The key features of your appliance
EN
• Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic glass cooking surface and
four rapid - response cooking zones. The hob’s powerful radiant heater elements significantly
shorten the amount of time required for the zones to heat up.
• Touch control sensors: Your appliance is operated using touch control sensors.
• Easy cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and the control sensors
is their accessibility for cleaning. The smooth, flat surface is easy to clean.
• On / Off sensor: The “On / Off” control sensor provides the appliance with a separate mains
switch. Touching this sensor switches the power supply on or off completely.
• Control and function indicators: Digital displays and indicator lights provide information
about settings and activated functions, as well as the presence of residual heat in the various
cooking zones.
• Safety shutoff: A safety shutoff ensures that all cooking zones switch off automatically after
a period of time if the setting has not been changed.
• Residual heat indicator: An icon for residual heat appears in the display if the cooking zone
is so hot that there is a risk of burning.
Digital displays: The four display fields are assigned to the four cooking zones.
They show the following information:
- the appliance has been switched on,
- to selected heat settings,
- residual heat,
- the child lock is activated; and
- error message, the sensor has been touched for longer than 10 seconds.
- error message, when the Hob is overheated because of abnormal operation.

Safety shutoff
If one of the cooking zones is not switched off or the heat setting is not adjusted after an extended period of time, that particular cooking zone will automatically switch itself off.
Any residual warmth will be indicated with (for “hot”) in the digital displays corresponding to
the particular cooking zones.
The cooking zones switch themselves off at the following times.
Cooking setting 1 - 2 After 6 hours
Cooking setting 3 - 4 After 5 hours
Cooking setting 5 - 6 After 3 hours
Cooking setting 7 - 9 After 1 hour
If the Hob is overheated because of abnormal operation,
And the Hob will be switched off.
Should one or more of the cooking zones switch off before the indicated time has
elapsed, see the section “Troubleshooting.”
Other reasons why a cooking zone will switch itself off
All cooking zones will immediately switch themselves off if liquid boils over and lands on the
control panel.
The automatic shutoff will also be activated if you place a damp cloth on the control panel. In
both of these instances, the appliance will need to be switched on again using the main power
sensor after the liquid or the cloth has been removed .
will be displayed.
Residual heat indicator
When an individual cooking zone or the hob is turned off, the presence of residual heat is
shown with an (for “hot”) in the digital display of the appropriate cooking zones. Even after
the cooking zone has been switched off, the residual heat indicator goes out only after the
cooking zone has cooled.
You can use the residual heat for thawing or keeping food warm.
Important: As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there is a risk of

Initial cleaning
EN
Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and ceramic cooktop glass cleaner.
Important: Do not use caustic or abrasive cleaners. The surface could be damaged.
Hob Use
Using suitable cookware
Better pans produce better results.
• You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as pos
sible.
• When buying new pans, pay particular attention to the diameter of the base. Manufactur
ers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
• Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouration on the ceramic
glass surface. The discolouration is very difficult or impossible to remove.
• Do not use pans made of cast iron or which have damaged bases with rough edges or
burrs. Permanent scratching can occur if these pan are slid across the surface.
• When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never
be bowed outwards (convex).
• If you wish to use a special type of pan, for example, a pressure cooker, a simmering pan,
or a wok, please observe the manufacturer’s instructions.

EN
Hob Use (Continued)
• Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone.
• Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power consumption.
• When possible, position the lids firmly on the pots and pans to cover completely.
• Switch the cooking zones off before the end of the cooking time to use the residual heat
for keeping foods warm or for thawing.
• The base of the pan should be the same size as the cooking zone.
• Using a pressure cooker reduces cooking times by up to 50 %
Using the touch control sensors
To operate the touch control sensors, touch the desired panel with the tip of your pointed finger until the relevant displays illuminate or go out, or until the desired function is activated.

