Switching the cooking zones off:
A cooking zone can be turned off in 3 different ways:
·Simultaneous operation of the and keys.
·Reducing the heat setting to “0”by operating key.
·Use of the timer turn off function.

The dual zone function can be activated by selecting the Dual Zone Selector key. The
extension zone can only be activated after a heat level of 1-9 is selected.
Heat Boost Function:
All heat zones are equipped with a heat boost function.
If the heat boost function is active then the heater will operate with maximum power
for the period of the heat boost time. This is indicated through a flashing “A”,
alternating with the heat setting value on the heater display. Once the heat boost time
has ended only the heat setting will be shown.
If the heat boost is to be used for a heater, heat level 9 must be selected by pressing
starting from level 0. After this “A”should alternately be displayed. The heat boost
can be turned off by pressing until heat setting “0”appears. The heat boost can be
activated again by pressing if the heat setting is set to 9. The display will flash
“A/9”.
Operating Time Limitation:
Every cooking zone will be switched off after a defined maximum operation time if the
heat setting is not modified. Every change to the cooking zone resets the timer of the
safety switch off function. The maximum operation time depends on the selected
temperature level.
Sensor Safety Cut Off:
To prevent the appliance from unwanted, random sensor operation, a sensor monitor
is included. In case one or more buttons are held for longer than 12 seconds, the
appliance will make a sound and switch off. The safety turn off causes the display to
flash “F”on all heaters displays.
Over Temperature Switch Off:
As the control panel is located fairly near a heater it is possible for an incorrectly
placed pan to heat up the glass of the control panel and cause damage. If this area
gets too hot it will switch off automatically and be indicated on the heater display with
the letter “t”until the temperature decreases.
