–The burner power levels and the timer settings cannot be changed.

–The burners, the cooktop and the timer can be turned off, but once off they cannot be turned on again.

The system lock can be activated when the cooktop is turned off. When the system lock is activated, the cooktop cannot be turned on and the timer cannot be used.

The appliance is programmed so that the system lock must be activated manually.

The system lock can be programmed to be activated automatically 5 minutes after the cooktop has been turned off, providing the safety lock is not manually activated first (see "Programming").
