Power Management
The cooking zones of the cooking surface have a
maximum power.
The maximum power is reached when the heat
setting 14 has been set for all cooking zones.
Two cooking zones generate a pair (see figure)
and therefore, the power management shares the
maximum available power between these cook
-
ing zones.
When the power function is selected for one
cooking zone, the power management makes the
additional power for this cooking zone available
by reducing the power of the corresponding oth
-
er cooking zone.
Example: the heat setting 14 is selected on one cooking zone. The power function is
switched on for the corresponding cooking zone. The power function is carried out but the
heat setting 14 of one of the cooking zones and the power function for the other cooking
zone of the pair exceed the maximum power for both at the same time. For this purpose,
the power management reduces the power of the cooking zone that switched on first from
14 to example 5 and the display of this cooking zone changes between 14 and 5 and then
stays at the current possible maximum 5 (If the display changes between 14 and 5 or 14
and 3 or another value depends on the type of appliance and the size of the cooking zone).

If just one countdown value is set you can change it only when the appliance is switched

If a heat setting is set on this cooking zone in addition to a countdown timer, the cooking
zone is switched off after the time set has elapsed.
If a cooking zone is switched off, the timer function set is also switched off.
