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. The appliance is not intended for use by young chil­dren or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
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.
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.

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
Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic glass cooking surface and 4 rapid response cooking zones. The particularly powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the amount of time taken for the zones to heat up.
Cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface is its easy cleaning. The smooth surface is easy to keep clean (see section: “Clean­ing and care”).
Double-ring cooking zone: The cooking surface possesses a double-ring cooking zone. This pro­vides the appliance with a cooking zone with a var­iable size, for instance for smaller pots. This is a saving in energy.
Residual heat indicator: The residual heat indica- tor lights up if the cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burning.

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.
Ring Switches
The heat settings are continuously variable be­tween settings 1-10.
1 = lowest power 10 = highest power Z = double ring switching
Cooking on the Zones
1. Select a high setting for heating up / browning.
2. As soon a steam starts to form or the oil is hot, turn
back to the heat setting necessary for further cooking.
3. To stop cooking, turn back to the zero position.
2 Switch off the cooking zone approx. 5-10 min-
utes before the end of the cooking to make use of the residual heat. Doing this will save electricity.
7
Switching on the Dual-ring Cooking Zone
1 The switch for the dual-ring cooking zone is
switched on by turning clockwise and must not be turned past the stop!
1. Turn the switch for the dual-ring cooking zone clockwise. Turn past position 10 to the „dual-ring“ symbol until it stops.
2. Then turn back to the required heat setting for cooking.
3. To stop cooking, turn back to the off position.
3 The next time the dual-ring cooking zone is re-
quired, repeat the above procedure.
Residual heat indicator
The ceramic cooking zone is equipped with a residu­al heat indicator, a control lamp is allocated to each cooking zone. This lights up as soon the correspond­ing cooking zone is hot and warns against inadver­tant contact. The residual heat indicator only goes out when the cooking zone has cooled down even when the cook­ing zone is switched Off.
2 You can use the residual heat for melting and
keeping food warm.
1 Important! As long as the residual heat indi-
cator is illuminated, there is a risk of burns.
1 Important! If the power supply is interrupted
the residual heat indicator also go out and in­formation about residual heat will no longer be available. However, it is still possible to burn yourself. This can be avoided by being partic­ularly attentive.

Uses, Tables and Tips
Pans
The better the pan, the better the results.
You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible.
Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring on the glass ceramic surface, which is very difficult or impossible to remove.
Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged base. This can produce perma­nent scratching if the pan is slid across the sur­face.
When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex).
If you wish to use special types of pan (e.g. a pres­sure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.), please ob­serve the manufacturer's instructions.
2 Energy saving tips
You can save valuable energy by observing the fol­lowing points:
Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone.
Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power consumption.
Whenever possible always position the lids firmly on pots and pans to cover completely.
Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the cooking time to use the residual heat such as to keep foods warm or for melting.
The base of the pan should be the same size as the cooking zone.
Using a pressure cooker reduces cooking times by up to 50%.

Cleaning and Care
Hob
1 Important: Cleaning agents must not come
into contact with the hot ceramic glass sur­face! All cleaning agents must be removed with plenty of clean water after cleaning be­cause they can have a caustic effect when the rings are next heated! Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven sprays, coarse scourers or abra­sive pan cleaners.
3 Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use
when it is warm to the touch or cold. This will avoid spillages becoming burnt on. Remove scale and water marks, fat spots and discolouration with a metallic shimmer using a commercially available ceramic glass or stain­less steel cleaner.
Light Soiling
1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid.
2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. Remnants of cleaner must not be left on the surface.
3. Thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass cooking surface once a week with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner.
4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface using plenty of clean water and rub dry with a clean fluff-free cloth.
11
Stubborn Soiling
1. To remove food that has boiled over or stubborn splashes, use a glass scraper.
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface.
3. Remove soiling by sliding the blade.
3 You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic
glass cleaners from specialist retailers.
1 Problem Dirt
1. Remove burnt-on sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other meltable materials with a glass scraper immediately and while still hot.
1 Important: There is a risk of burning yourself
when the glass scraper is used on a hot cook­ing zone!
2. Then clean the hob normally when it has cooled down.
3 If the cooking zone on which something has
melted has already cooled down, warm it up again for cleaning. Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic glass surface, caused for example by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot be removed. How­ever, they do not impair the function of the hob.
12
What to do if
Rectifying faults
It is possible that faults have been caused by a minor error, which you can correct yourself with the help of the following instructions. Do not attempt any further repairs if the following instructions do not help in each specific case.
1 Warning! Repairs to the appliance are only to
be carried out by approved service engineers. Improperly effected repairs may result in con­siderable risk to the user. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your specialist dealer or customer service.
What to do when …

