At the end of its working life, the product must be taken to a
special local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer
providing appliance recycling services.

Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible
negative consequences for the environment and health. It also
enables the constituent materials to be recovered, saving both
energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of
household appliances separately, the product is marked with a
crossed-out wheeled dustbin.

Please Note:

• Ceramic hobs become hot and remain hot during and

immediately after use. Do not touch the hob until it has
been allowed to cool.

• Keep children away from the appliance when in use.

• Never put cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic

surface when the hob is hot. These materials could melt
and cause damage to the hob.

• Never use the hob top for storage.

• Pan handles should never stand out beyond the edge of

the worktop. This will ensure children cannot reach them.

• Do not use pans with rough bases (e.g. cast iron) as these

may scratch the hob surface.

• Do not switch on the zones without cookware in place.

• Do not lean over the hob when it is in use.

• Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.

• Ensure the base of the saucepan is clean and dry before

placing it on the hob.

• After use, please ensure that all the zones have been

switched off.

• This hob (Class 3) has been designed for use only as a

cooking appliance. Any other use (e.g. heating rooms)
should be considered incorrect and therefore dangerous.

means of an external timer or separate remote-control
system.

Important Note

prevent risk of electric shock. Disconnect it from the power
supply.

Using the Touch Controls

The controls respond to touch, so you
don’t need to apply any pressure.

Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.

You will hear a beep each time a touch is
registered.

Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is
nothing (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of
water may make the controls difficult to operate.

To Switch Heating Zones On

When the mains power supply is switched on, the buzzer beeps
once and all the indicators light up for 1 second, then go out. This
indicates that the ceramic hob has entered standby mode.

(see “Efficient Use of Your Hob” section for selection of suitable
pans).

are clean and dry.

zone where the pan is placed (for example back ).

adjust up or down.

next one you want to use, then select the power level for that (as
above).

To Switch Heating Zones Off

8

zone you wish to switch off (for example back ).

down to “ 0 “.

To switch all heating zones off at once it is only necessary to
touch the ON/OFF control.

adjacent to that zone’s corresponding
selection control will show “H”

The hot hob warning indicators remain lit
(even when the hob is switched off to

standby mode) until the cooking zones cool sufficiently to touch.

Do not touch the glass plate until the indicator goes out.

children accidentally turning the cooking zones on).
