USING THE COOKTOP
Activating power boost
(AutoMax)
This function enables the cooktop to run at
full power for a set time and then return to the
selected heat setting. In this way, you can quickly
bring something to the boil without needing to
remember to turn down the heat to stop it boiling
too rapidly.
Activate this function as follows:
1. Activate the desired heating zone.
2. Activate the heat for the zone by
pressing either the + or the – symbol until
setting 9 is shown for the zone.
3. Press the + button once more and the
dot next to the 9 lights.
4. Press the - button until you reach the
desired heat setting.
5. While activated, the desired heat setting
(e.g. 5) and a "A" will alternate at 1 second
intervals in the display window for the heating
zone.
6. Once the time has expired, the zone will
return to the chosen heat setting.
The table below shows the time the power
boost is activated for each heat setting.
Example: If you have set AutoMax for heat setting
5, the maximum heat setting is activated for 6
minutes and 30 seconds, after which heat setting
5 is used.