1 Safety Instructions for
the Installer
A device must be provided in the electrical installa­tion which allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm. Suitable isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses are to be re­moved from the holder), earth leakage trips and contactors.
In respect of fire protection, this appliance corre­sponds to EN 60 335-2-6. This type of appliance may be installed with a high cupboard or wall on one side.
Drawers may not be fitted underneath the hob.
The installation must guarantee shock protection.
The kitchen unit in which the appliance is fitted
must satisfy the stability requirements of DIN 68930.
For protection against moisture, all cut surfaces are to be sealed with a suitable sealant.
On tiled work surfaces, the joints in the area where the hob sits must be completely filled with grout.
On natural, artificial stone, or ceramic tops, the snap action springs must be bonded in place with a suitable artificial resin or mixed adhesive.
Ensure that the seal is correctly seated against the work surface without any gaps. Additional silicon sealant must not be applied; this would make re­moval more difficult when servicing.
The hob must be pressed out from below when re­moved.
Clean the worktop around the cut-out area.
Stick the single-sided adhesive sealing tape pro-
vided on the underside of the hob around the out­side edge ensuring that it is not stretched. The two ends of the tape should join in the middle of one side. After trimming the tape (allow it to overlap by 2-3 mm), press the two ends together.
For Australia:
CAUTION: The surface temperature exceeds 95°C. To avoid a hazard, underbench access must be re­stricted.
Supply cords must have a temperature rating not less than 105°C.
15
Electrical Connection
Before connecting, check that the nominal voltage of the appliance, that is the voltage stated on the rating plate, corresponds to the available supply voltage. The rating plate is located on the lower casing of the hob. The heating element voltage is AC230 V ~. The appli­ance also works perfectly on older networks with AC220V~. The hob is to be connected to the mains using a de­vice that allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm, eg. automatic line protecting cut-out,earth leakage tripsor fuse. A type H05VV-F cable or one with a higher grade must be used as the mains connecting cable. The connection must be carried out as shown in the diagram. The connecting links should be fitted ac­cording to the appropriate connection diagram. The earth lead is connected to terminal E. The earth lead must be longer than leads carrying electric current.
The cable connections must be made in accord­ance with regulations and the terminal screws tightened securely.
Finally, the connecting cable is to be secured with the mains cable cleat and the covering closed by pressing firmly (lock into place). Before switching on for the first time, any protective foil or stickers must be removed from the glass ce­ramic surface.

Service
In the “What to do if …” section a number of mal­functions are listed that you can rectify yourself Look there first if a fault occurs.
Is it a technical fault?
If so, please contact your customer service centre. (You will find addresses and telephone numbers in the section “Customer Service Centres”.)
Always prepare in advance for the discussion. This will make diagnosis of the problem easier and also make it easier to decide if a customer service visit is necessary:
Please make a note of the following information as accurately as possible:
What form does the fault take?
Under what circumstances does the fault occur?
Prior to the telephone call it is important that you make a note of the following appliance code num­bers that are given on the rating plate:
model description,
PNC code (9 digits),
S No code (8 digits).
We recommend that you record the code numbers here so that you always have them to hand:
Model: . . . . . . . . . . .
PNC: . . . . . . . . . . .
S-No: . . . . . . . . . . .
When do you incur costs even during the warranty period?
if you could have remedied the fault yourself using the fault table (see section “What to do if …”),
if the customer service technician has to make several journeys because he was not provided with all the relevant information before his visit and therefore, forexample, has to fetch spare parts. These multiple trips can be avoided if you prepare your phone call as described above.
