How it works

Power management
The hob has a maximum total permitted
power consumption which cannot be
exceeded for safety reasons.
Cooking zones can be linked together
in pairs on the hob. This allows
additional power to be transferred from
one cooking zone to another.
The previously set setting has
precedence and the hob will operate
with this level.
If power is transferred from one cooking
zone to the linked cooking zone, the
power for the first cooking zone must
be reduced.
The possible values for the maximum
total permitted power consumption
and which cooking zones are linked
together can be found in “Overview –
Cooking zone data”.
If the new cooking zone requires more
power than the first cooking zone can
provide, this may result in the following
consequences for the first cooking
zone:
- The power level is reduced.
- Auto heat-up is deactivated. Cooking
continues at the set level. If the
power is not sufficient, the power
level will be reduced again.
- The Booster function is deactivated.
- The cooking zone is switched off.
If the most recently set power level is
reduced or the Booster function is
switched off, the power level for the
linked cooking zone can be increased
again.
