Limiting the cooking time
The hob has an automatic device which
limits the duration of use.
If the cooking zone settings are not
changed, the maximum duration of
operation of each zone depends on the
power level selected.
When the device for limiting the duration of
use is activated, the cooking zone turns off,
a short alert is sounded and if the zone is
hot the symbol
appears on the display.
Protection from overheating
If you are using the hob at full power for a
long time, for the electronics it could be
difficult to cool down, especially if the room
temperature is high.
In this case a device intervenes to cut off the
power supply to the front cooking zones
and the display shows
and
flashing.
If the electronic circuit-board temperature
does not reduce, the device will cut power
to all the cooking zones and
will display (on some models only).
Cooking can be resumed once the
temperature returns below alarm levels.
Other functions
If you press three or more controls at the
same time or for a long period, (e.g. due to
accidentally placing a saucepan on them
or due to an overflow of liquid), an
automatic device deactivates all the
cooking zones if they are on and the
display will show error
.
Remove the cause of the error from the
keys.
