5 This appliance conforms with the following EU Directives:
– 73/23/EEC dated 19.02.1973 Low Voltage Directive – 89/336/EEC dated 03.05.1989 EMC Directive inclusive of Amending Di-
rective 92/31/EEC
– 93/68/EEC dated 22.07.1993 CE Marking Directive
Correct use
• This appliance should be used only for normal domestic cooking and fry­ing of food.
• The appliance must not be used as a work surface or as a storage sur­face.
• Additions or modifications to the appliance are not permitted.
• Do not place or store flammable liquids, highly inflammable materials or
fusible objects (e.g. plastic film, plastic, aluminium) on or near the appli­ance.
Child safety
• Small children must be kept away from the appliance.
• Only let bigger children work on the appliance under supervision.
• To avoid small children and pets unintentionally switching the appliance
on, we recommend activation of the child safety device.
General safety
• The appliance may only be installed and connected by trained, registered service engineers, or competent persons.
• Built-in appliances may only be used after they have been built in to suita­ble built-in units and work surfaces that meet standards.
• In the event of faults with the appliance or damage to the glass ceramic (cracks, scratches or splits), the appliance must be switched off and dis­connected from the electrical supply to prevent the possibility of an elec­tric shock.
• Repairs to the appliance must only be carried out by trained registered service engineers.

Page 5
Safety during use
• Remove stickers and film from the glass ceramic.
• There is the risk of burns from the appliance if used carelessly.
• Cables from electrical appliances must not touch the hot surface of the
appliance or hot cookware.
• Overheated fat and oil can ignite quickly. When cooking with fat or oil (e.g. frying chips) do not leave the appliance unattended.
• Switch the cooking zones off after each use.
• Users with implanted pacemakers should keep their upper body at least
30 cm from induction cooking zones that are switched on.
• Risk of burns! Do not place objects made of metal, such as knives, forks, spoons and saucepan lids on the cooking surface, as they can get hot.
Safety when cleaning
• For cleaning, the appliance must be switched off and cooled down.
• For safety reasons, the cleaning of the appliance with steam jet or high-
pressure cleaning equipment is not permitted.
How to avoid damage to the appliance
• The ceramic glass can be damaged by objects falling onto it.
• The edge of the ceramic glass can be damaged by being knocked by the
cookware.
• Cookware made of cast iron, cast aluminium or with damaged bottoms can scratch the ceramic glass if pushed across the surface.
• Objects that melt and things that boil over can burn onto the ceramic glass and should be removed straightaway.
• Do not use the cooking zones with empty cookware or without cookware.
• To avoid damaging cookware and glass ceramics, do not allow saucepans
or frying pans to boil dry.
• The ventilation gap of 5mm between the worktop and front of the unit un­derneath it must not be covered.

Residual heat indicator
1 Warning! Risk of burns from residual heat. After being switched off, the
cooking zones need some time to cool down. Look at the residual heat indi­cator
.
3 Residual heat can be used for melting and keeping food warm.
The induction cooking zones create the heat required for cooking directly in the base of the cookware. The glass ceramic is merely heated by the re­sidual heat of the cookware. The cooling fan switches itself on and off depending upon the temperature of the electronics.

Switching the power function on and off
The power function makes additional power available to the front induc­tion cooking zones, e.g. to bring a large volume of water to the boil. The power function is activated for 8 minutes for the front left cooking zone and for 5 minutes for the front right cooking zone. After these times, the in­duction cooking zones automatically return to cooking level .

Power Management
The cooking zones have a maximum power available to them. If this power range is exceeded by switching on the power function, Power Management reduces the heat setting of another cooking zone. The indicator for this cooking zone changes between the heat setting set and maximum possible heat setting for one minute. Thereafter the actual heat setting is displayed.

Tips on cooking and frying
3 Information about acrylamides
According to the latest scientific research, intensive browning of food, espe­cially in products containing starch, may present a health risk due to acryla­mide. Therefore we recommend cooking at low temperatures and not browning foods too much.

3 Cookware for induction cooking zones is labelled as suitable by the manu-
facturer.
Suitability test
Cookware is suitable for induction cooking, if …
• ... a little water on an induction cooking zone set to heat setting 9 is heat­ed within a short time.
• ... a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware.
3 Certain cookware can make noises when being used on induction cooking
zones. These noises are not a fault in the appliance and do not affect opera­tion in any way.
Bottom of the cookware
The bottom of the cookware should be as thick and flat as possible.
Pan size
Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the size of the bottom of the cookware up to a certain limit. However the magnetic part of the bottom of the cookware must have a minimum diameter depending upon the size of the cooking zone.
Diameter of cooking zone

210 180
180 145
145 120
Minimum diameter of dish base

Installation Instructions
Safety instructions
The laws, ordinances, directives and standards in force in the country of use are to be followed (safety regulations, proper recycling in accordance with the regulations, etc.) Installation may only be carried out by a qualified electrician. The minimum distances to other appliances and units are to be observed. Anti-shock protection must be provided by the installation, for example drawers may only be installed with a protective floor directly underneath the appliance. The cut surfaces of the worktop are to be protected against moisture using a suitable sealant. The sealant seals the appliance to the work top with no gap. When building in, protect the underside of the appliance from steam and moisture, e.g. from a dishwasher or oven. Avoid installing the appliance next to doors and under windows. Otherwise hot cookware may be knocked off the rings when doors and windows are opened.
1 WARNING!
Risk of injury from electrical current.
• The electrical mains terminal is live.
• Observe connection schematic.
• Observe electrical safety rules.
• Ensure anti-shock protection through correct installation by a qualified
electrician.
• The appliance must be connected to the electrical supply by a qualified electrician.
1 IMPORTANT!
Risk of injury from electrical current. Loose and inappropriate plug and socket connections can make the termi­nal overheat.
• Have the clamping joints correctly installed by a qualified electrician.
• Use strain relief clamp on cable.
• In the event of single-phase or two-phase connection, the appropriate
mains cable of type H05BB-F Tmax 90° (or higher) must be used.
• If this appliance’s mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a spe­cial cable (type H05BB-F Tmax 90°; or higher). The latter is available from the Customer Care Department.
23
Page 24
• This appliance’s mains cable is fixed directly to the board. If the mains ca­ble is damaged, it must only be replaced by a qualified ecletrician or our Customer Care Department.
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.
Sticking on the seal
• Clean the worktop in the area of the cut-out section.
• Stick the one-sided self-adhesive sealing tape supplied all the way round
the lower edge of the cooking surface along the outer edge of the glass ceramic panel. Do not stretch it. The cut ends should lie in the middle of one side. When you have cut it to length (add a few mm), press the two ends flush up against one another.
