Power Management
Thecookingzonesofthecookingsurfacehave
a maximum power.
Themaximumpowerisreachedwhentheheat
setting 9 has been set for all cooking zones.
Twocookingzonesgenerateapair(seefigure)
and therefore, the power management shares
the maximum available power between these
cooking zones.
When the power functionis selected forone
cooking zone, the power management makes
theadditionalpowerforthiscookingzoneavail-
able by reducing the power of the correspond-
ing other cooking zone.
Example: the heat setting 9 is selected on one
cooking zone. The power function is switched
on for the correspondingcooking zone.The
power function is carried out but theheat set-
ting9ofone of thecookingzonesandthe pow-
erfunctionfortheothercookingzoneofthepair
exceed the maximum power for both at the
same time. For this purpose, the power man-
agement reduces the power of the cooking
zone that switched onfirst from 9 to example 5
and the display of thiscooking zonechanges
between9 and 5 and thenstays at the current
possible maximum 5. (If the display changes
between 9 and 5 or 9 and 3 or another value
depends on the type of appliance and the size
of the cooking zone.).
Using the timer
All cooking zones can use each use one of the
two timer functions at the same time.

function set is also switched off. 3Ifaheatsettingissetonthiscookingzone

The minimum distancesto other appliances
and units are to be observed.
Anti-shock protection must be provided by the
installation, for example drawers may only be
installed with a protective floor directly under-
neath the appliance.
The cut surfaces of the worktop are to be pro-
tected against moisture using a suitable seal-
ant.
Thesealantsealstheappliancetotheworktop

Do not use silicon sealant between the appli-
ance and the work top.
When building in, protect the underside of the
appliancefromsteamandmoisture,e.g.froma

Avoidinstallingtheappliancenexttodoorsand
under windows. Otherwise hot cookware may
be knocked off the rings when doors and win-
dows are opened.
zRisk of injury from electrica

•Have the clamping connections correctly in-
stalled by a qualified electrician.
•Use strain relief clamp on cable.
•In the event of single-phase or two-phase
connection, the appropriate mains cable of
type H05BB-F Tmax 90°C(or higher) or an
equivalent type must be used.
•Ifthisappliance’smainscableisdamaged,it
must be replaced by a specialcable(type

alent type. The latter is availablefrom the
Customer Care Department.
A device must be provided in the electrical in-
stallation which allows the appliance to be dis-
connected from the mains atall poles with a
contact opening widthof at least 3 mm.
Suitable isolation devices include line protect-
ing cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses are tobe
removed from the holder), earth leakage trips
and contactors.
