When the pre-set cooking time has finished, the cooking zone switches off
automatically and an acoustic signal sounds for two minutes. This can be swit-
ched off by pressing any key.
If you want to switch the timer off beforehand, press cooking zone key and
timer key. The Minus key can now be used to set the timer to ”00”, or alter-
natively this can be done by the simultaneous pressing of the Minus and the
Plus keys.
The timer can also be used as an egg timer when none of the cooking zones
are activated. In this case, no cooking zone should be activated when the timer
is being set (the stand-by dot cooking zone does not light up).
Time limit function (holiday function)
The appliance is equipped with an automatic time limit function. This function
makes sure that the appliance is not in operation for a long time. The time
period of the time limit depends on the selected cooking setting, eg.: The high-
er the selected cooking setting, the faster the appliance is switched off
The function to limit operation time works separately for each cooking zone.
Other functions
■
If pressing two or more sensor keys – at the same time e.g. when a pan
is mistakenly put onto the sensor key no function is activated. After 10 sec-
onds the appliance switches off automatically.
Exception:
– Switching off a cooking zone by means of simultaneously pressing the
plus and minus sensors.
■
The appliance does not automatically switch on again after a power failure.
If the sensor lock was activated prior to a power failure it will subsequently
be de-activated.
What to do if there is a fault
Unplug the appliance befor repair!
Check carefully to make sure that the fault is not due to misoperation. You
can rectify many faults yourself
.
Important note:
Repairs should only be carried out by an authorised technician! Even during
the guarantee period repairs will not be free of charge if due to incorrect op-
eration or to non-adherence to our instructions given under “What to do if
there is a fault”.
You should always give the data on the rating plate to your service centre in
case you have enquiries or want to order spare parts. The rating plate is lo-
cated underneath the cooking area. The rating label is located at the bottom
side of the hob. It is also stuck onto the cover page of this operating manual.
Cleaning and care
■
Never use sharp or abrasive agents!
It is sufficient to clean with a damp
cloth and a little washing-up liquid
after usage. Wipe dry.
■
Incrustation due to boilied over foods
are best presoftened with a wet
cloth. Then remove them with a glass
scraper.
Sugar and melted plastic
should be removed while the cooking
area is still hot.
■
Clean the glass-ceramic cooking area after every use. Always keep the sen-
sor keys clean, since soiling could be detected as finger contact by the
aplliance. Immediately remove soiling. Never put anything (pans, tea-towels
etc.) on the sensor keys! If food boils over onto the sensor buttons, we ad-
vise you to activate the emergency switch.
■
Care for your glass-ceramic cooking area once a week. Regular care builds
up a protective layer and also eases day to day cleaning. Please follow the
instructions of the cleaner or cleanser manufacturer concerned. Even heavy
soiling can be cleaned with a cleanser and enough water. Wipe dry with a
cloth.
