READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
When properly cared for, your new appliance has been designed to be safe and reliable. Read all instructions carefully before use. These precautions will reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, and injury to persons. When using kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions must be followed, including those in the following pages.
Examine the appliance after unpacking it. In the event of transport damage, do not plug it in.
Fire Safety
Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to come in contact with a hot surface element, burner or grate. Do not allow pans to boil dry.
If the cooktop is near a window, forced air vent or fan, be certain that flammable materials such as window coverings do not blow over or near the burners or elements. They could catch on fire.
Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen. Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:
a.
Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
b.
Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat.
c.
Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d.
Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
Do not flambé under the extractor hood or work with a naked flame. When switched on, the extractor hood draws flames into the filter. There is a risk of fire due to deposits on the grease filter!
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby, highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance.
Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a.
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b.
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
c.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
- The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
- The fire department is being called.
- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach through fire to turn it off.
Cooking Safety
WARNING
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in overheating the appliance. Never use the appliance for storage.
Never use the appliance if liquids or foods have spilled around the control panel. Always turn off the cooktop and dry the control panel.
Injury and damage to the appliance may occur if control elements are not used properly.
If the cooktop turns off automatically and can no longer be operated, it may turn itself on unintentionally at a later point. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
Burn Prevention
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS - Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.
4
9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when necessary. To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting. Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
If the display does not work when a cooking area is heating up, disconnect the circuit breaker from the fuse box. Contact an authorized servicer.
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.
CAUTION
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety
Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet clothes and sponges can cause burns from steam.
Do not use steam cleaners to clean the appliance.
Cookware Safety
Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.
Use Proper Pan Size. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or burner will also improve efficiency.
Cookware not approved for use with ceramic cooktops may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only pans that are appropriate for ceramic cooktops (only certain types of glass, heatproof glass, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable).
Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and burns.
WARNING
RISK OF INJURY When cooking with a bain-marie, the cooktop and
cooking vessel may crack due to overheating. The cooking vessel in the bain-marie must not come in direct contact with the bottom of the pot filled with water. Use only heat-resistant cookware.
Always keep the cooktop and bases of pots dry. Liquid between the potbase and the cooktop may build up steam pressure, causing the pot to jump suddenly and causing injury.
Proper Installation and Maintenance
Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
This appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. Refer to Installation Instructions for details.
This appliance is intended for normal family household use only. It is not approved for outdoor use. See the Warranty. If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer.
Do not store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, flammables or nonfood products on or near this appliance. It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury.
Do not operate this appliance if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged. Contact an authorized servicer.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. Cleaning solutions and spillovers may create a risk of electric shock. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box if the ceramic has fractures, flaws or cracks. Call an authorized servicer.
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual. Refer all servicing to a factory authorized service center.
To avoid electrical shock hazard, before servicing the appliance, switch power off at the service panel and lock the panel to prevent the power from being switched on accidentally.
State of California Proposition 65 Warnings
WARNING
This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
6

Causes of damage

Scratches on glass ceramic surface: Cookware with
rough bottoms will scratch the glass ceramic surface.
Salt, sugar and sand: Salt, sugar or grains of sand will
scratch the glass ceramic surface. Never use the cooktop as a working surface or for setting things down.
Overheated cookware: Avoid heating pots or pans
that are empty.
Hot cookware: Never set down hot pans and pots on
the control panel or frame. This may cause damage.

Protecting the environment

Energy-saving advice
Always place a fitting lid on cookware. Cooking with
an uncovered pan will result in a four-fold increase in energy use. Use a glass lid to provide visibility and avoid having to lift the lid.
Use cookware equipped with a solid, flat bottom.
Curved pan bases increase energy consumption.
Hard and sharp objects: Hard or sharp objects falling
on the cooktop may damage it.
Boiled-over food: Sugar and products containing
sugar may damage the cooktop. Immediately eliminate spills of these products with a glass scraper.
Foils and plastics: Aluminum foil and plastic will melt
on the hot cooking zones. Stove protective film isn't suitable for your cooktop.
Unsuitable cleaning agent: Shimmering metallic
discolorations on the glass ceramic surface result from the use of inappropriate cleaning agents and abrasion from cookware.
The diameter of the pan base must match the size of
the element. If not, energy may be wasted. Note: The manufacturer normally indicates the pan's upper diameter. This is normally greater than the diameter of the pan's base.
Choose cookware of a size suited to the amount of
food you are going to cook. A large pan that is only half full will use a lot of energy.
Use a small amount of water when cooking. This
saves energy, and vegetables retain a larger percentage of their vitamins and minerals.
Select a lower power level.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Daily Cleaning
Note: Recommended cleaners indicate a type of cleaner
and do not constitute an endorsement of a specific brand.
Glass ceramic cooktop
9 CAUTION
Do not use any kind of cleaner on the glass while the surface is hot, use only the razor blade scraper. The resulting fumes can be hazardous to your health. Heating the cleaner can chemically attack and damage the surface.
Clean the surface when it is completely cool with the following exception: remove dry sugar, sugar syrup, tomato products and milk immediately with the razor blade scraper (see special care chart).
Wipe off spatters with a clean, damp sponge or a paper towel. Rinse and dry. Use white vinegar if smudge remains; rinse.
Apply a small amount of the glass ceramic cooktop cleaner. When dry, buff surface with a clean paper towel or cloth.
Stainless steel side trim
Wipe with the grain when cleaning. For moderate/heavy soil, use BonAmi® or Soft Scrub® (no bleach).
Wipe using a damp sponge or cloth, rinse and dry.
Cleaning guidelines
When using a cleaner, use only a small amount; apply to a clean paper towel or cloth. Wipe on the surface and buff with a clean dry towel.
For best results, use cleaners such as glass ceramic cooktop cleaner, BonAmi®, Soft Scrub® (without bleach), and white vinegar.
Avoid these cleaners
Glass cleaners which contain ammonia or chlorine
bleach. These ingredients may damage or permanently stain the cooktop.
Caustic cleaners - cleaners such as Easy Off® may
stain the cooktop surface.
Abrasive cleaners.Metal scouring pads and scrub sponges such as
Scotch Brite® can scratch and/or leave metal marks.
Soap-filled scouring pads such as SOS® can scratch
the surface.
Powdery cleaners containing chlorine bleach can
permanently stain the cooktop.
Flammable cleaners such as lighter fluid or WD-40.
Cleaning charts
Type of Soil Possible Solution Dry sugar, sugar syrup, milk or tomato spills. Melted
plastic film or foil. All these items REQUIRE IMMEDIATE REMOVAL. Failure to remove these immediatly can per­manently damage the surface.
Burned-on food soil, dark streaks, and specks Soften by laying a damp paper towel or sponge on top of

