8.9 Quick start cooking
Using this function, cooking starts at level 9 then is automatically reduced (levels 1 to 8) after a
determined period of time. When the quick start cooking function is activated, the power level also
needs to be set for the normal cooking period which will be selected automatically by the electronics.
Quick start cooking is suitable for foods that need to heat up quickly from cold and which can then
continue to cook without needing to be continually monitored (e.g. boiled meat).
1. Switch on a cooking zone. The function light should come on for the selected zone. If necessary,
activate the Selection/Increase button .
2. Set power level 9. Press the Selection/Increase button again to activate the quick start
cooking function. The power level indicator alternately shows the letter A and the number 9.
3. Then select a lower power level for the normal cooking process (1-8) by pressing the button .
The A and the selected power for the normal cooking flash intermittently.
4. This means that quick start cooking is operating correctly and, after a determined period of time
(see table), cooking will continue at the preset power level.
