Timer function
The Timer function can be used as a
cooking zone timer or independent alarm
but never for both functions. The two 7
segment displays of the respective cooking zones are used
to view the remaining time in minutes up until the timer
alarm is activated.
Timer selection
- To program a timer, the touch control must be in the
Standby or On mode.
- The timer button is pressed in order to select a timer
function for the cooking zone.
- The programming of a timer using the Plus/Minus keys
is signalled by led 8 for induction model 2 and led 6 for
the wok induction model. The flashing timer LED signals
that the 7 segment display value refers to the timer and
can be modified. When a timer continues to function in
the OFF mode, the timer LED remains on.
This indicates that the value on the display is related to
the timer, but cannot be directly modified at that particular
moment; to do so, the control must be reactivated.
- The activation of the timer button depends on the
conditions of the previously set function: a) The cooking
zone corresponding to the timer is on (cooking level >
0): The timer is programmed in reference to the cooking
zone; the cooking zone automatically switches off when
reset; an independent timer cannot be selected. The
cooking level setting is accessed when the timer button
is pressed again.
b) The cooking zone corresponding to the timer is
off (cooking level = 0): The timer is independently
programmed and continues to function even in OFF.
The cooking zone cannot be activated until the timer is
functioning.
Setting of the Timer value
- Following the selection of the time, the related LED
flashes as described above. The countdown time of the
desired timer can be set by means of the +/- buttons.
- Starting with the plus button, the first value displayed is
“01” and progressively increases from 1 to a maximum
value of “99” (upper limit).
- Starting with the minus button, the value displayed on
the indication is “30” and diminishes to “01” (first lower
limit). When this value is reached, an acoustic signal is
emitted. By pressing the minus button again, the display
“00” will not be modified (second lower limit).
- Setting can be performed by permanently pressing the
plus or minus buttons or by intermittently pressing them
(selection: press button, release, press button, release,
etc).
- If the button is permanently pressed, the regulation
speed automatically accelerates, meaning that the time
between one step and the next is reduced, until the
button is released.
- If the Plus or Minus buttons are not pressed within 10
sec. (parameter), after having selected the timer of the
current cooking zone (the display remains on “00”), the
indication and allocation of the +/- buttons automatically
switch to the cooking zone.
- When a timer is used as an alarm, the indication and
allocation of the buttons does not switch to the cooking
zone, being that this cannot be activated.
- The timer normally starts in countdown, if programmed
with two values that are not 0. For example: the timer
starts when the Plus button is released after the timer
value has been set at “01”.
- The timer settings have priority over the delimitation of
the operating time if high cooking levels have been set.
- If only one alarm has been programmed, the control
remains at first in the standby mode (no other cooking
zone is on). If no other new values are introduced, the
TC behaves as described above and switches to the
OFF mode.
Timer laps/ timer alarm and confirmation
- The last 10 sec. before the timer lapses are displayed
(countdown up to alarm).
- Once the set time of the timer has lapsed, the timer alarm
is activated and the assigned cooking zone is switched
off.
- The display and the selected timer LED flash alternating
the cooking level from “00” to “H”, if there is residual heat.
- The warning alarm lasts for at least 2 minutes if the user
does not switch it off before.
- The alarm signal switches off after the 2 minutes is up or
if any button is pushed.
The buzzer and the timer control light are switched off.
Timer off /Modification of the timer setting
- The timer settings can be modified in the Standby or On
mode at any time after the selection has been made by
pressing the Plus or Minus buttons.
- The timer can be switched off, setting it to value “00”, by
pressing the Minus button or by pressing the Plus and
Minus buttons together.
