Warning! Risk of burns from residual heat. After being switched off, the
cooking zones need some time to
cool down. Look at the residual heat
indicator
h .
Residual heat can be used for melting and keeping food warm.
The induction cooking zones create
the heat required for cooking directly in
the base of the cookware. The glass ceramic is merely heated by the residual
heat of the cookware.
The cooling fan switches itself on and
off depending upon the temperature of
the electronics.

Switching the power function on and off
operating the appliance electrolux 13
The power function makes more
power available to the induction cooking
zones, e.g. to bring a large quantity of
water to the boil quickly.
The power function is activated for
10 minutes. After that the induction
cooking zone automatically switches
back to heat setting 9.

If the power function has ended, the
cooking zones automatically switch
back to the heat setting set previously.
Power Management
The cooking zones of the cooking surface have a maximum power available
to them.
So that the Power function can always
be carried out, Power Management may
reduce the power of the other cooking
zone.
Example: heat setting 9 is selected on a
cooking zone. The Power function is
switched on for the other cooking zone.
The Power function is performed, but
heat setting 9 on one cooking zone and
Power function on the other cooking
zone exceeds the maximum output for
both. Therefore Power Management reduces the first cooking zone that was
switched on from 9 to 7, for example,
and the display for this cooking zone alternates between 9 and 7 and then remains on the current maximum of 7.
(Whether the display alternates between
9 and 7 or 9 and 6 or other values, depends on the appliance type and the
size of the cooking zone.)
