Suitable cookware
Select the cooking zone with the diameter that most
closely matches that of the base of the cookware and
place the cookware in the centre of this cooking zone.
For the cooking functions, use cookware that is tall
enough that, when the required volume of water is
added, the water level is higher than the silicone patch
for the wireless sensor.
Optimised pans and accessories are available for the
frying sensor technology. You can purchase these from
specialist retailers or through our technical after-sales
service or our official website. Always quote the relevant
reference number:
▯ GP900001 15 cm frying pan.
▯ GP900002 18 cm frying pan.
▯ GP900003 21 cm frying pan.
▯ GP900004 28 cm frying pan. Only recommended
for the single 28 cm cooking zone.
▯ CA051300 Teppan Yaki. Recommended for the
flexible cooking zone only.
▯ CA052300 griddle plate. Recommended for the
flexible cooking zone only.
These frying pans have a non-stick coating so that you
can fry food with a small amount of oil.
Notes
– The frying sensor for pans is specially optimised for
this type and size of frying pan and are ideal for
using the Teppan Yaki and grill accessories in the
flexible cooking zone.
– If the pans are a different size or are not arranged
correctly, the FlexZone's frying sensor technology
may not be activated. See section ~ "Flex
function"
.
– Other types of pan may overheat and reach a
temperature above or below the selected
temperature level. Try the lowest temperature level
to begin with and change it if necessary.
Any cookware that can be used with the cooking
functions is suitable for the cooking sensor. You can
find information on which types of cookware can be
used with an induction hob in the section entitled
~ "Induction cooking".
In the Cooking Assistant table, you can find the suitable
cookware for each function.
Sensors and special accessories
The sensors measure the temperature of the cookware
continuously. This ensures that the cooking power is
controlled with high precision to maintain the correct
temperature and achieve optimum cooking results.
Your hob has two different temperature-measuring
systems for achieving the best results:
▯ Temperature sensors that are inside the hob and
check the temperature at the base of the cookware.
Suitable for frying sensor technology for pans.
▯ A wireless cooking sensor that transmits
information about the temperature of the cookware
to the control panel. Suitable for the cooking
functions.
The cooking sensor is essential for using the cooking
functions.
If your hob does not have a wireless cooking sensor,
this can be retroactively purchased from specialist
retailers, our technical after-sales service or our official
website by quoting the reference number CA060300.
You can find more information about the wireless
temperature sensor in the section entitled ~ "Wireless
temperature sensor"
.
Functions and heat settings
Frying sensor technology for pans
If you are frying food, use this function to maintain the
suitable pan temperature.
This function exists for all cooking zones.
Advantages when frying
▯ The cooking zone only continues heating for as
long as this is necessary to maintain the
temperature. This saves energy and prevents the oil
or fat from overheating.
▯ The frying sensor technology reports when the
empty pan has reached the optimum temperature
for adding oil and then for adding the food.
Notes
– Do not place a lid on the pan. Otherwise, the
function is not activated correctly. Use a splatter
guard to prevent fat from spitting out.
– Use suitable oil or fat. If you are using butter,
margarine, cold-pressed olive oil or lard, use
temperature setting 1 or 2.
– Never leave fat or oil unattended while you are
heating it.
