Overview

You will find the most frequently caused damage in the following table:

]

Causes of damage

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.

– Hard or pointed objects dropped on the hob may

damage it.

– Aluminium foil and plastic containers will melt if

placed on the hotplate while it is hot. The use of laminated sheeting is not recommended on the hob.

Damage Cause Measure

Stains Boiled over food. Remove boiled over food immediately with a glass scraper.

Unsuitable cleaning agent. Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for this type of hob.

Scratches Salt, sugar and sand. Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage space.

Cookware with rough bases scratch the hob. Check the cookware.

Discolouration Unsuitable cleaning agent. Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for this type of hob.

Pan abrasion. Lift pots and pans when moving them.

Chips Sugar, food with a high sugar content. Remove boiled over food immediately with a glass scraper.

Environmental protection

Environmental protecti on

In this section, you can find information about saving

energy and disposing of the appliance.

Energy-saving advice

▯ Always use the correct lid for each pan. Cooking

without a lid uses a lot more energy. Use a glass lid to provide visibility and avoid having to lift the lid.

▯ Use pans with flat bases. Bases that are not flat use

a lot more energy.

▯ The diameter of the pan base must match the size

of the hotplate. Please note: pan manufacturers usually provide the diameter for the top of the pan, which is usually larger than the diameter of the pan base.

▯ Use a small pan for small amounts of food. A large

pan which is not full uses a lot of energy.

▯ Use little water when cooking. This saves energy

and preserves all the vitamins and minerals in vegetables.

▯ Select the lowest power level to maintain cooking. If

the power level is too high, energy is wasted.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

Environmental protection

Induction cooking

Advantages of induction cooking

Induction cooking is very different from traditional cooking methods, as heat builds up directly in the item of cookware. This offers numerous advantages:

▯ Saves time when boiling and frying.

▯ Saves energy.

▯ Easier to care for and clean. Spilled food does not

burn on as quickly.

▯ Heat control and safety – the hob increases or

decreases the heat supply as soon as the user changes the setting. The induction hotplate stops the heat supply as soon as the cookware is removed from the hotplate, without having to switch it off first.

Cookware

Only use ferromagnetic cookware for induction cooking, such as:

▯ Cookware made from enamelled steel

▯ Cookware made from cast iron

▯ Special induction-compatible cookware made from

stainless steel.

To check whether your cookware is suitable for induction cooking, refer to the section on ~ "Cookware check".

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

To achieve a good cooking result, the ferromagnetic area on the base of the pan should match the size of the hotplate. If a hotplate does not detect the cookware, try placing the cookware on another hotplate with a smaller diameter.

FP

FP

FP

If the only hotplate being used is the flexible cooking zone, larger cookware that is particularly suited to this zone can be used. You can read more information on the positioning of the cookware here ~ "Flex function"

Page 8

en Induction cooking

Some induction cookware does not have a fully ferromagnetic base:

▯ If the base of the cookware is only partially

ferromagnetic, only the area that is ferromagnetic will heat up. This may mean that heat will not be distributed evenly. The non-ferromagnetic area may not heat up to a sufficient temperature for cooking.

▯ The ferromagnetic area will also be reduced if the

material from which the base of the cookware is made contains aluminium, for example. This may mean that the cookware will not become sufficiently hot or even that it will not be detected.

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.

Empty pans or those with a thin base

Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base. The hob is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach very high temperatures. The base of the pan could melt and damage the glass on the hob. In this case, do not touch the pan and switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.

Pan detection

Each hotplate has a lower limit for pan detection. This depends on the diameter of the ferromagnetic area of the cookware and the material from which its base is made. For this reason, you should always use the hotplate that best matches the diameter of the base of the pan.

Unsuitable pans

Never use diffuser hobs or pans made from:

▯ common thin steel

▯ glass

▯ earthenware

▯ copper

▯ aluminium

Properties of the base of the cookware

The material(s) from which the base of the cookware is made can affect the cooking result. Using pots and pans made from materials that distribute heat evenly through them, such as stainless-steel pans with a three-layer base, saves time and energy.

Use cookware with a flat base; if the base of the cookware is uneven, this may impair the heat supply.

twist knob to select the hotplates and heat settings.

The twist knob is magnetic and is placed in the middle of the area marked on the twistpad. To activate a hotplate, press the twist knob so that it tilts in the appropriate area for the required hotplate. Turning the twist knob selects the heat setting.

