The VC 422 glass ceramic cooktop: Two Super Quick cooking zones, with extendible roasting zone. Great options on a small surface.
Super Quick cooking zones
These are distinguished by an even output of heat. After switching on, the heat is reached and throttled quickly. Not only can heat be regulated particularly well, it is also clearly recognizable by the increasingly bright red light.
Individual residual heat display
Each cooking zone has its own residual heat display. The residual heat display is activated as soon as a zone is switched off after cooking and remains lit until the cooking zone has cooled down.
Roasting zone
The cooking zone can be increased to accomodate the dimensions of laregr roasters. Thus, the entire surface of a roaster is evenly heated.
Automatic cooking time
The time at which you desire one or more cooking zones to be switched off automatically can be selected up to 90 (CK) or 99 (VI) minutes in advance. The integral clock can be used as a timer independently of the function set for the appliance.
Safety lock
After running for four hours, the appliance automatically switches itself off if it receives no operator commands during this time.
Control knobs
All Series 400 control knobs are designed to prevent unintentional activation of the appliance, because they need to be both pressed and rotated. Before a knob can be turned, it must be pushed through a clearly felt stop position. The temperature selection knobs on electrical appliances may then be turned in either direction, even past the zero position. The setting selected for a cooking zone via a particular knob position is then retained. A discreet circular orange light indicates active cooking zones. In gas appliances, rotation of the knob is limited to one direction; illumination of the ring is not possible.
