Turn the control dial of the cooking zone you  
wish to use to the High setting, then adjust as  
necessary.  
When using dual cooking zones, you may  
choose to use the inner zone only ( ) or the  
full dual cooking zone ( ). See Fig. 9 below.  
Some models have a cooking zone with a  
unique SuperSimmer feature (see Fig. 10).  
This special, low turndown range is excellent  
for the most delicate cooking tasks, like  
melting chocolate or simmering soups and  
stews.

Cooking guidelines  
Cookware  
Use heavy-gauge, flat, smooth-based cookware that matches the diameter of the cooking zone.  
This will provide good contact with the glass and help reduce cooking times. Low heat or slow  
cooking is often due to incorrect cookware size.  
Cookware with a stainless steel sandwich base or enamelled cast iron will give you the best  
results.  
Saucepans or heavy frying pans with jagged edges or a rough base will scratch the glass.  
Always lift pans off the cooktop - do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.  
Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the cooktop.  
Aluminium and copper-based cookware will leave metallic stains on the cooktop. To prevent  
these building up, clean the cooktop after every use following the instructions in ‘Care and  
cleaning. If the metallic stains are allowed to burn onto the surface, they may react with the  
glass and may no longer be removable. They don’t, however, affect performance.  
It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven, or another cooking zone, on the glass surface  
when the surface is cool.  
Avoid placing anything on a hot cooking zone until it has cooled completely.  
15  
Cooking guidelines  
Important!  
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy  
spillovers that may ignite.  
Take care when deep-frying: oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high setting.  
General cooking tips  
Using a lid will reduce cooking times through retaining the heat.  
Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.  
Start cooking on a high setting and reduce it when the food has come to the boil or heated  
through.  
Even after a cooking zone has been turned off, its glass surface retains enough heat to continue  
cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans from hot cooking zones when the food is cooked.  
Cooking rice, simmering  
Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting higher than  
the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.  
Simmering occurs below boiling point, when bubbles are just rising occasionally to the surface  
of the cooking liquid. It’s the key to delicious soups and tender stews because the flavours  
develop without overcooking the food. Egg-based sauces are best kept below boiling point  
throughout cooking, and flour-based sauces should also be gently simmered after they have  
reached boiling point.  
Using the SuperSimmer feature (some models only)  
The front right cooking zone on some models has a unique SuperSimmer feature. This allows the  
cooking zone to be turned down to very low and even heat settings. These are ideal for melting  
chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate sauces, simmering soups and stews, and keeping  
cooked food hot.  
The high settings of the SuperSimmer cooking zone are just as powerful as those of the other  
cooking zones, allowing food to be browned, seared, sautéed, or boiled before simmering, all on  
the same cooking zones.  
Searing steak  
1

Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.  
Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.  
Brush both sides of the steak with oil and season it to taste.  
Lower the meat onto the hot pan.  
Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness  
of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times vary between 2 to 8 minutes per side. Press the  
steak to gauge how cooked it is: the firmer it feels, the more ‘well done’ it will be.  
Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and become tender  
before serving.

Care and cleaning  
Important!  
For your safety, switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall before any cleaning. In this case,  
there will be no ‘Hot surface’ indication, but the cooking zones may still be hot! Take extreme  
care.  
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean your cooktop.  
Do not use scourers or any harsh/abrasive cleaning agents to clean your cooktop, as these can  
scratch the ceramic glass or stainless steel.
