Booster Function - Miele KM 5731 Operating And Installation Instruction

Operation

Booster function

All of the cooking zones are equipped
with a booster function, i. e. an increase
in the power level.
If activated, the zones will operate on
power setting 9 with an extra boost of
power for a period of 10 minutes. This
boost is intended for quickly bringing
large quantities of water to the boil, e.g.
when cooking pasta.
A maximum of two booster functions
can be used at any one time.
Taking a pan off the zone whilst the
booster is in operation interrupts the
booster function. It will resume if a pan
is placed back on the zone within 3
minutes.
The extra boost of energy is only
available by taking a proportion of
energy away from another cooking
zone. For this reason, the cooking
zones are networked in pairs as shown.

When the booster is switched on, the
following happens:
– if Auto heat-up is activated on either
zone in the same network, this will be
switched off.
– the power level on the other linked
cooking zone will sometimes
decrease.
Proceed as follows:
^ Touch the B sensor for the relevant
cooking zone.
Power setting 9 will show in the cooking
zone display, and the indicator lamp for
the booster will also light up.
After 10 minutes, the zone will
automatically revert to power setting 9.
To switch off the booster before this,
touch either the B sensor or the -
sensor for the appropriate cooking
zone.
If a power setting is selected before the
booster function is switched on, the
zone will revert to this pre-selected
power setting when the booster is
switched off, or automatically at the end
of the booster time.
