Important Safety Information
The safety of this appliance corresponds to the
acknowledged rules of technique and to the law on
appliance safety. The safety measures existing as a
matter of self-understanding would, however, notcover
all of possible risks of accidents.
Moreover, we feel compelled as the manufacturer to
make you familiar with the following hints on safety.
Electrical safety
DThis appliance must be installed by qualified
personnel.
DRepairs to the appliance should only be carreid
out by authorised service enginneers. Improper
repairs can lead to injury or serious malfunction.
If your appliance need repairing please contact
your local Service Force Centre.
Please observe this instruction, otherwise the
guarantee will not cover any damage that may
occur.
DBuilt--in appliances must be installed in built--in
cupboards and worktops. The cupboards have to
be located andfastened in away that they are stable. The protection against accidental contact required by the VDE will then be ensured.
DDamaged appliances must not be installed.
DDo not use the cooking zones to heat the room.
DTake care when plugging electrical items into
mains sockets near the hob. Connecting leads
must not come into connection with the hot
surface or vessels.
DHot oils can ignite very quickly. Do not leave the
hob unattended when preparing foods in pans of
oil, i.e. frying chips.
DThe sensor technique provides best--possible sa-
fety with the manipulation of the appliance, but to
the same extent it needs care when setting cooking zones, output or periods of time.
DAfter use make sure that the appliance is
switched off.
Safety when cleaning
DEnsure that all heating zones are switched off
while cleaning the hob.
DFor safety reasons do not clean the appliance with
a steam jet or high pressure cleaner.
How to avoid damaging your appliance
DDo not use the hob surface as a working surface
or for storage.
DDo not use the hob if the ceramic glass is dama-
ged:
- switch off the cooking zones,
- disconnect from the electricity supply.
DA special electronically controlled safety--switch--
off makes sure that all cooking zones are switched off automatically after a defined time, in case
there will be no variation of settings.
Safety for children
DThis appliance is designed to be operated by
adults only. Do not allow children to play with the
product or tamper with the controls.
DThe appliance gets hot when it is in use. Children
should be kept away until it has cooled.
DChildren can also injure themselves by pulling
pots or pans off the hob.
Safety during use
DThis hob is intended for domestic cooking only. It
is not designed for commercial or industrial
purposes.
DThe appliance gets hot when in use. In case of ca-
reless handling there is danger of burning oneself at the heating zones.
DDo not use the cooking zones with empty pans or
without pans. This could cause damage to the
pans or the hob.
DCeramic glass is insensitive to temperature shock
and very robust, however, it is not unbreakable.
Hard and sharp objects, in particular, can damage
the cooking surface if they fall on it.
DDo not use cast iron pots or pans with damaged
bases that are rough or burred. Scratching may
occur when the lids are slid.
DDo not place any pans on the hob frame. Scrat-
ching may occur or the paint damaged.
DEnsure that liquids containing acids, e.g. vinegar,
lemon limescale removing agents do not come
into contact with the hob frame, otherwise matt
spots will appear.
DIf sugar or adish containing sugar comes intocon-
tact with a hot cooking zone and then melts, remove the soiling immediately whilst still warm,
using a glass scraper. If it cools, damage to the
surface may occur.
DKeep all items and materials that melt away from
the ceramic glass surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil or oven foils. If something of this nature
should melt onto the ceramic glass surface, it
must be removed immediately using a glass scraper.

Before the first use
Cleaning for the first time
The hob has to be cleaned thouroughly before it is first
used.
DWash the ceramic glass surface and the frame
with warm water with a little washing up liquid added and wipe dry.
Never use aggressive or abrasive cleaning
agents, they may damage the ceramic glass and
hob frame.

Operating I nstructions
General information
The cooking surface is made of proven ceramic glass.
and consists of 4 cooking zones. The rapid glowing
cooking zones with that the especially efficient radiant
heating elements will considerably reduce the duration
of heating--up.
The cooking surface is pore--free and also insensitive to rapid changes in temperature. Pots can
therefore be moved from a hot to cold zone.
When switching on a cooking zone you may hear
a short buzz. That is a characteristic of all ceramic
glass cooking zones and does not impair the function or the lifetime of the appliance.
Always put pots and pans onto the cooking zone
before switching on.
Heat Control Knobs
The control knobs regulates the heating capacity of the
cooking zones.
The control knobs for the cooking zone can be turned
to the left and to the right to the desired position.
1 = minimum setting
12 = maximum setting.
Setting it back to „O“ turns off the cooking zone.
Always put pans or pots on the halolight cooking zones,
before switching on.
Residual heat indicator
Each cooking zone is related to one indicator. The warning lamp lights up when the surface of the corresponding cooking zone reaches a temperature which could
cause burns.
This light remains lit after the heated-up area has been
switched off as long as the residual heat of the corresponding cooking surface can cause burnings. The light
will go out when the temperature falls below 60
o
C.

