Residual Heat Indicator, 

H

After use, a cooking zone will remain hot for a while as heat 

dissipates. When a cooking zone is switched off the residual 

heat indicator symbol [

H 

], will appear in the display. This 

shows that the cooking zone temperature is above 60 °C and 

may still cause burns. Once the temperature has dropped to 

below 60 °C the [

H 

] will go out.

Automatic Heat-up, 

A

This function is available on all of the cooking zones. It 

allows rapid heating up of the element to bring the selected 

cooking zone up to temperature. Once the zone is at the 

required cooking temperature the power level will reduce 

automatically to the preset level.
The function is selected by turning the control knob to the 

‘A’ position. Turn the control knob momentarily counter-

clockwise from the zero position until the symbol [

A 

] is shown 

on the hob control display. 
Once the [

A 

] is displayed, turn the control knob to the level 

of your choice (1 to 9). The pan will heat up at 100% power 

for a specified time before the power is reduced to the level 

selected.
When the Automatic Heat-up function is activated, the hob 

control display will flash alternately between the [

A 

] setting 

and the chosen power level.
Once the Automatic Heat-up time has ended the hob display 

will stop flashing and will show the chosen power level.
The Automatic Heat-up function can be stopped by either 

turning the control knob back to the “0” power setting or 

turning the control knob to the “9” power setting.
For your guidance 

Table 2-2

 shows the time available at 

100% power depending on the power level selected in the 

Automatic Heat-up mode.

Child Lock, 

IMPORTaNT:

 The child lock can only be activated when all 

the cooking zones are switched off.

To prevent the unwanted use by children, the hob can be 

locked.
To lock the hob, simultaneously turn the two left-hand 

controls counter-clockwise 

(Fig.2-6) 

and hold until the 

symbol appears in the centre of the hob control display 

(Fig.2-7)

.

Note: 

[

A 

] will flash when locking the hob – this is normal. 

Locking the hob will NOT affect the oven; it can still be used.
To unlock the hob, simultaneously turn the two left-hand 

controls counter-clockwise and hold until the 

 symbol 

disappears from the centre of the hob control display.
