Operating Instructions

1 Safety

The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, as manufacturers we also believe it is our responsibility to familiarise you with the following safety instructions.

Electrical Safety

• The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be carried out by qualified personnel.

• Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved service engineers. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your local customer centre or your dealer.

Please follow these instructions, otherwise the warranty is void in the

event of damages.

• Flush-mounted appliances may only be operated following installation in suitable installation cabinets and workplaces which conform to the relevant standards. This ensures sufficient protection against contact for electrical units as required by the VDE [Association of German Electrical Engineers].

• If your appliance malfunctions or if fractures, cracks or splits appear: – switch off all cooking zones, – disconnect the hob from the electricity supply.

Child Safety

The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always keep small children away from the appliance.

Page 6

Operating Instructions

Safety During Use

• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.

• Do not use the hob to heat the room.

• Take care when plugging electric appliances into mains sockets near

the hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot surface.

• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).

• Switch off the cooking zones after use.

Safety When Cleaning

• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high pressure cleaner.

• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual.

Page 7

Operating Instructions

To Avoid damaging your appliance

• Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.

• Do not operate the cooking zones when there is no pan or the pans

are empty.

• Glass ceramic is insensitve to temperature shock and very robust; however it is not unbreakable. Especially sharp and hard objects that fall on the cooking surface can damage it.

• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burr ed or da maged base. Scratching may occur if the pans are slid across the surface.

• Do not place any pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage to the paint may occur.

• Make sure that no acidic liquids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or descaling agents, are spilt onto the hob frame, since these cause dull spots.

• If sugar or a preparation with sugar comes into contact with the hot cooking zone and melts there it must be cleaned off immediately with a scraper while it is still hot. If it cools, the surface may be damaged when it is removed.

• Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the ceramic glass surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If something of this nature should melt onto the ceramic glass surface, it must also be removed immediately using the scraper.

Operating Instructions

The Key Features of Your ApplianceFeatures of Your Appliance

• Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic glass cooking surface and 4 rapid response cooking zones. The particularly powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the amount of time taken for the zones to heat up.

• Sensor fields: Your appliance is operated using TOUCH CONTROL sensor fields.

• Cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and the sensor fields is their accessibility for cleaning. The smooth, flat surface is easy to clean (see section: “Cleaning and Care”).

• On/Off sensor field: The “On/Off” sensor field provides the appliance with a separate mains switch. Touching this switches the power supply on or off completely.

• Stop+Go sensor field: Touching this sensor field changes all cooking zones currently in use to the ”keep warm“ function: touching the field again restores the zones to their former settings. This function can be useful in certain situations, for example if you are suddenly called away from the cooker.

• Displays: Digital displays show information about selected heat set- tings, functions activated and any possible residual heat in the appropriate cooking zone.

• Safety cut-out: A safety cut-out ensures that all cooking zones switch off automatically after a period of time if the setting has not been changed.

• Keep Warm:

• Residual heat indicator: An h for residual heat is shown in the dis-

play if the cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burning.

• Multipurpose cooking zone: The hob is equipped with a multipur- pose/casserole cooking zone. Depending on the setting, it can be used as a round or oval cooking zone, e.g. for oval casseroles or for keeping dishes or food warm.

• Triple ring cooking zone: The hob features a triple-ring cooking zone. This zone can be set to different sizes, for example to fit smaller pots. This will save power.

• Timer: All rings can be automatically switched off using the inte- grated timer. When the end of the cooking time has been reached, the cooking zone switches off.

V this setting is used for keeping food warm.

Even after the cooking zone has been switched off, the residual heat indicator only goes out when the cooking zone is cold.

You can use the residual heat for melting and keeping food warm.

Important! As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there

is a risk of burns. Important! If the power supply is interrupted the h symbol will also

go out and information about residual heat will no longer be available. However, it is still possible to burn yourself. This can be avoided by being particularly attentive.

Page 22

Operating Instructions

Cooking with the Automatic Warm up Function

All four of the hob's cooking zones can be controlled in nine stages and have an automatic warm up function:

– !, lowest heat setting – ), highest heat setting – a, automatic warm up function

When you select the required heat setting using the + sensor field, the cooking zone will work for a specific time on full power and then switch automatically to the set heat setting. The duration of the automatic warm up function depends on the heat setting selected.

Select the required cooking zone with the cooking zone sensor fields.

Touch sensor field + until it reaches the required heat ! to (. The set heat setting will be displayed first. After five seconds a (= automatic warm up function) will replace the heat setting in the display . At the end of the warm up time the heat setting will be shown again.

Page 23

Operating Instructions

If during the automatic warm up function you select a higher setting,

eg. from # to %, the warm up time is adjusted to match. If you select a lower setting, the warm up time ends at once.

If you start cooking again on a cooking zone that is still warm, the au-

tomatic warm up function uses the residual heat. This saves time and energy.

If you again wish to switch on a cooking zone on which hot items are

already standing, you should always select the required heat setting with the - sensor field. In this way you can avoid making the food boil over as a result of the extra burs t of heat from the automatic warm up.

Uses, Tables and Tips

Pans

The better the pan, the better the results.

• You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as

thick and flat as possible.

• Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of

the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.

• Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring

on the ceramic glass surface, which is very difficult or impossible to remove.

• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burr ed or da maged

base. This can produce permanent scratching if the pan is slid across the surface.

