HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
ÖKO TIMER (ECO TIMER)
To save energy, the heater of the
roasting zone deactivates before
the count down timer sounds. The
difference in the operation time de-
pends on the heat setting level and
the length of the cooking operation.
PREPARING FOOD WITH THE
TEPPAN YAKI
You prepare the food directly on the roast-
ing surface, with or without oil. You can al-
so use pots or pans, but the cookware
does not heat up as quickly as it does on a
glass-ceramic hob or a gas hob
You can cook or keep warm side dishes or
sauces in pots or pans. Put them directly
on the cooking surface.
The manufacturer does not recommend
that you boil large quantities of water on
the roasting surface (e.g. for spaghetti).
The noises are normal and are
not the result of an appliance
malfunction.
