SAFETY
Before use, read the separate safety instructions first!
Temperature safety
A sensor continuously measures the temperature of certain parts of the hob. Every cooking zone
is equipped with a sensor that measures the temperature of the bottom of the pan to avoid any
risk of overheating when a pan boils dry. In case of temperatures rising too high, the power is
reduced automatically or the hob switches off automatically.
Cooking-time limiter
The cooking-time limiter is a safety function of your cooking appliance. It will operate
if you forget to switch off your hob. Depending on the setting you have chosen, the
cooking time will be limited as follows:
Cooking level
