Operation
5.1 The induction hob
The hob is equipped with an induction cooking mode.
Induction coils underneath the glass ceramic hob
generate an electromagnetic alternating field which
penetrates the glass ceramic and induces the heat-
generating current in the pot base.
With an induction cooking zone the heat is no longer
transferred from a heating element through the cooking
pot into the food being cooked; instead the necessary
heat is generated directly in the container by means of
induction currents.
Advantages of the induction hob
•
Energy-saving cooking through the direct transfer of
energy to the pot (suitable pots/pans made of
magnetisable material are required).
•
Increased safety as the energy is only transferred
when a pot is placed on the hob.
•
Highly effective energy transfer between an induction
cooking zone and the base of a pot.
•
Rapid heat-up.
•
The risk of burns is low as the cooking area is only
heated through the pan base; food which boils over
does not stick to the surface.
•
Rapid, sensitive control of the energy supply.
5.2 Pan recognition
If a cooking zone is switched on and there is no pan on
the zone or if the pan is too small, there will be no
transmission of power. A blinking
indicator points this out.
If a suitable pot or pan is placed on the cooking zone,
the power setting will switch on and the power setting
indicator will light up. The power supply will be cut off
when the pan is removed and the power setting
indicator will indicate a blinking
If the pots and pans placed on the cooking zone are of
smaller dimension, and the pan recognition still switches
on, less power will be supplied.
Pan recognition limits
Cooking zone
190 X 210 mm
Ø 250 mm (only on Model B)
The base of pots and pans must be of a certain
diameter; if it is not, the induction heat will not be
switched on. Always place pots and pans in the middle
of a cooking zone in order to achieve the best efficiency.
Important: The minimum diameter required to activate
the pan recognition device may vary according to the
type of pot or pan used!

5.3 Operation time limit
Operation time limitation is an additional safety feature to
turn OFF cooking zones after a certain time with no
operation to the corresponding cooking zone by the user.
The time after which the cooking zone is turned OFF is
mentioned in the table below.
Each user operation related to the cooking zone will reset
this time limit.

5.4 Permanent key activation
If two or more sensor keys are pressed at the same time
(e.g. when a pan is mistakenly put onto a sensor key) no
function will be activated.
All sensors are supervised for permanent key activation. If
any sensor is activated for more than 10 sec, the hob
switches into OFF mode, emits a signal tone for 10 sec and
displays "Er03" as long as the permanent detection is
recognized. As soon as the permanent key activation
disappears, the hob can be operated regularly.
5.5 Protection against overheating (induction)
If the hob is used at full power for a longer period, it will not
be possible to cool down the electronics system as required
at a high room temperature.
In order to ensure that no excessive temperatures occur in
the electronics system the power of the cooking zones may
be reduced automatically. Should E2 / ER21 be displayed
frequently during normal use of the hob and at normal room
temperature, it is likely that cooling is not sufficient.
This may occur if kitchen units have no openings. The
installation may have to be checked.
