• Fan noise: a fan is necessary to ensure the hob functions
correctly and to safeguard the electronic unit from possible
GB
overheating. The fan functions at maximum power when
the large induction element is at maximum power or when
the booster function is on; in all other cases, it works at
average power depending on the temperature detected.
Furthermore, the fan may continue to work even after
switching the hob off, if the temperature detected is high.
The types of noise listed above are due to induction
technology and are not necessarily operational faults.

If the (-)or (+)button is pressed for an extended period of
time, the display scrolls quickly though the power levels
and timer minutes.
Initial Light Conditions
When power is initially applied to the Cooktop, the to-
uch control conducts a calibration process for the touch
keys, which requires a low level of ambient light in the
area of the touch keys.
If during this calibration process excessive ambient ligh-
ting is detected the User Interface displays „FL" (Infra-
red Ambient Light Error) and the control calibration pro-
cess is suspended. In order to rectify the process any
lighting that could effect the calibration process should
be switched off (e.g. halogen cooker hood lighting). The
error will disappear when satisfactory ambient lighting
is detected and the touch control calibration procedure
will now complete satisfactorily.
-The „FL" error can only be generated within approx 3s
of initial power being applied to the cooktop.
-We recommend that the user switches off all cooker
hood lighting and lighting directed towards the cooktop
when power is initially applied to the cooktop.
-After the touch control has conducted its initial calibra-
tion process, (approx 3s) any cooker hood or other ligh-
ting can be switched on as normal and will not affect the
operation of the touch control.

The cooktop is switched On when a beep sound is
emitted and the cooking zones display shows the „0"
When the cooktop is off, after 5 sec. without any error/
alarm or residual heat to display, the control switches
off the (KEYLOCK LED)

goes on and we can continue to operate as
usual.
Switching off the cooktop is signalled by 3 beep sound.
Setting the Power Management
The Cooktop maximum power limit (7200W) can be re-
duced by the user to 2800W, 3500W or 6000W (ECO
Power Limits).
The sequence to set a new Cooktop Power Limit is:
·During the first 30 seconds after plugging the applian-
ce
·The Touch has to be unlocked and all Heaters Off
·Press at the same time the left and right end heaters [+]
and [-] keys.
·Once this is done, a beep sounds and "Po" charac-
ters will be in the timer displays and the "actual Cook-
top Power Limit" will be in the left and right end heater
displays.
For selecting a new Power Limit:
·With the (+) and (-) keys, the Power Limit is increased.
The selectable powers are: 2800W, 3500W, 6000W or
7200W. When the power is 7200W, if the [+] or [-] key is
touched the power changes to 2800W.
The sequence to finish recording the new Cooktop Po-
wer Limit is:
·Press at the same time the left and right end heaters [+]
and [-] keys.
·Once this is done, new Cooktop Power Limit is recor-
ded and there is a system reset.
To finish without recording changes:
·If during 60 seconds there is no action, changes are not
recorded and there is a system reset.
Switching on the cooking zones
Each cooking zone is switched on and controlled using the
(-) and (+) POWER buttons, which at the same time
are used for power adjustment.
• To begin operating a cooking zone, set the desired
power level (between 0 and 9) using the (-) and (+)
POWER buttons
Press and hold the (-) POWER button to set the power
level immediately at "9"
Press and hold (+) and (-) POWER buttons simulta
neously to return to power level "0"
If the power level is "0" press and hold the (+) button to
increase the power level quickly.
