Timer Function
(countdown clock)
This function facilitates cooking given
that you don't have to be present: You
can set a timer for a plate, and it will
turn off once the desired time is up.

simultaneously program each plate
for durations ranging from 1 to 90
minutes.
Setting a timer on a plate.
Once the power level is set on the
desired zone, and while the decimal
dot of the zone keeps on, the zone
will be able to be timed.
To that end:
1 Touch sensor
(10) or
Timer Indicator (12) will show "00"
and corresponding zone indicator
(3) will show the symbol
alternately with its current power
level.
2 Immediately afterwards set a
cooking time between 1 and 99
minutes, using the sensors
ó
(11). With the first one the
value will start at 60, whereas with
the second it will start at 01. By
keeping sensors
(10) ó
pressed, the value will be restored
to 00. When there is less than one
minute left, the clock will begin to
count down in seconds.
3 . When the timer indicator (12) stops
flashing, it will start to count down
the time automatically. The indicator
(3) relating to the timed hotplate
will alternately display the selected
power level and the symbol
Once the selected cooking time has
elapsed, the heating zone being timed
is turned off and the clock emits a
series of beeps for several seconds.
To turn off the audible signal, touch
any sensor.The timer indicator (12)
will display a flashing 00 beside of
the decimal dot (4) of the selected
zone. If the heating zone turned off is
hot, its power indicator (3) will display
alternately the H symbol and a "-".
If you wish to time another hotplate
at the same time, repeat steps 1 to 3.
If one or more zones are already
timed, the timer indicator (12) will
show by default the shortest remaining
time to finish, showing a "t" on the
related zone. Rest of timed zones will
show on their corresponding indicator
zones the decimal dot blinking. When
cursor "slider" of another timed zone
is pressed, the timer will show the
remaining time of that zone for a few
seconds and its indicator will show
its power level and the "t" alternately.
Changing the programmed time.
For modifying programmed time,
cursor "slider" (2) of timed zone has
to be pressed. Then it will be possible
to read and modify the time.

Through sensors
you can modify the programmed time.

Disconnecting the clock
If you wish to stop the clock before the
programmed time is up, this can be
done at any time by simply adjusting
its value to '--'.

Power Management function
(depending on model)
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

appear on the timer indicator (12)
(10) and

(11) touch key for
2 Press the locking touch key
The different power values to which
the hob can be limited will appear
and these can be changed using
the
(11) and
(10) sensors.
3 Once the value has been selected,
once again press the locking touch
key
(6). The hob will be limited
to 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
will again be able to enter the power
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
hotplates. Sometimes it will not be
enough to lower another by a single
level as this depends on the power of
each hotplate and the level it is set at.
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
maximum power function and the
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).
Safety switch off function
If due to an error one or several
heating zones do not switch off, the
appliance will be automatically discon-
nected after a set amount of time (see
table 2).
