en Cooking sensor mode

Cooking sensor mode

The cooking sensor processes make cooking easy and

guarantee exceptional results.

The wireless cooking sensor measures the temperature

of the cookware continuously. This allows cooking to be

precisely regulated and the temperature to be

maintained at the required level at all times in order to

prevent excessively vigorous boiling and to achieve

perfect cooking results.

You can add your food once the selected temperature

has been reached. The temperature is automatically

kept constant without you having to change the heat

setting.

Cooking sensor mode is available anywhere on the

cooking surface if you have a wireless cooking sensor.

The wireless cooking sensor forwards the temperature

of the cookware to the control panel.

The hob has a wireless cooking sensor. If required, this

can be purchased at a later point from specialist

retailers, or through our technical after-sales service or

our online shop. You can use up to three cooking

sensors at the same time.

Note: You can order it by specifying the reference

number CA060300.

For more information about the cooking sensor, see the

section entitled ~ "Wireless temperature sensor"

Benefits

▯The cooking position only emits heat when this is

necessary to maintain the temperature. This saves

energy.

▯The temperature is maintained continuously. This

prevents the food from boiling over. It also means

that you do not have to change the temperature

setting.

▯Cooking sensor mode will tell you when the water

or oil has reached the optimal temperature for

adding the food (see the exceptions where the food

should be added at the very beginning).

Notes

– Use pans with a thick, flat base.Do not use pans

with a thin or deformed base.

– Fill the pan so that the contents reach high enough

to cover the cooking sensor's silicone patch.

– Do not remove the cooking sensor from the

saucepan during cooking.

– Remove the cooking sensor from the saucepan

after cooking. Be careful as the cooking sensor may

be very hot.

Tips for cooking with cooking sensor

mode

▯Keeping warm/heating: Portions of frozen products,

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

cookware. Add the volume of water specified by the

manufacturer.Cover the cookware with a lid. Select

the temperature recommended in the table.

▯Poaching: This cooking method is suitable for

cooking food at low temperatures, thickening

sauces, reducing stews and cooking with milk.

Select the temperature recommended in the table

for the food you want to cook.

▯Boiling: This cooking method allows you to boil

water with a lid on without it boiling over. This

temperature control allows water to be boiled more

efficiently. Select the temperature recommended in

the table.

▯Cooking in a pressure cooker: Follow the

manufacturer's recommendations. After the signal

tone sounds, continue cooking for the

recommended time. Select the temperature

recommended in the table.

▯Deep-fat frying: It is recommended that you heat oil

with a lid on.Once the signal tone has sounded,

remove the lid and add the food. Select the

temperature recommended in the table for the food

you want to cook.

Notes

– Always cook with the lid on except when using the

"Deep-fat frying" function.

– If an audible signal does not sound, make sure

there is a lid on the pan.If there is a lid on the pan,

the appliance may have reached its maximum power

consumption or the Power management setting

may have been activated. This may affect the time

required to reach the selected temperature. Switch

off or reduce the temperature of the cooking

positions on which the other pans are placed. See

the section entitled ~ "Basic settings"

– Never leave oil unattended when it is being heated.

Use oil that is suitable for deep-fat frying. Do not

mix different cooking fats and oils – e.g. oil and lard

– as such mixtures may foam up when hot.

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

when boiling potatoes, next time use more 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. If the water is

boiling too vigorously or not vigorously enough, you can

set the boiling point. Proceed as follows:

▯Touch the t button and select the basic setting

Cooking sensor calibration.

▯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. If

it is not, select the setting that matches your home's

height above sea level.

Note: A temperature setting of 100 ºC is sufficient for

efficient boiling, even if the water does not boil very

vigorously. However, the boiling point can be changed.

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

water to boil more vigorously.
