Safety of the hob
1. A sensor continuously monitors the temperature of the hob components.
Should any temperature rise too high, the power level of the hob will be
reduced automatically.
2. As soon as you remove the pan from the hob, cooking activity stops
automatically. You are nevertheless advised to accustom yourself to turning the
hob or zone off immediately after use, to avoid unintentional use.
3. Each cooking zone has a sensor that continuously monitors the temperature of
the base of the pan to avoid the risk of overheating should a pan boil dry.
4. The hob will not recognise a small object, such as a small pan (less than 12 cm
diameter), fork or spoon, as a pan. The zone display will flash 0 and the hob
will not switch on.
Cooking time limiter
The cooking time limiter is another safety function incorporated in your hob. This
cut-out function is automatically activated if you forget to switch the hob off
after use.
