Convenience
The induction appliance only transfers energy as long as a pan is located in the cooking zone. This is
independent of the position of the rotary power knob. If you remove a pan from the cooking zone, the
energy transfer to the pan is stopped immediately. If you place the pan back in the cooking zone, the
energy level you selected previously is again transferred to the pan. The cooking process is stopped
by switching off the rotary power knob. However, the appliance remains ready to use (standby). It is
only when the mains plug has been disconnected (or the main switch has been turned off) that the
appliance has no power.

5.3.3 Normal operation
The decimal point flashes every 2 seconds in standby (potentiometer setting = off). The pot is firstly
searched for when the potentiometer setting =
on:
U and a decimal point on the display indicate when
power is being provided. (After 1 minute energy saving mode: search pulse every 5 seconds.)
If a pot is detected, the display switches to level 1 - 9.
Meaning of the decimal point:
ON
= operation
1 second pulse
= power limited due to excessive heat sink temperature
½ second pulse
= power limited due to excessive coil/pan temperature
¼ second pulse
= power limited
1/10 second pulse
= power limited due to suboptimal pan material
5.4 Improper operation
The proper functionality of the induction appliance can only be guaranteed if it is used correctly.
The appliance must always be operated within the limits stated in the technical data.
5.5 Modification / use of spare parts
Contact the manufacturer if you intend to make any modifications to the appliance. For safety reasons,
only use original spare parts and accessories that have been approved by the manufacturer.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for costs resulting from the use of non-original components.
5.6 Pan detection
Pans with a diameter of less than 12 cm (base) are not detected. The LED operating lamp is lit during
operation or the digital display shows the selected power level (1-9). When operating the appliance
without a pan or with a pan made out of an unsuitable material, no heat is generated, the control lamp
flashes only briefly or the display does not indicate a pan - error messages.
5.7 Monitoring the cooking zone
The cooking zone is monitored by a temperature sensor located beneath the ceramic hob (centre of
the cooking zone). It can detect if pans located in the centre of the cooking zone are overheating
(hot oil, empty pans). The supply of heat is stopped. The appliance does not supply heat to the pan
again until the temperature has returned to a normal value.
Attention!
Only the cooking appliance is protected from overheating, not the pan. An overheated pan is
only detected when the ceramic hob – due to the overheating – reaches the switch-off
temperature (260°C).
Attention!
Only place pots and pans onto the appliance if their full surface area is located on the
cooking zone. Ignoring this safety instruction will cause damage to the pots and the appliance.
Ramifications if ignored:
Pots will become welded together and joint materials will burn due to the
heat from the pans. This will destroy the seals and allow moisture and grease to penetrate into the
appliance causing it to malfunction.
