Selecting the heat level
The cooktop must be turned on.
1. Touch the $ touch key for the corresponding element.
The ‹ and __ indicators will appear in the element
display.
2. Within the next 10 seconds touch the desired heat
setting (1-9) in the touch control zone.
Changing the heat level
Choose the heating element and in the touch control
zone select the desired setting for continuous cooking.
Turning off the element
Select the element and set the heat level to 0. The
element is turned off and the residual heat indicator is
displayed.
Note: The heat is turned on and off to regulate the
temperature of the element; this means that the red glow
below the element is not always visible. When you select
a low heat setting, the element turns off for longer
intervals, while at a higher setting these intervals are very
short. Even at the highest level, the element turns on and
off.
Settings table
The following table provides some examples. Cooking
times may vary depending on the type of food, its weight
and quality. Deviations are therefore possible.
Set the element to heat setting 9 for bringing to the boil
or initial frying, then switch back to appropriate setting
(not for melting).
9 CAUTION
During cooking, stews or liquid meals such as
soups, sauces or drinks can heat up too quickly
unnoticed and overflow or spatter. For this reason
we recommend that you stir continuously, gradually
heating the food at a suitable power level.
