Power Management
The cooking zones of the cooking surface
have a maximum power.
The maximum power is reached when the
heat setting 8 has been set for all cooking
zones.
Two cooking zones generate a pair (see fig-
ure) and therefore, the power management
shares the maximum available power be-
tween these cooking zones.

When the power function is selected for one
cooking zone, the power management
makes the additional power for this cooking
zone available by reducing the power of the
corresponding other cooking zone.
Example: the heat setting 8 is selected on
one cooking zone. The power function is
switched on for the corresponding cooking
zone. The power function is carried out but
the heat setting 8 of one of the cooking zones
and the power function for the other cooking
zone of the pair exceed the maximum power
for both at the same time. For this purpose,
the power management reduces the power
of the cooking zone that switched on first
from 8 to example 5 and the display of this
cooking zone changes between 8 and 5 and
then stays at the current possible maximum
5. (If the display changes between 8 and 5 or
8 and 3 or another value depends on the type
of appliance and the size of the cooking
zone.).
