The Working of the Heating Zones.
Heating only occurs within the
marked circular cooking zones.
The zones heat up and cool down
quickly providing greater
controllability for sensitive foods.
Each heating zone is equipped with
a thermal limiter which is a safety
cut-out which prevents the ceramic
glass from overheating. After
several minutes at full power
without a pan on the heating zone
the thermal limiter will switch the
heating elements off and on
automatically to avoid any damage
to the ceramic glass.
