Operating Instructions

1 Safety

The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, as manufacturers we also believe it is our responsibility to familiarise you with the following safety instructions.

Electrical Safety

•The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be carried out by qualified personnel.

•Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved service engineers. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your local customer center or your dealer.

3 Please follow these instructions, otherwise the warranty will not cover any damage that may occur.

•Flush-mounted appliances may only be operated following installation in suitable installation cabinets and workplaces which conform to the relevant standards. This ensures sufficient protection against contact for electrical units as required by the VDE [Association of German Electrical Engineers].

•If your appliance malfunctions or if fractures, cracks or splits appear:

–switch off all cooking zones,

–disconnect the hob from the electricity supply.

Child Safety

The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always keep small children away from the appliance.

Safety During Use

•This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.

•Do not use the hob to heat the room.

•Take care when plugging electric appliances into mains sockets near the hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot surface.

•Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).

•Switch off the cooking zones after use.

Safety When Cleaning

•For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high pressure cleaner.

•Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual.

How to avoid damage to the appliance

•Do not use the cooking area as a worktop or storage space.

•The frameless edge of the glass ceramic surface is susceptible to knocks. Please be careful when moving pots and pans around.

•Do not have the cook zones on with empty pans, or with no pots or pans on them.

•Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature changes, but is not unbreakable. It can be damaged if particularly hard or sharp objects fall on to it.

•Do not use pots made of cast iron, or which have damaged bases with rough edges or burrs. Moving these around may cause scratches.

•If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot cooking zone and melts, remove immediately, while still hot, using a kitchen scraper. If left to cool down, it may damage the surface when removed.

•Keep objects or materials liable to melt away from the ceramic glass surface, for example, artificial materials, aluminium foil, or cooking wraps. If any other materials or foodstuffs are melting on the ceramic glass surface, these should also be cleaned away immediately, using a kitchen scraper.

2 Disposal

Disposing of the packaging material

All materials used can be fully recycled.

Plastics are marked as follows:

•>PE< for polyethylene, as used for the outer wrapping and the bags inside.

•>PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g., as used for the padding materials. They are completely free of CFCs.

Disposal of old appliances

1 Warning: Before disposing of old appliances please make them inoperable so that they cannot be the source of danger.

To do this, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply and remove the mains lead.

To protect the environment, it is important that worn out appliances are disposed of in the correct manner.

•The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.

•You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse disposal sites from your local refuse department or council.

The Key Features of Your Appliance

•Glass ceramic cooking surface: The appliance has a glass ceramic cooking surface and 5 rapid response cooking zones. The particularly powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the amount of time taken for the zones to heat up.

•Sensor fields: Your appliance is operated using Touch Control sensor fields.

•Cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and the sensor fields is their accessibility for cleaning. The smooth, flat surface is easy to clean.

•On/Off sensor field: The “On/Off” sensor field provides the appliance with a separate mains switch. Touching this switches the power supply on or off completely.

•Control and function indicators: Digital indicators or control lamp provide information about settings made, functions activated, as well as any residual heat of the corresponding cooking zone.

•Safety cut-out: A safety cut-out ensures that all cooking zones switch off automatically after a period of time if the setting has not been changed.

•Keep warm setting: 1 is the setting for keeping foods warm.

•Residual heat indicator: An h for residual heat is shown in the display if the cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burning.

•Frying zone: The hob has a special frying zone. This can be set to either the round or the oval shape, for example when using a fryer.

•Triple ring cooking zone: The hob features a triple-ring cooking zone. This zone can be set to different sizes, for example to fit smaller pots. This will save power.

•Timer: All zones can be automatically switched off using the integrated timer. When the end of the cooking time has been reached, the cooking zone switches off.

•Power Management: When the front left, rear right and front right cooking zones are used simultaneously the hob control automatically brings about the optimal distribution of heating power (see section “Power Management”).

Digital Displays

The four display fields that are assigned to the four cooking zones display:

– _, after being switched on and when the safety function causes an automatic cut-out,

– 0 when a cooking zone is selected,

– 1 to 9, depending on the selected heat setting,

– a during automatic warm up,

– h when there is residual heat,

– f when there is a fault.

1 Cooking Zone Safety Cut-out

If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after a certain time or if the heat setting is not changed, the corresponding cooking zone switches itself off automatically.

h appears in the ring display for all rings that are switched on, and _ after they have cooled down.

The rings are switched off at:
• Heat setting	1 - 2	after 6 hours
• Heat setting	3 - 4	after 5 hours
• Heat setting	5	after 4 hours
• Heat setting	6 - 9	after 1.5 hours

3 If one or more cooking zones switch off before the times indicated see section “What to do if …”.

Cancelling the Safety Cut-out

To cancel the activated safety cut-out the appliance must be switched off and then on again using the ON/OFF I sensor field. After this the cooking zones are again ready for use.

Switching Off for Other Reasons

Liquid that boils over onto the control panel causes all cooking zones to switch off immediately.

If you place a wet cloth on the control panel it has the same effect. In both cases the appliance has to be switched on again using the mains switch I after removing the liquid or cloth.

Before Using for the First Time

Initial Cleaning

Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth.

1 Important: Do not use any caustic, abrasive cleaners! The surface could be damaged.

Operating the Hob

3 When a cooking zone is switched on, it may hum briefly. This is a characteristic of all ceramic glass cooking zones and does not impair either the function or the life of the appliance.

Touch Control Sensor Field

To operate the Touch Control sensor field place your finger from above flat onto the required field until the appropriate displays come on or go out or the required function is carried out.

Switching On the Appliance

The entire appliance is switched on using the “On/Off” I sensor field. Touch the “On/Off” sensor field for approx. 2 seconds.

The digital displays will show _ and the decimal point will flash.

3 Once the “On/Off” sensor field has been operated to switch on the appliance, one of the cooking zones must be selected within approx.

10 seconds using the cooking zone selection buttons. Otherwise the appliance switches off again for safety reasons.

Switching Off the Appliance

To switch off the appliance completely activate the “On/Off” I sensor field.

Touch the “On/Off” sensor field for approx. 1 second.

3 When an individual cooking zone or the entire hob is switched off, any residual heat is shown with an h (for “Hot”) in the digital display for the appropriate cooking zones.

Cooking Zone Selection

To select the required cooking zone touch the corresponding sensor field for approx. one second.

A zero with a decimal point will light up in the appropriate cooking zone display window 0.

3 The decimal point indicates that settings may only be made for this cooking zone.
