2.4.1 Safety instructions – cooktop extractor operation

DANGER

Risk of smoke inhalation

When the cooktop extractor is used in exhaust air mode, it draws in air from the room it is installed in and from neighbouring rooms. Without sufficient air, there will be a drop in air pressure. When used at the same time as a fireplace that is dependent on the air in the room, noxious gases can be sucked into the living areas from the chimney or outlet shaft.

▶ Make sure that there is always a sufficient air supply.
▶ Only use reliable, tried-and-tested switching devices, (e.g. window contact switch, low pressure warning device) and have them approved by a qualified expert (certified chimney sweep).

WARNING

Fire risk from flambéing

While the cooktop extractor is working, it sucks up grease from cooking. Flambéing food can cause the grease to catch fire.

▶ Clean the cooktop extractor regularly.
▶ Never work with a naked flame while the cooktop extractor is running.

CAUTION

Risk of injury from moving cover flap

There is a risk of injury when the electrical cover flap is moving.

▶ Do not put your hands inside the cooktop extractor while the cover flap is moving.

CAUTION

Damage caused by objects or paper suctioned in

Small and light items, such as cleaning cloths made from material or paper, can be suctioned into the cooktop extractor. This can damage the fan or impair the exhaust performance.

▶ Do not store any items or paper on the cooktop extractor.
▶ Only operate the integrated cooktop extractor with the grease filter fitted.

CAUTION

Damage caused by grease and dirt deposits

Grease and dirt deposits can prevent the cooktop extractor from functioning properly.

▶ Never use the cooktop extractor without a correctly fitted stainless steel grease filter.

PLEASE NOTE

Increased humidity

When cooking, additional moisture is released into the ambient air. In recirculation mode, only a slight amount of moisture is removed from the cooking vapour.

When using the recirculation mode, ensure a sufficient supply of fresh air, e.g. by opening a window.
▶ Ensure a normal and comfortable room climate (humidity of 45 – 60%), e.g. by opening natural ventilation openings or using domestic ventilation systems.

3.3 Cooktop extractor appliance description

3.3.1 Installation variations

Depending on the model you purchased, the cooktop extractor can be operated as an exhaust air or a recirculating air version.

Exhaust air

The air suctioned away is purified by the grease filter and expelled into the open air via a duct system.

The exhaust air must not be expelled into:

• a smoke or exhaust gas flue that is in operation
- a shaft used for the aeration of rooms where fireplaces are installed.

If the exhaust air is to be directed into a smoke or exhaust gas flue that is not in use, the installation must be checked and approved by the responsible heating engineer.

If the cooktop extractor is used in an exhaust air system, the extractor power is automatically increased for the first 20 seconds when set on a lower power level (wall sleeve function).

Recirculation

The air suctioned away is purified by the grease filter and an activated charcoal filter and fed back into the room in which the appliance is installed.

To prevent odours in recirculation mode, an odour filter must be used. For health and hygiene reasons, the activated charcoal filter must be replaced at the recommended intervals (see "7 Cleaning and maintenance").

In recirculation mode, ensure sufficient ventilation and aeration to expel humidity.
If the cooktop extractor is used in a recirculating air system, when a power level is set the operating time is automatically deducted from the recirculation filter service life. The remaining filter service life can be seen in the menu.

3.4.3 How the induction cooktops work

An induction coil is located underneath an induction cooking zone. If the cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a magnetic field that acts directly on the base of the pot thus heating it up. The cooking zone is only indirectly heated up by the heat emitted by the pot. Cooking zones with induction only work if the cookware has a magnetisable base.

Induction automatically takes into account the size of the cookware used which means that only the area in the cooking zone covered by the base of the pot is heated up.

▶ Observe the minimum pot base diameter.

Power levels

The high power output of induction cooktops results in the very quick heating up of cookware. In order to avoid burning food, slight adjustment is needed in comparison to conventional cooking systems when selecting the power level.