soil for 30 minutes. Use a plastic scrubber and glass ceramic cooktop cleaner or use the razor blade scraper. Rinse and dry.
thoroughly and dry. Apply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner.
13
Type of Soil Possible Solution Metal marks: Iridescent stain Pans with aluminum, copper or stainless steel bases may
leave marks. Treat immediately after surface has cooled with glass ceramic cooktop cleaner. If this does not remove the marks, try a mild abrasive (Bon Ami®, Soft Scrub® without bleach) with a damp paper towel. Rinse and reapply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner. Failure to remove metal marks before the next heating makes removal very difficult.
Hard water spots:
Hot cooking liquids dripped on surface
Surface scratches:
Small scratches are common and do not affect cooking. They become smoother and less noticeable with daily use of the glass ceramic cooktop cleaner.
Minerals in some water can be transferred onto the sur­face and cause stains. Use undiluted white vinegar, rinse and dry. Recondition with glass ceramic cooktop cleaner. Remove boilovers and stains before using the cooktop again.
Apply glass ceramic cooktop cleaner before using to remove sand-like grains and grit such as salt and sea­soning. Scratches can be reduced by using pans with bases that are smooth, clean, and dry before use. Use recommended glass ceramic cooktop cleaner daily.
NOTICE: : Diamond rings may scratch the surface.
Maintenance
This appliance requires no maintenance other than daily cleaning. For best results, apply cooktop cleaning cream daily.

Notes
The cooktop regulates the heating element
temperature by turning the heat source on and off; this means that the reddish glow of the heat source beneath the heating element may not always be visible. If you select a low heat setting, the heat source is frequently off; at higher settings it is seldom off. The source turns on and off even at the highest settings.
You may hear a quiet hum when the heating elements
are in the heating phase. The heating elements may glow with different levels of brightness. Depending on the angle from which you are looking at the heating element, this glow may be visible over the marked edge of the heating element. These are technical characteristics. They have no effect on quality and function.
Glass ceramic may have uneven areas on the surface
due to the nature of the material itself. Because of the mirror-like finish on the cooking surface, even extremely small bubbles less than 1 mm in diameter may be visible. These bubbles will not have any adverse effect on the operation of the cooktop nor on the durability of the glass ceramic cooking surface.
Depending on the countertop that is present in the
kitchen, an uneven gap between the cooktop unit and the countertop can occur. For this reason, a flexible seal is provided around the entire cooktop unit.
The element is too hot and has turned off.
The touch control zone is too hot. Make sure that cookware is properly positioned on

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY

What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances in this Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Bosch NEM3064UC, NEM3664UC, NET5054UC, NET5654UC, NET8054UC, NET8654UC (“Product") sold to you, the first using purchaser, provided that the Product was purchased:
For your normal, household (non-commercial) use,
and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes.
New at retail (not a display, "as is", or previously
returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use.
Within the United States or Canada, and has at all
times remained within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply only to the first purchaser of the Product and are not transferable.
Bosch reserves the right to request proof of purchase at the time any warranty claim is submitted to confirm that the Product falls within the scope of this limited product warranty.
Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts
BSH warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the date of purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy
During this warranty period, BSH or one of its authorized service providers will repair your Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have been made without success, then BSH will replace your Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in BSH’s sole discretion, for an additional charge). All removed parts and components shall become the property of BSH at its sole option. All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity of the original part for purposes of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended with respect to such parts. BSH's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a BSH-authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and property damage concerns, BSH highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use an un-authorized servicer; BSH will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a non-authorized servicer. If you choose to have someone other than an authorized service provider
work on your Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL AUTOMATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID. Authorized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially trained on BSH products, and who possess, in BSH's opinion, a superior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are independent entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of BSH). Notwithstanding the foregoing, BSH will not incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you request, BSH would still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the service company, assuming they agree to make the service call.
Out of Warranty Product
BSH is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs, pro­rates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired.
Warranty Exclusions
The warranty coverage described herein excludes all defects or damage that are not the direct fault of BSH, including without limitation, one or more of the following:
Use of the Product in anything other than its normal,
customary and intended manner (including without limitation, any form of commercial use, use or storage of an indoor product outdoors, use of the Product in conjunction with air or water-going vessels).
Any party's willful misconduct, negligence, misuse,
abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure to maintain, improper or negligent installation, tampering, failure to follow operating instructions, mishandling, unauthorized service (including self­performed "fixing" or exploration of the appliance's internal workings).
Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind.A failure to comply with any applicable state, local,
city, or county electrical, plumbing and/or building codes, regulations, or laws, including failure to install the product in strict conformity with local fire and building codes and regulations.
