Safety instructions
Connection and operation
• The appliances are constructed in accordance with the
relevant safety regulations.
• Connecting the appliance to the mains and repairing and
servicing the appliance may only be carried out by a qualified
electrician according to currently-valid safety regulations. For
your own safety, do not allow anyone other than a qualified
service technician to install, service or repair this appliance.
Concerning the hob
• Never allow the induction hob to operate unattended, as
the high power setting (power max.) results in extremely
fast reactions.
• When cooking, pay attention to the heat-up speed of the
cooking zones. Avoiding boiling the pots dry as there is a risk
of the pots overheating!
• Do not place empty pots and pans on cooking zones which
have been switched on.
• Take care when using simmering pans as simmering water
may dry up unnoticed, resulting in damage to the pot and to
the hob for which no liability will be assumed.
• It is essential that after using a cooking zone you switch it off
with the respective minus key and not just with the pan recognition device.
• Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Always
supervise the preparation of food with fats and oils. Never
extinguish ignited fats and oils with water! Put the lid on the
pan and switch off the cooking zone.
• The glass ceramic surface of the hob is extremely robust. You
should, however, avoid dropping hard objects onto the glass
ceramic hob. Sharp objects which fall onto your hob might
break it.
• If cracks, fractures or any other defects appear in your glass
ceramic hob, immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect
the fuse immediately and call Customer Service.
• If the hob cannot be switched off due to a defect in the sensor
control immediately disconnect your appliance and call
Customer Service.
• Take care when working with home appliances! Connecting
cables must not come into contact with hot cooking zones.
• The glass ceramic hob should not be used as a storage area.
• Do not put aluminium foil or plastic onto the cooking zones.
Keep everything which could melt, such as plastics, foil and in
particular sugar and sugary foods away from hot cooking
zones. Use a special glass scraper to immediately remove any
sugar from the ceramic hob (when it is still hot) in order to
avoid damaging the hob.
• Metal items (pots and pans, cutlery, etc.) must never be put
down on the induction hob since they may become hot. Risk of
burning!
• Do not place combustible, inflammable or heat deformable
objects directly underneath the hob.
• Metal items worn on your body may become hot in the
immediate vicinity of the induction hob. Caution! Risk of burns!
Non-magnetisable objects (e.g. gold or silver rings) will not be
affected.
• Never use the cooking zones to heat up unopened tins of food
or packaging made of material compounds. The power supply
may cause them to burst!
• Keep the sensor keys clean since the appliance may consider
dirt to be finger contact. Never put anything (pans, tea towels
etc.) onto the sensor keys!
If food boils over onto the sensor keys, we advise you to
activate the OFF key.
• Hot pans should not cover the sensor keys, since this will
cause the appliance to switch off automatically.
• Activate the childproof lock if there are any pets in the home
which could make contact with the hob.
• The induction hob may not be used when pyrolysis operation
is taking place in a built-in oven.
Concerning persons
•Caution!
People who are not familiar with the built-in hob must only be
allowed to operate it under supervision. Small children must
always be kept away from the hob. Never allow them to play
with the appliance.
• Attention!
The surfaces of the heating and cooking zones become hot
during use. Keep small children away at all times.
• Persons with cardiac pacemakers or implanted insulin pumps
must make sure that their implants are not affected by the
induction hob (the frequency range of the induction hob is 20 50 kHz).

Operation
Operation
The hob
The hob is equipped with an induction cooking mode. An
induction coil underneath the glass ceramic hob generates an
electromagnetic alternating field which penetrates the glass
ceramic and induces the heat-generating current in the pot base.
With an induction cooking zone the heat is no longer transferred
from a heating element through the cooking pot into the food
being cooked; instead the necessary heat is generated directly in
the container by means of induction currents.
Advantages of the induction hob
– Energy-saving cooking through the direct transfer of energy to
the pot (suitable pots/pans made of magnetisable material are
required).
– Increased safety as the energy is only transferred when a pot
is placed on the hob.
– Highly effective energy transfer between an induction cooking
zone and the base of a pot.
– Rapid heat-up.
– The risk of burns is low as the cooking area is only heated
through the pan base; food which boils over does not stick to
the surface.
– Rapid, sensitive control of the energy supply.
Pan recognition
If a cooking zone is switched on and there is no pan on the zone
or if the pan is too small, there will be no transmission of power. A
blinking in the cooking level display points this out.
If a suitable pot or pan is placed on the cooking zone, the power
setting will switch on and the power setting display will light up.
The power supply will be cut off when the pan is removed and the
power setting display will indicate a blinking .
If the pots and pans placed on the cooking zone are of smaller
dimension, and the pan recognition still switches on, less power
will be supplied.
Pan recognition limits
GB
Operating time limit
The induction hob has an automatic time limit function.
The duration of continuous use of each cooking zone depends on
the cooking level selected (see chart), provided that the setting of
a respective cooking zone is not adjusted during use.
If the operation time limit has been activated, the cooking zone
will switch off, a short signal will sound and an H will appear in
the display.
The automatic switch-off function overrules the operation time
limit, i.e. the cooking zone is only switched off when the period of
time of the automatic switch-off device has expired (e.g. automatic switch-off after 99 minutes and cooking level 9 is possible).

