CAUTION!
Use laminated pans only with
low heat setting levels, to
prevent overheating and
damage of the cookware.
• Start the function when the hob is cold (no
preheating is necessary).
• Use sandwich bottom cookware made of
stainless steel.
• Do not use cookware with an
embossment in the centre of the bottom.
• Different sizes of pans can cause different
heat up times. Heavy pans store more
heat than the lighter ones and take more
time to heat up.
• Turn the food over once it reaches a half
of the desired temperature.
Very thick portions of food should be
turned over more often (i.e. once every
two minutes). We recommend you use the
Sous Vide method first, to get best
results. To add a finishing touch, put the
prepared portions on a pre-heated pan
and roast them quickly on both sides.
• Always remove the Food Sensor before
turning the food over.
