Basic operation
The glass ceramic cooking zone is
equipped with electronic sensor but-
tons that react to finger contact. During
activation, the On/Off sensor button
must be pressed somewhat longer than
the other buttons for safety reasons.
Each reaction of the buttons is ac-
knowledged with an acoustic signal.
When the cooktop is turned off, only the
pressed symbols for the On/Off and
System Lock/Safety Lock sensor
buttons are visible. When you switch on
the cooktop, all other sensor buttons
light up. When you turn on the cooking
zone, the sensor button lights up in
brightness level 2, and the through
sensor buttons light up in brightness
level 1.
When you set a power level, the sen-
sor buttons light up to the set power
stage in brightness level 2.
If the booster or keep warm function is
set, the corresponding sensor button
lights up in brightness level 2.
Malfunction can occur due to
dirty and/or covered sensor controls.
If the sensor controls are dirty or
covered this could cause them to fail
to react, to activate a function, or
even to switch the cooktop off auto-
matically (see "Safety features –
Safety shut-off"). Placing hot cook-
ware on the sensor controls/indica-
tors can damage the electronic un-
derneath.
Keep the sensor controls and indica-
tors clean.
Do not place anything over the sen-
sor controls or indicators.
Do not place hot cookware over the
sensor controls or indicators.