Protection against overheating
(induction)
If the hob is used at full power for a longer period, it will not be
possible to cool down the electronics system as required at a
high room temperature.
In order to ensure that no excessive temperatures occur in the
electronics system the power of the cooking zones may be
reduced automatically.
Should E2 be displayed frequently during normal use of the hob
and at normal room temperature, it is likely that cooling is not
sufficient.
The reason may be that there are no openings for cooling
purposes in the kitchen units or that there is no insulation. It may
be necessary to check the installation of the hob.

Operation
GB
Cookware for induction hobs
Cookware for induction cooking zones must be made of metal
and have magnetic properties. The base must be sufficiently
large.
Only use pots with a base suitable for induction.
Suitable cookware Unsuitable cookware
Enamelled steel pots with a thick
base
Cast iron pots with an enamelled
base
Pots made of multi-layer
stainless steel, rustproof
ferrite steel or aluminium with a
special base
This is how to establish the suitability of a pot:
Conduct the magnet test described below or make sure that the
pot bears the symbol for suitability for cooking with induction
current.
Magnet test:
Move a magnet towards the base of your cookware. If it is
attracted, you can use the cookware on the induction hob.
Note:
When using pans suitable for induction from certain
manufacturers, noises may occur which are attributable to the
design of these pans.
Pots made of copper,
stainless steel, aluminium,
oven-proof glass, wood,
ceramic and terracotta
• Use the right pot for the quantity of food you are cooking. A
large pot which is hardly filled will use up a lot of energy.
Power settings
The heating power of the cooking zones can be set at various
power levels. In the chart you will find examples of how to use
each setting.

Residual heat display
The glass ceramic hob is equipped with an H as a residual heat
display.
As long as the H lights up after the cooking zone has been
switched off, the residual heat can be used for melting food or for
keeping food warm.
The cooking zone may still be hot when the letter H no longer
lights up. Risk of burns!
The ceramic hob is not directly heated in the case of an induction
cooking zone; it only heats up due to the effect of heat reflected
by the pan.
Take care when using simmering pans as simmering water may
dry up unnoticed, resulting in damage to the pot and to the hob
for which no liability will be assumed.
How to cut power consumption
The following are a few useful hints to help you cut your
consumption of energy and use your new induction hob and the
cookware efficiently.
• The base of your cooking pots should be the same size as the
cooking zone.
• When buying cooking pots, note that it is frequently the
diameter of the top of the pot that it indicated. This is usually
larger than the base of a pot.
• Pressure cookers are particularly low on energy and time
required thanks to the pressure and the fact that they are
tightly closed. Short cooking times mean that vitamins are
preserved.
• Always make sure that there is sufficient fluid in your pressure
cooker since the cooking zone and the cooker may be
damaged as a result of overheating if the pressure cooker
boils dry.
• Always close cooking pots with a suitable lid.

“Cookware for induction hobs”.
Error code E2 is indicated?
The electronic unit is too hot. Check the installation of the hob.
Make sure that there is sufficient ventilation.
See the section on thermal cut-off.
Error code U400 is indicated?
The hob has been incorrectly connected. The controls will switch
off after one second and a continuous signal will sound. Connect
the appliance to the appropriate power supply.
An error code (ERxx or Ex) is indicated?
The appliance has developed a technical defect. Please call
Customer Service.
The pot sign appears?
A cooking zone has been switched on and the hob is expecting a
suitable pot or pan to be placed on the cooking zone (pan
recognition). Only when a pot has been placed on the cooking
zone will power be supplied.
The pot sign still appears, even though a pot or pan was
placed on the hob?
The cookware is unsuitable for induction cooking or the pot or
pan is too small.
Is the cookware you are using making noises?
This is due to technical reasons; the induction hob and the pot
are not at risk.
Does the cooling fan still operate after it has been switched
off?
This is normal since the electronic unit is being cooled down.
Is the hob making noises (clicking or cracking sounds)?
This is for technical reasons and cannot be avoided.
Does the hob have tears or cracks?
If cracks, fractures or any other defects appear in your glass
ceramic hob, immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect
the fuse immediately and call Customer Service.