Activity Power level
Melting butter and chocolate, breaking up gelatine	1
Keeping sauces and soups warm, soaking rice	1-3
Cooking potatoes, pasta, soups and ragouts,steaming fruit, vegetables and fish, defrosting food	2-6
Frying in coated pans, moderate frying (withoutoverheating the fat) of pork cutlets or fish	6-7
Heating up fat, browning meat, cooking thickenedsauces and soups, making omelettes	7-8
Cooking large amounts of liquids, grilling steaksand heating water	9
Heating up water	P

Tab. 3.5 Recommendations for power levels

The specifications provided in the table are standard values. Depending on the cookware and filling quantity, it is recommended to either decrease or increase the power level.

The heating and heat-through times for the cookware base, as well as the cooking results, are significantly influenced by the structure and material of the cookware.

Suitable cookware

Cookware with this symbol is suitable for induction cooktops. The cookware used for the induction cooktop must be made of metal, feature magnetic properties and possess an ample base.

Suitable cookware is made of:

• stainless steel with a magnetisable base
- enamelled steel
- cast iron

Appliance Cooking zone Minimum cookware
	base diameter
PKI3 Front 120 mm
	Back 90 mm
PKFI3 Front 120 mm
	Back 120 mm
PKIW3 Wok 210 mm

Tab. 3.6 Minimum cookware diameter

▶ Perform a magnet test, if necessary. If a magnet sticks to the base of the utensils, they are normally induction compatible.
Pay attention to the cookware base. The base of the cookware should not show any sign of curvature (exception: wok cooktops). Due to incorrect hob temperature monitoring, this curvature may cause the cookware to overheat. To avoid scratching the cooktop, the base of the cookware must not have any sharp grooves or sharp edges.
▶ Place the cookware (without a mat or similar) directly onto the glass ceramic.
The induction wok (HIW1) is ideal for the Induction wok cooktop and is available as an accessory.

Noises

The following noises may occur in the cookware when using induction cooking zones, depending on the material and the finish of the base:

● Humming may occur when using a high power level. This decreases or disappears when the power level is decreased.
- Crackling or whistling may occur due to cookware bases being made of different materials (e.g. sandwich base).

- Clicking sounds may occur during electronic switching procedures, especially at low power levels.

- Whirring may occur when the cooling fan is switched on. In order to increase the service life of the electronic system, the cooktop is equipped with a cooling fan. The cooling fan switches on automatically if the cooktop is used intensively. You will hear a whirring sound. The cooling fan may continue to run after the appliance has been switched off.

3.4.4 How the Hyper and HiLight cooktops work

Under the cooking zone is a radiant heating element with a heating tape. When the cooking zone is switched on, the heating tape generates radiant heat, which radiates to the cooking zone and heats it up.

Power levels

Activity Power level
Melting butter and chocolate, breaking up gelatine	1
Keeping sauces and soups warm, soaking rice	1-3
Cooking potatoes, pasta, soups and ragouts,steaming fruit, vegetables and fish, defrosting food	2-6
Frying in coated pans, moderate frying (withoutoverheating the fat) of pork cutlets or fish	6-7
Heating up fat, browning meat, cooking thickenedsauses and soups, making omelettes	7-8
Cooking large amounts of liquids, grilling steaksand heating water	9
Heating up water	P

Tab. 3.7 Recommendations for power levels

The specifications provided in the table are standard values. Depending on the cookware and filling quantity, it is recommended to either decrease or increase the power level.

The heating and heat-through times for the cookware base, as well as the cooking results, are significantly influenced by the structure and material of the cookware.

Power setting on the Hyper cooktop

The front cooking zone on the Hyper glass ceramic cooktop is fitted with a temporary power setting.

T is P displayed.

The power setting can be used in order to quickly heat up large quantities of water. If the power setting is activated, the cooking zones will run at extra high power. After 10 minutes, the cooking zone automatically switches back to power level 9.

