Control Panel

Safety switch: The appliance has a safety switch which automatically switches the cooking zones off after they have been in operation for a certain amount of time at a particular power level. When the safety switch has been triggered, the display shows “0”. For example: the right rear hotplate is set to 5 and will switch off after 5 hours of continuous operation, while the front left hotplate is set to 2 and will switch off after 8 hours. When one or more keys are activated for more than 10 sec. the touch control. switches off A warning beep sounds is emitted every 10 sec., while the key/s is/are activated. With all heaters at zero power during 10 sec. the Cooktop is switched off. If the switching off is due to an accidental activation of keys, the touch control actuates as above.

Control panel lock: When the hob is switched on, it is possible to lock the oven controls in order to avoid accidental changes being made to the settings (by children, during cleaning, etc.). Press the (lock) button to lock the control panel: the icon will illuminate and an audible beep sound will be emmited. To use any of the controls (e.g. to stop cooking), you must switch off this function. Press the (lock) button for a few moments, the icon will stop illuminating and the lock function will be removed.

Switching on the hob: When power is initially applied to the Cooktop, the touch control conducts a calibration process for the touch keys, which requires a low level of ambient light in the area of the touch keys. If excessive ambient lighting is detected, the User Interface displays „FL” error and the calibration is suspended. The error will disappear when satisfactory ambient lighting is detected and the touch control calibration procedure will now complete satisfactorily.

Initial Light Conditions: When power is initially applied to the Cooktop, the touch control conducts a calibration process for the touch keys, which requires a low level of ambient light in the area of the touch keys. If during this calibration process excessive ambient lighting is detected the User Interface displays „FL” (Infrared Ambient Light Error) and the control calibration process is suspended. In order to rectify the process any lighting that could effect the calibration process should be switched off (e.g. halogen cooker hood lighting). The error will disappear when satisfactory ambient lighting is detected and the touch control calibration procedure will now complete satisfactorily.

Cleaning The Appliance

Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for example, products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues and ovens), stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the surface beyond repair. Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

  1. It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen towel.
  2. If the hob is particularly dirty, rub it with a special glass ceramic cleaning product, then rinse well and dry thoroughly.
  3. To remove more stubborn dirt, use a suitable scraper. Remove spills as soon as possible, without waiting for the appliance to cool, to avoid residues forming crusty deposits. You can achieve excellent results by using a rust-proof steel wire sponge – specifically designed for glass ceramic surfaces – soaked in soapy water.
  4. If any plastic or sugary substances are accidentally melted on the hob, remove them immediately with the scraper, while the surface is still hot.
