11 fryingSensor
Suitable for cooking or reducing sauces, pancakes or
frying eggs with butter, for frying vegetables or steaks
up to the required level of boiling, and for keeping the
temperature under control.
Instead of frequently adjusting the power level during
cooking, select the required target temperature once at
the start. The sensors under the glass ceramic meas-
ure the temperature of the cookware and keep this
constant throughout the entire cooking process.
This function is available on all cooking zones marked
with this symbol ⁠.

without you having to change the power level.
¡ Oil does not overheat. This prevents the food from
burning.

as this is necessary to maintain the temperature.
