8.1.7 Ceramic hob thermal protection

Each cooking zone is equipped with a device which constantly measures its temperature.
If the temperature should exceed preset values, the device will trigger specific functions to reduce the
temperature and allow the ceramic hob to keep operating correctly.
The following table lists the automatically triggered procedures and the relative trigger temperature:

Warning: do not spill sugar or sugar mixtures onto the hob when hot. Do not place
materials or substances which might melt (plastic or aluminium foil) on the hob. If
this should occur, to prevent damage to the hob's surface, switch it off immediately
and remove the melted material with the scraper provided while the hob is still warm.
If the ceramic hob

is not cleaned immediately, residues may form which cannot be

removed once the hob has cooled.

Important
Keep a close eye on children because they are unlikely to see the residual heat warning lights on the
hob.
The cooking zones are still hot for some time after use, even if they are switched off.
Make sure that children never touch the hob.

8.2 Holding Function

The holding function keeps the temperature of the bottoms of pans at about 65°C. This allows foods to
be kept hot with optimal energy consumption and to be heated gently. The holding function can be kept
in operation for up to 2 hours.
The holding function is between [0] and [1] and is indicated by the relevant symbols on the cooking
zones.
