4.5 Power regulation

Heating power of the hotplates may be set at then different levels. This chart shows an illustrative use of
each power setting.

4.6 Energy saving tips

• When buying pots, be careful in selecting size: pot diameter usually refers to the top edge of the pot,
which is often larger than the bottom.
• Steam-pressure pots, which use pressure in tightly sealed interiors, are especially economic and save
both time and energy. Shorter cooking time leaves more vitamins in the food.
• Always leave enough water in steam-pressure pots, otherwise it may result in overheating which may
damage both the pot and the appliance.
• Always cover the pots with lids of appropriate size.
• Use such pot size to accomodate the quantity of food to be prepared.

4.7 Hob control

• After turning the ceramic glass hob on, all displays light up for a moment. The hob is ready for operation.
• The hob is fitted with electronic sensors which are switched on if you touch the relevant key for at least
one second. Each sensor activation is followed by a sound signal.
• Avoid placing any objects on sensor surface (possible error signalization
• Always keep the sensor surface clean.
