plate(s) will switch off automatically
after the set time has lapsed. There
is a separate timer for each hot plate,
which allows all of the hot plates to be
timed simultaneously.
With these models you can use the
clock as a timer for the hotplates for
times ranging from 1 to 99 minutes. All
the cooking areas can be programmed
individually and in a simultaneous
manner.
Timing one hotplate
1 The cooking zone to be timed must
be selected. The related decimal
point must be lit up.
2 Choose a power level from 1 to
9 for the hotplate using the touch
slider key (6).
3 Press the clock touch key
It is enough to simply tap it; do not
keep it pressed for more than two
seconds or the locking function will
be activated. The time indicator (7)
will display 00.

minutes, using the touch slider key
(6). It can also be selected by using
the "+" and "-" touch keys of the sli-
der. (6). With the first the value will
start at 1, whereas with the second
it will start at 60. By keeping the "-"
touch key pressed for at least 2
seconds, the value will be restored
to 00.
When the clock indicator (7) stops
flashing, it will start to count down the
time automatically. The indicator (3)
relating to the timed hotplate will alter-
nately display the selected power level
and the
. When the clock reaches
01, it will switch from counting down
minutes to seconds.
Once the selected cooking time has
elapsed, the heating zone being timed
is turned off and the clock emits a se-
ries of beeps for several seconds. The
timer indicator will display a flashing 00
beside the indicator of the hotplate that
has been disconnected.
If you wish to time another hotplate at
the same time, repeat steps 3 and 4.

above. If the "-" touch key is pressed
for at least two seconds the timer will
reset to zero and it will be discon-

Fondue function
(depending on model)
This function is specially intended for
melting butter, cheese, chocolate, etc.
It uses a power level that is lower than
level 1. To access the function:

To deactivate the function it is enough

Synchro function
(depending on model)
Using this function, it is possible that
two hotplates, identified in the screen
printing, work jointly, both to select a
power level as well as to activate the
timer function.
To activate this function simultane-
ously
press the two related selection touch
keys (4). On doing this, the two de-
cimal points (9) of the hotplates will
light up and they will both be set to
power level 0.
To deactivate this function, again
simultaneously press the two related
selection touch keys (4).
Power Management function
(depending on model)
Some models are equipped with a
power limiting function. This function
allows the total power generated by
the hob to be set to different values

selected by the user. To do this, for the
first minute after having connected the
hob to the power supply, it is possible
to access the power limiting menu..
1 Press the "+" touch key for three
seconds. The letter PL will appear
on the clock (7), if the model has a
timer or on the hotplate indicators
(if it is not equipped with one).
2 Press the locking touch key (8). The
different power values to which the
hob can be limited will appear and
these can be changed using the "+"
and "-" touch keys.

the chosen power value.
If you want to change the value again,
you must unplug the hob and plug it in
again after a few seconds. Thus you

limiting menu.
Every time the power level of a hotpla-
te is changed, the power limiter will
calculate the total power the hob is
generating. If you have reached the
total power limit, the touch control will
not allow you to increase the power
level of that hotplate. The hob will beep
and the power indicator (3) will blink
at the level that cannot be exceeded.
If you wish to exceed that value, you
must lower the power of the other
hotplates. Sometimes it will not be
enough to lower another by a single
level as this depends on the power of
