How the Hyper and HiLight
cooktops work
Under the cooking zone is a radiant heating element with a heating
tape. When the cooking zone is switched on, the heating tape
generates radiant heat, which radiates to the cooking zone and heats
it up.

Recommendations for power levels
The specifications provided in the table are standard values.
Depending on the cookware and filling quantity, it is recommended to
either decrease or increase the power level.
The heating and heat-through times for the cookware base, as
well as the cooking results, are significantly influenced by the
structure and material of the cookware.
Power setting on the Hyper cooktop
The front cooking zone on the Hyper glass ceramic cooktop is fitted
with a temporary power setting.
T
is displayed.
The power setting can be used in order to quickly heat up large
quantities of water. If the power setting is activated, the cooking
zones will run at extra high power. After 10 minutes, the cooking zone
automatically switches back to power level 9.
Suitable cookware
Cookware with this symbol is suitable for radiant heating
elements. The cookware used for radiant heating surfaces must be
metal and have good heat conducting properties.
Suitable cookware is made of:
T
stainless steel, copper or aluminium
T
enamelled steel
T
cast iron
u
Pay attention to the cookware base. The bottom of the cookware
should not show any sign of curvature. Due to incorrect hob
temperature monitoring, this curvature may cause the cookware to
overheat. To avoid scratching the cooktop, the base of the
cookware must not have any sharp grooves or sharp edges.
u
Place the cookware (without a mat or similar) directly onto the
glass ceramic.

How the Tepan stainless steel grill
works
Under each grilling zone there is a heating element. When a grilling
zone is switched on, the heating element generates heat that directly
heats the grill surface.
Power levels and temperature ranges
The power is adjusted via temperature ranges that are shown in the
operating panel display in °C (temperature indicator).

The temperatures corresponding to the power levels
The power output of the Tepan stainless steel grill heats food
extremely quickly. A slight adjustment is needed in comparison to
conventional cooking systems when selecting the temperature in
order to avoid burning food.
Activity Temperature in °C
Steaming fruit, e.g. apple slices, peach halves,
banana slices
-
Browning chopped vegetables, fried eggs, veal,
poultry
-
Browning breaded or battered fish, pancakes,
sausages, pork, lamb

How the gas cooktop works
If a cooking zone is switched on, the flame generates heat, which
directly heats the base of the cookware. The gas flame is controlled
by a highly accurate electronic gas control system (e-gas system).
Among other things, servomotors are used to accurately control each
gas burner. These servomotors calibrate themselves from time to
time and typical humming noises can be heard that are totally normal
and do not constitute a malfunction. The advantage of this electronic
gas control system is the optimum, repeatable heat regulation, which
means that the selected power levels are identical in every cooking
session. In addition, a clean, constantly increasing flame is formed at
every power level. Furthermore, if necessary, it can be automatically
reignited.
The cooktop has automatic ignition.
Power levels
The power is adjusted using power levels 1 – 9 and P. The output of
gas cooktops means that food is heated quickly. In order to avoid
burning food, slight adjustment is needed in comparison to
conventional cooking systems when selecting the power level.
