OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Boost Function
The Boost function is available at each cooking zone. It is used to speed up the initial heat up time (say boil a pot of
water). Select a cooking zone and set the Heat level. While the decimal point on the display is lit, press the Boost
button. The display will alternate between “b” and the heat setting.
Note: The Boost function is not always available (depending on what else is being used), and if the power
requirements are exceeded, the display will flash with an alternative setting for 3 seconds. Do not leave the
appliance unattended while this function is active.
To disable the Boost function, press the Boost button for the cooking zone again (so the Decimal Point is lit) and
adjust the heat setting with the Sliding Button. The display will no longer alternate between “b” and the heat setting.
Locking the Keys
The child lock is used to set the appliance up so when it is first turned on, it is in a locked mode (which must be
unlocked before a cooking function can take place). While locked, touch modifications (e.g. increase heat settings)
and others will not be possible. It is only possible to switch the appliance off.
Turn the appliance on, but do not activate any functions. Press the Key lock button. The timer display will shows an
“Lo” and will remain locked even if the unit is turned off & on.
To unlock the unit, press the Key lock button and hold for a while. The “Lo” displays will switch back to the heat
settings and will not be active when the unit is next turned on.
The Key Lock button can be used to stop access to any functions (except the On/Off function) while the cooktop is
being used. Once the cooktop has been set up to cook, press the Key Lock button for 2 seconds until there is an
audible alarm and the key lock symbol will be lit. Repeat the process to remove the key lock (the key lock symbol
will no longer be lit). If the unit is turned off & on, the key lock will remain active.
Over-Temperature Switch Off
Because the controls are very close to the hotplates on the front of the cooktop, it is possible that a pot can be
placed half on the control and not sensed by the sensor safety cut off (not covering a sensor). This can cause the
cooktop to heat up to a very high temperature, which makes the glass and the buttons untouchable without burning
a finger.
To prevent the cooktop control unit from damage caused by overheating, a temperature sensor is available on the
touch control unit which will turn the appliance off when overheating occurs.
Minute-Minder (1 – 99 minutes)
The minute minder allows to set up a timer that does not affect the operation of the heating elements (the heating
elements must be off when set). Press the timer button & the timer display will show the current set time (to start,
00) with a blinking decimal point. Use the Sliding control to adjust the time. After 10 seconds of no changes, the
time will be set, the decimal point will stop blinking and the timer will begin to count down. At the end of the time,
the alarm will sound for 30 seconds unless stopped by pressing any button. The time can be adjusted at any time
by pressing the timer button to activate the timer & adjusting with the Sliding control.
