The display shows the current state of plate temperature (residual heat indicator):
L (low) for temperatures below 50 °C or
H (hot) for temperatures exceeding 50 °C.
c) Switching on
Place a suitable cooking utensil in the middle of the desired cooking surface and touch the main
switch until there is an audible signal. Now the cooktop is ready for use, what is verifi ed by the
blinking of the LED display “POWER”. You can now choose between setting the power, the tem-
perature or the time. Having pressed any of those buttons, the LED display “POWER” will glow
permanently and the appliance will start operation at power level 5.
If there is no further input within 60 seconds after having started the operating mode,
the appliance will automatically switch over to the stand-by mode.
d) Pot recognition
If there is no recognition of a suitable cookware on the cooktop after switch-on, the display
will indicate “---“, accompanied by a periodical audible warning signal.
If there is no pot recognition within 15 seconds, the appliance will automatically switch over to
the stand-by mode.
In the event a pot is removed from the cooktop during use, the display will indicate “---“,
accompanied by a periodical audible warning signal. Re-placing a pot within 15 seconds will
cause the cooking plate to resume operation at the level last set, while any operating time
possibly set before will continue to count down.
Provided there is no pot recognition within 15 seconds, the appliance will automatically switch
over to the stand-by mode.
e) Switching off
To switch off during use or operational readiness, activate the main button until there is an
audible signal and all the displays except the ON/STANDBY display extinguish. Now the control
is in the stand-by mode and the display shows the current state of plate temperature (residual
heat indicator):
L (low) for temperatures below 50 °C or
H (hot) for temperatures exceeding 50 °C.
If the appliance is disconnected from the mains, this indication will extinguish.
Note: After an extended use, it is normal for the fan to continue running in the stand-by mode.
Our tip:
Electrical appliances featuring a stand-by mode consume some power also in non-operating
state. Save energy by disconnecting your unit from the mains during non-use periods by pulling
the mains plug.
