Protection against overflows
. In case of overflow, or of a metallic object or wet
cloth placed on the control areas, the hob turns itself off, the displays light up and a
beep sounds. Clean the hob or remove the object, then begin cooking again.
“Small Items” safety
. By placing a small object on the area (a ring, a fork, etc),
the hob will detect it and not deliver any power. The power display flashes.
Note: However, several small objects at the same time on a zone could be identi-
fied as cookware. In that case, power will be delivered by the hob. Do not place
any utensils (spoons, forks, covers, etc) on the cooking zone being used. They will
heat up in the same way as cookware: Risk of combustion.
Temperature limiter
. Each cooking zone is equipped with a safety sensor that con-
stantly monitors the temperature of the bottom of the cookware. If you leave
empty cookware on a zone which is turned on, it will automatically limit the power
in order to prevent damage to the cookware or hob.
Automatic Pan Detection:
detects when a suitable pan is placed on the cooking
zone and so eliminates the possibility of the hob being activated accidentally by a
non-suitable object
.
Residual heat
. After a long cooking period, the zone used can remain hot for sev-
eral minutes. An ‘’H’’ flashes during this period. Do not put your hand on the zone.
Auto-Stop system
. If you forget cooking is in progress, after a predefined time,
this safety function will automatically turn off your hob (from 1 to 10 hours de-
pending on the power setting). “AS” displays and a beep sounds after about 2 min-
utes. Press on the main selector to delete this information. A beep will confirm
your setting.
