DIP 3 and 4: Installation height/hob type
For hobs up to a width of 60 cm the sensor can be fitted 45-70 cm
above the hob. Any lower and it might not comply with DS/EN 50615.
For wider hobs (max. 90 cm) the sensor must be fitted 65-70 cm
above the hob to cover the full width.
* Increased alarm threshold
Ceramic hobs give off a lot of radiant and residual heat, which can
cause false alarms, as the sensor also measures the heat outside the
actual hotplate. Allowance can be made for this by increasing the
alarm threshold for the smallest hotplates. Please note that raising
the alarm threshold will reduce safety because in certain cases the
cooker guard will not differentiate between the smallest hotplates
and radiant/residual heat. Nor will the cooker guard comply with DS/
EN 50615 in some cases when a higher alarm threshold is set. Instead,
we recommend using cookware that covers the entire heating zone
and turning the hotplate off BEFORE removing the cookware.
NB: Does not apply to induction hobs.