Suitable cookware

Cookware with this symbol is suitable for radiant heating elements. The cookware used for radiant heating surfaces must be metal and have good heat conducting properties.

Suitable cookware is made of:

T stainless steel, copper or aluminium

T enamelled steel

T cast iron

Pay attention to the cookware base. The bottom of the cookware should not show any sign of curvature. Due to incorrect hob temperature monitoring, this curvature may cause the cookware to overheat. To avoid scratching the cooktop, the base of the cookware must not have any sharp grooves or sharp edges.
▶ Place the cookware (without a mat or similar) directly onto the glass ceramic.

3.4.5 How the Tepan stainless steel grill works

Under each grilling zone there is a heating element. When a grilling zone is switched on, the heating element generates heat that directly heats the grill surface.

Power levels and temperature ranges

The power is adjusted via temperature ranges that are shown in the operating panel display in ^ C (temperature indicator).

Temperature in °C Meaning
C (= 70°C)	Cleaning temperature
80 - 230	Power levels (in 10°C increments)
240 - 250	Power setting

Tab. 3.8 The temperatures corresponding to the power levels

The power output of the Tepan stainless steel grill heats food extremely quickly. A slight adjustment is needed in comparison to conventional cooking systems when selecting the temperature in order to avoid burning food.

Activity Temperature in °C
Steaming fruit, e.g. apple slices, peach halves, banana slices	160 - 170
Browning chopped vegetables, fried eggs, veal, poultry	180 - 190
Browning breaded or battered fish, pancakes, sausages, pork, lamb	190 - 200
Browning potato fritters, prawns, corn on the cob and escalopes	200 - 210
Fast browning beef, fish, meatballs	220 - 230
Browning steaks	250 (Power setting)

Tab. 3.9 Temperature recommendations (the specifications provided in the table are standard values)

3.4.6 How the gas cooktop works

If a cooking zone is switched on, the flame generates heat, which directly heats the base of the cookware. The gas flame is controlled by a highly accurate electronic gas control system (e-gas system). Among other things, servomotors are used to accurately control each gas burner. These servomotors calibrate themselves from time to time and typical humming noises can be heard that are totally normal and do not constitute a malfunction. The advantage of this electronic gas control system is the optimum, repeatable heat regulation, which means that the selected power levels are identical in every cooking session. In addition, a clean, constantly increasing flame is formed at every power level. Furthermore, if necessary, it can be automatically reignited.

The cooktop has automatic ignition.

Power levels

The power is adjusted using power levels 1 - 9 and P. The output of gas cooktops means that food is heated quickly. In order to avoid burning food, slight adjustment is needed in comparison to conventional cooking systems when selecting the power level.

Activity Power level
Keeping cooked meals warm	1-2
Browning chopped vegetables, fried eggs, veal, poultry	3-5
Grilling prawns, corn on the cob, schnitzel, beef, fish or burgers	5-7
Bringing large amounts of liquid to the boil, searing steaks	8-9
Heating up water	P

Tab. 3.10 Recommendations for power levels

The specifications provided in the table are standard values.

Each gas cooking zone is equipped with a safety thermocouple. This element detects if the flame has gone out (e.g. if a pan has boiled over or there is a strong draught). The gas supply is then turned off and the burner is automatically reignited. If reignition is not possible, the gas supply is stopped. A gas leak is therefore prevented.

Suitable cookware

Cookware with this symbol is suitable for gas cooktops.

