usage. The cooking zone will continue to operate at its nominal

To deactivate the booster on a zone
•
To cancel the booster at any time, use the heat setting slider sensor
(12) to return the heat setting to '0' or an alternative level.

whilst the booster function is in operation then the function will be
automatically deactivated and the zone will continue to operate at its
