•The following letters and functions are displayed for the cooking zones:

1h = Residual Heat Display

1 Cooking Zone Safety

Cut-out

If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after a certain time or if the heat setting is not changed, the corresponding cooking zone switches itself off auto- matically.

h appears in the ring display for all rings that were switched on, and _ after they have cooled down. The rings are switched off at:

• Heat setting

1 - 2

after 6 hours

• Heat setting

3 - 4

after 5 hours

• Heat setting

5

after 4 hours

• Heat setting

6 - 9

after 1.5 hours

3If one or more cooking zones switch off before the times indicated see section “What to do if …”.

Cancelling the Safety Cut-out

To cancel the activated safety cut-out the appliance must be switched off and then on again using the ON/OFF sensor field. After this the cooking zones are again ready for use.

Switching Off for Other Reasons

Liquids that boil over onto the control panel cause all cooking zones to switch off immediately.

If you place a wet cloth on the control panel it has the same effect. In both cases the appliance has to be switched on again using the mains switch after removing the liquid or cloth.
