How to avoid damage to the appliance

• The glass ceramic can be damaged by
objects falling onto it.

• The edge of the glass ceramic can be
damaged by being knocked by the cook­ware.

Operating the hob

You operate the appliance with the com­bination appliance’s ring switches. The
operation and the function of the ring
switches is described in the Operating

ceramics, do not allow saucepans or frying
pans to boil dry.

indicator.

When a cooking zone is switched on, it
may hum briefly. This is a characteristic
of all ceramic glass cooking zones and
does not impair either the function or the
life of the appliance.

Tips on Cooking and Frying

Information on acrylamides

According to the latest scientific knowl­edge, intensive browning of food, espe­cially in products containing starch, can
constitute a health risk due to acryla­mides. Therefore we recommend cook­ing at the lowest possible temperatures
and not browning foods too much.

Cookware

• You can recognise good cookware from
the bottoms of the pans. The bottom
should be as thick and flat as possible.

• Cookware made of enamelled steel or with
aluminium or copper bottoms can leave
discolorations on the glass ceramic sur-

face which are difficult or impossible to re­move.

Energy saving

If possible, always place lids on the
pans.

Switch cooking zones off before the end
of the cooking time, to take advantage
of residual heat.

Bottom of pans and cooking zones
should be the same size.

Always place cookware on the cooking
zone before it is switched on.
