9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Fire Safety
Save these instructions.
Set the burner control so that the flame does not
extend beyond the bottom of the pan.
Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to
come in contact with a hot surface element, burner or
grate. Do not allow pans to boil dry.
If the cooktop is near a window, forced air vent or fan,
be certain that flammable materials such as window
coverings do not blow over or near the burners or
elements. They could catch on fire.
Always have a working smoke detector near the
kitchen.
Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may
ignite.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:
a) Never leave surface units unattended at high
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low
or medium settings.
b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat
or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires
with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
Take care that drafts like those from fans or forced air
vents do not push the flames so that they extend
beyond the edges of the pan.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available,
nearby, highly visible and easily accessible near the
appliance.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN
THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid,
cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the
burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If
the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE
AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be
burned.
c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths
or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d) Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
‒ You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher,
and you already know how to operate it.
‒ The fire is small and contained in the area
where it started.
‒ The fire department is being called.
‒ You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation
system during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach
through fire to turn it off.
Gas Safety
To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block
appliance air vents.
Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off
valve is located.
For proper burner performance, keep igniters clean
and dry.
If a burner goes out and gas escapes, open windows
and doors. Wait until gas dissipates before using the
appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: Burning gas cooking
fuel generates some by-products which are on the list
of substances which are known by the State of
California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure to these substances, always
operate this unit according to the instructions
contained in this booklet and provide good ventilation.
6
9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
All igniters spark when any single burner is turned on.
Do not touch any of the burners when the cooktop is
in use.
If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper
job of checking for leaks. If the connections are not
perfectly tight, you can have a small leak and,
therefore, a faint smell. Finding a gas leak is not a “doit-yourself” procedure. Some leaks can only be found
with the burner control in the ON position and this
must be done by a qualified service technician. See
Warning, page 1.
WARNING
To prevent flare-ups all grates must be properly
positioned on the cooktop whenever the cooktop is in
use. Each of the feet must be placed into the
corresponding dimples in the cooktop. Do not use a
grate if the rubber feet are missing or damaged.
Keep the ignitor ports clean for proper lighting
performance of the burners. It is necessary to clean
these when there is a boilover or when the burner
does not light even thought the electronic ignitors
click.
WARNING
To prevent flare-ups do not use the cooktop without all
burner caps and all burner grates properly positioned.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the
oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire
hazard.
Burn Prevention
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS - Surface units may be hot even though they are
dark in color. Areas near surface units may become
hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do
not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other
flammable materials contact surface units or areas
near units until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Among these areas are the cooktop and areas facing
the cooktop.
Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst and
cause injury.
Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when flambeing food (i.e. Crêpes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe).
Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when
necessary. To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil
slowly on no more than a low-medium setting. Hot oil
is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
WARNING
Do not clean or touch any of the burners when an
extra low burner (if equipped) is in use. When the
extra low burner automatically reignites the ignitor at
the burner will spark.
WARNING
Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual. NEVER use this appliance
as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so
may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and
overheating the appliance. Never use the appliance
for storage.
Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat
fryer. Wait until it is cool.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie
long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not
wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such
as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the
appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents
or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in
safe practices by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang
on any part of an appliance, especially a door,
warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage
the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially
causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless
closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets
should not be left alone or unattended in the area
where the appliance is in use. They should never be
allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the
appliance is in use.
CAUTION
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an
appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the
backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to
reach items could be seriously injured.
WARNING
The burning of gas cooking fuel can create small
amounts of Carbon Monoxide, Benzene,
Formaldehyde and Soot. To minimize exposure to
these substances the burners should be adjusted by a
certified installer or agency to ensure proper
combustion. Ensure proper ventilation with an open
window or use a ventilation fan or hood when cooking
with gas. Always operate the unit according to the
instructions in this manual.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the self-cleaning
cycle. Always operate the unit according to the
instructions in this manual.
After a spill or boilover, turn off the burner and allow
the cooktop to cool. Clean around the burner and
burner ports. After cleaning, check for proper
operation.
Cookware Safety
Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning
food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the
pan.
Cleaning Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe
Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires
the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm, and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to
such substances. The burning of gas cooking fuel and
the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can
generate some by-products which are on the list. To
minimize exposure to these substances, always
operate this unit according to the instructions
contained in this booklet and provide good ventilation.
Use Proper Pan Size.
The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion
of the heating element or burner to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Select cookware
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface units of different size. Proper
relationship of cookware to heating element or burner
will also improve efficiency.
Always position handles of utensils inward so they do
not extend over adjacent work areas, burners, or the
edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires,
spills and burns.
Adjust burner flame size so that it does not extend
beyond the edge of the cookware. Proper relationship
of cookware to burner flame reduces safety risks.

Causes of Damage
Environmental protection
9 CAUTION
Heat damage on adjoining appliances or furniture
Heat and moisture arise when the appliance is
operated for a prolonged period of time.
Additional ventilation is required. Open
windows or switch on a ventilation hood that
leads to the outside.
9 CAUTION
Damage to the appliance due to heat build-up

with several burners at a time.
9 CAUTION
Malfunction
Always set control knobs to the zero position
when the appliance is not in operation.
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in
line with environmental requirements.
Tips for saving energy
▯ Use pots and pans with flat bottoms. Uneven
bottoms increase energy consumption.
▯ For small amounts, use a small pot. A large pot
that isn't very full requires a lot of energy.
▯ Always cover pots with a lid that fits. When
cooking without a lid, you need four times more
energy.
▯ Cook with little water. This saves energy. The
vitamins and minerals in vegetables are
preserved.
▯ Switch promptly back to a lower setting for
cooking.
9 CAUTION
Avoid scratching the cooktop when removing
and fitting the pan support. Remove it with both
hands in the upward direction.

