goes out and the
SmartLine element is ready for use
again.
Safety switch-off with an overlong
cooking time
The safety shut-off is triggered auto-
matically if a heating element is heated
for an unusually long period of time.
This time depends on the power level
selected. If it has been exceeded, the
heating element turns off and the resid-
ual heat indicator appears. The Smart-
Line element can now be used again as
normal.
The SmartLine element is pro-
grammed to safety setting 0 at the
factory. If required you can set a
higher safety setting with a shorter
maximum operating time (see chart).
