after turning the control off, 

the cooktop will remain hot 

for some time.
The cooktop control 

monitors the temperature 

of the cooktop surface 

and displays a message 

“

flashes the burner rings

when the cooktop is still too hot to touch -fig. 1-.

HE message remains displayed in the LCD,

the heating zone may be set again and used for
