IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
HOW TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE
• Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning creme to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
• Do not use the cooktop as a worksurface or storage space.
• Please be careful at the edges when moving pots and pans around.
• Do not have the cooking zones on with empty pans, or with no pots or pans on them.
• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature changes but is not unbreakable. It can be damaged if particularly hard or sharp objects fall onto it.
• Be very cautious if using pots made of cast iron, or other pots with rough edges or burrs. Moving these can cause scratches on glass.
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot cooking zone and melts, remove immediately, while still hot. If left to cool down, it may damage the surface when removed.
NOTE: There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!
• Keep meltable objects or materials away from the ceramic glass surface, for example, plastic utensils, aluminum foil, or cooking wraps. If any materials or foodstuffs melt on the ceramic-glass surface, these should be cleaned up immediately.
DISPOSAL OF OLD APPLIANCES
To protect the environment, it is important that worn-out appliances are disposed of in the correct manner.
• The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.
• You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse disposal sites from your local health council or environmental health office.
CAUTION
Before disposing of old appliances please make them inoperable so they cannot be a source of danger. To do this, have a qualified person disconnect the appliance from the house circuitry.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

INTRODUCTION TO INDUCTION COOKING
INDUCTION COOKING
HOW INDUCTION COOKING WORKS
An induction coil is beneath the ceramic glass cooking surface. This generates magnetic fields, which act directly on the base of the pots and pans as compared to methods that first heat the ceramic glass. This means that the
base of the pan is immediately heated up, saving time and energy.
Since the heat required for cooking is generated directly in the base of the pan, the Cooking Zone itself warms up only slightly. The cooktop becomes hot from the heat from the base of the pan.
NOTE: If there is no pot or pan on the cooking zone, there is no energy transfer (heating up). This prevents the Cooking Zones being switched on and becoming hot accidentally.
IMPORTANT:
• Remove all tape and packaging wrap before using the appliance. Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the appliance. Never allow children to play with packaging materials.
• Electromagnetic fields can affect electronic circuits and interfere with portable radios and phones.
• Do not put magnetically active objects (e.g., credit cards, computer diskettes, cassettes) on or near the ceramic glass surface while one or more induction cooking zones are in use!
• Do not put any metallic objects (e.g., spoons, pan lids) on the Cooking Zones as they can become hot when the Cooking Zones are in use.
SELECTING COOKWARE
The magnetic Cooking Zone sensors located below the cooktop surface require the use of cookware made with magnetic material in order to start the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones. When purchasing pans, look for cookware specifically labeled by the manufacturer for use with induction cooktops.
ENGLISH
POTS AND PANS
• In principle, all pots and pans with magnetic bases are suitable. These include steel, steel­enamel, as well as cast-iron pots and pans.
• High grade steel pans with a mixed metal base (sandwich base, e.g. Tefal aluminum/copper base) are suitable for induction only if the manufacturer has expressly marked them as such. In that case they have a magnetic material in the base.
• If you wish to use a special type of pan (e.g., a pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok), please follow the manufacturer’s instructions and do not use a very thin pan.
NOTE: Some cookware can produce noises when used on induction cooking zones. This is not a fault in the cooktop, and its function will not be impaired in any way as a result.
®
with an
SUITABILITY TEST:
If you are not sure if a pot or pan is suitable for use with your induction cooktop, you can find out with a few simple tests:
• Place a pot filled with a little water (1/8–1/4″) on the Cooking Zone. Set the Cooking Zone to full power (power level 9).
CAUTION
The pan base of suitable kitchenware heats up within a few seconds! Water should boil rapidly.
• You can also check cookware suitability with a magnet. If the magnet remains fixed to the base of the pan, the pan is suitable for induction cooking.
9
Page 10
INTRODUCTION TO INDUCTION COOKING
SELECTING COOKWARE (continued)
AVOIDING SCRATCHES
It is recommended to always use heavier gauge stainless steel cookware on your induction cooktop surface. This will help reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface. Low-quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface.
Cookware should always be lifted over the ceramic cooktop surface to prevent scratching. Sliding any type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop can affect the overall appearance of the cooktop. Over time, sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop may alter the overall appearance of the cooktop. Eventually, the buildup of scratches can make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the overall appearance of the cooktop.
Scratches can also result from grains of sand (e.g., after washing vegetables) which are dragged with the pot across the cooking surface.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
Always follow the recommendations for proper cookware type and size. In addition:
• Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup. Always use pans that are easy to clean after cooking, and make sure that the bottoms of the pans are clean and dry.
• When cooking with large amounts of liquid, use large pots so that nothing can boil over.
• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring that can af cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.)
• Match the pan size and Cooking Zone to the amount of food being prepared.
fect the ceramic
USE FLAT-BOTTOMED COOKWARE
Cookware must fully contact the surface of the cooking element. Use flat-bottomed pans sized to fit the cooking element and amount of food being prepared. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware.
TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY:
• Always position pots and pans before you switch on the Cooking Zone.
• Dirty cooking zones and cookware use more electricity.
• Whenever possible, always have the lid firmly placed on the pots and pans so that they are completely covered.

