will go out once you have removed
the object and/or cleaned the soiling
and the cooktop will be ready to use
again.
Excessive operating time
The safety shut-off mechanism is trig-
gered automatically if a cooking zone is
heated for an unusually long period of
time. This time depends on the power
level selected. If the time has been ex-
ceeded, the cooking zone switches to
power level 1. If you turn the cooking
zone off and on again, it will be ready
for operation again.
The cooktop is programmed to safety
setting 0 at the factory. If required, you
can set a higher safety setting with a
shorter maximum operating time (see
table).
