Wattage settings
The output of the cooking zones can be set in 9 steps which are
indicated by the figures “1“ thru “9“ by means of LED displays.
Boost function
The booster function can be activated for the required cooking
zone by selecting power level P with the slider power level key (2).
By means of this function certain cooking zones are enabled to
receive power over the nominal (the number of boostable cooking
zone depends on the power available on a partial modules which is
to be less than total hob power ). If the desired cooking zone has the
capacity to activate the booster, the display shows a “P“ symbol. If
there is insufficient available power, the power level indicator for
the cooking zone that needs to automatically reduce power will
display “r” for 3 seconds, following which the power level will
decrease to the previous setting.
The boosting time is limited to 10 min to protect cooking utensils.
After the booster is switched off automatically, the cooking zone
continues operation on power level “9”. The booster can be
reactivated after some minutes.
In case that the pan is removed from the cooking zone during
boosting, the boosting function remains active and boosting time
continues.
Residual heat indicator
It is meant to indicate to the user that the glass ceramic has a
dangerous touch temperature in the circumference of a cooking
zone. The temperature will be determined following a mathematical
model and the remaining residual heat will be indicated by means
of “H” on the corresponding display.
Heating-up and cooling down will be calculated dependent on:
· the selected setting („0“ to „9“)
· the ON/OFF time.
After switching-OFF the cooking zone the respective display shows
“H” until the assigned cooking zone temperature is mathematically
in a uncritical level. (
≤
60°C).
Automatic power OFF function (operating time limitation)
Dependent on the selected setting, every cooking zone will be
switched-OFF after a defined maximum operation time if no
operation of the assigned cooking zone follows within this time
period. Every change of the cooking zone condition puts back
the maximum operation time of this cooking zone to the initial
value of the operating time limitation.
Protection against unintended switching-ON
· If the electronic control realizes a continuous operation of keys for
approx. 10 seconds, it switches OFF automatically.
- If no cooking zone is activated within 10 seconds of switching on
the touch control, this will revert to stand-by status.
· When the control is switched- ON the ON/OFF-key has priority
over all other keys, so that the control can be switched-OFF
anytime, even in case of multiple or continuous operation of keys.
· In the stand-by mode a continuous operation will not be signalized.
However, before the electronic control can be switched-ON again,
it has to recognize that all keys are not operated.
Key lock (child safety feature)
◊
Child safety feature:
Key lock:
To activate the child safety lock after switching on the touch control,
press the safety lock button (10) for 1 second and the safety lock
indicator LED will illuminate (11).
The safety lock function may be activated either when cooking
zones are active or when the appliance is fully switched off.
The electronic control remains in a locked condition until it gets
unlocked, even if the control has been switched-OFF and -ON in
the meantime. Also a reset of the control (after a voltage drop) does
not cancel the key lock.
Unlocking for cooking purposes: :
To unlock the touch control, press the safety lock button (10) for 1
second and the safety lock indicator LED will be extinguished (11).
Audible signal (buzzer)
While the control is in operation the following activities will be
signaled by means of a buzzer:
· normal key activation with a short sound signal.
· 3 short acoustic signals (beeps) for turning off the touch control.
Timer function
The timer function works as follows:
Timer function for a selected cooking zone, from 1 to 99 min: at
the end of the set time, an acoustic signal will be emitted and
the timed zone will be turned off. All three cooking zones may be
programmed independently to different timer settings. During the
last minute of the set time, the timer display (7) will show the time
remaining in seconds.
Timer programming on cooking zones
First select the cooking zone by pressing the corresponding
Selection key (4). Having selected the zone to be timed, press UP
TIMER (8) or DOWN TIMER (9) to activate the timer for that cooking
zone. The timer indicator (6) will be activated for the selected
cooking zone and the display (5) will show 00 blinking. Afterwards,
select a time between 1 and 99 minutes by pressing UP TIMER (8)
or DOWN TIMER (9) keys.
Holding the time selection buttons pressed will cause the time to
increase or decrease more quickly.
If no cooking zone is selected for the timer function within 5
seconds, the timer function will be automatically deactivated.
After selecting the cooking zone to be timed, the time must be
selected within 5 seconds; otherwise, the timer function will be
automatically deactivated.
The selected time will start 5 seconds after setting the timer. The
timer setting can be modified during timer cycle by pressing the
buttons UP TIMER (9) or DOWN TIMER (8). The new timer setting will
start 5 seconds after programming the new timer setting.
To deactivate the timer function at any time press simultaneously
the UP TIMER (9) and DOWN TIMER (8). Pressing the DOWN TIMER
(8) button until the timer display (7) shows “00” also deactivates
the timer function.
When the set time has elapsed, the selected cooking zone will
switch off and the timed zone indicator (6) and time indicator (7)
LEDs will illuminate intermittently while a warning beep will sound
for 1 minute. To cancel this acoustic warning before the set time
has elapsed, press any button on the touch control.
Cooking vessels (Fig. 3)
- a magnet-attracting vessel may be a suitable vessel for induction
cooking
