2 / USING YOUR APPLIANCE
SAFETY DURING OPERATION
•Residual heat
After intensive use, the cooking zone that
you have just used can remain hot for several
minutes.
A is displayed during this period.
Avoid touching the hot areas during this
time.
•Temperature limiter
Each cooking zone is equipped with a safety
sensor that constantly monitors the tempera-
ture of the bottom of the cookware. In the
event that an empty vessel is left on a coo-
king zone that is on, this sensor automati-
cally adjusts the power output of the hob,
thereby avoiding any risk of damage to the
cookware or the hob.
•“Small Items” safety
A small object (such as a fork, a spoon, a
ring, etc.) left alone on the hob is not detec-
ted as a piece of cookware.
The display flashes and no heat is produced.
Caution
It is not recommended to place metal
objects such as knives, forks, spoons and
lids on the cooking surface as they may
heat up.
•
USING THE “CHILD SAFETY DEVICE”
Your hob has a child safety
device that locks the hob (for
cleaning, for example).
Due to safety reasons, only the
“stop” control is always active. It
authorises a heating zone to be switched off
even when the hob is locked.
•How do you lock your hob?
Press the lock button F down until you see a
lock in the middle of the display and you hear a
beep.
•Hob locked when in operation
The display showing which cooking zones are
operating always has the F lock symbol in the
middle of the screen.
When you press the power buttons or the timer
for the zones in operation, the lock flashes and
then stays on after a few seconds.
Only the “stop” control remains on at all times.
•The hob is locked when switched
off
The lock comes up on the centre of the screen
after pressing the On/Off button (A).
It is possible to access function F.
•How do you unlock your hob?
Press the F button until the lock goes out (only
on a hob in operation). A double beep will
confirm your action.
Clean lock
This function allows you to temporarily lock
your hob while cleaning.
To activate Clean lock:
- Press briefly the F button. A beep sounds
out and the lock flashes red.
After a predefined time, the lock will automati-
cally disengage. A beep sounds and the indi-
cator goes out.
Note
Remember to unlock your hob
before using it again (see chapter on
“child safety use”).
