Burners seem to reduce
heat automatically
after prolonged use at
high settings, even
though the setting
shown in the display
remains unchanged.
An automatic safety mechanism
reduces heat to protect the
cooktop and its surroundings from
overheating.
This is normal and requires no
action. Once the burners have
cooled to a temperature
threshold, they will
automatically power back to the
displayed setting. To minimise
the need for this mechanism,
use the wok burner for
prolonged high-heat cooking,
and ensure that the pot is not
larger than 40 cm across its
base.
