OPERATION
Limiting the operating time
In order to increase efficiency, the cooking
surface is fitted with a operating time limiter
for each of the cooking zones. The maximum
operating time is set according to the last heat
setting selected.
If you do not change the heat setting for a long
time (see table) then the associated cooking
zone is automatically switched off and the
residual heat indicator is activated. However,
you can switch on and operate individual co-
oking zones at any time in accordance with
the operating instructions.

During failure of power supply
„H” residual heat indicator is not
displayed. However, cooking zo-
nes may still be hot!
Residual heat indicator
Heat energy that remains accumulated in the cooking zone after cooking is called the resi-
dual heat. The appliance displays two different levels of residual heat. When a cooking zone
temperature is above 60°C and the cooking zone or the appliance is switched off, the relevant
cooking zone display will show the letter „H”. Residual heat indication is displayed as long as
the cooking zone temperature exceeds 60°C. When a cooking zone temperature is between
45°C and 60°C, the relevant cooking zone display will show the letter „h” indicating low residual
heat. When a cooking zone temperature is below 45°C the residual heat indication is turned
off. In the event of power outage when residual heat above 60°C is indicated, the residual
heat indicator will flash when power is resorted. Residual heat indicator continue to flash until
the maximum cooling time has elapsed or the cooking zone is selected and used.
When residual heat indicator is
on, do not touch the cooking
zone as there is a risk of burns
and do not place on it any
items sensitive to heat!
