The control panel

Hotplate and residual heat indicator
The hotplate and residual heat indicator lights up when a
hotplate is warm:
Hotplate indicator - during operation, shortly after you have
■
switched on a hotplate.
Residual heat indicator - after cooking, when the hotplate is
■
still warm.
You can use the residual heat to save energy, e.g. to keep a
small meal warm or to melt chocolate.
Note: Hotplate temperature is regulated by the heat switching
on and off. The heat may also switch on and off at the highest
setting.

Table of cooking times

The following table provides some examples.
Cooking times and heat settings may vary depending on the
type of food, its weight and quality. Deviations are therefore
possible.
For bringing liquids to the boil, use heat setting 9.
Stir thick liquids occasionally.
