1 Safety instructions
Warning! Notes that concern your personal safety.
Important! Notes that show how to avoid damage to the appliance.
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 Service Force Centre.
3Please 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.
Special Notes on Induction Cooking Zones
• Scientific studies have shown that patients who are fitted with implanted pacemakers are not normally affected or put at risk by our
induction cooking zones.
The distance between the body and the cooking zone should, however, never be less than 30 cm!
• Electromagnetic fields can affect electronic circuits and interfere
with portable transistor radios.
• Do not put magnetically rechargeable objects (e.g., credit cards, cassettes) on the ceramic glass surface while one or more induction
cooking zones are in use!
• Do not put any metallic objects (e.g., spoons, pan lids) on the induction surface as they can be warmed up when the induction surface is
in use.
3Some cookware can produce noises when used on induction cooking
zones. This is not a fault in the hob and its function will not be impaired in any way as a result.
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.
6
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.

Function and the Way the Induction Cooking Zone Works
A copper wire induction coil is beneath the ceramic glass cooking surface. This generates electromagnetic fields, which act directly on the
base of the pots and pans and not, as with other heating up methods,
first heating the ceramic glass. This means that the base of the pan is immediately heated up, which saves time and energy.
Since the heat required for cooking is generated directly in the base of
the pan the cooking zone itself hardly warms up. It only receives the reflected heat from the pan base.
Note:
If there is no pot or pan on the cooking zone there is no energy transfer
(heating up) and therefore gives protection against the cooking zones
being switched on accidentally.
3A cooling fan is an integral part of this hob and comes on automatical-
ly depending on the temperature of the induction cooking zone. The
cooling fan works in two speed levels depending on usage. The cooling
fan will continue to run for a short period after the cooking zone has
been switched off.
The Digital Displays
Digits 1 to 9 and four different letters can appear in the display.
• The digits show the cooking stage set:
1= Lowest capacity
9 = Highest capacity
• The following letters and functions are displayed for all cooking
zones:
1 h = Residual Heat Display
Danger! Cooking zone still hot; it extinguishes when the cooking zone
has cooled down. This display appears only if the cooking zone is
switched off.
a = Automatic heating-up (possible for all cooking zones)
is lit, if the cooking zone is set to automatic heating-up; (is lit until the
automatic feature switches over to the set continued cooking stage).
_ = Lights up when the automatic switch-off function has been activated (also see “What to do if ...?”).
10
The following letters and functions are displayed only with the two induction cooking zones.
1 f = Error display
flashes if the cooking zone is activated and
– no pan is on the cooking zone or
– unsuitable pots and pans are used
p = Power function
lights up when the Power function is activated.
The Power function supplies extra-high heating capacity. It can be activated for the front left cooking zone.
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 were switched on, and _
after they have cooled down.
The rings are switched off at:
• Heat setting1 - 2after 6 hours
• Heat setting3 - 4after 5 hours
• Heat setting5after 4 hours
• Heat setting6 - 9after 1.5 hours
3If 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
Liquids that boil over onto the control panel cause 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.

Suitable Kitchenware for Induction Cooking Zones
Pots and Pans
• In principle all pots and pans with magnetic bases are suitable. These
are steel, steel-enamel as well as cast-iron pots and pans.
• High grade steel pans with a mixed metal base (sandwich base, e.g.
Tefal with an aluminium/copper base) are suitable for induction only
if the manufacturer has expressly marked them as such. In that case
they have a ferromagnetic percentage in the base.
• If you wish to use a special type of pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.), please observe the manufacturer's instructions.
• Aluminium, copper, brass, stainless steel pots and pans (unless specifically designated as suitable for induction), glass, ceramic or porcelain
are not suitable for induction cooking zones. The cooking zone reacts
as if it were being used without a pot or pan: Error code f.
Look for the label: Suitable for induction!
Suitability Test
If you are not sure if a pot or pan is suitable for cooking or frying on
the induction cooking zone you can check this as follows:
• Place a pot filled with a little water (3-5 mm filling height) on the
cooking zone.
Switch the cooking zone to full power (switch setting 9).
Caution: The pan base of suitable kitchenware heats up within a
few seconds!
• You can also check this with a magnet. If it remains fixed to the base
the pan is suitable for induction cooking zones.
12
Pan Size
Up to a certain limit the induction cooking zone adapts itself to the
size of the pan base diameter. However, the pan base diameter must be
of a minimum size, depending on the size of the cooking zone.
Diameter of the cooking zone 14,5 cm:
Diameter of the pan base at least 12 cm
Diameter of the cooking zone 18 cm:
Diameter of the pan base at least 14,5 cm
Diameter of the cooking zone 21 cm:
Diameter of the pan base at least 18 cm
