My spanish balay touch hob will not come off child lock

Child Lock:

simultaneously operate the right and the left of the slider button and then operate the right of the

be changed. (If a cooking zone is in the hot condition, "L" and "H" will be displayed in alternation.)
The hob will remain in a locked condition until it gets unlocked, even if the control has been
switched off and on.
To deactivate the child lock, first switch on the hob. Simultaneously operate the right and the left of
the slider button and then operate left of slider button again. "L" will disappear in the display and
the hob will be switched off.

Hi,

You've probably accidentally activated the child-lock "L". It would help to know which model you have as the deactivation method can vary on different models. However, this is the process for activation or deactivation on the EKI-848 which looks like the one in the above picture:

Switching off the childproof lock

1. Press the ON key.

2. Then immediately press the Plus key of the cooking zone at the left-back and the Minus key of the cooking zone at the right-back simultaneously.

3. Then press the Minus key in order to deactivate the childproof lock. The "L" will go off.

If this doesn't work or you have a different model, please post back and I will let you know the correct deactivation method for your model.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

BElectric

safety lock is on. How can I release safety lock?

Try - set all hotplates to setting 2. Switch off jot plates one after another starting with front right in clockwise direction, touch main switch for at least 5 seconds & a signal will sound - this activates & de-activates the child lock - or so the instructions say...

To use the hob with the child lock on - it says to press the main switch for more than 4 seconds & that lets you use it.

hi gud day,all hob is almost the same to use,if touch control ur unit,put ur tumb wer the place sign of child lock & off sign..tnx

If the KEY lock is on (key botton flashes when switched on) ... touch AND HOLD the lock symbol for AT LEAST TWO seconds until it beeps, then hold the on/off button for AT LEAST 2 SECS.

If the CHILD lock is on ([L] on all displays when switched on), then:
1)Hold the on switch for TWO secs min (unit swtiches on) ...then
2) touch AND HOLD the + AND - for AT LEAST 2 secs
3) touch the - button once again.

It is child lock.

Turn cooker on, press two + at front of oven, this will then take it off for that cooking session.

To turn child lock off switch on hob, and touch - for 5 seconds.

gud day,not all models of ceramic hob have a child lock,check it 1st ur unit if have it,if we have,touch the circle w/sign of key to lock the ceramic for ur child,to unlock touch again.u see the ligth red is on it means the lock is in ON.easy to unlock even ur child by touching the key sign,for ur safety to not use ur unit,unplug the unit if it not use.

Got the same problem, and remembered I've kept the manual book
L means locked. I dont know how Ive managed to do this as well

Anyway it says:

Cancelling the key lock
After switching ON the control the child safety feature can be deactivated. Here it is necessary to simultaneously operate the front right cooking-zone-select-key and the MINUS-key and then operate the MINUS-key alone. If all steps hae been carried out in the right order within 10seconds the key lock gets cancelled and the control is OFF. Otherwise the input will be considered incomplete, the control remains locked and switches-OFF after 20 seconds.

After a renewed switching-ON/OFF key all displays show 0", the display dots are blinking and the control is ready for ooking. If a cooking zone is "hot", "H" will be displayed instead of the static 0".


Followed their instructions & still not worked. ,I am still confused and baffled after these instructions........................