Cleaning and Care
Hob
Important: Cleaning agents must not come into contact with a heated ceramic glass
surface: All cleaning agents must be removed with adequate amounts of clean water
after cleaning because they can have a caustic effect when the surface becomes
hot. Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven sprays, scouring pads
or abrasive pan cleaners.
Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is still warm to the touch.
This will prevent spillage from becoming burnt onto the surface. Remove scales,
watermarks, fat drippings and metallic discolouration with the use of a commercially
available ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner.
Light Soiling
1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth.
2. Rub dry with a clean cloth. Remnants of cleaning agent must not be left on the surface.
3. Thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass cooking surface once a week with a commer-
cially available ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner.
4. Wipe the ceramic glass surface using adequate amounts of clean water and rub dry with a
clean lint - free cloth.
Stubborn Soiling
1. To remove food that has boiled over and stubborn splashes, use a glass scraper.
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface.
3. Remove soiling by scraping with the blade.
Glass scrapers and ceramic glass cleaners are available from specialty retailers.

Important: Do not use vinegar, lemon juice or scale remover on the hob frame;
otherwise dull blemishes will appear.
To avoid damaging your appliance
• Do not use the cooktop as a work surface or for storage.
• Do not operate a cooking zone if there is no pan on the cooktop or if the pan is empty.
• Ceramic glass is very tough and resistant to temperature shock, but it is not unbreakable.
It can be damaged by a particularly sharp or hard object dropping onto the cooktop.
• Do not use pans made of cast iron or which have damaged bases with rough edges or
burrs. Scratching may occur if these pans are slid across the surface.
• Do not place pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage to the finish may occur.
• Avoid spilling acidic liquids, for example, vinegar, lemon juice and descaling agents, onto
the hob frame, since such liquids can cause dull spots.
• If sugar or a preparation containing sugar comes into contact with a hot cooking zone and
melts, it should be cleaned off immediately with a kitchen scraper while it is still hot. If al
lowed to cool, it may damage the surface when removed.
• Keep all items and materials that could melt, for example, plastics, aluminium foil and
oven foils, away from the ceramic glass surface. If something of this nature melts onto the
cooktop, it must be removed immediately with a scraper.

FAQs and troubleshooting
A fault may result from a minor error that you can correct yourself with the help of the following
instructions. Do not attempt any further repairs if the following instructions do not help in each
specific case.
Warning: Repairs to the appliance are to be performed only by a qualified service
technician. Improperly effected repairs may result in considerable risk to the user. If
your appliance needs repair, please contact your customer service centre.
What should I do if the cooking zones are not functioning?
Check for the following possibilities:
• The fuse in the house wiring (fuse box) is intact. If the fuses trip a number of times, call an
authorised electrician.
• The appliance is properly switched on.
• The control indicators in the control panel are illuminated.
• The cooking zone is switched on.
• The cooking zones are set at the desired heat settings.
What should I do if the cooking zones will not switch on?
Check for the following possibilities:
• A period of more than 10 seconds has elapsed between when the On / Off button was actuated and the desired cooking zone switches on (see the section “Switching the appliance
on”).
• The control panel is partially covered by a damp cloth or liquid.
What should I do if the display except for the residual warmth indicator suddenly disappears?
This could be a result of one of two possibilities:
• The On / Off sensor was accidentally actuated.
• The control panel is partially covered by a damp cloth or liquid.
What should I do if, after the cooking zones have been switched off, residual
warmth is not indicated in the display?
Check for the following possibility:
• The cooking zone was only briefly used and therefore did not become hot enough. If the
cooking zone is hot, please call the customer service centre.
What should I do if the cooking zone will not switch on or off?
This could be due to one of the following possibilities:
• The control panel is partially covered by a damp cloth or liquid.
• The child safety lock is on.
What should I do if the display is illuminated?
Check for the following:
• The control panel is partially covered by a damp cloth or liquid. To reset, press the “On / Off”
control sensor.

Warranty and Service (Continued)
What does it mean when the burner does not glow red?
EN
• The selected temperature of the cooking zone is maintained by a sensor that cycles the zone
on and off, so the surface cooking area will not always glow red. If you select a low heat
setting, the heat will cycle on and off more frequently than at higher settings. The heat also
cycles on and off at the highest setting.
If you request a service call because of an error made in operating the appliance, the visit from
the customer service technician may incur a charge even during the warranty period.
