– 73/23/EEC dated 19.02.1973 Low Voltage Direc-
tive
– 89/336/EEC dated 03.05.1989 EMC Directive in-
clusive of Amending Directive 92/31/EEC
– 93/68/EEC dated 22.07.1993 CE Marking Directive
Correct use
This appliance should be used only for normal do­mestic cooking and frying of food.
The appliance must not be used as a work surface or as a storage surface.
Additions or modifications to the appliance are not permitted.
Do not place or store flammable liquids, highly in­flammable materials or fusible objects (e.g. plastic film, plastic, aluminium) on or near the appliance.
Child Safety
The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always keep small children away from the appliance.
For Australia: 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.
Safety during use
Remove stickers and film from the glass ceramic.
There is the risk of burns from the appliance if used
carelessly.
Cables from electrical appliances must not touch the hot surface of the appliance or hot cookware.
Overheated fats and oils can ignite quickly. When cooking with fat or oil (e.g. chips) do not leave the appliance unattended.
Switch the cooking zones off after each use.
Safety when cleaning
For cleaning, the appliance must be switched off and cooled down.
For safety reasons, the cleaning of the appliance with steam jet or high-pressure cleaning equip­ment is not permitted.
How to avoid damage to the appli­ance
The glass ceramic can be damaged by objects fall­ing onto it.
The edge of the glass ceramic can be damaged by being knocked by the cookware.
Cookware made of cast iron, cast aluminium or with damaged bottoms can scratch the glass ce­ramic if pushed across the surface.
Objects that melt and things that boil over can burn onto the glass ceramic and should be re­moved straightaway.
Do not use the cooking zones with empty cook­ware or without cookware.
General safety
The appliance may only be installed and connect­ed by trained, registered service engineers.
Built-in appliances may only be used after they have built in to suitable built-in units and work sur­faces that meet standards.
In the event of faults with the appliance or damage to the glass ceramic (cracks, scratches or splits), the appliance must be switched off and discon­nected from the electrical supply, to prevent the possibility of an electric shock.
Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by trained registered service engineers.

If after switching on the cooking surface, a heat
setting is not set for a cooking zone within approx. 10 seconds, the cooking surface automatically switches itself off.
If one or more sensor fields are covered for longer
than approx. 10 seconds, e.g. by a pan placed upon it, a signal sounds and the cooking surface switches off automatically.
If all cooking zones are switched off, the cooking
surface automatically switches itself off after ap­prox. 10 seconds.

Tips on Cooking and Frying
Information on acrylamides
3
According to the latest scientific knowledge, intensive browning of food, especially in prod­ucts containing starch, can constitute a health risk due to acrylamides. Therefore we recom­mend cooking at the lowest possible tempera­tures and not browning foods too much.
Cookware
You can recognise good cookware from the bot-
toms of the pans. The bottom should be as thick and flat as possible.
Cookware made of enamelled steel or with alumin-
ium or copper bottoms can leave discolorations on the glass ceramic surface which are difficult or im­possible to remove.
Energy saving
2 Always place cookware on the cooking zone
before it is switched on.
2 If possible, always place lids on the pans.
2 Switch cooking zones off before the end of the
cooking time, to take advantage of residual heat.
2 Bottom of pans and cooking zones should be
the same size.

Installation Instructions
Safety instructions
The laws, ordinances, directives and standards in force in the country of use are to be followed (safety regulations, proper recycling in accordance with the regulations, etc.) Installation may only be carried out by a qualified electrician. The minimum distances to other appliances and units are to be observed.
A protective floor must be installed under the ap­pliance.
The cut surfaces of the worktop are to be protected against moisture using a suitable sealant. The sealant seals the appliance to the work top with no gap. Avoid installing the appliance next to doors and un­der windows. Otherwise hot cookware may be knocked off the rings when doors and windows are opened.
1 WARNING!
Risk of injury from electrical current.
The electrical mains terminal is live.
Make electrical mains terminal free of voltage.
Observe connection schematic.
Observe electrical safety rules.
Ensure anti-shock protection through correct in-
stallation by a qualified electrician.
The appliance must be connected to the electrical
supply by a qualified electrician.
1 IMPORTANT!
Risk of injury from electrical current. Loose and inappropriate plug and socket connec­tions can make the terminal overheat.
Have the clamping joints correctedly installed by a
qualified electrician.
Use strain relief clamp on cable. 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.
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 AC230V~. The appli­ance also works perfectly on networks with AC220V~ or AC240 V ~. 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 cable with minimum temperature rating of V90HT 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.
1 Once connected to the mains supply check
that all cooking zones are ready for use by briefly switching each on in turn at the maxi­mum setting.
Sticking on the seal
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.
