Important to know
Service and repair may only be performed by the distributor, or by a service organization approved by the distributor. Only repair parts delivered by the distributor may be used.
Please read the warranty.
Avoid pinching the cable.
The hob unit is intended for ordinary household cooking purposes. Any other use can result in damage to the unit as well as personal injury.
Use only pots and pans with a rigid, even contact surface - uneven contact surface results not only in poor heat conduction, but also increases the risk of dangerous spills.
During deep-fat frying, sauteeing, melting of butter, etc., one must always remain near the unit, due to the danger of fire. In the event of fire the unit must be shut off immediately (and the cooker hood as well, if in use).
Make sure that the unit is shut off when not in use - the knob should rest at “0”.
The unit becomes dangerously hot during use, and remain so for a period of time. They should therefore be treated with due respect. Keep children at a distance.
For safety's sake, turn pots and pans so that handles do not protrude, thus inviting accidents.
Never place plastic or paper, etc., on the unit. If the unit should be switched on by accident, the paper could burn, plastic melt, etc.
For hygienic and safety reasons the unit must be kept clean. Grease, oil and food spills create unpleasant odours when burnt, and can in some cases result in open flames.
Read - and adhere to - the users instructions, as well as any instructions and warnings printed on the labels of the cleaning agents used.
Help to avoid accidents; if the unit should ever be discarded, render it useless by removing the cable, or by cutting the cable as close to the unit as possible.
Areas if use
The hob is only intended for normal household use. It is important that you follow the advice given in these instructions in order to avoid any risk of damage to persons and objects. Used for any other purpose invalidates the guarantee as well as product liability.

Product liability
Our liability is limited to that which is stipulated by law, and covers only damage to persons and property, which results from defects in materials and workmanship of the unit itself. This liability extends for a period of 10 years from the date of purchase as a factory-new unit.

Check to see whether the unit is damaged.
Distribution damages
Any damages due to transportation by us or by our representative must be reported to the dealer not later than one week after receipt of the unit.
Reservations
Our liability does not apply in the event that the damage in question is due to any of the following conditions: The unit has not been installed in accordance with the instructions set forth in this pamphlet.
That the safety rules in the instructions have not been complied with. That repair has been made by others than an authorised service technician. The unoriginal spare parts have been used. That the damage is caused by transport at a later date, for instance during removal or resale. That the damage is caused by any form of use contrary to common sense.
Positioning
It is advisable to place the unit near an out-of-the-way, or closed, corner, with space on either side on which to rest hot cooking utensils. The unit should not be placed at a heavily-trafficked or open corner, nor in at pasageway.
Installation
Electrical installation must be performed by an authorized electric company. Electrical installation by a novice can result in damage to persons or to the unit. Electrical parts must not be tampered with.

Maintenance and cleaning
Use Proper Cooking Utensils
Make the most of your new ceramic­top hob unit by using proper utensils of a good quality. Only pots and pans which are expressly intended for use on ceramic­top hob units may be used. Utensils must, as a minimum, cover the entire circle which represents a given burner. The underside, or bottom, of the utensil must form a flat, even surface. Ensure that both contact surfaces - the utensil as well as the hob units - are absolutly dry.
Utensils with enamelled bottoms cause excessive wear on the decorative pattern of the ceramic surface. Utensils with painted bottoms must not be used, as the paint can be transferred to the ceramic surface, where it will stick permanently, causing a pocked surface.
Warning!
Utensils with aluminium bottoms can cause light spots on the ceramic surface. These can be removed with the cleaning agent supplied with the unit.
Cleaning of the ceramic surface
The ceramic surface must be cleaned each time that the unit has been in use. Use a clean cloth, which has been dipped in warm, soapy water

Page 9
(use liqud AJAX or other diswashing liquid), and well wrung. All spills must be cleaned up immediately, while the burner is still warm. Use the cleaning agent supplied with the unit.
Remove spots caused by utensils with aluminium bottoms, or burned grease, by polishing with the cleaning agent supplied with the unit. In extreme cases polishing may have to be repeated several times in order to remove the blemish entirely.
After clean-up of any of the burners, the entire ceramic surface should be polished, using the cleaning agent supplied with the unit.
Cleaning of borders and edges
All borders and edges, including the front control panel, should be cleaned in the same manner, and with the same cleaning agent for example, liquid AJAX, as the ceramic surface.
Warning!
Never use scouring powder, scouring sponges, steel wool, or any other cleaning agent, which can scratch the ceramic surface.

Tips on the use of the ceramic
top hob unit
Do not slide saucepans across the surface of the hob - always lift the pan when placing it on, or removing it from the ceramic surface.
Wipe the bottom surface of the pots and pans with a clean dry cloth before placing them on the ceramic surface. This helps to reduce cleaning and prevents scratching the hob glass.
Wipe off spills whilst the hob is warm.
Select the highest setting for the cooking zones until the food is brought to the boil, then reduce the setting.
Use saucepans with an even base. An uneven based saucepan may increase the electricity consumption by up to 50%.
The saucepan should match the cooking zone or be slightly larger.
Use a tightly fitting lid on the saucepan to reduce electricity consumption.

The decorative pattern on the ceramic surface can become scratched and marred with use, depending upon maintenance, but does not adversely affect performance.
Such blemishes are not covered by the warranty.
Spills and melts must be removed immediately, while the burner is still warm, using the scraper supplied with the unit. Especially damaging are melted plastic, aluminium, or any foodstuff containing sugar, including natural sugar, as these can create permanent pockmarks and craters on the ceramic surface. After scraping polish throughly with the cleaning agent supplied with the unit. Utensils which have been in contact with the above-mentioned melted materials must be cleaned throughly before used again on the ceramic-top hob unit.
Defects in the ceramic surface which can be related to the above are not covered by the warranty.
Warning:
Aluminium foil and plastic utensils are not to be placed on hot surfaces. The surface may not be used for storage.

Clearance
The distance between the top side of the tabletop and the carpentry underneath must be at least 45 mm.
Fixing
Screw the fixing brackets out to such an extent that they can be turned in under the table top. Tighten the brackets on to the table top with an ordinary screwdriver.
Cut-out measurements
One rectangular hole is sawn out for the hob combination chosen. The depth of the cut-out for any unit is: 490 mm Length of hole = sum of all units` externally measured lenght, less 20 mm.
Mounting of Reinforcement Beams
A reinforcement Beam, with supporting flanges at each end, is included with each two-burner unit. For unit combinations, a reinforcement beam must be used between each unit. It is not necessary to attach the reinforcement beam to the table surface, as it is held in place by a specially designed moulding, which is incorporated in the hob unit´s flanges.

Installation of a single unit
When mounting a single unit, be it a half-or full size unit, in a table surface which is thicker than 30 mm, it is necessary to make a special notch in both sides of the cut-out hole, as shown in the adjacent drawing. The purpose of these notches is to create space for the electrical cables.
