TouchControl
The glass ceramic part and the metal frame glued to it comprise the bearing
element of the hotplate.
A circumferential seal prevents moisture from entering the gap between the
hotplate and the worktop when the hotplate is installed.
Internally, the heating zones, TouchControl and mains terminal box are laid out on
the glass ceramic part and are mounted on the frame.
