Overheating protection
All the induction coils and the cooling
elements for the electronics are fitted
with an overheating protection
mechanism. To prevent the induction
coils and cooling elements from
overheating, the overheating protection
mechanism works on the affected
cooking zone or on the entire hob in the
following ways:
–
If the Booster function is being used,
it will be switched off.
–
If the power level has been set
between 10 and 12 it will be reduced.
The power level set and the reduced
power level will alternate in the
display. The reduced power level is
also indicated by the number of lines
in the light-ring.
– If an induction coil is affected, the
relevant cooking zone switches itself
off automatically. The display first
shows a 0 and then the residual heat
indicator.
The cooking zone can only be used
again when the it has cooled down
sufficiently.
–
If the cooling element is affected, all
of the cooking zones will switch off
automatically and a 0 will alternate in
the display with the power level set.
As soon as the cooling elements have
cooled down sufficiently, the cooking
zones will automatically continue to
operate at the power setting previously
selected.
Overheating can be caused by:
–
Heating up an empty pan
–
Fats or oils being heated up on the
highest power setting.
–
There being insufficient ventilation to
the underside of the appliance.
If the overheating protection
mechanism triggers again, contact the
Service department.
