Touch Control Safety Functions
The following safety functions are available to avoid unintended operations.
Sensor Safety Cut Off
To prevent the appliance from unwanted button operation, button monitoring is included.
In cases where one or more buttons are pressed for longer than 12 seconds, there is an
audible noise to indicate an incorrect operation (pot or other object placed on the button,
sensor failure, etc.) and the appliance switches off.
Th is " safety turn off " causes the hob to go into stand-by-m ode. An ´
F
` will flash in all
zone setting displays.
If residual heat is present, it will be displayed on all other zone setting displays.
The hob control will then go into
stand-by-m
ode. At the same time a buzzer sounds.
After 10 minutes the buzzer will stop.
Once the incorrect operation has been cleared, the audible and visible warning
signals
will stop.
Over Temperature Switch Off
Due to the controls being very close to the heating zones in the middle of the front of
the hob, it can occur that an incorrectly placed pot is not sensed by the sensor safety
cut off (not covering a button) and heats up the hob to a very high temperature, which
makes the glass and the buttons dangerous to touch.
To prevent the hob control unit from damage, the controls constantly monitor the temperature
and switches off if overheating occurs.
This is indicated in the zone setting displays with the letter ´ t ` time until the temperature
decreases.
