close to the hob if you have a cooking zone on a high setting.
I Never let an empty pan stand on a hotplate that is switched on. While the
hotplate is protected and will switch itself off, the pan will be extremely hot.
The pan could be damaged.
I When the induction hob is in use keep objects that can be affected by
magnetic fields (credit cards, bank cards, diskettes, watches and similar items)

heart specialist first.
Do not use the appliance below 5 °C.

Warming zone
Although the warming zone has a diameter of 13 cm, you can place a pan of
any size on it. In general, pans conduct heat so well that the diameter of the
pan is less important for keeping the food warm.