Position the twist knob on the twist pad so that it is in the centre of the indicators which delimit the twist pad area.

Note: Even if the twist knob is not entirely central, this will not affect how the twist knob works.

Removing the twist knob

Removing the twist knob activates the wipe protection function.

The twist knob can be removed during cooking. The wipe protection function is activated for 10 minutes. If the twist knob is not returned to its position before this time elapses, the hob will switch off.

m Warning – Risk of fire!

If a metallic object is placed in the twist pad area during these 10 minutes, the hob may continue to heat up. For this reason, always switch off the hob using the main switch.

Storing the twist knob

A strong magnet is located inside of the twist knob. Keep the twist knob away from magnetic data carriers such as credit cards and cards with magnetic strips. Otherwise, these data carriers may be damaged beyond repair.

The magnet may also cause faults on televisions and screens.

Note: The twist knob is magnetic. Metal particles stuck to the bottom may scratch the surface of the hob. Always clean the twist knob thoroughly.

en Flex function

Flex function

The flexible cooking zone can be used as a single hotplate or as two independent hotplates, as required.

It consists of four inductors that work independently of each other. If the flex function is in use, only the area that is covered by cookware is activated.

Advice on using cookware

To ensure that the cookware is detected and heat is distributed evenly, correctly centre the cookware:

As a single hotplate

Diameter smaller than or equal to 13 cm Place the cookware on one of the four positions that can be seen in the illustration.

Recommendations for use

▯ Always use cookware that has not been pre-heated.

▯ Use pots and pans with a flat base. Do not use

cookware with a thin base.

▯ Never leave empty cookware, oil, butter or lard to

heat up unattended.

▯ Do not place a lid on the cookware.

▯ Place the cookware on the centre of the hotplate.

Ensure that the diameter of the base of the cookware corresponds to the size of the hotplate.

▯ You can find information on the type, size and

positioning of the cookware in section

Frying sensor function

When the frying sensor function is active, the pan

temperature is controlled via temperature settings. The appropriate temperature is maintained throughout the frying process.

This function is available for the flexible cooking zone on the right.

Advantages when frying

▯ The hotplate only heats up if this is required to

maintain the temperature. This saves energy and prevents the oil or fat from overheating.

▯ The frying function reports when the empty frying

pan has reached the optimum temperature for adding oil and then for adding the food.

Notes

– Do not place a lid on the pan. Otherwise, the

function does not activate correctly. You can use a splash guard to prevent splashes of grease.

– Use suitable oil or fat for frying. If butter, margarine,

extra virgin olive oil or lard is used, set heat setting 1 or 2.

– Never leave a frying pan, with or without food,

unattended when it is being heated.

– If the hotplate is a higher temperature than the

cookware or vice versa, the frying sensor will not be activated correctly.

Suitable cookware

Select the hotplate with the diameter that most closely matches that of the base of the cookware and place the cookware in the centre of this hotplate.

Special frying pans are available for this function. They can be purchased from specialist retailers or through our technical after-sales service. Always quote the relevant reference number:

▯ GP900001 small vessel (15 cm diameter)

▯ GP900002 medium vessel (18 cm diameter)

▯ GP900003 large vessel (21 cm diameter)

These frying pans have a non-stick coating so that you can fry food with only a small amount of oil.

Notes

– The frying sensor function has been configured

specifically for this type and size of pan.

– Using a frying pan of a different size or one that is

poorly positioned on the flexible cooking zones may result in the frying sensor function not being activated. See the section entitled ~ "Flex

function"

Cookware check

This function can be used to check the speed and quality of the cooking process depending on the cookware.

The result is a reference value and depends on the properties of the cookware and the hotplate being used.

1 With the cookware still cold, fill it with approx.

200 ml of water and place it on the centre of the hotplate with the diameter that most closely matches that of the base of the cookware.

2 Go to the basic settings and select 3 Touch the control panel. A will flash on the hotplate

display. The function has now been activated.

After 20 seconds, the result for the quality and speed of the cooking process will appear in the hotplate display.

Notes

– The flexible cooking zone only counts as a single

hotplate; place no more than one item of cookware on it.

– If the diameter of the hotplate used is much smaller

than the diameter of the cookware, only the middle of the cookware can be expected to heat up. This may result in the cooking results not being as good as expected or being less than satisfactory.
