Power Management function
Some models are equipped with
a power limiting function (Power
Management). 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
(11) touch key for
three seconds. The letter PL will
appear on the timer indicator (12)

the hob can be limited will appear

limiting menu.
Every time the power level of a
hotplate 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

It is possible that to raise the level of
a large hotplate that of several smaller
ones must be turned down.
If you use the quick switch-on at

said value is above the value set by
the limit, the hotplate will be set to the
maximum possible level. The hob will
beep and the said power value will
blink twice on the indicator (3).

The Chef functions operate correctly
with pans with the same ferromagnetic
area on the base of the pan as the
area of the cooking zone. In addition,
for high temperature functions (above
100ºC), pans must have a flat, even
base (preferably "sandwich" type) as
shown in figure 7.

To ensure the correct operation of
these functions, it is important that the
pan and the cooking zone are not hot
at the start of the process.
Further information about suitable
pans (saucepans, frying pans, grills,
etc.) is given on the Teka web page.
