Using the cook top
F When you turn the cooking surface on, you will hear a short buzzing noise
as it heats. This is design-specific and does not affect the quality and
operation of the appliance.
Selecting a cooking level
Each cooking zone has its own regulator. 9 cook-
ing levels are marked on every regulator. You
can also select intermediate settings.
– Press down the regulator and turn to the de-
sired cooking level.
F Ideally, start cooking using the highest set-
ting and continue at a lower setting.
.
Frying or dual-circuit cooking zone
As a rule, only the smaller cooking zone diameter is heated. However, when
ysing frying pans and large saucepans, you may decide to switch on the outer
cooking zone circuit.
Switching the frying or dual-circuit zone on:
– Turn the control clockwise
as far as it will go. You’ll
feel a slight resistance.
– Then set it back to the re-
quired cooking level.
Switching the frying or
dual-circuit zone off:
– Turn the control to “0” briefly.
– Then set it to the required cooking level.
Switching the cooking zone off
– Turn the regulator to the “0” position.
Heat indicators (1)
[
CAUTION! The indicator can fail (defective light bulb). This means you
won’t be warned when the cooking zones are hot. Have the light bulb
replaced immediately!
Each cooking zone has a corresponding heat indicator: it’s positioned identi-
cally to the cooking zone.
The indicators remain on while the cooking zones are still very hot – even after
they have been switched off.
