Safety lock

Keep children away from the hob for
their own safety.
Your appliance is equipped with a
safety lock to prevent the hob and the
cooking zones being switched on or
any settings being altered.
The safety lock can be activated when
the hob is switched off as well as when
it is in use.
If the safety lock is activated when the
hob is switched off, then the hob
cannot be switched on.
If the safety lock is activated when the
hob is in use, please note the
following:
– The settings for the cooking zones
and the timer settings cannot be
changed.
– The cooking zones and hob can be
switched off but once switched off
cannot be switched on again.
