Pioneering technology for a new generation of cooktops: The
new CX 480 full surface induction cooktop makes cooking
child’s play — while also lowering energy consumption. For the
fi rst time ever, the new cooktop concept transforms the entire
surface into a cooking zone. As a result, cookware is heated
regardless of where it has been placed. Neither the sizes nor
the static positions of the pots or pans, of which up to four can
be used simultaneously, make any diff erence. When cookware
is moved, the cooktop recognises the new position and continues
to operate reliably. This feat is made possible by 48 microinductors
located under the glass ceramic surface. The microinductors
are arranged in lines and displaced sideways from one
another. Thanks to an especially large TFT touch display, the unit
can be operated quickly and easily. The shape, size and position
of the cookware is indicated on the display. Just a light touch of
your fi nger on the control panel is suffi cient to select the cooking
position and activate or adjust the power level. Using an information
key, current information can be called up at any time.
Incidently, all that’s required to convert the induction cooktop
into a Teppan Yaki is the use of the special accessory from the
Gastronorm system. ¤
