Touch Control Safety Functions
The following safety functions are avail-
able to avoid unintended operations.
Sensor Safety Cut-Off
To prevent the appliance from unwanted
button operation, button monitoring is in-
cluded. In cases where one or more but-
tons are pressed for longer than 12 sec-
onds, there is an audible noise to indicate
an incorrect operation (pot or other object
placed on the button, sensor failure, etc.)
and the appliance switches off .
The safety turn off causes the hob to
go into S-Mode. An “F” will fl ash in all
heater displays.
If residual heat is present, “H” will be dis-
played on all other heater displays.
The hob control will then go into S-Mode.
At the same time a buzzer sounds. After
10 minutes the buzzer will stop.
If there is no erroneous operation
present, both the visual and the audible
signals will disapear.
Over Temperature Switch-Off
Due to the controls being very close to
the heater in the middle of the front of
the hob, it can occur that an incorrectly
placed pot is not sensed by the sensor
safety cut-off therefore heating up the
hob to a very high temperature. This
makes the glass and the buttons dan-
gerous to touch. To prevent the hob
control unit from damage, the controls
constantly monitor the temperature and
switch off if overheating occurs.
This will be indicated by the letter “t“ in
the heater display until the temperature
decreases.
Once the temperature has dropped,
the “t” in the heater display will disap-
pear and the hob control unit will revert
back into S-Mode. This means that the
user can reactivate the appliance by
pressing .
Operating Time Limitations
The hob control unit has a limitation on
the operating time. If the heat setting for
a heater has not been changed for a cer-
tain time, the heater will switch off auto-
matically. A “0” will be displayed for 10
