4.2 Control knobs
You can use the control panel to configure all functions of
your appliance and to obtain information about the
operating status.
The markings around the control knobs show the available
power levels. The power levels can be set continuously. If
you turn on any burner, the indicator light at the right
corner of the control panel lights up.
Note: The image of the control knob is representative.
Depending on the available settings, the individual control
knobs may have some but not all functions described in
the following chart.

4.4 Burner grates
Place the burner grates correctly onto the cookop. Never
operate the cooktop without the burner grates in place.
¡ For the correct position of the burner grates, refer to the
appliance overview image.
¡ Place the cookware on the burner grates. Never place
cookware directly onto the burners.
¡ Always remove burner grates carefully. When you move
one burner grate, the burner grates next to it may also
move.
4.5 Sealed burners
Your cooktop has sealed gas burners. There are no
burner parts under the cooktop to clean, disassemble or
adjust.
Your cooktop has four different burner sizes; small,
medium, large and extra-large. Match every burner cap
with the corresponding burner base.
