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 o
ff
.
The safety turn o
ff
causes the hob to
go into S-Mode. An “
F
” will
fl
ash in all
heater displays.
If residual heat is present, “
H
” will be dis-
played on all other heater displays.
The hob control will then go into S-Mode.
At the same time a buzzer sounds. After
10 minutes the buzzer will stop.
If there is no erroneous operation
present, both the visual and the audible
signals will disapear.
Over Temperature Switch-O
ff
Due to the controls being very close to
the heater 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-o
ff
therefore heating up the
hob to a very high temperature. This
makes the glass and the buttons dan-
gerous to touch. To prevent the hob
control unit from damage, the controls
constantly monitor the temperature and
switch o
ff
if overheating occurs.
This will be indicated by the letter “
t
“ in
the heater display until the temperature
decreases.
Once the temperature has dropped,
the “
t
” in the heater display will disap-
pear and the hob control unit will revert
back into S-Mode. This means that the
user can reactivate the appliance by
pressing .
Operating Time Limitations
The hob control unit has a limitation on
the operating time. If the heat setting for
a heater has not been changed for a cer-
tain time, the heater will switch o
ff
auto-
matically. A “
0
” will be displayed for 10
seconds, however there may be some
residual heat present. The limit of the
operating time depends on the selected
heat setting.
After a heater automatically switches o
ff
,
as described above, the heater can be
used and the maximum operating time
for this heat setting will be applied.
