Please read this instruction manual carefully. This will enable you to operate your hob safely and correctly.
Please keep the instruction manual, installation instructions and the appliance certificate in a safe place. If the appliance changes owners, this documentation should always be included.
Check the appliance for damage after unpacking it. Do not switch on the appliance if it is damaged.

Safety information for this appliance

This appliance is intended for domestic use only. This appliance must only be used for food preparation. Do not leave the appliance unattended during operation.

Safe operation

Adults and children must not operate the appliance without supervision if:
they do not have the physical or mental ability,
or they lack the knowledge and experience required
to operate the appliance correctly.
Overheated oil and fat Risk of fire!
Overheated oil or fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave hot oil or fat unattended. Never attempt to extinguish burning fat or oil with water. Extinguish the flames with a lid or a plate. Switch the hotplate off.
Hot hotplates Risk of burning!
Never touch hot hotplates. Small children must be kept at a safe distance from the hob.
Risk of fire!
Never place combustible items on the hob.
Do not keep combustible objects or aerosol cans in drawers
directly underneath the hob.
Wet saucepan bases and hotplates Risk of injury!
Steam pressure may build up if there is liquid between the saucepan base and the hotplate. This may cause the pan to

jump suddenly. Always keep the hotplate and saucepan bases dry.
Cracks in the ceramic Risk of electric shock.!
Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box if the ceramic has
Incorrect repairs Risk of electric shock.!
Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box, if the appliance is faulty. Call the after-sales service. Repairs may only be carried out by one of our qualified after-sales engineers.
fractures, flaws or cracks. Call the after-sales service.
Causes of damage
The hotplate heats up but the display does not work Risk of burning!

Overview

The following table provides an overview of the most frequent kinds of damage:
Damage Cause Action
Stains Food spills Remove spills immediately with a glass scraper.
Unsuitable cleaning agents Only use cleaning agents which are suitable for ceramic
Scratches Salt, sugar and sand Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage space.

ceramic.
Discolouration Unsuitable cleaning agents Only use cleaning agents which are suitable for ceramic
Pan abrasion (e.g. aluminium) Lift the pots and pans when moving them.
Blisters Sugar, food with a high sugar content Remove spills immediately with a glass scraper.
Caution!
Rough pot and pan bases scratch the ceramic.
Avoid boiling pots dry. This may cause damage.
Never place hot pots or pans on the control panel, the
display area or the surround. This may cause damage.
Damage can occur if hard or pointed objects fall on the hob.
Aluminium foil and plastic containers melt on hot hotplates.
Oven protective foil is not suitable for your hob.

Environmental protection

Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an environmentally-responsible manner.
Environmental protection
This appliance is labelled in accordance with the European Directive 2002/96/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (WEEE – waste electrical and electronic equipment). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable.
Tips for saving energy
Always use the right lid for the pan in question. Cooking
without the lid requires four times as much energy.
Use pots and pans with even bases. Using cookware with
uneven bases increases energy consumption.
The diameter of the base of your pot or pan should match the
size of the hotplate. In particular, if pots that are too small are placed on the hotplate, energy is wasted. Please note: Cookware manufacturers often specify the diameter of the top of the pan. This is usually bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan.
Use a small pan for small quantities of food. A larger, less full
saucepan requires more energy.
Use only a little water when cooking. This saves energy. It
also preserves vitamins and minerals in vegetables.
Switch to a lower heat setting as soon as possible.
Use the residual heat of the hob. For longer cooking times,
you can switch the hotplate off 5 - 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
