Installation – Calibration and function test
Function test
There are two different function tests: 1 = On/Off test 2 = Current test.
To activate the function test:
1. Remove the SENSOR cover and set DIP switch 0 to ON
2. Put the cover back on temporarily to stop the batteries falling out.
To change between the two function tests, hold the control button on
the SENSOR in for five seconds.
The sensor acknowledges with one or two beeps to indicate the test type.
Calibrating electricity consumption
If the yellow LED on the SOCKET comes on continuously when the hob
is OFF and does not disappear when the control button on the sensor is
pressed, the cooker’s standby current is higher than the Cooker Guard’s
preprogrammed standby level.
In this case the level can be recalibrated to actual electricity
consumption by:
1. Holding the SOCKET’s control button in until the red and green LEDs
flash – then release the button within two seconds.
2. The green LED flashes three times to acknowledge the change.
NB: We strongly recommend measuring the hob’s electricity
consumption in standby BEFORE doing this calibration. High electricity
consumption could be caused by a fault in the hob. Incorrect calibration
the case of high electricity consumption can result in the Cooker Guard
never starting or not working as intended.
1 beep
On/Off test
The sensor acts as an
ON/OFF switch.
Pressing the control button
switches between turning the
power to the cooker ON/OFF.
The light on the SENSOR comes
on when the cooker socket is on
(sending power to the cooker).
2 beeps
Current test
Indicates electricity consumption for
the hob.
Following activation turn the hob on ON.
A few seconds later the red LED on the
SENSOR should come on continuously
and the green and yellow LEDs on the
SOCKET should light up.
Now turn the hob off. The red LED on the
SENSOR goes out and only the GREEN
LED on the SOCKET should be on.
NB: May only be carried out by
an authorised electrician.
When you have performed the function test(s), remember to set DIP
switch 0 to OFF.

Installation – Settings
DIP 8: Autoconnect
NB: In order for this function to work, DIP 9 must be ON. Fifteen minutes
after turning the cooker off, the Cooker Guard will automatically be
reset and turn the power back on. On a cooker with rotary switches,
all the rings and oven must be turned off before the Cooker Guard will
reset itself automatically.
If this function is not activated or to reset the Cooker Guard manually,
press the control button on the sensor (or external switch panel,
optional extra).
DIP 9: Current measurement
When current measurement is ON, the Cooker Guard will only give an
alarm when the cooker is in use. This includes all types of alarm signal,
including low battery.
NB: We recommend that you do not turn off current measurement,
as this will reduce battery life considerably.

DIP 5, 6 and 7: Timer function
The countdown starts when the cooker is turned on. When 5 minutes of
the set time are left, the Cooker Guard beeps once every 15 seconds for
5 minutes. Pressing the control button restarts the countdown.
