2.16 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS
Residual heat
After intensive use, the cooking area you
have just used will remain hot for several
minutes.
An "H" is displayed during this time
(2.16.1)
. So, avoid touching the zones
concerned.
Temperature limiter
Each cooking area is fitted with a safety
sensor that continuously monitors the
temperature of the bottom of the pan. In
the event that an empty pan is left on a
zone that is switched on, the sensor
automatically adapts the power
delivered by the hob and limits the risk of
damaging the cookware or the hob.
Spillage protection
The hob may be switched off in the
following three cases:
- A spillage in the touchkey area
(2.16.2)
.
- Damp cloth placed over the touchkeys.
- A metal object placed on the touchkeys
(2.16.3)
.
Remove the object or clean and dry the
touchkeys and then continue cooking.
In these cases, the
symbol is
displayed accompanied by an audible
f
g
o
signal.
«Auto-Stop» system
If you forget to switch off a pan, your
hotplate has an “Auto-Stop” safety
function that automatically switches off
the forgotten cooking zone after a preset
time (between 1 and 10 hours based on
the power level setting).
If the safety system is triggered, the
cooking zone is shown as cut off with
"AS" displayed on the control panel and
a beep sounds for about 2 minutes. To
stop it, simply press any of the control
buttons.
Sounds similar to the ticking of a
clock may be heard.
These sounds occur when the hob is in
operation and disappear or decrease
according to the heating configuration.
Low whistling or humming may also
occur depending on the model and on
the quality of your pan. These noises are
a normal part of induction technology
and do not indicate a fault.
We do not recommend using any
hob protection mechanisms.
