Function notes
The cookguard is designed to draw attention to hazards as early as possible and to respond accord-
ingly. According to the standard EN 50615 the device is able to distinguish between the normal use
of a cooker/hob and a hazard. Nevertheless, during normal use of the cooker/hob attention hast to be
paid to hazards as the device cannot detect all possible situations.
The sensor unit monitors the temperature increase and use of the cooker/hob. If a potential hazard is
determined, a pre-alarm is triggered if necessary. If this is not acknowledged by the user, the power
control unit switches off the power supply to the cooker/hob after 15 seconds. If the critical situation
on the cooker has been remedied, the pre-alarm can be cancelled by pressing the OK button (3) or the
power supply to the cooker can be reactivated.
