HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

i INDUCTION COOKING ZONES

For induction cooking zones a strong electro-magnetic field creates the heat in the cookware very quickly.

Cookware for induction cooking zones

Important! Use the induction cooking zones with correct cookware.

Cookware material

• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless steel, the bottom made of multi-layer (with correct mark from a manufacturer).
  not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.

The Timer stays on.

To stop this function touch 品 . The heat setting that you set before comes on.

When you stop the appliance, you also stop this function.

The Child Safety Device

This function prevents an accidental operation of the appliance.

To activate The Child Safety Device

• Activate the appliance with ①. Do not set the heat settings.
• Touch for 4 seconds. The symbol comes on.
• Deactivate the appliance with ① .

To deactivate The Child Safety Device

• Activate the appliance with ①. Do not set the heat settings. Touch ② for 4 seconds. The symbol ③ comes on.
• Deactivate the appliance with ① .

To override The Child Safety Device for only one cooking time

• Activate the appliance with ①. The symbol L comes on.
• Touch for 4 seconds. Set the heat setting in 10 seconds. You can operate the appliance.
• When you deactivate the appliance with ① , The Child Safety Device operates again.

Cookware is correct for an induction hob if ...

... some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting..
- ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.

The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and flat as possible.

The noises during operation

If you can hear

• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use one or more cooking zones with high power levels and

the cookware is made of different materials (Sandwich construction).

• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.

The noises are normal and do not refer to appliance malfunction.

Energy saving

How to save energy

• If it is possible, always put the lids on the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food warm or to melt it.

The cooking zone efficiency

The cooking zone efficiency is related to the diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a smaller diameter than the minimum receives only a part of the power generated by the cooking zone. For the minimum di

ameters see the Technical Information chapter.

Öko Timer (Eco Timer)

To save energy, the heater of the cooking zone deactivates before the count down timer sounds. The difference in the operation time depends on the heat setting level and the length of the cooking operation.

The Examples of cooking applications

The relation between the heat setting and the cooking zone consumption of power is not linear.

When you increase the heat setting it is not proportional to the increase of the cooking zone consumption of power.

It means that the cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses less than a half of its power.

The data in the table is for guidance only.

Heat setting	Use to: Time Hints	Nominal		power consumption
1	Keep warm the food you cooked	as required Put a lid on a cookware 3 %
1 - 2 Hollandaise sauce, melt: butter, chocolate, gelatine		5 - 25 min Mix from time to time 3 - 5 %
1 - 2 Solidify: fluffy omelettes, baked eggs		10 - 40 min Cook with a lid on 3 - 5 %
2 - 3 Simmer rice and milkbased dishes, heating up ready-cooked meals		25 - 50 min Add	the minimum twice as much liquid as rice, mix milk dishes part procedure through	5 - 10 %
3 - 4 Steam vegetables, fish, meat		20 - 45 min Add	some tablespoons of liquid	10 - 15 %
4 - 5	Steam potatoes	20 - 60 min	Use max. ¼ l water for 750 g of potatoes	15 - 21 %
4 - 5	Cook larger quantities of food, stews and soups	60 - 150 min Up	to 3 l liquid plus ingredients	15 - 21 %
6 - 7 Gentle fry: escalope, veal cordon bleu, cutlets, ris-soes, sausages, liver, roux, eggs, pancakes, doughnuts		as necessary	Turn halfway through	31 - 45 %
7 - 8 Heavy fry, hash browns, loin steaks, steaks		5 - 15 min	Turn halfway through	45 - 64 %
9	Boil water, cook pasta, sear meat (goulash, pot roast), deep-fry chips			100 %
P	Boil large quantities of water. Power management is activated.
