Refer to "Technical data".
Steam Vented Lids
To further optimize the cooking sessions
alongside the hood you can use the
special Steam Vented Lids with your
cookware. The lids are designed to direct
the steam produced inside the pot
towards the hood, minimizing unwanted
cooking smells and excessive humidity in
the kitchen. The lids are available to buy
separately in several sizes to fit most
common cookware types. For more

7.3 Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the
cooking zone deactivates before the
count down timer sounds. The difference
in the operation time depends on the
heat setting level and the length of the
cooking operation.
7.4 Examples of cooking
applications
The correlation between the heat setting
of a zone and its consumption of power
is not linear. When you increase the heat
setting, it is not proportional to the
increase of the consumption of power. It
means that a cooking zone with the
medium heat setting uses less than a
half of its power.