Suitable cookware is made of:

• copper
- stainless steel
- aluminium
- cast iron

Adhere to the dimensions in the table:

Burner Minimum pan diameters	Recommended pan diameter
Normal burner 120 mm 140–200 mm
High-power burner 160 mm 180–240 mm

Tab. 3.11 Pan diameters

The heating and heat-through times for the cookware base, as well as the cooking results, are significantly influenced by the structure and material of the cookware. Cookware with a thick base ensures more even heat distribution. In the case of a thin base there is a risk of the food becoming overheated in places. The cooktop may also become damaged.
Take special care not to overheat the cookware as the base can become deformed. For this reason, you should never heat up cookware when empty.
Cookware with an uneven base may tip over. A slight wobble can never be completely ruled out.
Only use cookware with a diameter that is within the given dimensions. If the diameter is too large, the hot gases flowing outwards from under the base may damage the worktop or any non-heat-resistant wall, e.g. with panelling, as well as part of the cooktop and the cooktop extractor. Bora shall not be held liable for any such damage.

3.5 Safety features

3.5.1 Anti-trap protection

The electrical cover flap on the cooktop extractor has anti-trap protection. If the cover flap is obstructed when opening or closing, it automatically stops moving. The cover flap returns to the starting position and tries again. If the anti-trap protection triggers again, the error message appears on the control knob (see "8 Troubleshooting").

3.5.2 Safety shut-down

If an appliance is switched on but is not used for a predefined time, it is automatically switched off.

Cooktop extractor

The cooktop extractor is automatically switched off after an operating time of 120 minutes without any change to the power level.

Cooktops

Each cooking zone is switched off automatically when the cooking zone exceeds the maximum operating duration on one power level or heat retention level. is also displayed (residual heat indicator).

• cookware is heated up empty;
- oil or fat is heated on high power;
- a hot cooking zone is switched on again after a power cut.
Whilst the overheating protection is active, one of the following steps is taken:
- the activated power setting is switched back to the previous level;
- the power setting can no longer be switched on;
• the set power level is reduced;
● the cooktop switches off completely.
After a sufficient cooling period, the cooktop can be used again in full.

5.3 Operating the cooktop extractor

5.3.1 General operating instructions for the cooktop extractor

Both cooktop extractor functions and system functions can be operated using the cooktop extractor control knob.

The cooktop extractor must only be operated with BORA cooktops.

The cooktop extractor must only be operated when the grease filter components are installed.

Recommendations for efficient vapour extraction

In the case of tall cooking pots, place the lid on at an angle so that the cooking vapours are guided towards the cooktop extractor.
▶ Only operate the cooktop extractor at the minimum power level required for effective vapour extraction. This enables you to improve the performance of the odour filters in recirculation mode.
▶ Only operate the hob at the minimum power level required for cooking. This reduces the cooking vapours and the power consumption.
▶ Avoid strong drafts.

Restricted functions when using the cooktops without a cooktop extractor

If cooktops are installed and operated without a cooktop extractor, only limited functions will be available. The following functions will not be available:

• System functions
• Pause function

5.4.5 Filter service life and filter service display

The maximum service life of the recirculation filter is defined by the filter type configured in the system (filter service life). Depending on the type of filter fitted, the filter service display will be activated after 300 or 600 operating hours. If an 'F' (filter service display) appears on the control knob display after switching on the cooktop extractor, the recirculation filter's service life has come to an end and the filter needs to be replaced (filter change).

• The filter service display is shown every time the cooktop extractor is switched on and remains active until the filter has been changed and the filter service display has been reset.
• The cooktop extractor can still be operated without limitations.
• To use the cooktop extractor, the filter service display can be deactivated once with a tap or permanently reset.

If the service life of the activated charcoal filter is exceeded, the correct functioning of the system may be affected. It is still possible to use the cooktop extractor, however, the warranty and guarantee claims shall then be invalid. The components of the grease filter require regular cleaning regardless of the filter service display.

5.5 Operating the cooktops

The full range of functions is only available for Professional 3.0 system cooktops in combination with the cooktop extractors.
Clean the cooking zone before using the cooktop for the first time (see "7 Cleaning and maintenance").

5.5.1 General operating instructions for cooktops

Cooktops are operated with 2 control knobs. There are 9 power levels, an optional power setting and various functions available for each cooking zone. Each cooking zone has its own control knob; the front cooking zone is operated using the left-hand knob and the rear cooking zone using the right-hand knob.

