All cooking zones have a pan recognition function. This means the cooking
zone will recognize whether a saucepan has been put on the cooking zone or
not.
The dual-circuit zone can also detect the saucepan size (see “The automatic
pan size sensor of the dual circuit zone/frying zone” at the next page).
If a suitable pan is put on the cooking zone, “U” is
indicated by the display.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is put on the cook-
ing zone, an underlined “U” is indicated.
If the cooking zone is on and there is no pan or
pot on it, the cooking zone automatically switches
itself off after 1 minute. This means you must
switch on the cooking zone to cook again, which
reactivates the pan recognition!
Deactivate the pan recognition function
F
When glass pans or other pans that are unsuitable for use with the
saucepan sensor are used, you must deactivate the pan recognition func-
tion. This must be done for each and every cooking zone.
– Press the plus and minus
sensor at the same time be-
fore selecting the cooking
setting.
A circle will appear in the display next to the
selected cooking setting.
IIf this circle lights us, there is a defect in
the pan recognition function. However, you
can continue to use the cooking zone.
The automatic pan size sensor of the dual
circuit zone/frying zone
If the pan recognition function is activated, the dual circuit zone has a sensor
to detect the size of the pan being used.
When a small pan is placed on the cooking zone, only the inner ring will switch
on. If the entire zone is covered by the pan, both rings will switch on.
Please note that the outer ring must always be completely covered, even if
you are using pans with a rounded base.
Moving the pan during cooking can cause the outer ring to switch off if it
hasn’t been completely covered.
Time limit function
The appliance is equipped with an automatic time limit function. This function
makes sure that the appliance isn’t in operation for an extended period of time.
The time period of the time limit depends on the selected cooking setting, i.e.
The higher the selected cooking setting, the faster the appliance is switched
off.
The function to limit operation time works separately for each cooking zone..
