Safety devices
Residual heat indicators
Each cooking zone is equipped with a residual heat
indicator. This indicator signals which cooking zones are
still at a high temperature. If the power display shows
, the cooking zone is still hot. It is possible, for example,
to keep a dish warm or melt butter or chocolate. As the
cooking zone cools, the power display will show . The
display switches off when the cooking zone has cooled
sufficiently.
Overheating protection
If the electronic elements overheat, the hob switches off
automatically and
F appears on the display, followed by
a flashing number. When the temperature has reached
a suitable level, this message disappears and the hob
may be used again.
Safety switch
The appliance has a safety switch which automatically
switches the cooking zones off after they have been in
operation for a certain amount of time at a particular
power level. When the safety switch has been triggered,
the display shows “0”.
For example: the right rear hotplate is set to 5 and will
switch off after 5 hours of continuous operation, while the
front left hotplate is set to 2 and will switch off after 8 hours.

Buzzer
This can also indicate several irregularities:
An object (a pan, cutlery, etc.) has been placed on
the control panel for more than 10 seconds.
Something has been spilt on the control panel.
A button has been pressed for too long. All of the above
situations may cause the buzzer to sound. Remove
the cause of the malfunction to stop the buzzer. If the
cause of the problem is not removed, the buzzer will
keep sounding and the hob will switch off.
