[. . . ] This appliance complies with all regulations relevant to electrical appliances. Repairs should only be carried out by service engineers trained by the manufacturer. Repairs that have not been carried out properly represent a considerable hazard to the user. You must not store any combustible items or spray cans beneath the hob. [. . . ] The power supplied adapts to receptacle diameter without wasting energy. 22 Using the hob Hotplate control 0 1 3 9 7 5 Fig. 2 The hotplate controls are used to set the heat setting of the individual hotplates. . 1 = lowest power 9 = highest power Warming, according to amount Boiling Boil start Boiling large amounts Boiling small amounts Frying Heating fat/initial frying Continued frying 1­5 9/Booster 6-8 4-6 8-9 7-8 "Stand-by" pad with indicator ligth When a hotplate is switched on, the ON/OFF light comes on. Fig. 3 Residual heat indicator While the heat remaining on the glass is still capable of causing burns, the residual heat indication on the right-hand side of the middle of the glass lights up, fig. 5 The booster function gives the respective hotplate 150% of the maximum heating power and therefore requires watching when in operation. After heating, reduce the heat setting to save energy and prevent ignition of frying medium. To activate this function, set the respective hotplate switch to setting 9. Set the switch to another position, when you no longer require this setting. Connecting the "Booster" function: In order to connect the "Booster" function, turn the control knob for , fig. The signal will light up to indicate that this position has been activated. Disconnecting the "Booster" function: In order to disconnect the "Booster" function, turn the control knob to any position other than 9. The "Booster" function can only be activated on a cooking area when the other area on the hob has been turned off. If the other cooking area is not off, then the "Booster" function indicator will flash and finally go out altogether, indicating that the function cannot be used. The cooking hob may turn the Booster function off automatically under certain conditions in order to protect interior electronic components. Should this occur, the function has to be turned on once more; if the control indicator remains flashing after the function has been turned off automatically, it is necessary to wait a few minutes before trying to turn the function back on again.

Perfect heat setting also offers improvements in the cooking of foods involving as chocolate baths, "choux" pastry (for profiteroles) or others requiring long cooking times, by not preventing food from sticking to the sides of the receptacle. The lowest possible heating-power settings should be used to achieve this. When the cooking temperature falls too much, turn it up by 1-2 settings. If the temperature rises too much, all you need do is turn the setting down; it is not necessary to remove the receptacle from the heat. When deep-frying, it is recommended that the oil should be heated up at the highest possible power setting and then turned down to a midsetting when the foodstuffs are placed in the heated oil. This setting should then be kept for the remainder of the cooking process. [. . . ] Check to see if the cooking plate works properly "from cold". The appliance is equipped with an automatic power-reduction system to prevent both overheating when cooking at high temperatures and cooking without liquid. If you wish, you can use a different inductioncooking plate until the previously-used one has cooled down. 29 The residual heat light and relevant cooking plate indication flash. The Booster-function indicator flashes and goes out The Booster-cooking function makes the cooking plate work at its maximum power. [. . . ]
