the object or cleaned the hob and the
hob will be ready to use again.
Excessive operating time
The safety switch-off mechanism is
triggered automatically if a cooking
zone is heated for an unusually long
period of time. This time depends on
the power level selected. If it has been
exceeded, the cooking zone switches
off and the residual heat indicator
appears. If you switch the cooking zone
on and off again, it is ready for
operation again.
The hob 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
chart).
