Ensure that the cookware used will not scratch the surface of the heating plate,
although this should not negatively affect the unit’s functioning.

Blocking mechanism
The unit is equipped with two blocking mechanisms
(for each heating plate).
The mechanism may be activated after setting the function mode (power level or
temperature), to place the functions in memory. The control light above this button will
come on and indicate that no other buttons will initiate functions.
To deactivate the mechanism, press the same button again for 2 seconds, until the control
light goes off. All buttons will now become functional again.