Application, Charts, Tips
Cooking and frying utensils
The better the pot or the pan, the better the boiling
or frying result.
DYou can recognise good quality pans by their
base. The base should be thick and as flat as possible.
DRough bases (i.e. burrs and sharp edges) will
scratch the ceramic glass surface.
DUtensils with aluminium and copper bases can
leave behind metallic discolorations which can
only be removed with difficulty or sometimes not
at all.
DSaucepans and frying pans should not be smaller
than the cooking zone, and preferably not more
than 10--15 mm larger than the diameter of the
cooking zone.
DWhen cold, pan bases normally curve slightly
inwards (are concave). In no case should they
curve outwards (be convex).
DWhen buying new pots or pans pay attention to
the base diameter. Manufacturers often state the
upper diameter of the edge of a dish.
DIf you are using special cooking utensils like pres-
sure cookers or aWOK, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions.
DFollow any guidelines provided by the saucepan
manufacturer. Ensure they are recommended for
use on ceramic hobs.
General hints
DThe bases should always be clean and dry.
DTo avoid scratching or damaging the ceramic
glass surface, pots and pans should be moved on
the hob by lifting them, and not by sliding.
DScratches can also be caused by grains of sand
(e.g. originating from the previous washing of
vegetables), drawn over the cooking surface with
the pan, or by burrs and the rims of pan bases.
DUse high sided pans for dishes with a lot of liquid,
so that nothing boils over.
Energy consumption
To save energy, you should:
Dplace pots and pans in position before switching
on the cooking zone.
Duse only cooking and frying utensils with smooth,
flat bases.
8
Page 9
Dwherever possible, cover pots and pans with a lid.
Dnever place pots or pans on cooking zones with
a higher diameter.
Dbecause of wet or dirty cooking zones and pots
energy will be wasted.
Dswitch off the cooking zone a few minutes before
the end of the cooking time, in order to make use
of the residual heat.
DWhen using pressure cookers you can reduce the
cooking time by up to 50%. As well as saving
energy, more vitamins and minerals are retained
in the food.

Cleaning and care
Attention!Cleaners must not get onto the hotce-
ramic glass surface! After cleaning all residues of
cleaners must be removed with sufficient clean
water, as they may be caustic when being reheated.
Never use aggressive or abrasive agents, such
as oven sprays, stain or rust removers, scouring
powder, or sponges with an abrasive effect.
Suitable cleaning materials are: clean cloth or
household paper, hot water with detergent, suitable commercial cleaners and cleaning scrapers.
Cleaning scrapers and ceramic glass cleaners
are available from the expert trade and in markets
for building material.
Ceramic glass surface
DClean the ceramic glass surface after every use
when it is hand warm or cold. This will avoid spills
becoming burnt on.
DRemove scale and water marks, fat spots and
metallic shimmering discoloration with a commercial ceramic glass cleaner such as Vitroclen.
Light soilage
DWipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth,
and a little washing up liquid.
DThen rub dry with a clean cloth. No residues of
cleaner must be left on the surface.
DOnce a week, throroughly clean the entire cera-
mic glass surface with a commercial ceramic
glass cleaner such as “Vitroclen”. Always ensure
that the hob is dry after cleaning.
Stubborn soilage
DTo remove food that has boiled over or burnt on
spots, use a glass scraper.
DPlace the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic
glass surface. Remove soiling by sliding the scraper.
10
Page 11
Special soilage
Sugar
DRemove burnt--on sugar, melted plastics, alumi-
num foil immedeiately -- when they are still warm
-- using a glass scraper, otherwise damage may
be caused.
Warning! When using the cleaning scraper on the
warm cooking zone care should be taken.
DAfterwards clean the cooking surface normally.
If the cooking zone and melted material has cooled down, reheat the cooking zone gently to aid
the cleaning process.
Dark spots, decor damages
If aggressive cleaners or pans with abrasive bases are used, then the decor will take on an abraded appearence and dark spots will appear over
time.
These marks cannot be removed. However, they
do impair the fuctionability of the hob.
.
Scratches in the ceramic g lass surface
Scratches in the ceramic glass surface resulting
from burrs on a pan base or sand grains cannot
be removed.
However, they do impair the fuction of the hob.
The hob frame
Do not allow vinegar, lemons or scale removers to
come into contact with the hob frame, matt spots
will appear.
DClean the hob frame with water and a little was-
hing up liquid.
DSoften dried dirt with a wet cloth. Then wipe off
and rub dry.
