The cooking plate always starts on temperature 120°C or power level 5 respectively. 8 Setting the power / temperature / turn-off time increase reduce 9 Display 10 Air inlet General information Cooking with induction technology When cooking with induction technology, heat is only generated by means of magnetic power, if a pot or pan with a magne- tisable base is placed on a switched-on cooking zone. The induction cooker heats only the base of the cooking utensils used, not the cooking zone itself. Under the glass-ceramics surface, the induction coil is located. If the coil is supplied with electrical power a magnetic eld develops generating whirls in the pot’s base. This results in the heating of the base material. The induction process saves energy as heat is solely produced where it is needed. What cooking utensils may I use? For induction cooking plates cookware made from magneti- sable material is needed. Today, cooking utensils appropriate for induction cooking usually bear a note saying Suitable for induction hob or similar. But principally you may use any iron-based cooking utensils; to nd out whether a pot or pan is suitable, i.e., magnetisable just try the following: Position the cookware. If several warning signals sound and if the message “– – –” appears, the cookware is unsuitable. NOTE: For safety reasons, the appliance will switch to standby mode after about 15 seconds. Cooking utensils made of the following materials are not suitable for induction hobs: Clay, glass or aluminium. Do not use the following types of pots : Pots with bended (convex/parabolic) bases. Pots with a base diameter of less than 12 cm. Pots standing on feet. Electrical Connection Connected load/wattage The hob can take up an overall load of 2000 W. Because of this high connected load it is recommended to use a separate connection protected over a 16 A safety switch.44 NOTE:

• The display shows the selected setting. The relevant indicator light next to the display will also light up.

• Please observe that the cooking behavior in the pots differs. It depends on the nature and the quality of the cooking vessels. Enter Off Time You can limit the cooking time with the TIMER button.
