Safety lock

Keep children away from the cooktop
for their own safety.
Your appliance is equipped with a
safety lock to prevent the cooktop and
the cooking zones being switched on or
any settings being altered.
The safety lock can be activated when
the cooktop is switched off as well as
when it is in use.
If the safety lock is activated when the
cooktop is switched off, then the
cooktop cannot be switched on.
If the safety lock is activated when the
cooktop is in use:
– The settings for the cooking zones
and the timer settings cannot be
altered.
– The cooking zones and cooktop can
be switched off but once switched
off cannot be switched on again.
To activate the safety lock:
^ Touch the safety lock sensor $ until
the relevant indicator lamp comes on.
The indicator lamp will go out after a
short while.
The lamp will come on again to show
that the safety lock has been activated,
if
– you touch the safety lock $ sensor.
– you try to change a setting.
To deactivate the safety lock:
^ Touch the safety lock sensor $ until
the indicator lamp goes out.
You can alter the setting from one
finger to three finger operation (see
"Programming - P4") to make it harder
for children to operate the appliance.
Please note that the safety lock will
deactivate if there is a power cut.
