The Working of the Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The

Heating Zones zones heat up and cool down quicker, providing greater controllability for sensitive foods. Each heating zone is equipped with a thermal limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the ceramic glass from overheating. After several minutes at full power without a pan on the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the heating elements off and on automatically to avoid any damage to the ceramic glass.
