Franke TP-431, Operating And Maintenance Instruction Manual

Residual heat indicator (Fig 9)                               

As long as the temperature of the burner remains high enough to cause injury, the display corresponding to 
the burner shows the “

H

” symbol (residual heat)

alternatively with “0” symbol

. This indication only disappears 

when there is no longer any danger (at 60°C). 
To save energy, turn off the burner in advance, in order to exploit the residual heat. 
The residual heat indicator “

H

” is lost in the event of a mains power cut lasting more than 3 seconds.  

Turning off the cook top (Fig 10)                               

The cook top can be turned off at any time by means of the on/off key (1). 

The display shows a “

H

” as long as the temperature remains above 60°C.

4. Dual-circuit burners (Fig 11)

Some burners can be equipped with a second circuit: for instance, the burner is composed of a central disk 
and an outer ring. You can turn on the central disk alone (fig. A) or both elements (fig. B). This enables you 
to adapt the heated area to the size of the saucepan you are using.  
 

Turning on a dual-circuit burner (Fig 12)                               

1.Select the required power setting (from 1 to 9) with the keys “

+

” e “

-

“ (5/4). 

2.Turn on the second circuit by means of the dual circuit key. (8). 
The pilot light (9) relating to the burner concerned comes on; the second circuit comes on together with the 
first. 
 

Turning off the burner’s second circuit  

1.The dual-circuit burner must be on.  
2.Touch the dual-circuit key (8). 
The pilot light (9) goes off and the second circuit on burner also goes off. 
 

5. Triple-circuit burners (Fig 13)

Some burners can be equipped with a third circuit: for instance, the burner is composed of a central disk, an 
inner and an outer ring. You can turn on the central disk alone (fig. A), two elements (fig. B), or all the 
elements. This enables you to adapt the heated area to the size of the saucepan you are using.  
 

Turning on a triple-circuit burner (Fig 14)                               

1.Select the required power setting (from 1 to 9) with the keys “

+

” e “

-

“ (5/4). 

2.The dual-circuit burner must be on (10) 
3.Turn on the triple circuit by means of the triple circuit key. (14). 
The pilot light (15) relating to the burner concerned comes on; the third circuit comes on together with the 
others. 
 

Turning off the burner’s triple circuit  

1.The triple-circuit burner must be on.  
2.Touch the triple-circuit key (14). 
The pilot light (15) goes off and the third circuit on burner also goes off. 

 
6. Safety cut-out 

If one or more burners are accidentally left on, the control automatically turns them off after a certain time 
has elapsed. The table below indicates the time interval, which depends on the power level setting.

If the safety cut-out has tripped, the symbol “

H

” is displayed. 

To avoid the automatic cut-out being tripped, simply touch the burner selection key or the “

+

” or “

-

“  keys 

before the time runs out.  
 

7.Automatic preheating 

This automatic device facilitates the cooking process because you do not need to supervise the whole 
cooking cycle.
