The safety turn-off causes the hob con-
trol to be turned off and to switch to the
S mode. An ´F` will flash in all heater
displays.
Any residual heat present will be dis-
played on all the other heater displays.
The hob control will then go into S
mode. At the same time a buzzer sig-
nal will appear. After 10 minutes, the
acoustic signalling will stop.
If erroneous operation is no longer pre-
sent, both the visual and the acoustic
signal will disappear.
Over-Temperature Switch-Off
Because the control is placed very
close to the heater in the centre front of
the hob, it can occur that an incorrectly
placed pot might be situated only half-
way on the control and not sensed by
the sensor safety cut off (not covering a
button), heats the hob up to a very high
temperature, which makes the glass
and the buttons hot enough to burn fin-
gers..
To prevent the hob control unit from be-
ing damaged, the control monitors the
temperature all the time and switches
off in case of overheating emergency. It
is indicated in the heater 4 heater dis-
play with the letter ´t` for all the time un-
til the temperature decreases.
As the temperature drops, the ´t` dis-
plays will be erased and the hob con-
trol unit falls back into the S mode. This
means that the user can reactivate the
appliance by touching
Operating Time Limitations
The hob control unit has limits the op-
erating time. If the heat setting for this
heater has not been changed for a cer-
tain length of time, than the heater will
turn off automatically (for 10 sec a ´0`
is displayed, afterwards the residual
heat). The limit of the operating time de-
pends of the selected heat setting. If a
timer is associated with the heater, then
´00` will display on the timer display for
10 sec. Afterwards, the timer display
turns off.
After the heater turns off automatically
as described above, the heater is oper-
able again and the maximum operating
time for this heat setting is applied.
