MAXIMUM USABLE POWER FOR THE COOKING ZONES
The left and right cooking zones are controlled by two separate power boards.
Where a power board manages two zones (front/rear LH zones; front/rear RH zones in model with four zones) the maximum total po- wer per each power board is 3700 W.
Should the cooking zones of one power board require more than 3700 W, the last selected po- wer level has priority and the power of the other cooking zone is automatically reduced to the remaining power available.
If this occurs, the cooking zone will display a flashing figure for about 3 seconds before auto- matically displaying the new power level.
This means for example that:

■■ When setting a “Booster” programme for the second zone, the setting for the other zone could be reduced to the remaining power available.
■■ When setting a “Booster” programme for a zone and then another setting on the se- cond zone, if the total power exceed 3700 W the “Booster” programme is deleted and the power reduced to the maximum power available.
THERMAL PROTECTIONS
The induction hob is fitted with safety devices to protect the electronic system and to pro- tect each cooking zone from overheating.
In case of overheating, one of the following automatic functions could be started by the electronic system:
■■ “Booster” program deleted and power reduced.
■■ One or more cooking zone switched Off.
■■ Cooling fan motor of the induction unit switched On.
