over 60°C and is therefore high enough to cause
injury.
o If you switch off the appliance using the ON/OFF button (1) then
the “H” will remain in the cooking zone indicator (6) whilst the
temperature of the zone remains above 60°C.
o When the temperature of the zone falls below 60°C, then the

of the countdown period, press the plus (14) and minus (13)
buttons of the timer simultaneously.
o IMPORTANT: If you cancel the timer setting, the selected zone
will still remain on, therefore you will need to turn the zone off
manually.
Hob guidelines
o The first few times the hob top is used, it may give off an acrid,
burning smell. This smell will disappear completely with repeated
use.
o The hob surface is fitted with cooking areas of different diametre
and power.
o The positions where the heat will radiate from are clearly marked
on the hob top. The saucepans must be positioned exactly on
these zones for efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the
same diametre as the cooking zone that they are being used on.
o You should not use saucepans with rough bottoms, as this can
scratch the ceramic surface.
o Before use, make sure that the bottoms of the saucepans are
clean and dry.
o When cold, the bottom of the pans should be slightly concave, as
they expand when hot and lie flat on the surface of the hob. This
will allow the heat to transfer more easily.
o The best thickness for the bottom of the pans is 2 – 3 mm of
enamelled steel and 4 – 6 mm for stainless steel with sandwich
type bottoms.
o If these rules are not followed, then there will be a great loss of
heat and energy. Heat not absorbed by the saucepan, will spread
to the hob, frame and surrounding cabinets.
o Preferably cover pans with a lid to permit cooking at a lower
heat.
o Always cook vegetables and potatoes, etc. in as little water to
reduce cooking times.
21
Page 22
o Food or liquid that has high sugar content may damage the hob
top if it comes into contact with the ceramic hob surface. Any
spillages should be wiped up immediately, however this may not
prevent the hob surface from becoming damaged.
o IMPORTANT: The ceramic hob surface is tough; however it is
not unbreakable and can be damaged. Especially if pointed or
hard objects are allowed to fall on it with some force.
o DO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN
OR CRACKED. YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE BAUMATIC
SERVICE DEPARTMENT IMMEDIATELY.
Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning operations must only be carried out
when the hob is cool.
The appliance should be disconnected from your
mains supply before commencing any cleaning
process.
Cleaning the ceramic hob top
Any residues that are left on the hob top surface from cleaning
agents will damage it. You should remove any residues with
warm soapy water.
Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage the hob surface;
you should clean it using warm water, mixed with a little
washing up liquid.
Although it is easier to clean some deposits whilst the hob
surface is still warm. You should take care not to burn yourself if
you are cleaning the hob surface when it is still warm.
After each use
o Wipe the appliance over with a damp cloth.
o Dry the appliance by rubbing the surface with a clean cloth.

use on your appliance.
23
Page 24
Installation
The installation must be carried out by a suitably
qualified person, in accordance with the current
version of the following.
o UK Regulations and Safety Standards or their European
Norm Replacements.
o Building Regulations (issued by the Department of the
Environment).
o Building Standards (issued by the Scottish Development
Department).
o IEE Wiring Regulations.
o Electricity At Work Regulations.
Positioning
The adjacent furniture must be able to withstand a
minimum temperature rise of 85°C above the ambient
temperature of the room it is located in, during
periods of use.
This appliance is classified as Class 3 and therefore is to be built into a
kitchen unit (depending on size) or 600 mm worktop, providing the
following minimum distances are allowed:
o 700 mm between the hob surface and the underside of any
horizontal surface above it.
o 50 mm clearance around the appliance and between the hob
surface and any combustible materials.
Unpacking the appliance
When unpacking the appliance please check that the following items
are contained within the packaging:
1 Baumatic hob
1 Ceramic hob scraper
1 Installation and instruction manual
1 Baumatic guarantee card
4 Fixing brackets
4 Fixing screws
4 Spring clips
1 Sealing strip
24
Page 25
Installing the appliance
o Cut a hole in the worktop that corresponds with the drawings
shown above.
o IMPORTANT: You must have a gap of at least 25 mm between
the underneath of the appliance and any surface that is below it.
o Carefully turn the hob upside down and place it on a cushioned
mat.
o Apply the sealing strip provided around the edge of the
appliance.
o The protective covering must be removed from both sides.
o Do not leave a gap in the sealing agent or overlap the thickness.
o IMPORTANT: Do not use a silicon sealant to seal the appliance
against the cut-out. This will make it difficult to remove the hob
from the aperture in future, particularly if it needs to be
serviced.
25
Page 26
(A) Clip
(B) Fixing bracket
(C) Screw
o You should insert a clip (A) into the holes which are located in
each corner of the hob.
o Place the fixing brackets (B) over each hole and clip, and then
place a screw (C) through the hole and fixing bracket (B).
Tighten the screws a little way, so that they stay in place.
IMPORTANT: Do not tighten the screws fully.
o Carefully turn the hob back over and then gently lower it into the
aperture hole that you have cut out.
o On the underneath of the hob,
locate the fixing brackets (B) and
turn them so that they locate on
the underneath of the worktop
and the hob.
o Fully tighten the screws (C) to
secure the hob into position.

switched on. You should switch the appliance on again, using the
ON/OFF button.
* The safety lock has been switched on (see the “Locking the hob
top” section for information on how to turn off the safety lock).
* Several cooking zone selection buttons have been pressed at
once. You should only touch one cooking zone selection button at
once.
* The safety cut out has been triggered. Press the ON/OFF button
(1) to reset the appliance.
* Check that the mains electrical supply to the appliance is correct
and working. Check the mains fuse.
o The residual heat indicator has not come on after I have
switched a cooking zone off.
* The cooking zone has only been turned on for a short period of
time; therefore it did not go above 60°C.
* IMPORTANT: If the cooking zone does appear to be hotter than
60°C and the residual heat indicator has not come on, you
should call the Baumatic Service Department.
o A humming sound is heard when a cooking zone is
selected.
* This is normal; the sound will disappear when the zone heats up.

o The cooking zones have become discoloured
* This maybe caused by burnt on remnants of food. This will not
affect the working of the appliance. However you should make
sure that the cleaning instructions are being followed regularly.
o Only two of the zones on my hob are working
* You should recheck that the terminal screws are all fully
tightened between the links.
IMPORTANT: If your appliance appears not to be
operating correctly, then you should disconnect it
from your mains supply and then contact the
Baumatic Service Department on telephone
number (0118) 933 6911.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE APPLIANCE
YOURSELF.
Please note that if an engineer is asked to attend whilst the product is
under guarantee and finds that the problem is not the result of an
appliance fault, then you may be liable for the cost of the call out
charge.
The appliance must be accessible for the engineer to perform
any necessary repair. If your appliance is installed in such a
way that an engineer is concerned that damage will be caused
to the appliance or your kitchen, then he will not complete a
repair.
This includes situations where appliances have been tiled in,
sealed in with sealant, have wooden obstructions placed in
front of the appliance, like plinths. Or any installation other
than the one specified by Baumatic Ltd. has been completed.
Please refer to the conditions of guarantee document on page 31 of
this instruction manual for clarification of this.
