How it works: ¡ A wireless cooking sensor is required to use this mode. → "Wireless cooking sensor", Page 23. The wireless cooking sensor forwards information about the temperature of the cookware to the control panel. ¡ The wireless cooking sensor measures the temperature of the cookware continuously. The power level is controlled and the right temperature is maintained at all times. This prevents overheating and ensures perfect results. ¡ Add your food once the selected temperature has been reached. The temperature is maintained automatically. You do not have to change the power level. ¡ The Cooking Sensor mode is available over the entire cooking surface. ¡ You can use up to three cooking sensors at the same time. Advantages when using the cooking sensor function ¡ The cooking zone only heats up in order to maintain the temperature. This saves energy. Oil or fat will not overheat. ¡ The temperature is continuously monitored. This prevents the food from spilling over and you do not need to change the temperature level. ¡ The cooking sensor mode informs you when the water or oil has reached the optimal temperature for adding the food; in some cases the food should be added at the beginning, refer to the cooking chart. General notes for using the cooking sensor function ¡ Use cookware with a thick, flat base. Do not use cook- ware with a thin or domed base. ¡ Fill the cookware so that the contents reach high enough to cover the cooking sensor's silicone patch. ¡ If you are frying with little oil using a frying pan, always use the frying sensor function. ¡ Position the cookware in such a way that the wireless cooking sensor is pointing towards the outer side of the cooktop. ¡ Do not remove the wireless cooking sensor from the cookware during cooking. ¡ Remove the wireless sensor from the cookware after cooking. Take care as you do so because the wireless cooking sensor can become very hot. ¡ Always cook with the lid on, except when you use the function for frying with a large amount of oil in the saucepan, 340°F (170°C). ¡ If no signal sounds, ensure that there is a lid on the container. For optimum operation of the cooking sensor, we recommend always using a lid, except when you use the function for deep-fat frying with a large amount of oil in a pot. ¡ Never leave oil unattended when it is being heated. Use oil that is suitable for deep-fat frying. Do not mix different cooking fats and oils, such as oil and lard. These mixtures may foam up when they become hot. ¡ If you are not satisfied with the cooking result use more water the next time, for example when boiling potatoes. Use the recommended temperature level. Suitable cookware for the cooking sensor function ¡ Use cookware that is tall enough that, when the required volume of water is added, the water level is higher than the silicone patch for the wireless cooking sensor. ¡ Any cookware that is suitable for induction cooking can be used for the cooking sensor. Refer to the information on induction cooking. → Page 8 Types of cooking processes with the cooking sensor function You can use the cooking sensor function to select the best type of cooking for each kind of food.
