Safety lock / System lock
Keep children away from the hob for their own safety. Your
appliance is equipped with a safety lock and a system lock to
prevent the hob and the cooking zones being switched on or
any settings being altered.
The safety lock is activated when the hob is switched on. If
the safety lock is activated:
–
The cooking zone power levels and the timer settings
cannot be changed.
–
The cooking zones, the hob and the timer can be switched
off, but once switched off cannot be switched on again.
The system lock is activated when the hob is switched off. If
the system lock is activated, the hob cannot be switched on
and the timer cannot be used.
The hob is programmed in such a way that activating the
system lock has to be done manually. The setting can be
changed so that the system lock is activated automatically
five minutes after the hob has been switched off (see
"Programming").
When the safety lock or the system lock is activated and a
sensor which is not permitted is touched,
–
L will appear in the display for the front left cooking zone
and C will appear in the display for the front right cooking
zone for approx. 3 seconds.
–
the tone (which sounds when a sensor is touched) sounds
for longer than normal (hobs with a double circle/extended
zone)
–
the indicator lamp lights up (hobs with single circle zones
only)
If there is an interruption to the power supply, the safety
lock and the system lock will be deactivated.
