Electromagnetic hazards!
This appliance complies with safety
and electromagnetic compatibility
standards. However, people with
pacemakers or insulin pumps must
refrain from using this appliance. It
is impossible to ensure that all of

types of devices, such as a hearing
discomfort.
Malfunction risk!
The hob is equipped with a fan in
the lower section. If there is a
drawer under the hob it should not
be used to store small objects or
paper, since they could damage
the fan or interfere with the cooling
if they are sucked into it.
There should be a minimum of
2 cm between the contents of the
drawer and fan intake.
Risk of injury!
■
When cooking in a bain marie, the
hob and cooking container could
shatter due to overheating. The
cooking container in the bain
marie must not directly touch the
bottom of the water-filled pot. Only
use heat-resistant cookware.
Risk of injury!
■
Saucepans may suddenly jump
due to liquid between the pan
base and the hotplate. Always
keep the hotplate and saucepan
bases dry.
Elements that may damage the appliance
Caution!
■ Rough pan bases may scratch the hob.
■ Avoid leaving empty pots and pans on the hotplate. Doing so
may cause damage.
■ Do not place hot pans on the control panel, the indicator
area, or the hob frame. Doing so may cause damage.

Induction cooking
Advantages of induction cooking
Induction cooking represents a radical change from the
traditional method of heating; the heat is generated directly in
the pan. It therefore offers a number of advantages:
■ Time savings for cooking and frying; since the pan is heated
directly.
■ Energy is saved.
■ Care and cleaning are simpler. Foods that have spilt do not
burn as quickly.
■ Heat and safety control; the hob supplies or cuts off power
immediately when the control knob is turned on. The
induction hotplate stops supplying heat if the pan is removed
without having previously switched it off.
Suitable pans
Ferromagnetic pans
Only ferromagnetic pans are suitable for induction cooking,
these may be made from:
■ enamelled steel
■ cast iron
■ special cutlery for stainless steel induction pan
To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if a
magnet will stick to it.
Energy-saving advice
■ Always place the correct 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.
■ The diameter of the pan base must match the size of the
hotplate. 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 their vitamins and minerals.
■ Select a lower power level.
Other suitable cookware for induction
There are other types of cookware especially made for
induction whose base is not entirely ferromagnetic.
When using large cookware on a
smaller ferromagnetic zone, only
the ferromagnetic zone heats up,
so heat might not be uniformly
distributed.
Cookware with aluminium on the
base reduce the ferromagnetic
zone, so less heat may be supplied or be difficult to detect.
For good cooking results, the
diameter of the cookware's ferromagnetic area should match the
size of the hotplate. If cookware
is not detected on a hotplate, try
it on the next smaller hotplate
down.
Unsuitable pans
Never use pans made from:
■ common thin steel
■ glass
■ earthenware
■ copper
■ aluminium
Characteristics of the pan base
The characteristics of the pan base may affect the uniformity of
the cooking results. Pans made from materials which help
diffuse heat, such as stainless steel sandwich pans, distribute
heat uniformly, saving time and energy.
Absence of pan or unsuitable size
If no pan is placed on the selected hotplate, or if it is made of
unsuitable material or is not the correct size, the power level
displayed on the hotplate indicator will flash. Place a suitable
pan on the hotplate to stop the flashing. If this takes more than
90 seconds, the hotplate will switch off automatically.
