Settings table

Each cooking zone has 9 settings. To reach the

required temperature quickly, you can use the

automatic boil start function or heat setting 9. Then

always adjust down to the required heat setting.

The range of settings is the same on all cooking

zones.

The values in the settings table are only to be used as

guidelines, as more or less heat may be required

depending on the type and state of the food and the
