Overheating protection
Each cooking zone is equipped with
overheating protection. An internal
temperature limiter switches off the
heating elements in the cooking zone
before the ceramic surface overheats.
Once the ceramic has cooled down to
a safe level the heating will
automatically switch back on again.
Overheating can be caused by:
– switching on a cooking zone without
a pan on it.
– heating up an empty pan.
– the base of a pan not sitting evenly
on the cooking zone.
– the pan not conducting the heat
properly.
You can tell that the overheating
protection has activated because the
heating switches on and off even when
the highest setting is selected.
