(see table).
As long as there is the letter A in the display – A3, for
example – a high power level is being used for fast
cooking.
If there is only a number – 3, for example – the cook-
through setting has been switched on.
In the table below, you can see the fast-cook times for the
various fast-cook settings. The number after the A indicates
the setting used for cooking through. On fast-cook setting A6,
for example, the food is fast-cooked at a high power level for
the first ten minutes and then cooked through on setting 6.

fast-cook setting
You will normally bring food to the boil on a high setting and
then switch to a lower setting to allow it to cook through.
The fast-cook setting can do this for you. The fast-cook
setting automatically switches the hob down to the setting
selected for cooking through.
After a while, you will notice that you always let potatoes, for
example, cook through on the same setting - setting 4, for
example. In that case, select fast-cook setting A4 and the
appliance automatically switches down to setting 4 as soon
as the food boils.
The fast-cook setting can be used in combination with the
timer. Take care, however, that you increase the cooking time
by the fast-cook time (see also the "timer" section on page 9).
attention
A condition for using this setting is that you use a good
quality pan with a heavy base.
When cooking small quantities, the fast-cook setting may be
too fierce. In that case, do not use the fast-cook setting.
