13. Errors/Alarms
When an error is detected, the whole appliance or the heater/s are switched off, a beep sounds (only if one or
more heaters are active) and all displays show a ‘F’ letter and the error code alternately.
While in error status the keys of the corresponding heaters are not operative.
Except EEPROM and microcontroller errors, all errors are recoverable. That is, when the cause of the error
disappears all displays are deactivated and the cooktop returns to normal operation.