Fig. 5.24 Cooking zone indicator

[1] active front cooking zone
[2] active rear cooking zone

Restricted functions when using the cooktops without a cooktop extractor

If cooktops are installed and operated without a cooktop extractor, only limited functions will be available. The following functions will not be available:

- System functions

• Pause function
• Short-time timer
• Child lock

- All settings/functions in the configuration menu

5.5.2 Special operating instructions for the Tepan stainless steel grill

Initial operation:

▶ Heat the griddle to 220^ C for approx. 25 minutes before using it for the first time (= power level 8 for both grilling zones).
- Bothersome odours may be emitted during this process.

Operating instructions:

▶ Clean the grill surface before using the appliance for the first time (see "7 Cleaning and maintenance").
▶ Preheat the grilling zone for 5 minutes before it is used each time.
- During heating or cooling the griddle may make some noise. This is a normal occurrence.
- A fan is built in to the Tepan stainless steel grill for cooling, guaranteeing a long service life for the electronic components and rapid cooling of the grill surface. Different measures have been taken to keep noise to a minimum, but it cannot be completely avoided.
- During use, the griddle may show signs of curvature.
- During grilling or heating on a high power level, the griddle may adopt a light brown colour.

5.5.3 Special operating instructions for the gas cooktop

When operating the cooktop for the first time or after a prolonged period without use or when the liquid gas bottles have been changed, it is possible that the burner may not ignite. This may be due to air in the gas pipe or the electronic gas regulator may need recalibrating. Follow the initial operation instructions (see "Installation instructions").
In the case of the gas cooktop, due to the use of enamelled cast iron parts, slight colour variations and irregularities are common. Furthermore, flash rust may appear at the support points, which can be easily removed with a damp cloth. These spots are normal and are not considered an impairment.
As a result of use, some of the components of the gas cooktop can become discoloured. This discolouration is normal and does not have a negative effect on the gas flame or the functioning of the cooktop.

When using the gas burner, you may hear gas escaping from it. The burner flame turns orange as a result of prolonged operation and/or impurities on the burner and in the ambient air (dust). These properties are normal and can occur independently of one another.
In the event of smoke or fire while operating the gas cooktop, turn off the gas supply and switch off the appliance at the wall socket.
If you smell gas or have problems with the gas installation, switch off the gas supply. Open the window and ensure good ventilation.

Operating instructions:

The use of a gas cooktop results in the formation of heat and moisture in the area where it is installed. Intensive use of the appliance for a long time may require additional ventilation, e.g. opening a window or more effective ventilation, e.g. operation of the mechanical ventilation device at a higher power level.

▶ Ensure sufficient ventilation.
▶ Keep natural ventilation openings open.
▶ Use a mechanical ventilation device if possible.
▶ Do not put cookware with an uneven base on the pan support.
▶ Never heat empty cookware.
▶ Always place the cookware on the pan support provided. Cookware must not be placed directly on the burner.
▶ Do not use roasters, pans or stone grills that are so large that they cover several burners. The resulting heat accumulation can damage the cooktop.
▶ Ensure that the burner parts and pan supports are positioned correctly.
▶ Do not switch the gas cooktop on until all burner parts are correctly assembled.
▶ Ensure that the burner flame does not protrude from under the base of the cookware and rise up the outside of the pot.
▶ Do not keep any highly flammable objects near the cooktop.

Only use cookware with a diameter that is within the given dimensions. If the diameter is too large, the hot gases and flames flowing outwards from under the base may damage the worktop or any non-heat-resistant surfaces, e.g. walls with panelling, as well as parts of the cooktop and the cooktop extractor. Bora shall not be held liable for any such damage.
Do not use the gas cooktop without cookware for extended periods of time (>5 min) with the cooktop extractor switched on. This results in very high temperatures and may damage the gas cooktop and air-channelling components of the cooktop extractor.
The tips of the flames should remain under the base of the pot. Protruding flame tips emit heat into the air unnecessarily and can damage pan handles and air-channelling components (cooktop extractor) and increase the risk of burns. Furthermore, the outer part of the gas flame is much hotter than the core.

