zone will begin to heat up.
Once the cooking zone has been selected, the setting can be se-
lected by keeping the PLUS (3) button pressed down. The setting
begins at level 1 and increases by 1 level every 0.4 seconds. When
setting "9" is reached, the setting will not be changed further.
If the setting level has been selected using the MINUS (2) button,
the start level is "9" (maximum level). Keep the button pressed
down to lower the active level by 1 every 0.4 seconds. When set-
ting "0" is reached, there will be no further setting changed. The
setting can only be changed by pressing the MINUS (2) or PLUS
(3) button again.
Switching a cooking zone off
Select the zone to be switched off using the corresponding but-
ton (5). The display (6) of the zone selected lights up, while the
remaining displays are dimmed. Press the PLUS (3) and MINUS
(2) buttons at the same time and the setting level of the zone is
changed to 0. Alternatively, the MINUS button (2) can be used to
reduce the setting level to 0.
If a cooking zone is "hot", "H" and "0" will be alternately displayed.
Switching all cooking zones off
Press the ON/OFF (1) button to immediately switch off all zones
at any time. In standby mode, an "H" is displayed in all cooking
zones that are "hot". The remaining displays will be switched off.
Setting level
The cooking zone can be set to 9 levels that are indicated by the
numbers "1" to "9" on the seven-segment LED displays (6).
Residual heat indicator
This informs the user that the glass is at a dangerous temperatu-
re in the event of touching the area located around the cooking
zone. The temperature is determined by a mathematical model
and any residual heat is indicated by a "H" on the corresponding
7-segment display.
Heating and cooling are calculated based on:
· The selected setting level (between "0" and "9")
· The ON/OFF time.
After switching off the cooking zone, the corresponding display
will indicate "H" until the temperature in the zone has dropped
below the critical level (≤ 60°C).
Automatic off function (operating time limitation)
In terms of the setting level, if no operation occurs each cooking
zone switches off after an established maximum time.
Each operation in the cooking zone condition (using the PLUS (3)
and MINUS (2) or dual zone) restarts the maximum operating
time of the zone by resetting it to its initial value.
Protection against unintended switching on
· If the electronic control detects a button being held down for
approx. 10 sec. it will switch off automatically. The control sends
out an audible error signal to warn the user that the sensors have
detected the presence of an object. The displays indicate error
code " E R 0 3 ". If the cooking zone is in "hot" mode, "H" will be
indicated alternately on the display with the error signal.
· If no cooking zone is activated within 20 seconds after switching
on the touch control, it will return to standby mode.
· When the control is switched on, the ON/OFF button has priority
over all other button and, therefore, the control can be switched
off at any time, even when several buttons are pressed at the
same time or a button is kept held down.
· In standby mode, no effect will be caused by buttons being kept
held down. However, before the electronic control can be swit-
ched back on, it has to detect that no button is pressed down.
Button lock (child safety feature)
• Child safety feature:
Button lock:
To activate the child safety feature after having switched on the
Touch control, press de rear left cooking zone selection button at
the same time as the MINUS button (2) for 3 seconds, followed by
just the rear left cooking zone selection button. An "L" standing
for LOCKED (child safety feature preventing unintended switch
on) will be indicated on all displays. If a cooking zone is in "hot"
mode, "L" and "H" will be alternately displayed.
This operation must take place within a 10 successive seconds
and no button other than those described must be pressed.
Otherwise, the sequence will be interrupted and the hob will not
be locked.
The electronic control remains locked until it unlocked by the
user, even if it has been switched off and back on meanwhile. Not
even touch control resetting (after a voltage drop) will interrupt
the button lock.
Cancelling the button lock:
After switching the touch control on, the child safety feature can
be disabled. Press the rear left cooking zone selection button and
the MINUS button (2) for 3 seconds, followed by just the MINUS
button (2). If all operations are carried out in the right order within
10 seconds, the button lock will be cancelled and the touch con-
trol switched off. Otherwise, the sequence will be considered in-
complete and the touch control will remain locked and will switch
off after 20 seconds.
Switch the touch control back on using the ON/OFF button and
all displays will be indicate "0", the decimal points will flash and
the touch control will be ready for cooking. If a cooking zone is in
"hot" mode, "0" and "H" will be alternately displayed.
Control of multiple circuits
Hobs without double or triple circuit, see Fig. 2A
Hob with double zone. (Fig. 2B)
When a dual cooking zone is activated, the two circuits are swit-
ched on at the same time. Activation of the external circuit is indi-
cated by a pilot light (7) in the bottom right corner of the display.
If only the internal circuit is to be switched on, the external circuit
can be switched off using the dual circuit button (4). Press the
dual circuit button (4) again to re-activate the external circuit and
the corresponding pilot light (7) will switch on.