Instructions for assembly
Instructions for assemb ly
Note
The KÜPPERSBUSCH induction hob may only be built-in in
accordance to the instructions included in this manual. In
the case of failure to observe these instructions,
KÜPPERSBUSCH shall decline any liability and the
approved marks of conformity will become invalid!
Safety instructions for kitchen unit fitters
• Veneers, adhesives and plastic surfaces of surrounding
furniture must be temperature resistant (>75°C). If the veneers
and surfaces are not sufficiently heat resistant they can
become deformed.
• Ensure that all live connections are safely insulated when
installing the hob.
• Cover strips between the wall and the worktop behind the hob
which are made of solid wood are permissible as long as
minimum clearances in accordance with the installation
diagrams are maintained.
• Minimum clearances of the hob cut-out towards the rear are to
be maintained in accordance with the installation diagram.
• For installation directly next to a tall cupboard, a safety
distance of at least 40 mm must be ensured. The side surface
of the tall cupboard should be fitted with heat resistant
material. Due to working requirements, however, the distance
should be at least 300 mm.
• The clearance between the hob and an extraction hood must
be at least as large as that stipulated in the assembly
instructions for the cooker hood.
• The packaging materials (plastic foil, polystyrene, nails etc.)
must be kept out of reach of children as these parts are
potentially dangerous. Small parts can be swallowed and there
is a danger of plastic sheeting causing suffocation.
Venilation
• Clearance between the induction hob and kitchen furniture or
built-in units must provide for sufficient ventilation of the induction hob.
• If the power level of a cooking zone is automatically raised or
lowered (see section on thermal cut-off device) it is likely that
the cooling system does not cool sufficiently.
In this case we recommend that the back wall of the bottom
kitchen unit in the area of the worktop cut-out be opened and
that the front transverse strip of the unit be removed over the
entire width of the appliance in order to promote the circulation
of air.

Installation
Important
• Remove any transverse strips underneath the worktop at least
in the area of the worktop cut-out.
• Avoid excessive thermal development from below e.g. from a
baking oven without a cross flow cooling device.
• The induction hob may not be used when pyrolysis operation
is taking place in a built-in oven.
• When installing the appliance on top of a drawer it is essential
to ensure that no sharp items are stored in the drawer since
these could become bent on the underside of the hob and
prevent the drawer from being opened and closed.
• If a shelf has been inserted underneath the hob, there must be
a clearance of at least 20 mm to the underside of the hob in
order to ensure that the hob is sufficiently ventilated.
• The hob may not be installed above refrigerators, freezers,
dishwashers, washing machines or dryers.
• To avoid danger of fire, make sure that no combustible objects
which could easily catch fire or become deformed on exposure
to heat are directly next to or under the surface.
Sealing of the hob
Before installation, correctly insert the sealing unit delivered with
the hob.
• No liquids may penetrate between the edge of the hob and the
worktop or between the hob and the wall and come into contact with any electrical appliances.
• When installing a hob into an uneven worktop, e.g. with a
ceramic or similar covering (tiles etc.), the seal on the hob is to
be removed and the seal between the hob and worktop made
with plastic sealing materials (putty).
• The hob must under no circumstances be sealed with
silicone sealant!
hob at a later date without damaging it.
Working surface cut-out
Cut out the worktop recess accurately with a good, straight saw
blade or recessing machine. The cut edges should then be
sealed so that no moisture can penetrate.
The area is cut out as illustrated.
The glass ceramic hob must have a level and flush bearing. Any
distortion may lead to fracture of the glass panel.
Make sure that the sealing of the hob is properly seated.
This would make it impossible to remove the
The glass ceramic hob is fastened with clips or with brackets.

Clips
• Drive the clips into the worktop cut-out at
the intervals indicated. It is not necessary
to adjust the height due to the horizontal
stop.
• Important! The horizontal drive of the clips
must be flush with the worktop (avoid the
risk of fractures).
• Position the hob according to the
illustration on the left side (a), align it (b)
and insert the clips (c).
• Screws may be used to fasten the clips.
Important!
There is a risk of breakage if the hob is
canted or subjected to stress during
installation!

Electrical connection
• The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician who is authorised to carry out such work!
• Statutory regulations and the connection specifications issued
by the local power supply company must be strictly observed.
• When connecting the appliance it must be ensured that there
is a device which makes it possible to disconnect it from the
mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least
3 mm. Line-protecting switches, fuses or contactors are suitable cut-out devices.
• When connecting and repairing the appliance disconnect it
from the electricity supply with one of these devices.
• The earth wire must be sufficiently long so that if the strain
relief fails, the live wires of the connecting cable are subjected
to tension before the earth wire.
• Any superfluous cable must be removed from the installation
area beneath the appliance.
• Make sure that the local mains voltage is the same as the
voltage on the rating label.
• To connect the appliance, unscrew the switchbox cover on the
underside of the appliance to access the terminal block. After
connecting the appliance, replace the cover and secure the
connection cable with the strain relief clamp.
• The connection cable must be at least H05 RR-F.
• If the excess cable of this appliance is damaged, it has to be
replaced by the manufacturer, the Customer Service of the
manufacturer or by another qualified person
putting persons at risk.
• Full protection against accidental contact must be ensured on
installation.
• Attention! Incorrect connection may result in the power
electronics unit being destroyed.
