Residual heating is shown by ("hot") in the digital display for the cooking zone concerned. The cooking zones are switched off automatically in accordance with the following timetable: · · · Setting Setting Setting , , , after 6 hours after 5 hours after 4 hours · Setting , , , after 1. 5 hours If one or more of the cooking zones should shut off before the expiration of the stated time, see the chapter "Problems and remedies" Residual heat warner After one or more heating zones have been switched off, the digital display shows the residual heat ("Hot") for the respective cooking zone. Even after the hob has been switched off, the display does not go out until the cooking zones have cooled down. · The residual heat can be used to melt foodstuffs or to hold food warm. There is risk of burns as long as the residual heat warner is alight. In the event of a power cut, the symbol goes out and thereby the residual heat warning. Burns can be avoided by being observant. 23 Choice of pan/frying pan A cooker with a ceramic glass plate makes greater demands on your pots and pans that a cooker with heating plates. Remember the following: · Check the bottoms of pots and pans. Pans with a convex bottom (bulging outwards) tend to swivel on the ceramic glass plate and provide poor heating contact. · Aluminium has good heat conductivity, but can leave silvery marks on the plate. · Casseroles and pans that are made of glass or are enamelled with deep patterns cause more wear if they are pulled backwards and forwards on the plate than pots and pans made of other materials. In order to save both time and energy the bottom of a pan or frying-pan · must cover the zone completely. But if the bottom is too small, then boilover can easily stick to the plate.

Removing the rails The baking plate rails are removed in the same way as the step unit, see page 49. THE CATALYSIS ENAMEL on the oven walls and top is porous and has a certain self-cleaning effect. The oven bottom, on the other hand is made of a smooth and rather harder enamel so that you can scrape off spilled material with a spatula or something similar. CATALYSIS ENAMEL The oven becomes hot when used, keep an eye on children. Dirt on the enamel is burnt off to some extent when the oven is used. If the enamel becomes patchy, you can burn off the oven at its highest temperature with top and bottom heating for 30­60 minutes. [. . . ]
