Warning and Safety instructions
Protecting the appliance from
damage
Do not drop anything on the ceramic
~
surface. Even a light object such as a
salt cellar, could cause damage in
certain circumstances.
Do not use pots or pans on the
~
ceramic hob with bases with
pronounced edges or ridges e.g. cast
iron pans. These could scratch or scour
the hob surface permanently. Grains of
salt and sand can also scratch.
Do not allow either solid or liquid
~
sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get on the ceramic surface when
it is hot. If this should occur, switch off
the appliance and carefully, while they
are still hot, scrape off all remains of
these materials using a shielded
scraper blade. Take care not to burn
yourself. If residues are allowed to cool
before being removed, the ceramic
surface will be susceptible to pitting or
even cracking.
Clean the appliance once it has cooled
down.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
~
this appliance. The steam could reach
electrical components and cause a
short circuit. Pressurised steam could
also cause permanent damage to the
surface and to other components, for
which the manufacturer cannot accept
liability.
Never place hot pans near the
~
control area. This can damage the
electronics.
If a drawer is fitted directly
~
underneath the hob, ensure that there
is sufficient space between the drawer
and its contents and underside of the
appliance in order to ensure sufficient
ventilation for the hob.
In countries where there are areas
~
which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the appliance guarantee.
To prevent the risk of spillages etc.
~
burning on, remove any soiling as
quickly as possible and ensure that pan
bases are clean, dry and free of
grease.

Warning and Safety instructions
Protection from burning and
scalding
The surface of the appliance is hot
~
when in use, and remains hot for quite
a while after being switched off. There
is a danger of burning until the residual
heat indicators go out.
For added protection it is advisable
~
to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance. Do
not let them get damp or wet, as this
causes heat to transfer through the
material more quickly with the risk of
scalding or burning yourself.
Do not heat up unopened tins of
~
food on the hob as pressure will build
up in the tin and it can explode. This
could result in injury and scalding or
damage.
Do not place objects other than pots
~
and pans on the hob. Be especially
careful not to place knives, forks or
spoons etc, or other metallic items on
the hob. If the hob is switched on, or if
there is residual heat present, the
metallic items can heat up and cause
burning. Remember that metallic items
can cause the cooking zone to heat up
unintentionally! Depending on material,
other non-metallic items can melt or
burn if placed on the hob. Switch the
hob off after use.
Do not cover the appliance, e.g.
~
with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could
be a fire hazard if the appliance is
switched on by mistake.
Never leave the appliance
~
unattended when cooking with oil or fat
as these are fire hazards if overheated.
Very hot oil can catch fire and could
even set a cooker hood above on fire.
Always heat fat slowly, watching as it
heats.
If, despite this, oil or fat does catch
~
fire, do not attempt to put out the flames
with water. Use a suitable fire blanket,
saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to
smother the flames.
Do not flambé under a cooker hood.
~
The flames could set the cooker hood
on fire.

Warning and Safety instructions
Appliance faults
In the event of damage or a defect,
~
switch off the appliance immediately.
Disconnect completely from the
electricity supply. If the appliance has
not yet been fully installed, the
electricity cable must be disconnected
from the supply point. If connected via
a plug and socket, switch off at the
socket and withdraw the plug. Contact
the Service Department.
Do not reconnect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply until after it has
been repaired.
If there is any damage to the
~
ceramic surface the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply immediately and not used until it
has been repaired. Danger of electric
shock.
Repairs must only be carried out by
~
a suitably qualified and competent
person. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be very
dangerous and could damage the
appliance. The manufacturer cannot be
held liable for unauthorised work. Never
open the housing of the appliance.
While the appliance is under
~
guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.

Warning and Safety instructions
Electromagnetic fields
For people fitted with a heart
~
pacemaker:
Please note that the area immediately
surrounding the hob is
electromagnetically charged, and that
this could affect a pacemaker.
If in any doubt consult the manufacturer
of the pacemaker or your doctor.
Ensure pans are placed centrally
~
over the cooking zone to prevent
unnecessary exposure to the
electromagnetic field.
To prevent damage to items which
~
are susceptible to magnetic fields, e.g.
credit cards, diskettes, pocket
calculators etc, do not leave them in the
immediate vicinity of the hob.
Further safety notes
Ensure pans are placed centrally
~
over the cooking zone to prevent
unnecessary exposure to the
electro-magnetic field.
When using an electric socket near
~
the appliance, care should be taken
that the cable of the electrical
appliance does not come into contact
with the hot appliance. The insulation
on the cable could become damaged,
giving rise to an electric shock hazard.
Always ensure that food is
~
sufficiently cooked or reheated. Many
factors will affect the overall cooking
time, including the size and amount of
food and its temperature. Some foods
may contain micro-organisms which are
only destroyed by thorough cooking;
therefore when cooking or reheating
foods such as poultry, it is particularly
important that the food is completely
cooked through. If in doubt, select a
longer cooking or reheating time.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
~
containers. These melt at high
temperatures and could damage the
ceramic surface. Fire hazard.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other
~
inflammable substances must not be
stored in a drawer under the hob.
Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