Protect your hands when the appliance is hot by using oven gloves or pot holders. Only use dry gloves or pot holders. Wet or damp fabrics conduct heat more easily and can cause steam burns. Ensure that these fabrics do not get too close to the flames. Do not use oversized pot holders, tea towels or similar.
i Grease splashes and other flammable (food) residues on the cooktop can catch fire. Remove them as soon as possible.

For maximum performance with minimum gas consumption, we recommend that you:

▶ use cookware with a base that covers the flame entirely so that this does not burn beyond the base;
▶ use suitable pans on each gas burner;
▶ position the cookware centrally on the gas hob;
▶ set the gas burner to the lowest power level (small flame) once the pan contents are simmering;
▶ adjust the power level of the cooktop extractor to the power level of the gas cooktop.

Using the gas cooktop with a cooktop extractor:

If the gas cooktop is used together with a cooktop extractor, the airflow of the extractor can affect the gas flame.

▶ Avoid using a high power level on the cooktop extractor when the gas cooktop is set to a low power level.
▶ If necessary, reduce the power level on the cooktop extractor when you turn on the gas cooktop.
▶ Do not use the gas cooktop without cookware. The gas flame is protected from the airflow of the cooktop extractor by the geometry of the pan supports and the cookware.
▶ If necessary, reduce the power level on the cooktop extractor to improve heat input or distribution.

Flames can set fire to or damage the grease filter in the cooktop extractor and the air-channelling components. Never flambé food when using a cooktop extractor.
The performance characteristics of the gas cooktop (e.g. heating times, efficiency, etc.) are affected by the cooktop extractor. The cooktop extractor also affects the heat input and distribution.
In recirculation mode the recirculated air affects the gas cooktop. If the gas flame goes out, is excessively affected by the extractor and/or the flame is not as it should be (e.g. soot production, flame blowback, etc.), the return flow aperture must be enlarged.

5.5.4 Setting cooking zone power levels

The power levels are controlled by turning the knob ring to the desired power level (electronic power adjustment).

Increasing the power level

▶ Turning the knob ring clockwise

Reducing the power level

▶ Turning the knob ring anticlockwise
- The selected power level is shown in the display on the extractor control knob.

Setting the temperature on the Tepan stainless steel grill

▶ Turn the knob ring to the desired temperature.

• The control knob display shows the target temperature for 3 seconds. Then the warm-up phase begins.
• During the warm-up phase, the corresponding cooking zone display flashes and the current temperature is shown.
• As soon as the target temperature is reached, the warm-up phase comes to an end and the target temperature is continuously displayed.

5.5.5 Cooktop power setting

When the power setting is activated, maximum cooking zone power is available for a predefined time. The available power is targeted at the cooking zone, meaning that the max. power of the second cooking zone is automatically reduced temporarily.

Activating the power setting for a cooking zone

▶ Turn the knob ring clockwise to power setting P.
- After 10 minutes, the power setting is automatically switched back to power level 9 (20 minutes on the gas cooktop).
- The power setting cannot be activated if the bridging function is switched on
- If one cooking zone is operated on the power setting, the second cooking zone can be operated at a maximum power level of 5.
- On the cooktop PKCH3 the power setting corresponds to the Hyper setting.

Never heat up oil, fat and the like on the power setting. The bottom of the pan can overheat due to the high power output.

Activating the power setting on the Tepan stainless steel grill

▶ Turn the knob ring clockwise to temperature 240/250°C (= power setting).
- After 10 minutes, the power setting is automatically switched back to power level 9 (230°C).
- On the Tepan stainless steel grill, both cooking zones can be operated on the power setting at the same time, even with the bridging function.

Deactivating the power setting

the power setting is deactivated early if another power level is set.