INTRODUCTION TO INDUCTION COOKING
SELECTING COOKWARE
SELECTING THE PROPER PAN SIZE
• There are 4 Cooking Zones on the induction cooktop. Each element requires a minimum pan size to be used effectively. The inner ring of each cooking zone is a guide to correctly match the minimum pan size. The bottom of the pan must fully cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur.
• The thicker outer ring at each Cooking Zone is helpful to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the cookware on the Cooking Zone, make sure the cookware does not extend more than
beyond the thicker line on the Cooking
1/2 Zone. The pan must make FULL contact on the glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the metal cooktop trim.
Minimum
pan size =
53⁄4(145 mm)
Minimum pan size = 71⁄4(180 mm)
Minimum pan size =
5
(125 mm)
Only use the supplied pan on the bridge element.
If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO SMALL, the affected Cooking Zone LED will blink and the pan will not heat.
ENGLISH

OTHER FUNCTIONS
POWER SHARING
Your cooktop is equipped with four induction Cooking Zones within two heating sections. The right and left Cooking Zones are powered by two independent induction inverters—one inverter for each of the two heating sections. Two Cooking Zones in a heating section share the power of one inverter. This is called power sharing.
For example, if you are cooking on both right Cooking Zones, the last power level set will be maintained, while the first Cooking Zone may experience a slight reduction in the power level.
POWER SHARING TIPS:
Remember to set the power level for the food item you wish to keep constant last. When using two Cooking Zones, you can maintain a constant power level for two pans on separate heating

CLEANING THE COOKTOP
CARE AND CLEANING
General cleaning for induction ceramic glass cooking surfaces is considerably easier than for cooking surfaces with radiant heating.
NOTE:
To prevent accidental activation of the controls, it is recommended that you set the feature before cleaning.
IMPORT
• Cleaning agents must not come in contact with the hot ceramic-glass surface. All cleaning agents must be rinsed off thoroughly with clean water.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven sprays, coarse scouring cleansers, or abrasive pan cleaners.
• Clean the ceramic-glass surface after each use when it is warm to the touch or cold. This will prevent spills from becoming burnt on. Remove water marks, grease and discoloration with a glass scraper and ceramic-glass cleaner.
NOTE:
You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic­glass cleaners from your local hardware store.
ANT:
CHILD LOCK
REMOVING HEAVY SOIL
To remove food that has boiled over or stubborn spills, use a glass scraper.
Hold the glass scraper at an angle of about
1
45° to the ceramic-glass surface. Remove soiling by sliding the blade across
2
the area.
3
Use a ceramic glass cleaner as described in GENERAL CLEANING.
PROBLEM SOILS
Remove sugar, melted plastic, aluminum foil,
1
or other meltable materials with a glass scraper immediately and while still hot. Failure to do so can cause permanent damage to the cooktop surface. If the Cooking Zone has already cooled down, warm it up again.
ENGLISH
GENERAL CLEANING
When it is cool, wipe the ceramic-glass
1
surface with a damp cloth and a small amount of ceramic glass cleaner.
2
Wipe dry with a clean cloth. Once a week, thoroughly clean the entire
3
ceramic-glass cooking surface with a commercially available ceramic-glass cleaner.
4
Then, wipe the ceramic-glass surface using a clean, soft cloth dampened with clean water, and polish dry with a clean lint-free cloth.
IMPORTANT: There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass scraper is used on a hot Cooking Zone. Use care and wear an oven mitt.
Then clean the cooktop normally when it has
2
cooled down.
NOTE: Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic­glass surface caused by a pan base with sharp edges cannot be removed. However, they do not impair the function of the cooktop.
