In the event of overheating the result will be that the cooking zone in
question or all the cooking zones will display one of the following
reactions:
– the hob will reduce the power supplied slightly (this is not visible in
the cooking settings in the displays);
– if this does not help, the hob switch off and a series of dashes will
appear in the displays.
As soon as the cooking zone(s) has/have cooled down sufficiently, the
dashes disappear and the cooking zones remain switched off.
Prevent the overheating protection becoming activated by:
– using pans that are good conductors of heat;
– heating up fat or oil at a lower setting;
– making sure there is sufficient ventilation.
If, despite the above-mentioned measures having been taken, the
overheating protection becomes activated again, contact the service
department or a professionally qualified specialist.

USE
Safety hob
– A sensor continuously measures the temperature of certain parts of
the hob. In case of temperatures rising too high, the power is reduced
automatically.
– As soon as you remove the pan from the hob, the cooking zone
automatically stops. Accustom yourself to stop the cooking zone or
hob manually to avoid unintended switching on of the induction
hob.
Safety pans
Every cooking zone is equipped with a sensor that measures the
temperature of the bottom of the pan to avoid any risk of overheating
when a pan boils dry.
Safety metal parts
A small part like a pan that is too little (smaller than 12 cm), a fork or a
spoon is not recognised as a pan by the induction hob. The display of the
cooking setting continues to flash and the zone will not switch on.
Overheatingprotection
The appliance may become overheated if:
– the pan does not conduct the heat adequately;
– fat or oil is heated at a high setting;
– there is insufficient circulation of air (see also ventilation protection
in the installation part of this manual).
