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.
General information on the hob
• Do not place empty pots and pans on cooking zones which
have been switched on. Avoid boiling the pots dry as there is a
risk of the pots overheating!
• 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.
• There is a risk of electric shocks if the glass ceramic hob
develops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other kind.
Immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect the fuse
immediately 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.
• Do not place combustible, volatile or heat deformable objects
directly underneath the hob.
• 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!
• Never flambé under the cooker hood - the fat in the filter can
ignite!
• Avoid repeated burning of contaminations.
Concerning persons
• This appliance is not intended to be used by persons (including children) with physical, mental or sensory impairments or
who by persons (including children) who lack the required
experience or know-how, unless such persons are supervised
by a person responsible for their safety or have been given
instructions on how to use the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised in order to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
• Attention!
The surfaces of the heating and cooking zones become hot
during use. Keep small children away at all times.

Operation
GB
Operation
Switching the cooking zones on and off
Each cooking zone has its own control. The symbols next to the
controls show to which cooking zone the respective control buttons belong.
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 a residual heat display; a
lamp has been allocated to each individual cooking zone.
This lamp will light up as soon as the respective cooking zone
has heated up to warn against touching the cooking zone unintentionally.
As long as the lamp 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 lamp no longer
lights up. Risk of burns
!
How to cut power consumption
The following are a few useful hints to help you cut your consumption of energy and use your new 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.
• 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.

Cleaning and care
• Switch the hob off and let it cool down before you clean it.
• Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner or
similar appliance!!
Glass ceramic hob
Important!
Never use aggressive cleaning agents such as rough
scouring agents, abrasive saucepan cleaners, rust and stain
removers etc.
Cleaning after use
1.
Always clean the entire hob when it has become soiled. It is
recommended that you do so every time the hob is used. Use a
damp cloth and a little washing up liquid for cleaning. Then dry
the hob with a clean dry cloth to ensure that there is no detergent
left on the surface of the hob.
Weekly clean
2.
Clean the entire hob thoroughly once a week with commercial
glass ceramic cleaning agents.
Please follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
When applied, the cleaning agent will coat the hob in a protective
film which is resistant to water and dirt. All the dirt will remain on
the film and can then easily be removed. Then rub the hob dry
with a clean cloth. Make sure that no cleaning agent remains on
the surface of the hob since this will react aggressively when the
hob is heated up and will change the surface.
Specific soiling
Heavy soiling
and stains (limescaling and shiny, mother-ofpearl-type stains) can best be removed when the hob is still
slightly warm. Use commercial cleaning agents to clean the hob.
Proceed as outlined under Item 2.
First soak food which has boiled over
with a wet cloth and
then remove remaining soiling with a special glass scraper for
glass ceramic hobs. Then clean the hob again as described
under Item 2.
Burnt sugar
and melted plastic must be removed immediately,
when they are still hot, with a glass scraper. Then clean the hob
again as described under Item 2.
Grains of sand
which may get onto the hob when you peel potatoes or clean lettuce may scratch the surface of the hob when
you move pots around. Make sure that no grains of sand are left
on the hob.
Changes in the colour
of the hob will not affect the function and
the stability of the glass ceramic material. These colour changes
are not changes in the material but food residues which were not
removed and which have burnt into the surface.
Shiny spots
result when the base of the cookware rubs on the
surface of the hob, particularly when cookware with an aluminium
base or unsuitable cleaning agents are used. They are difficult to
remove with standard cleaning agents. You may need to repeat
the cleaning process several times. In time, the decoration will
wear off and dark stains will appear as a result of using aggressive cleaning agents and faulty pan bases.
What to do if trouble occurs
Interference with and repairs to the appliance by unqualified persons are dangerous as they can result in an electric shock or a
short circuit. Do not interfere with or try to repair the appliance;
this could cause injury to persons and damage to the appliance.
Always have such work done by an expert, e.g. a Customer
Service technician.
Please note
If your appliance is faulty, please check whether you can rectify
the problem yourself by consulting these instructions for use.
You may be able to rectify some problems yourself. They are
described below.
The fuses blow regularly?
• Contact a technical customer service or an electrician!
You can't switch your hob on?
• Has the wiring system (fuse box) in the house blown a fuse?
Does the hob have tears or cracks?
• There is a risk of electric shocks if the glass ceramic hob
develops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other kind.
Immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect the fuse
immediately and call Customer Service.

Assembly instructions
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.
Electrical connection
• Make sure that the local mains voltage is the same as the
voltage on the rating label.
• The hob has been fitted with a temperature-resistant
connection cable in the factory.
• 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 to avoid danger.
• Full protection against accidental contact must be ensured on
installation.
• Attention: Incorrect connection may result in the power
electronics unit being destroyed.
Power supply
Mains voltage: 220 - 240V~, 50-60 Hz
Component rated voltage: 220 - 240V
Technical data
Installation
Important
• If the cooking surface is located above furniture parts (side
panels, drawers, etc.), then an intermediate shelf must be
inserted at a minimum distance of 20 mm in order to prevent
accidental contact with the underside of the cooking surface.
The intermediate shelf may only be removed with tools.
• To avoid danger of fire, make sure that no combustible objects
which could easily catch fire or become deformed on exposure
to heat are placed directly next to or above the hob.
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!
This would make it impossible to remove the
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.
