Cooking functions

You can use these functions to heat, simmer or cook

food, or cook it in a pressure cooker or fry it in a

saucepan with sufficient oil at a controlled temperature.

These cooking functions are available for all hotplates.

Benefits

■The cooking zone only continues heating for as long

as this is necessary to maintain the temperature.

This saves energy and prevents oil or fat from

overheating.

■The temperature is continuously monitored. This

prevents the food from spilling over. In addition, the

temperature setting does not need to be changed.

■A signal sounds once the water or oil has reached

the optimum temperature for adding the food. The

table shows if the food needs to be added right at

the start.

Notes

■Use pots and pans with a thick, flat base. Do not use

pots and pans with a thin or domed base.

■Fill the pot so that the contents reach high enough to

cover the cooking sensor's silicone patch.

■Use the frying sensor when frying with a small

amount of oil.

■Position the cookware in such a way that the

cooking sensor is pointing towards the outer side of

the hob.

■Do not remove the cooking sensor from the pot

during cooking.

■Remove the cooking sensor from the pot after

cooking. Be careful as the cooking sensor may be

very hot.

Tips for cooking with the cooking functions

■Heating/keep-warm function: Frozen products in

portions, e.g. spinach. Place the frozen product in

the cookware. Pour in the volume of water specified

by the manufacturer. Cover the cookware and select

the setting 1/70 °C. Stir occasionally.

■Poaching function: This function is suitable for

cooking food at low temperatures and for thickening

sauces and stews. Select setting 2/90 °C.

■Boiling function: This function allows you to boil

water with a lid without it boiling over. You can boil

efficiently thanks to the temperature control. Select

setting 3/100 °C.

■Cooking in a pressure cooker function: Follow the

manufacturer's recommendations. Continue cooking

for the recommended time once the signal has

sounded. Select setting 4/120 °C.

■Frying with a large amount of oil in the saucepan

function: To heat the oil with the lid on. Remove the

lid after the signal tone and add the food (insofar as

there are no other instructions in the "Recommended

dishes" table). Select setting 5/170 °C.

Notes

■Always cook with the lid on. Exception: "Frying with a

large amount of oil in the saucepan", temperature

setting 5/170 °C.

■If an audible signal does not sound, make sure that

the lid is on the pan.

■Never leave oil unattended during heating. Use oil or

fat that is suitable for frying. Do not mix different

cooking fats together, e.g. oil and lard. Mixtures of

different fats may froth up when hot.

■If you are not satisfied with the cooking result, e.g.

when cooking potatoes, next time use less water but

keep the recommended temperature setting.

Setting the boiling point

The point at which water starts to boil depends on the

height of your home above sea level. You can change

the boiling point if water is boiling too strongly or not

strongly enough. To do this, proceed as follows:

■Select the Set the boiling point basic setting; see

section ~ "Basic settings"

■The basic setting is set to 200-400 m by default. If

your home is between 200 and 400 metres above

sea level, you do not need to set the boiling point.

Otherwise, select the setting that matches your

home's height above sea level.

Note: Temperature setting 3/100 ºC is sufficient for

efficient boiling, even if the water does not boil very

strongly. However, the boiling point can be changed.

For example, you can set a lower altitude if you want the

water to boil more strongly.
