an energy-optimised manner or
gently warmed.
The keep-warm function is setting 2, which is reached by turning the power regulator to the
right from the zero position.
The maximum period of time is limited to 2 hours. Switches to OFF automatically.

7.6.6 Automatic preheating
The purpose of the automatic preheating is to trigger the following heat setting.
This function is activated by fully turning the power regulator to the left with a holding time
of at least 2 seconds. A heat setting must be selected on the power regulator within 10
seconds, the so-called continuous cooking setting.
If heat settings 0, 1, 2, 9 are selected or if the power regulator is turned all the way to the
left/right, then the automatic preheating is not activated.
7.6.7 Boost function
With the boost function you can set a time limit, a maximum of 10 minutes, for operating a
cooking zone at maximum power.
If both hobs are selected in the booster function, then the last selection takes priority. The other
cooking zone is automatically reduced to half power. The maximum possible power of the
appliance is constant.
To activate this function, turn the power regulator to setting 8, then to setting 9 as far as the stop.
Then set the power regulator to setting 8.
Use
To deactivate the function, turn the power regulator anticlockwise to a setting below 8.
▌ After 10 minutes the function switches off automatically.
7.6.8 Bridging function
On the induction hob, two defined cooking zones can be "bridged". These can be controlled as
if they were "one" cooking zone.
The left cooking zone is the main cooking zone. The right cooking zone is the additional
cooking zone.
The power regulator of both cooking zones must be turned all the way to the right
simultaneously. Minimum holding time 2 seconds. The power regulator of the additional
cooking zone must then be set to heat setting 9.
7.6.9 Automatic shut-off (operating time limitation OTL)
Depending on the heat setting selected for each cooking zone, a maximum permissible
operating time (without any changes in heat setting) is defined.
If this maximum time limit is exceeded, the respective cooking zone is switched off.
The cooking zone can only be restarted after resetting ("zero setting") the power regulator.
The time remaining until automatic shut-off is reset to the initial value after each new operation
of the cooking zone.
