OPERATION
If none of the sensor fields is touched within 15 seconds of switching on the
appliance, the cooking zone switches off.
A cooking zone is active when a number is brighter on its display. This indicates
a cooking zone is ready for the heat setting to be set or changed.
Selecting the cooking zone heat setting
When the cooking zone display (3) shows bright "0," start setting the desired heat setting by
sliding your finger across the setting selection sensor field (2).
Booster function "P"
Booster function increases cooking zone power
Ø 260 mm cooking zone from 2300W to 3000W,
Ø 180 mm cooking zone from 2300W to 3000W,
Ø 180 mm cooking zone from 1400W to 2000W,
Ø 160 mm cooking zone from 1200W to 1400W.
In order to activate the Booster function, select the cooking zone (8), with sensor (2) set the
heat setting to "P". The letter "P" will be shown on the display.
To turn off the Booster function select appropriate cooking zone using sensor (8) and using
sensor (2) reduce the heat setting to "0".
For 260 mm, 220 mm and 180 mm cooking zone, operation of the Booster function
is limited to 5 minutes. Once the Booster function is automatically deactivated,
the cooking zone continues to operate at its nominal power.
The Booster function can be reactivated, provided the appliance electronic circuits
and induction coils are not overheated.
When the pot is lifted from the cooking zone when the Booster function is in
operation, it remains active and the countdown continues.
When the appliance electronic circuits or induction coils overheat when the
Booster function is in operation, it is automatically deactivated. The cooking zone
continues to operate at its nominal power.
Booster function control
Depending on the model, the cooking zones are paired vertically or crosswise. Total power
is shared within the paired cooking zones..
If you attempt to enable the Booster function for both cooking zones simultaneously, the maxi-
mum power available would be exceeded. In that case the heat setting of the first activated
cooking zone will be reduced to the highest level available.
If activating Booster function causes the overall power limit of a pair to be
exceeded, the heat setting of the other cooking zone in a pair will be automati-
cally reduced.
