Safety switch-off with an over-long cooking time
If one of the cooking zones is heated for an unusually long period of time (see chart) and the power level is not altered, the hob will switch itself off automatically and the relevant residual heat indicator will light up.
To use the cooking zone again, switch it back on in the usual way.

Safety switch-off if the sensors are covered
Your hob will switch off automatically if one or several of the sensors remain covered for more than about 13 seconds, for example by finger contact, food boiling over, or by an object such as an oven glove or a tea towel.
An F will flash in each of the cooking zone displays.
Clean the control panel or remove the obstruction.
F will go out. You can now use the hob again.
