Prolonged use of the hob could cause the electronic components to overheat. A thermal protection device momentarily sets a reduced power (level 3) on the right hand cooking zones. The temperature indicators blink to show you that this safety measure has been taken. When the temperature returns to normal, the temperature indicators stop blinking and the cooking zones can once again be used at higher power levels if required.

Should the temperature of the electronic components continue to rise, the cooking zones are locked until the temperature drops - as indicated by the blinking of the 3 points on each of the four temperature indicators.
