Lock /child safety device
The lock can be used to block operation and settings (e.g. power setting 4).
An activated lock will remain activated even if the hob is switched off!
The lock hence also serves as a child safety device in order to prevent
the hob from being operated unintentionally or intentionally.
Switching on (left cooking zone)
1. Press the Plus key
and the Minus key
of the front left cooking
zone simultaneously until the symbol is shown. Both of the lefthand
cookingzones are locked. As soon as a key is pressed the
symbol
will re-appear to remind you of the lock function.
Switching off
2. Press the Plus key
and the Minus key
of the front left cooking
zone simultaneously until the
symbol goes off. Both of the lefthand
cooking zones will have been released again.
Note!
• It is possible to switch the cooking zone off if the lock has been activated
by means of pressing the ON/OFF key
. The lock will remain
activated.
• Use the same procedure for locking the right-hand cooking zone.
Safety switch-off
The appliance has an automatic time limit function. It prevents the
appliance from being in operation for a longer period of time.
The timer of the time limit function depends on the setting of the cooking
level: The higher the setting of the cooking level the faster it switches
off. The time limit function operates for each cooking zone seperately.
Important! After switching off the cooking zone, a
will appear in the
display. The letter will remain. In order to acknowledge, press any key of
the respective cooking zone. This will be confirmed when a double signal
sounds.
Other functions
If two or more sensors are pressed at the same time – e.g. when a pan is
mistakenly put onto a sensor key – no function is activated. After 10
seconds the entire electronic system will switch off and dashes
will
appear. Exception: lock/child safety device.
If you continue to press a sensor key after having set the highest cooking
setting, the electronics switch off automatically after 10 seconds.
The appliance does not automatically switch on again after a power failure.
The hob is switched off if the electronics become overheated. A row of
dashes or “F7” will appear.
Protection against overheating
If the hob is used at full power for a lengthy period, the power electronics
may no longer be cooled to the necessary extent at room temperature.
To ensure that no excessive temperatures occur in the electronics, the
power of the cooking zones may be reduced automatically.
If, during normal use of the hob and at normal room temperature, a row
of dashes or “F7” appears frequently in the cooking setting display, the
cooling is probably not sufficient.
The cause may be that the kitchen units do not have any openings for
cooling purposes or that they do not have any screening. If necessary
installation must be checked.