• When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly

inwards (concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex).

• If you wish to use special types of pan (e.g. a pres-

sure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.), please observe the manufacturer's instructions.

Energy saving tips

You can save valuable energy by observing the following points:

• Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone.

• Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power

consumption.

• Whenever possible always position the lids firmly

on pots and pans to cover completely.

• Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the

cooking time to use the residual heat such as to keep foods warm or for melting.

• The base of the pan should be the

same size as the cooking zone.

• Using a pressure cooker reduces

cooking times by up to 50%.

Page 27

Operating Instructions

Advice on Cooking with and without Automatic Warm up

The automatic warm up function is suitable for:

• dishes that start off cold, are heated up at high power and do not

need to be continually watched when cooking on the selected heat setting,

• dishes that are put in a hot frying pan.

The automatic warm up function is not suitable for:

• goulash, beef olives and similar braised dishes that need continual

turning until browned correctly, have liquid added and are then braised until cooked,

• dumplings, pasta dishes with large amounts of liquid,

• cooking with pressure cookers,

• very large quantities of soup/stew with more than 2 litres of liquid.

General notes:

• When cooking without the automatic warm up function, we recom-

mend the use of a high heat setting to warm up the food (using the

- button) and then leave the dish to finish cooking at an appropriate lower heat setting.

• You can use the ! heat setting for keeping food warm.

• Take special note of the results when you first use the appliance! You

can then decide which heat setting is the best for "your dishes" in the "quantities you are accustomed to preparing" with "your pans". You will then quickly appreciate the advantages of the automatic function and will feel relaxed about using your new hob.

Operating Instructions

Cleaning and Care

Hob

Important: Cleaning agents must not come into contact with the hot

ceramic glass surface! All cleaning agents must be removed with plenty of clean water after cleaning because they can have a caustic effect when the rings are next heated! Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven sprays, coarse scourers or abrasive pan cleaners.

Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is warm to the

touch or cold. This will avoid spillages becoming burnt on.

Remove scale and water marks, fat spots and discolouration with a metallic shimmer using a commercially available ceramic glass or

stainless steel cleaner such as “Hob Brite”.

Light Soiling

1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and a little washing

up liquid.

2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. Remnants of cleaner must not be

left on the surface.

3. Thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass cooking surface once a week

with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner.

4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface using plenty of clean water and rub dry with a clean fluff-free cloth.

Stubborn Soiling

1. T o remove food that has boiled over

or stubborn splashes, use a glass scraper.

2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface.

3. Remove soiling by sliding the blade. You can obtain glass scrapers and

ceramic glass cleaners from specialist retailers.

Page 30

Operating Instructions

1 Problem Dirt

1. Remove burnt-on sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other meltable materials with a glass scraper imme-

diately and while still hot. Important: There is a risk of burning

yourself when the glass scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!

2. Then clean the hob normally when it has cooled down.

If the cooking zone on which

something has melted has already cooled down, warm it up again for cleaning. Scratches or dark marks on the glass ceramic surface, caused for example by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot be removed. However, they do not impair the function of the hob.

Hob Frame

Important! Do not put vinegar, lemon-juice or scale removers on the

hob frame, otherwise dull spots will appear.

1. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid.

2. Soften dried dirt with a wet cloth. Then wipe off and rub dry.

1 Safety Instructions for the Installer

• A device must be provided in the electrical installation which allows

the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm. Suitable isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses are to be removed from the holder), earth leakage trips and contactors.

• In respect of fire protection, this appliance corresponds to type Y (EN

60 335-2-6). Only this type of appliance may be installed with a high cupboard or wall on one side.

• Drawers may not be fitted underneath the hob.

• The installation must guarantee shock protection.

• The kitchen unit in which the appliance is fitted must satisfy the sta-

bility requirements of DIN 68930.

• For protection against moisture, all cut surfaces are to be sealed with

a suitable sealant.

• On tiled work surfaces, the joints in the area where the hob sits must

be completely filled with grout.

• On natural, artificial stone, or ceramic tops, the snap action springs

must be bonded in place with a suitable artificial resin or mixed adhesive.

• Ensure that the seal is correctly seated in the frame and that it is

seated against the work surface without leaving any gaps. Additional silicon sealant must not be applied; this will make removal more difficult when servicing.

• The hob must be pressed out from below when removed.

Electrical Connection

Before connecting, check that the nominal voltage of the appliance, that is the voltage stated on the rating plate, corresponds to the available supply voltage. The rating plate is located on the lower casing of the hob. The heating element voltage is AC230 V ~. The appliance also works perfectly on older networks with AC220 V ~. The hob is to be connected to the mains using a device that allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm, eg. automatic line protecting cutout,earth leakage tripsorfuse. A type H05VV-F cable or one with a higher grade must be used as the mains connecting cable. The connection must be carried out as shown in the diagram. The connecting links should be fitted according to the appropriate connection diagram. The earth lead is connected to terminal x. The earth lead must be longer than leads carrying electric current.

The cable connections must be made in accordance with regulations and the terminal screws tightened securely.

Finally, the connecting cable is to be secured with the mains cable cleat and the covering closed by pressing firmly (lock into place). Before switching on for the first time, any protective foil or stickers must be removed from the glass ceramic surface.

Once connected to the mains supply check that all cooking zones are

ready for use by briefly switching each on in turn at the maximum setting.
