INSTRUCTION FOR THE USER
GB
The locking function can be activated when the
cooking levels are activated or when the cook top is
off. If the cook top is on, the Key Lock function locks
all the sensors except the On/Off (Key 6) general
sensor and the key lock sensor.
When the cook top is turned off, the Key Lock
function blocks all the sensors, including the general
On/Off switch, except the key lock sensor.
Cancellation of the Key Lock function
If the keyboard is locked (the LED (11) associated with
the Key Lock (Key 10) sensor is on), keep the Key
Lock sensor pressed for 1 second to cancel the
locking function and the indicator light will go out.
Residual heat indicators
While the temperature on the cook top glass surface
is above 65°C, this condition will be shown in the
associated display, by means of an “H”.
If the cook top is switched off, residual heat is shown
by a static “H” in the display. If the cook top is on, but
the power level is 0, the associated display will show
alternately “H” and “0”.
To generate a temperature above 65°C a heating
element has to be in operation for a certain time,
which depends on the selected power level. Once this
time is passed, the residual heat warning will come
into operation when the element is switched off.
If the minimum time needed to exceed 65°C is over,
the length of time the residual heat indicator remains
in operation is a function of the time the element has
remained turned on at a certain power level.
Safety auto-power-off
If the power level is not changed for a present time, the
element in question will automatically be turned off.
The maximum operating time of an element depends
on the cooking level selected.
Thermal protection of the control panel
When the control panel detects an ambient
temperature above 96°C it turns off the nearest
element (selected by software), and an “H” for residual
heat shows in the associated display.
An element turned off by the thermal protection can
only be re-activated when the temperature falls below
89°C.
Timer operation
The timer is activated by pressing the (+) or (-) (Key
8) timer sensors. It can be set to any value between
1 and 99 minutes and can modifies at any moment.
To cancel the timer, select the <00> value using the
(-) timer sensor or switch it of by pressing the (+)
and (-) timer sensors simultaneously.
The timer can be customised to suit the needs of
the user by configuring the following options:
1. Increase of timer value (1 min. /5 min.).
2. Timed heating element (fixed / programmable).
3. Indication of timed heating element.
4. Duration of the acoustic alarm (1 min. /indefinite).
5. Default initial timer value.
6. Timer / Timer-Alarm mode.
Increase of timer value
Pressing the (+) or (-) (Key 8) timer sensors for a
sustained period will result in an automatic
increase/decrease, enabling the user to reach the
desired timer value faster. The increase can be set
to 1 minute or 5 minute increases/ decreases.
●
1 minute increases:
After the tenth consecutive increase/decrease the
timer value increases or decreases faste
●
5 minute increases:
After the fifth consecutive increase/decrease, when
the timer value reaches a multiple of 5, it increases
or decreases 5 by 5 units instead of 1 by 1.
Timed heating element
Any of the heating elements under the touch control
system, either simple or double, can be timed.
When the timed period is over, the timed heating-
element (and if applicable the twin area as well)
switches itself off automatically.
The timed heating element can be programmed as
follow:
●
Fixed heating element:
The timer setting always applies to the same
heating element.
●
Programmable heating element:
The user can decide which heating element to time.
The selection of a new heating element cancels the
previous choice, thus the timer setting can only
apply to one heating element at a time.
