cFrying Sensor
T his function can be used to fry food while maintaining
F r y i n g S e n s o r
the suitable frying pan temperature.
The cooking zones that have this function are identified
by the roasting function symbol.
Advantages when frying
The hotplate only heats up if this is required to
■
maintain the temperature. This saves energy and
prevents the oil or fat from overheating.
The frying function reports when the empty frying
■
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 does not activate correctly. You can use a
splash guard to prevent splashes of grease.
Use suitable oil or fat for frying. If butter, margarine,
■
extra virgin olive oil or lard is used, set heat setting
1 or 2.
Never leave a frying pan, with or without food,
■
unattended when it is being heated.
If the hotplate is a higher temperature than the
■
cookware or vice versa, the frying sensor will not be
activated correctly.

sensor are available. These optional accessories can

Notes
The frying sensor has been configured specifically
■
for this type of frying pan.
Ensure that the diameter of the base of the frying
■
pan corresponds to the size of the hotplate. Put the
frying pan in the centre of the hotplate.
Using a frying pan of a different size or one that is
■
poorly positioned on the flexible cooking zones may
result in the frying sensor not being activated. See
the section on ~ "Flex Zone".
Other frying pans may overheat. They may reach a
■
temperature above or below the selected
temperature setting. Try the lowest temperature
setting to begin with and change it if necessary.
