Overheating protection
All the induction coils and cooling ele-
ments for the electronics are fitted with
an overheating protection mechanism.
Before the induction coils and/or cool-
ing elements get too hot, the overheat-
ing protection mechanism cuts in in one
of the following ways:
Induction coils
- Any Booster function in operation will
be switched off.
- The set power level will be reduced.
- The cooking zone turns off automat-
ically. will flash alternately
within the timer display.
You can use the cooking zone again as
usual when the fault code has gone out.
Cooling elements
- Any Booster function in operation will
be switched off.
- The set power level will be reduced.
- The cooking zones switch off auto-
matically.
The affected cooking zones can only be
used again as usual once the cooling
element has cooled down to a safe
level.
The overheating protection may be ac-
tivated under the following circum-
stances:
- The pan being heated is empty.
- Fat or oil is being heated on a high
power level.
- There is insufficient ventilation to the
underside of the hob.
- A hot cooking zone is switched on
after an interruption to the power
supply.
If, despite removing the cause, the
overheating protection mechanism trig-
gers again, contact the Customer Ser-
vice Department.
