The Key Features of Your Appliance
• Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic glass
cooking surface and 4 rapid response cooking zones. The particularly
powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the amount of
time taken for the zones to heat up.
• Sensor fields: Your appliance is operated using TOUCH CONTROL
sensor fields.
• Cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and
the sensor fields is their accessibility for cleaning. The flat surface is
easy to clean (see section: “Cleaning and Care”)
• On/Off sensor field: In addition to the sensor field “On/Off” switch,
the appliance has a separate mains switch with which the mains sup-
ply to the appliance can be completely switched on and off with one
touch.
• Stop+Go sensor field: Touching this sensor field changes all cooking
zones currently in use to the ”keep warm“ function: touching the
field again restores the zones to their former settings. This function
can be useful in certain situations, for example if you are suddenly
called away from the cooker.
• Displays: Digital displays show information about selected heat set-
tings, functions activated and any possible residual heat in the appro-
priate cooking zone.
• Safety cut-out: A safety cut-out ensures that all cooking zones
switch off automatically after a period of time if the setting has not
been changed.
• Keep Warm:
V this setting is used for keeping food warm.
• Residual heat indicator: An h for residual heat is shown in the dis-
play if the cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burn-
ing.
• Multipurpose cooking zone: The hob is equipped with a multipur-
pose/casserole cooking zone. Depending on the setting, it can be used
as a round or oval cooking zone, e.g. for oval casseroles or for keeping
dishes or food warm.
• Three-size cooking ring: The hob features a triple-ring cooking
zone. This zone can be set to different sizes, for example to fit smaller
pots. This will save power.
• Timer: All rings can be automatically switched off using the inte-
grated timer. When the end of the cooking time has been reached,
the cooking zone switches off.
