the object and/or cleaned the cooktop

Excessive operating time
The safety switch-off mechanism is
triggered automatically if an area is
heated for an unusually long period of
time. This time depends on the power
level selected. If it has been exceeded,
the heat switches off and the residual
heat indicator will appear. A power level
can be selected in the usual way.
The cooktop is programmed to safety
setting 0 at the factory. If required, you
can set a higher safety setting with a
shorter maximum operating time (see
chart).
