Operation
Keeping warm/Warming food
The Keeping warm function is for
keeping food warm when it has just
been cooked and is still hot. It is not for
reheating food that has gone cold.
The Keeping warm Plus function is
for keeping food warm and for warming
up food. It is also suitable for melting
chocolate.
If the Keeping warm function has
been activated, the cooking zone will
remain switched on for a maximum of
2 hours. With the Keeping warm
Plus function, the maximum operat-
ing duration depends on the safety set-
ting (see "Safety features" – "Safety
switch-off").
– Only use pans for keeping food
warm. Cover the pan with a lid.
– Stir firm or viscous food (mashed
potatoes, stew) occasionally.
– Nutrients are lost when food is
cooked, and continue to diminish
when food is kept warm. The longer
food is kept warm, the greater the
loss of nutrients. Try to ensure that
food is kept warm for as short a time
as possible.
