The temperature ranges

When cooking with the sensor cooking system, instead of
setting heat settings, you set temperature ranges. There are five
temperature ranges available:
Temperature range
170 - 180 °C
110 - 120 °C
90 - 100 °C
80 - 90 °C
60 - 70 °C

Altitude calibration

The point at which water begins to boil depends on the height
of your kitchen above sea level. If your food is boiling too
vigourously or too weakly, you can set the boiling point:
Call up
in the basic settings. Select the hotplate. The default
™...
setting is
. Select the appropriate value for your altitude:
Level
0 ­ 100 m
100 ­ 200 m
200 ­ 400 m
400 ­ 600 m
600 ­ 800 m
800 ­ 1000 m
1000 ­ 1200 m
1200 ­ 1400 m
above 1400 m
* Basic setting
You can find out how to change the values in the Basic settings
section.
Notes
At altitudes of 0 ­ 400 m, the boiling point need not be set.
Initially, you should cook using the default setting. If you are
not satisfied with the boiling result, change the boiling point
setting.
The 90­100 °C temperature range is adequate for boiling,
even if the water does not bubble as much as usual.

Cooking with the cooking sensor technology

The hotplate must be selected.
Place the food in the pot and fill with at least two fingers'
1.
depth of liquid.
Place the pot in the centre of the hotplate and cover with the
2.
lid.
Press the cooking sensor on the desired hotplate so that it
3.
pops out. The

the settings range. The temperature lights up in the display.
The sensor cooking system is activated.
The temperature symbol remains lit until the temperature is
reached. Then a signal sounds. The temperature symbol goes
out. The sensor cooking system maintains the temperature of
the saucepan within the set temperature range.
Switching off the sensor cooking system
Switch off the hotplate. Depress the cooking sensor, so that the
sensor window does not get dirty.
Notes
You can also place the food in hot water. Fill the pot with
liquid only. Adjust the settings as described in points 3 and 4.
When the temperature is reached and a signal sounds, add
the food to the liquid.
The top of the depressed cooking sensor gets hot if the
adjacent hotplate is switched on.
