Description of the Functions
The glass-ceramic hob has four cooking zones heated by electrical heating
coils under the glass-ceramic plate. The power of each cooking zone can
be adjusted in nine levels. The hob is operated via touch-sensitive buttons
on the control panel. The current operating status is shown on displays. The
glass-ceramic hob can be kept clean easily because of the smooth surface.
Overheating Protection
A thermostat monitors the inside of the appliance. If maximum temperatures
are exceeded, the appliance is turned off automatically to prevent damage.
Residual Heat Indication
After the appliance has been turned off, the display of the corresponding
cooking zone shows the symbol ‘
H
” (residual heat) when the temperature of
the cooking zone is still high enough to cause burns when touched. When
the temperature has dropped sufficiently, the residual heat indication of the
respective cooking zone goes out.
Automatic Switch off
The integrated automatic switch off automatically turns off the appliance, if
you forget to turn off the hob. The switch off times of the different power lev-
els are shown in the following table:
