Directions for Use
1. Do not touch the appliance with wet hands.
2. Do not operate the appliance when barefoot.
3. Do not allow children to operate the hob.
4. Please disconnect the power supply before any maintenance and cleaning.
5. When the hob is working, the temperature of the hob top increases. Please do not touch and
keep children away from it.
6. A steam cleaner must not be used to clean the appliance.
7. The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate
remote-control system.
8. The power supply should use H05VV-F,3x4mm².
9. The hob must be built into a heat-resistant cabinet. Smoke may be visible when first used – this
is normal. Please leave on for a few minutes to burn off excess oils used during manufacture.
Operation
The electric plates can either be standard or rapid type. The latter feature a red spot in the centre.
According to requirements, the plates can be adjusted by turning the knobs either clockwise or
anti-clockwise to any of the 6 positions besides the 0 position (Off). The higher the number, the
greater the output of heat (see table below). When using rapid plates, a thermostat automatically
reduces the power when the selected temperature is reached and the plate cycles intermittently to
keep a constant cooking temperature. The indicator light is a signal that the electric plates are
switched on.
The level of heat can be adjusted gradually by turning the appropriate knob to the right or left.
The indicator light can be found on the control panel – please see above diagrams.

Danger of fire: Do not store items on the cooking surfaces.
CAUTION: The cooking process has to be supervised. short term
cooking process has to be supervised continuously.
WARNING: Unattended cooking on a hob with fat or oil can be
dangerous and may result in a fire.
An appropriately sized pan saves energy.
The correct pan should have a thick, flat base, with a diameter equal to the plate diameter,
so that heat is transferred more efficiently.
Advice on the Use of Electric Plates
Never leave the plates on without pans on them, or with empty pans and never use the
plates to heat crockery. Switch on the plates after having set the pans on them.
Once switched off, the plates remain warm for a while, do not touch.
Switch off the heating plate before removing the pans.

Pans
- Use pans with flat bottoms. Uneven or thin bottoms will waste energy and are slow to
cook.
- Smaller pans will waste energy.
- Do not use oversized pans. More than 50mm overhang can cause components to
overheat and cause fine cracks in enamel or even damage heating elements.
- Use only dry pans. Do not place wet or condensated items (eg. lids) on the hotplates.
Use
- Do not use pots and pans that are unsteady and likely to rock or overturn.
- Do not operate the hob for an extended time without a pan on the hotplate.

Cleaning
Turn off the mains before carrying out any maintenance and wait for the hob to cool down.
We advise using lukewarm water and detergent to clean enamelled elements. Never use
abrasive products. Rinse the stainless steel with water and dry using a soft cloth. Use
sponges or a moist cloth to clean the tops and remember that water can damage electric
parts. Clean tough stains using non-abrasive detergents, or warm vinegar.
Important Notice
After use, a discolouration of the stainless steel hotplate rims is to be expected and cannot
be avoided. This does not affect its operation.

Fitting Guidelines
The voltage rating of the hob heating elements is 220-240V. Adapting the hob to operate
with one-phase current is possible by appropriate bridging in the connection box according
to the connection diagram below. The connection diagram is also shown on the cover of the
connection box. Remember that the connection wire should match the connection type and
the power rating of the hob.
