LOCK FUNCTION (models ...604)
Using the sensor lock (5) you can lock the entire unit, except the on/off sensor key (1), in order to protect the unit from unwanted use. This is a useful safety func- tion when there are children in the home. When the lock is activated, the light (10) goes on.
If you turn off the device using the on/off sensor key (1) at the same time that the lock is activated, the device will continue to be locked the next time it is turned on.
Function for keeping a pan hot
(models …622)
Using this function, it is possible to keep food hot in a pan placed on the cooking area.
1 There is a pan on one of the heating ele- ments at a previously selected cooking temperature.
2 It is necessary to touch sensor (12), after which the symbol will appear in the indicator.
To disconnect this function, just touch sen- sor (12) again and the heating element will turn off, or, as an alternative, it is pos- sible to touch sensor (2) and change to level 1. This function will only work for a maximum of 120 minutes, after which the hob will disconnect.
Timer function
This feature enables you to do your coo- king while you are not present: You can set the timer for a hotplate and it will switch itself off automatically when this time has
elapsed.
Around the selected time display there are 4 or 3 pilot lights that indicate which hotpla- te is being timed. For example, if you time the upper left hotplate as you look at the appliance, the pilot light that will come will be the one above the display and to the left.
Where no hotplate is being timed (no pilot light (9) is on), the clock can be used as a countdown timer (see the section "The clock as a countdown timer").
You can use the clock as a countdown timer for periods of between 1 and 99 minutes, and as a hotplate timer for times of between 1 and 99 minutes. All the coo- king areas can be programmed indepen- dently and simultaneously.
Timing a hotplate
1 The hotplate to be timed has to be selec- ted. The corresponding decimal point (11) must be lit.
2 Select a power level of between 1 and 9 using the or sensors (2/4).
3 Touch the clock sensor (7). The deci- mal point (11) of the time display (8) (which shows 00) will come on, and it will flash on and off along together with the pilot light (9) of the corresponding hotplate.
4 Touch the clock sensor (7) again to increase the value of the time you wish to set, or (4) to decrease it (from 1 to 99 minutes). You can keep your finger on the or sensors (7/4) to make the minutes pass by automatically and make your selection more quickly.
The clock will begin to control the time automatically. The control display (8)
