Switching a cooking zone on/off
If the touch control is switched on, the cooking zone can
be selected by pressing the button (5) of the corresponding
zone.
The display (6) of the zone selected lights up, while the re-
maining displays are dimmed. if the cooking zone is “hot”,
“H” and “0” are alternately displayed.
Press the PLUS (3) or MINUS (2) button to select a setting
and the zone will begin to heat up.
Once the cooking zone has been selected, the setting can
be selected by keeping the PLUS (3) button pressed down.
The setting begins at level 1 and increases by 1 level every
0.4 seconds. When setting “9” is reached, the setting will
not be changed further.
If the setting level has been selected using the MINUS (2)
button, the start level is “9“ (maximum level). Keep the
button pressed down to lower the active level by 1 every
0.4 seconds. When setting “0” is reached, there will be no
further setting changed. The setting can only be changed by
pressing the MINUS (2) or PLUS (3) button again.
Switching a cooking zone off
Select the zone to be switched off using the corresponding
button (5). The display (6) of the zone selected lights up,
while the remaining displays are dimmed. Press the PLUS
(3) and MINUS (2) buttons at the same time and the setting
level of the zone is changed to 0. Alternatively, the MINUS
button (2) can be used to reduce the setting level to 0.
If a cooking zone is “hot”, “H” and “0” will be alternately
displayed.
Switching all cooking zones off
Press the ON/OFF (1) button to immediately switch off all
zones at any time. In standby mode, an “H“ is displayed in
all cooking zones that are “hot“. The remaining displays will
be switched off.
Setting level
The cooking zone can be set to 9 levels that are indicat-
ed by the numbers “1“ to “9“ on the seven-segment LED
displays (6).
Residual heat indicator
This informs the user that the glass is at a dangerous tem-
perature in the event of touching the area located around
the cooking zone. The temperature is determined by a
mathematical model and any residual heat is indicated by a
“H” on the corresponding 7-segment display.
Heating and cooling are calculated based on:
· The selected setting level (between “0“ and “9“)
· The ON/OFF time.
After switching off the cooking zone, the corresponding dis-
play will indicate “H” until the temperature in the zone has
dropped below the critical level (≤ 60°C).
Automatic off function (operating time limitation)
In terms of the setting level, if no operation occurs each
cooking zone switches off after an established maximum
time.
Each operation in the cooking zone condition (using the
PLUS (3) and MINUS (2) or dual zone) restarts the maximum
operating time of the zone by resetting it to its initial value.
Protection against unintended switching on
· If the electronic control detects a button being held down
for approx. 10 sec. it will switch off automatically. The con-
trol sends out an audible error signal to warn the user that
the sensors have detected the presence of an object. The
displays indicate error code “ E R 0 3 “. If the cooking zone
is in “hot” mode, “H“ will be indicated alternately on the
display with the error signal.
· If no cooking zone is activated within 20 seconds after
switching on the touch control, it will return to standby
mode.
· When the control is switched on, the ON/OFF button has
priority over all other button and, therefore, the control can
be switched off at any time, even when several buttons are
pressed at the same time or a button is kept held down.
· In standby mode, no effect will be caused by buttons be-
ing kept held down. However, before the electronic control
can be switched back on, it has to detect that no button is
pressed down.
