Overheating protection
The hob is fitted with a protection device for electronic
components; in the event of overheating the power of
the hotplates is limited automatically. This could influence
cooking times slightly.
Safety switch
The appliance has a safety switch which automatically
switches off the cooking zones when they have been in
operation for a certain amount of time at a given power
level. When the safety switch has been triggered, the
display shows "0".
For example: the rear hotplate is set to 5 and will switch
off after 7,5 hours of continuous operation, while the front
hotplate is set to 2 and will switch off after 9,5 hours.
