is large enough. Center the saucepan on the surface cooking
area. Allow the saucepan to cool down in the event that it has
become hot when used. Switch the surface cooking area off,

■
Is the Performance boost function display flashing and
switching off?
The Performance boost function operates the
surface cooking area with the most power. During long
cooking times, it is possible that the function will switch the
surface cooking area off to protect the cooktop from
overheating. You can continue to use the cooktop if the
display is not flashing.

Operational cooktop sounds
■
Is there a low humming?
This occurs when cooking at high
power. The cause of this is the amount of energy which is
transmitted from the appliance to the cookware. This sound
will quiet or go away when the power is turned down.
■
Is there a crackling?
This sound occurs when cookware is
used which consists of different materials. The noise is
caused by vibrations in the joint faces between the different
layers. It may change depending on the amount and type of
food being cooked.
■
Is there a fan noise?
The electronics require a controlled
temperature in order to function reliably. The cooktop is fitted
with a fan which runs at various speeds according to the
temperature detected. The fan may also continue to run even
after the cooktop has been switched off, if the temperature it
detects is too high.
