unlocked, even if the control has been switched-OFF and -ON
in the meantime. Also a reset of the control (after a voltage
drop) does not cancel the key lock.
Unlocking for cooking purposes:
To unlock and operate the control it is required to operate
the front right cooking- zone select- key and the MINUS-key
simultaneously. “L“ (LOCKED) in the display extinguishes
and all cooking zones show “0“ with a blinking dot. Should a
cooking zone be “hot”, “H” is displayed instead of the static
“0”. After switching- OFF the control, the child safety feature
is active again.
Cancelling the key lock:
After switching-ON the control the child safety feature can be
deactivated. Here it is necessary to simultaneously operate
the front right cooking-zone-select key and the MINUS-key
and then operate the MINUS-key alone. If all steps have been
carried out in the right order within 10 seconds the key lock
gets cancelled and the control is OFF. Otherwise the input
will be considered incomplete, the control remains locked
and switches-OFF after 20 seconds. After a renewed
switching-ON by means of the ON/OFF key all displays show
„0“, the display dots are blinking and the control is ready for
cooking. If a cooking zone is in “hot” mode, “0” and “H” will
be alternately displayed.
Audible signal (buzzer)
While the control is in operation the following activities will
be signaled by means of a buzzer:
· normal key activation with a short sound signal.
· continuous operation of keys over a longer period of time
(_10 seconds ) with a longer, intermittent sound signal.
Timer function (optional)
The timer function is realized in two versions:
· Stand-alone timer 1..99 min: sound signal when the time is
over (= minute minder). This function is only available when
the cooktop is not in operation, i.e. when there is no
cooking.
· Cooking zone timer 1..99 min: sound signal when the time
is over, four cooking zones can be programmed
independently.
Timer as minute minder (stand-alone):
·
If the control is ON and no cooking zone selected, the
standalone-timer can be used by simultaneously operating
MINUS (2) and PLUS (3) keys.
· Adjustment range (0-99min), it can be set in 1-minute
steps with any key, starting at 1 up to 99 (end stop) with the
minus-key starting at 99 down to 0 (end stop)
· Continuous activation of the plusor minus-key results in a
dynamic increase of the adjustment speed up to maximum
value without sound signal.
· when the plus- or minus key is released in the meantime,
the adjustment speed starts again from a (low) initial value.
· adjustment can be made with a continously activated plus-
or minus-key or by tip-operation (with sound signal) After
the timer is set the time runs down according to the
adjustment. When the time is over there is a sound signal
and the timer display blinks.
The sound signal will be stopped
· automatically after 2 minutes and/or
· by operating any key. Then the blinking of the timer display
stops and the display extinguishes.
Switching-OFF/changing the timer
· The timer can be changed or switched-off anytime by
simultaneously operating MINUS (2) and PLUS (3) keys.
(with sound signal). The timer will be switched off by
counting down to “0” with the minus-key. For 6 seconds the
timer display remains at “0“ before it will be switched-off.
· If the control will be switched- ON by means of the Power-
key, the stand-alone timer will be switched-off also.
Timer programming on cooking zones
When the control is switched- ON an independent timer can
be programmed for every cooking zone.
·
By selecting a cooking zone with the cooking-zone-
selectkey (4), then selecting the setting and, finally,
operating MINUS (2) and PLUS (3) keys simultaneously, the
timer can be programmed as a switch-off function for a
cooking zone.
·
During timer programming, the pilot light (6) of the
selected cooking zone blinks.
· When the timer has run down, there is a sound signal and
the timer display shows “00“ statically, the assigned cooking
zone timer LED blinks. The programmed cooking zone will
be cut off and „H“ will be displayed if the coking zone is hot,
otherwise a stroke will show in the cooking zone display.
The sound signal and the blinking of the timer LED will be
stopped
· automatically after 2 minutes
· by operating any key.
The timer display extinguishes.
· The basic behaviour follows the description of the “minute
minder” (stand-alone-timer).
Precautions
- when the hob is in use keep all magnetizable objects away
(credit cards, floppy disks, calculators and so on)
- do not use any alluminium foil or place any foodstuffs
wrapped in alluminium foil directly on the hob
- do not place any metal objects such as knives, forks,
spoons and lids on the hob surface as they will heat up
- when cooking in a non-stick pan without seasoning, do not
exceed 1-2 minutes’ pre-heating time
- when cooking food that may easily stick, start at a low
power output level and then slowly increase while regularly
stirring.
- after cooking is finished, switch off using the control
provided (turn down to “0”), and do not rely on the pan
sensor
- If the surface of the hob is damaged, immediately
disconnect the appliance from the mains to prevent the
possibility of electric shock.
- Never use a steam cleaner to clean the hob.
