Safety
• Do not touch the appliance surface.
• Do not use the appliance.
WARNING!
The appliance is not intended to be used by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a
safe way and understands the hazards involved.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
• Do not allow children to clean or maintain the appliance unless
supervised.
WARNING!
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional
ventilation, for example opening of a window, or more effective
ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present.
• The burner components are hot during and immediately after use.
Do not touch them, and avoid contact with non-heat resistant
materials.
• The distance between the pan and a knob or non-heat resistant
wall should always be greater than one centimetre. In case of
smaller distances, the high temperature may cause the knobs or

Safety
Safe use
• Do not keep objects that children might find interesting in cupboards above or behind the
appliance.
• The cooking zones/burners heat up during use and stay hot for a while afterwards. Keep young
children away from the hob during and immediately after cooking.
• Never flambé under a cooker hood. The high flames can cause a fire, even if the cooker hood
is switched off.
• Do not warm closed tins on the hob. There will be a build-up of pressure that will cause tins to
explode. You might get injured or scalded.
• Never cover the appliance with a cloth or something similar. If the appliance is still hot or is
switched on, there is a risk of fire.
• Do not use the appliance as a worktop. The appliance may accidentally be switched on or still
be hot, which means objects could melt, become hot or catch fire.
• Do not use the appliance in temperatures below 5 °C.
• The appliance should not be placed or used outdoors.
• When you use the hob for the first time you will notice a “new smell”. Don’t worry, this is normal.
If the kitchen is well ventilated, the smell will soon disappear.
• The ceramic top is extremely strong, but not unbreakable. For example, a spice jar or sharp
utensil falling on it could cause it to break.
• Never immerse hot burner caps and pan supports in cold water. The rapid cooling can damage
the enamel.
• Always use the pan supports and suitable cookware.
• Always place the pan on the pan support. Placing the pan directly on the burner cap can result
in dangerous situations.
• Aluminium trays or foil are not suitable as cooking utensils. They can burn into the burner caps
and pan supports.
• The hob can only function effectively if the burner components have been assembled using the
guide ridges. Ensure that the pan supports lie properly against each other and flat on the drip
tray. Only then can the pans be positioned stably.
• Keep oven gloves or oven cloths away from the flame.
• Do not use griddle plates or baking plates.
• Clean the burner parts regularly for safe and correct operation of the burners.
• Missing rubber feet from the pan supports can cause scratches on the drip tray or poor
combustion of the burner. If the rubber feet are missing, please contact our service department.

Use
Pans
Always ensure that the flames remain under the pan. A lot of energy is lost when flames burn around
the outside of the pan. The handles could also become too hot.
WARNING!
The distance between the pan and a knob or non-heat resistant wall
should always be greater than one centimetre. In case of smaller
distances, the high temperature may cause the knobs or wall to
discolour and/or deform.
Suitable cookware
Only use cookware with a suitable diameter. The cookware must not protrude over the edge of the
hob. Never use small cookware on large burners. The flames must not touch the sides of the cookware.
Refer to the table.

Use
Wok ring and simmer grid
Small pan support + simmer gridLarge pan support + wok ring
The wok ring for use with the wok burner supplied or obtainable as an accessory provides extra
stability for woks with a round base.
The small pan grid-supplied or obtainable as an accessory makes it possible to use very small pans.
CAUTION!
Only use the lowest power setting when using the simmer grid on the wok burner. The simmer
grid may discolour when used on a wok burner with a medium or high power setting.
Only use the wok ring on the large pan support in combination with a (round-based) wok. The
wok ring may discolour if using a wok with a flat bottom.
Pan support
Place the pan support vertically, without sliding it over the glass top. Use the positioning notches to
position the pan support on the glass top.

Maintenance
Daily cleaning
Regular maintenance after use prevents spilt food from setting too long and creating stubborn stains.
Use a mild detergent for this.
First clean the control knobs, burners and pan support and only then the drip tray or glass cover.
This prevents the drip tray or glass cover to becoming dirty again after cleaning.
NOTE!
• Burner parts should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
• Dishwasher detergents can corrode burner parts!
Stubborn stains
Persistent stains can best be removed with a fluid detergent or a plastic scouring sponge. Never
use scouring powder, scouring pads, sharp objects or aggressive cleaning products.
Persistent stains on the glass cover
Clean the glass cover with a special cleaning product for ceramic hobs. Water stains or limescale
are best cleaned using cleaning vinegar.
NOTE!
• Never use abrasives. These leave scratches in which dirt and limescale can accumulate.
• Never use anything sharp such as steel wool or scourers.
Persistent stains on the stainless steel (drip trays)
Persistent stains on stainless steel are best removed with a special stainless steel cleaning product.
Always wipe with the structure of the steel to prevent scraping away the protective layer (damage
caused in this way does not fall under the guarantee!) The surface of stainless steel drip trays can
discolour slightly over time.
Brass wok burner parts
Some wok burner parts are made of brass. It is not unusual to see a change in the colour of the
brass as a result of the high temperatures involved in wok use.
TIP!
Consult the website for additional maintenance and cleaning instructions!
