Thinking ecologically means acting ecologically…
The safety aspects of this appliance comply with
the accepted technical standards and the
German Appliance Safety Law. However, as the
manufacturer we also believe it is our
responsibility to familiarise you with the following
safety instructions.
Electrical safety
• Installation and connection of this new
appliance must only be carried out by a
qualified personnel.
• Repairs to the appliance are only to be
carried out by qualified personnel. Repairs
carried out by inexperienced persons may
cause an injury or serious malfunction. If your
appliances needs repairing, please contact
your local Service Force Centre.
Please follow these instructions
carefully, otherwise the guarantee will
not cover any damage that may occur.
• Flush-mounted appliances shall only be
operated following installation in suitable
installation cabinets and workplaces
complying with applicable standards. This
ensures adequate 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.
Safety for children
• When you are cooking or frying, the cooking
zones get hot. Keep small children away from
the appliance at all times. Keep older children
under supervision when they are using the
appliance.
• This appliance incorporates a locking device
which can be switched on so that playing
children cannot inadvertently switch the
appliance on.
Safety during use
• This appliance may only be used for cooking
and frying of foods in the home. It is not
designed for commercial or industrial
purposes.
• Never use the hob to heat the room.
• Be careful when plugging in electrical
appliances into main sockets near the
appliance. Connecting leads must not come
into contact with any hot parts of the
appliance.
• 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.
• The sensor technology offers you the
maximum possible safety when using the
appliance. However, it also requires care
when setting the cooking zones, power and
times.
Safety when cleaning
• Switch off the appliance always before
cleaning.
• For reasons of safety, never use a steam jet
or a high pressure cleaner to clean the hob.

How to prevent damage to the
appliance
• Never use the hob as a work surface or for
storage.
• The frameless edge of the ceramic glass
surface is susceptible to knocks. Be careful
when moving pots and pans around.
• Do not operate the cooking zones with empty
pots or pans, or with no pots and pans on
them. The cooking utensils as well as the hob
surface could suffer damage as a result.
• Ceramic glass is insensitive to temperature
shocks and is very robust, however it is not
unbreakable. Especially sharp and hard
objects that fall on the cooking surface could
damage it.
• Do not use cast iron pots or pans with
damaged bases with rough edges or burrs.
Sliding these across the hob could cause
scratches.
• Do not place any pots or pans on the frame of
the cooking area. Scratches and damage to
the varnished surface could occur.
• Always make sure that no acid-containing
liquids such as vinegar, lemon or limedissolving agents are split on the hob frame
as these can cause dull spots to appear.
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugarfalls
onto the cooking zone and melts, remove
immediately while still hot, using a suitable
kitchen scraper. If left to cool down, it may
damage the surface when removed.
• Keep objects, liable to melt, away from the
ceramic glass surface, for example, synthetic
materials, aluminium foils or cooking wraps. If
any other materials or foodstuffs melt on the
ceramic glass surface, these should be
cleaned away immediately using a suitable
kitchen scraper.
Disposal
Disposing of the packaging
material
All packing materials used can be recycled.
The plastic materials are identified as follows:
• >PE< for polyethylene, e.g. for the outer
wrapping and the bags inside.
• >PS< for foamed polystyrene, e.g., for
cushioning parts, in principle CFC-free.
The materials must be disposed of properly.
Please observe the national and regional
regulations for the disposal of packaging material
and the material designation (material
separation, recycling, waste collection).
Disposing of old appliances
Warning! Before disposing of old
appliances, make them inoperable so
that they are not a danger to others.
Separate the appliance from the
mains supply. Remove the mains
lead.
For ecological reasons, all old appliances must
be disposed of in compliance with applicable
regulations.
• The appliance must not be disposed of with
the normal domestic waste.
• Contact your local council or Environmental
Health Office for information regarding the
safe disposal of the appliance.

The key features 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 substantially 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. It is easy to
clean the flat smooth surface.
• „ON/OFF“ Sensor field: With the „ON/OFF“
sensor field the appliance has a separate
mains switch with which the power supply to
the appliance can be completely switched on
and off with one touch.
• Displays: Digital displays and/or control
lamps inform the user about heat settings,
selected functions as well as any possible
residual heat of the corresponding cooking
zone.
• Safety cut-out: A safety cut-out ensures that
all cooking zones shut off automatically after
a period of time if the settings have not been
changed.
• Timer: With the integrated timer, all zones
can be switched off automatically. When the
end of the cooking time has been reached,
the cooking zone switches off.
• Child safety: With this function the
cooking area can be locked to prevent any
unintentional switching on of the appliance.
• Keep warm stage: is the cooking stage
where foods can be kept warm.
• Residual heat display: will illuminate if
the cooking zone becomes hot enough for
there to be a risk of burning.
• Casserole cooking zone (multi-purposecooking zone): The cooking area is
equipped with a casserole cooking zone
(multi-purpose cooking zone). Depending on
the setting, it can be used as a round or oval
cooking zone, e.g., for casseroles or for
keeping dishes and/or food warm.
• Triple ring cooking zone: The cooking area
has a triple ring cooking zone. With this, your
appliance has a cooking zone with variable
size, e.g., for smaller pots. This saves
energy.

Digital displays
The four display fields allocated to the four cooking
zones show:
• after switching on
• on selection of the keep warm setting
• to , depending on the selected heat
setting
• for cooking automatic
• for residual heat
• when child safety is switched on
• upon malfunction /overheating
Safety cut-out of the cooking zones
If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after
a certain time, or if the heat setting is not changed,
the corresponding cooking zone switches itself off
automatically.
Existing residual heat is indicated with (as „hot“)
in the digital displays of the corresponding cooking
zones.
The cooking zones switch off at:
• heat setting , , after 6 hours
• heat setting , after 5 hours
• heat setting after 4 hours
• heat setting , , , after 1.5 hours
Should one or several cooking zones
switch off before expiration of the times
indicated, refer to the Chapter “What to
do, if…”
Switching off for other causes
Liquid boiling over onto the control panel causes
all cooking zones to switch off immediately.
The same effect occurs if you place a wet cloth
onto the control panel. In both cases, the appliance
must be switched on with the main switch after
the liquid or the wet cloth have been removed.
