1.5. Initial Light Conditions
When power is initially applied to the Cooktop, the touch control conducts a calibration process for the touch keys, which
requires a low level of ambient light in the area of the touch keys.
If during this calibration process excessive ambient lighting is detected the User Interface displays "FL" (Infrared
Ambient Light Error) and the control calibration process is suspended. In order to rectify the process any lighting that could
affect the calibration process should be switched off (e.g. halogen cooker hood lighting). The error will disappear when
satisfactory ambient lighting is detected and the touch control calibration procedure will now complete satisfactorily.
Notes:
1) The "FL" error can only be generated within approx 3s of initial power being applied to the cooktop.
2) We recommend that the user switches off all cooker hood lighting and lighting directed towards the cooktop when
power is initially applied to the cooktop.
3) After the touch control has conducted its initial calibration process, (approx 3s) any cooker hood or other lighting can
be switched on as normal and will not affect the operation of the touch control.
