2.Bring the setting down to “0” by means of the “-“ key (4). After 3 seconds, the burner goes off
automatically.
3.
If the cooking zone is “hot” “0” is displayed alternatively with “H”
Turning off the burner instantly:
1.The burner concerned must be on.
2.If you touch the “+” and “-“ keys (5-4) simultaneously, the burner goes off immediately.
3.
If the cooking zone is “hot” “0” is displayed alternatively with “H”.
Residual heat indicator (Fig 9)
As long as the temperature of the burner remains high enough to cause injury, the display corresponding to
the burner shows the “H” symbol (residual heat)
alternatively with “0” symbol. This indication only disappears
when there is no longer any danger (at 60°C).
To save energy, turn off the burner in advance, in order to exploit the residual heat.
The residual heat indicator “H” is lost in the event of a mains power cut lasting more than 3 seconds.
Turning off the cook top (Fig 10)
The cook top can be turned off at any time by means of the on/off key (1).
The display shows a “H” as long as the temperature remains above 60°C.
6. Safety cut-out
If one or more burners are accidentally left on, the control automatically turns them off after a certain time
has elapsed. The table below indicates the time interval, which depends on the power level setting.
Level Time limit (hours)

P 10 min.
If the safety cut-out has tripped, the symbol “H” is displayed.
To avoid the automatic cut-out being tripped, simply touch the burner selection key or the “+” or “-“ keys
before the time runs out.
7.Automatic preheating (For vitro ceramic plates only - BF23SS model)
This automatic device facilitates the cooking process because you do not need to supervise the whole
cooking cycle.
Enabling automatic preheating (Fig 11)
Select level 9 by means of the “-“ key, then select level 9 with the “+” key.
The decimal point (7) in the related cooking zone display flash on.
Finally select the required power setting, e.g. level 6, with the “-“ key.
Example: Select level 9 to enable automatic preheating with the “+” key. Then bring the level down to 6
using the “-“ key. In this way, the burner will be preheated on full power for 1’11”1. After 1’11” the
burner will return to the power level 6.
Level Time limit

Changing the power level in the automatic preheating phase
1. The burner involved must be on. The decimal point (7) for the corresponding burner must also be on.
