Power boost function
Power boost is activated by turning the control clockwise from level 9. Only one coil
can be boosted at a time.
The IH21 is rated at 3kW total input, therefore:
If the rear coil (2kW) is power boosted, its power increases to 3kW and the front coil
will be shut down.
If the front coil (1kW) is power boosted, its power increases to 1.8kW and the rear coil
is limited to 1.2kW.
The power boost will run for a maximum of 10 minutes before reverting to level 9. It
may be boosted again, providing the system internal temperatures are satisfactory.
Automatic heat-up control (AHC)
When activated, the AHC will give maximum power (level 9) to a coil for a preset time
before reducing to a lower power level set by the control. To activate, the control is
turned anticlockwise from the 'Off' position briefly whilst the 'A' symbol illuminates: the
control is then turned clockwise to set the 'final' required power (1-8). The display
reverts to the 'A' symbol and the hob will run at maximum power for the time shown in
the table, before reducing power to the 'final' setting.

Control lock function
This function prevents unwanted operation of the hob. When the control lock is active,
the 'L' symbol is displayed. It is activated and de-activated by turning either control
knob anticlockwise to the control lock position and held for approximately 6 seconds.
Pan detection function
This prevents the coils being turned on without a pan being present, and also turns off
the coil as soon as a pan is removed. If the pan is of the wrong material for induction
equipment, the 'no pan present' symbol is displayed. After use, switch off the hob via
the control and do not rely on the pan detector.
