Booster function
Each cooking zone has a Booster
function.
When activated, the zones will operate
on power setting 9 with an extra boost
of power for a period of 10 minutes.
This boost is intended for quickly
bringing large quantities of water to the
boil, e.g. when cooking pasta.
The Booster function can only be used
on two cooking zones at the same time,
one on the left and one on the right.
If the Booster function is switched on
when
– no setting has been selected, the
cooking zone will revert automatically
to power setting 9 at the end of the
Booster time or if the Booster
function is switched off before this.
– a setting has been selected, the
cooking zone will revert automatically
to the setting selected at the end of
the Booster time or if the Booster
function is switched off before this.
Taking a pan off the zone whilst the
Booster is in operation interrupts the
Booster function. It will resume if a pan
is placed back on the zone within 3
minutes.
The extra boost of energy is only
available by taking a proportion of
energy away from another cooking
zone. For this reason, the cooking
zones are networked in pairs as shown.
When the booster is switched on, the
following happens:
–
if Auto heat-up is activated on either
zone in the same network, this will be
switched off.
– the power level on the other linked
cooking zone will sometimes
decrease.
