getting used to it…
To start with, you will be surprised by the speed of the
appliance. In particular, bringing things to the boil on the
higher setting is very fast. To prevent a dish boiling over or
boiling dry, the best thing is to always stay beside the hob.
In the case of induction cooking, it is only the part of the
zone on which the pan stands that is used. If you use a small
pan on a large zone, the power will be adjusted to the
diameter of the pan. You achieve the best result by using a
pan that has the same dimensions as the cooking zone. The
power will thus be lower and it will take longer before the
food in the pan comes to the boil. If you use a pan with a
base that is too small, the cooking zone will not switch on.
The minimum pan base diameter is 12 cm.
setting 12, or
Only switch the hob on at setting 12, or if you want to
boil water. This setting is too high for heating butter or milk
and much too high for defrosting.

learn the techniques.
setting 11
Setting 11 is the grill setting. This setting is suitable for
grilling meat. Setting 12 is far too fast for this; the milk
constituents in the margarine burn before the margarine has
melted.
wok setting
Setting 11 is also the 'wok' pre-selected setting. The 'wok'
indicator light comes on. This only applies to the front right
cooking zone. Other settings or cooking zones, however, may
also be used. If, for example, you have a cast-iron wok with a
small base, and if space permits, the rear left cooking zone
may also be used.