Setting up burners
The burner parts must be positioned evenly and so
that they fit perfectly in place, otherwise malfunctions
may occur with ignition or during operation. The snapin pins must engage in the appropriate slots.
12
Operation
The markings on the control knobs show you the
power from a full to a small flame. The power is can be
adjusted continuously.
‒ The electronic system runs a self-test every time
the gas cooktop is switched on. The electrode
ignites the burner after a few seconds.
‒ The appliance is not operable during a power
outage.
Notes
‒ Only light cooking positions when the pan
support and all burner parts are correctly
positioned.
‒ The burner and electrode must be clean and dry.
‒ Only use the specified accessories. Do not line
stainless steel cooktop (e.g. with aluminum foil).
‒ Do not cover up the gas cooktop's ventilation
openings under the pan support.
9 CAUTION
Heat damage to the range hood
Turn on a range hood when the gas cooktop is
in operation. An appropriately high-output range
hood must be selected for using multiple
cooking zones. Provide for sufficient air supply.
Turning on
Your gas cooktop has automatic fast ignition.
1 Place an appropriate cooking vessel on the
required burner.
2 Push in the appropriate control knob and turn it
left to the desired position. The burner ignites
automatically.
Electronic flame monitoring and automatic re-ignition
For your safety, the cooktop is equipped with an
electronic flame monitoring system. The appliance reignites the burner automatically if the flame goes out
during operation (e.g. through a draft of air).
If re-ignition is unsuccessful (e.g. the burner has been
soiled by overboiling), the appliance turns off the
supply of gas and an audible signal sounds.
Turn the control knob to the 0 position. Wait until the
appliance has cooled down sufficiently and then
check whether all burner parts are correctly fitted.
Check whether the burner or the electrode is soiled
(see "Troubleshooting").
Note the following when igniting the cold appliance to
a full flame:
Depending on the type of gas and gas pressure, it is
possible that the electrode ignites and then switches
off again although a flame is present. Turn the control
knob to the 0 position and then to the low flame. After
igniting, wait for 30 - 60 seconds until the burner has
warmed up. You can now use your appliance in the
manner to which you are accustomed.
Turning off
Turn the desired control knob right, as far as it will go,
to position 0.
By slowly turning the control knob, the flame size can
be steplessly adjusted between full and low flame.
Notes
‒ If you have large pots standing on the cooking
positions, you should ignite with a small flame.
‒ The electronic system opens the supply of gas
when you switch on the gas cooktop and this
produces a brief noise. This is normal.
If all control knobs are turned to 0, the appliance
electronics close the gas supply.
Safety lock
For your protection, the appliance has a safety shut-off
feature. The appliance switches off after six hours if it
is not operated during this time.
Even after a power outage, the appliance stays
switched off. A prolonged audible signal is sounded.
Turn all control knobs to 0. You can then operate the
appliance in the way to which you are accustomed.

Minimum diameter of pot base
Tips for cooking and roasting
The values in the settings table serve as mere
guidelines, since more or less heat may be required,
depending on the type and condition of the foods, as
well as the size and fullness of the pot.
The high output causes grease and oil to heat up
quickly. Don't leave food unattended while frying;
grease can catch fire and burn the food.
The rear cooking zones should be used to prepare
foods requiring longer cooking times.
For parboiling, frying and deep-frying large portions,
you should use the high-output burners or wok
burners.
Wok tips
We recommend woks with a concave bottom. You can
order a high-quality wok as a special accessory (WP
400 001)
For cooking, only use cooking oil that can be heated
up, such as peanut oil, with the wok.
Information for use
Use cooking vessels of
appropriate size for the
particular burner.
Don't use small cooking
vessels on large burners.
The flame shouldn't come
in contact with the sides of
the cooking vessel.
Don't use any deformed
cooking vessels that don't
stand solidly on the
cooktop. The vessels could
tip over.
Only use cooking vessels
with flat and thick bottoms.
Don't cook without a lid or
if the lid is not on all the
way. The majority of the
heat is lost.
Cook the ingredients at high heat while stirring
constantly, for not too long. The vegetables should
still be firm to the bite.
14
Place the cooking vessel in
the center of the burner,
otherwise it may tip over.
Don't place large pots on
the burners near the stove
controls. They could
overheat and become
damaged.
Place the pots on the pan
supports, never directly
onto the burners.
Prior to use, ensure that
the pan supports and lids
of the gas burners are
positioned correctly.
Handle vessels carefully on
the cooktop.
Don't bang the cooktop
and don't place any heavy
weights on it.
Never heat a cooking
vessel (e.g. roasting tin,
pan, cooking stone) with
multiple burners. The
resulting accumulation of
heat causes damage to the
appliance.
Care and cleaning
In this section, you'll find tips and information about
optimum care and cleaning of the cooktop.
9 WARNING
Risk of electrical shock
Moisture entering the appliance can cause an
electrical shock. Don't use a high-pressure

service (order number 463582). It is suitable for pan
supports, burner parts and the stainless steel
cooktop. Leave on overnight if necessary. Bear in
mind the notes on the cleaner.
Burner discoloration
After prolonged use, the brass burner parts go dark
due to natural oxidation. The color changes has no
impact on useful benefit. Proceed as follows to
remove such discoloration:
1 Prepare a solution out of equal parts white
vinegar with no more than 8 % acid (domestic
vinegar) and warm water.
2 Place the discolored burner parts in the solution
for 10 minutes at most. Remove stubborn stains
with a cloth or a sponge.
3 Then thoroughly rinse the burner parts with clear
water and dry them well before their next use.
16
9 CAUTION
Too high a concentration of solution or
excessively prolonged contact of the burner
parts with vinegar will damage the surface.