5.5.6 Bridging function

With the bridging function two cooking zones can be combined to form one large cooking zone. The power for the combined zones is then adjusted by a single operating control. Power adjustment takes place simultaneously (both cooking zones are operated on the same power level). The bridging function is suitable for heating food, e.g. in a roaster.

If both cooking zones are already in use when the bridging function is activated, the lower of the two power levels will be adopted for both cooking zones.

If a timer is running when the bridging function is activated, this is adopted. If 2 timers are running, the shorter one is used for the bridging function.

Activating the bridging function

▶ Touch command on both control knobs at the same time.
- An acoustic signal can be heard and the bridging function is activated.
- The power level and both cooking zone indicators are shown on both control knobs.

or
▶ Touch command on both control knobs at the same time.
- An acoustic signal can be heard and the bridging function is deactivated.
- The current power levels are retained.
• Each cooking zone then goes back to being operated separately.

5.5.7 Pause function

With the pause function all cooking zones can be quickly and easily deactivated temporarily. When the function is cancelled, operation resumes at the original settings. The cooking session can be paused for a maximum of 10 minutes. Once 10 minutes have lapsed, the cooking session is automatically ended.

During the pause, fan function is not interrupted. Active bridging and short-time timer functions remain active. Active cooking zone timers are stopped.

Activating the pause function

▶ Double tap the cooktop extractor control knob
- appears in the cooktop extractor control knob display | fading in and out.

- The cooktop control knob displays light up again.
- Paused cooking zone timers resume their countdown.

Fig. 5.28 Deactivating the pause function

5.5.8 Pan size recognition

On induction cooktops the cooking zone recognises the size of the cookware automatically and only targets the energy at that area. It also recognises cookware that is unsuitable or too small, or if there is no cookware present. A cooking zone is not working if U are alternated in the display. This happens if

- it is switched on without cookware or with unsuitable cookware;

- the base diameter of the cookware is too small;

- the cookware is removed from a switched-on cooking zone. If no pot is recognised 10 minutes after setting a power level, the cooking zone will switch off automatically.

Tab. 6.15 Setting the gas type and gas pressure

6.5.2 Menu item CF: Gas burner characteristic curves

You can select the characteristic curves for the gas burners here. The characteristic curves regulate the minimum gas burner power values. The minimum power levels are adjusted using the characteristic curves. Depending on the installation situation and the influence of the cooktop extractor, if necessary, the characteristic curve can be changed.

Characteristic curve A:

A enables the fine tuning of the power values, which can only be adjusted in the best-case scenario and only in the case of natural gas (G20, G25, G25.3). The best-case scenario is when:

• no cooktop extractor is in operation; or
• the cooktop, when using the cooktop extractor in exhaust air mode, is used with sufficient ventilation; or
• the cooktop, when using the cooktop extractor in recirculation mode is used with a sufficient return flow aperture and the cooktop extractor does not have a negative influence on the gas flame.

Characteristic curve B:

B is the factory default characteristic curve with balanced adjustment of the individual power levels.

Characteristic curve C:

C increases the lower power levels and should only be used in the event of a negative influence from the cooktop extractor.

▶ Select the appropriate characteristic curve.

Setting Gas burner characteristic curves
0	Characteristic curve A
1	Characteristic curve B (factory setting)
2	Characteristic curve C

Tab. 6.16 Characteristic curves for the gas burner
If the gas flame goes out, is excessively affected by the extractor and/or the flame is not as it should be (e.g. soot production, flame blowback, etc.), the characteristic curve must be increased, as well as the ventilation in exhaust air mode, if necessary, or the return flow aperture in recirculation mode.

6.5.3 Menu item Ch: GPU reset

This menu item provides a reset function. This reset function can be used in the case of faults and errors and during initial operation if the gas cooktop does not react (does not ignite). The set values for the gas type, pressure and characteristic curve remain unchanged and are not affected by the reset.
