The service cables from electrical appliances must n

touch the hot	hotplates.	This could cause damage t
the hob and	the cable	insulation.

Wet saucepan bases and Steam pressure can be generated from the liquid

hotplates	between the base of the saucepan and		the	hotplate
	The steam pressure could cause the pan to jump
	suddenly. There is a risk of injury.
	Always keep the hotplate and the bases		of	saucepa
	dry.
Cracks in the glass ceramicIf there are fractures, flaws or cracks in the				glass
	ceramic, there is a risk of electric shock.

Causes of damage

Saucepan and pan bases Rough saucepan bases scratch the glass ceramic. Check your ovenware.

Avoid cooking on the hob with an empty pan, especially with enamel and aluminium pans. This could cause damage to the saucepan bases and glass ceramic.

Observe the manufacturer's instructions when using special ovenware.

Hot	pans	and	saucepans	Do	not place hot pans or saucepans on the contr
				panel display area or the frame.
				This	could cause damage.
Twist	knob			Do	not place the twist knob on the hotplates. It c
				be	damaged.
				The	twist knob is magnetic. Metal parts attached		to
				the underside could scratch the glass ceramic hob
				surface. Always wipe the twist knob thoroughly.
Salt,	sugar	and	sand	Salt sugar and sand cause scratches on the glass
				ceramic. Do not use the hob as a work surface o
				storage		space.
Hard	and	pointed objects		Damage		can occur if hard or pointed objects fall	o
				the	hob.
				Do not store such objects above the hob.
Food	spills			Sugar and food with a high sugar content damage
				hob. Remove food spills immediately with a glass
				scraper.
				Caution The glass scraper has a sharp blade.
Foil	and plastic			Aluminium foil or plastic containers melt on hot
				hotplates.
				Oven protective foil is not suitable for your hob.

caused by melted sugar or food with a high sugar content.

Scratches

caused by salt, sugar or sand particles or from rou pan bases.

Shimmering metallic discoloration

caused by pan abrasion or the use of unsuitable cleaning agents.

Scuffed surface caused by using unsuitable cleaning agents.

Hotplates with bridge heating element

Notes

Residual heat indicator

Caution

Hotplates with a bridge heating element make it possible to create one large extended cooking zone from two individual hotplates.

To switch on the extended cooking zone:

The single%circuit hotplate must be switched off.

1. Switch on the dual%circuit hotplate.

2. Use the twist knob to select the dual%circuit hotplate and touch the symbol. The outer filament circuit of the dual%circuit hotplate is switched on. Thel indicator lamp lights up.

3.Use the twist knob to select the dual%circuit hotplate and touch the symbol again. The extended cooking zone is switched on.+ The indicator light comes on.

To switch off the extended cooking zone:

and	touch	the symbol	again.	The+ indicator	light
goes	out.	The extended cooking zone is			switched o

You can adjust the heat setting using the control panels for the two hotplates.

If both hotplates are switched on you can use the symbol to switch the outer filament circuit of the dual%circuit hotplate on and off.

The memory function is deactivated for a bridge heating element.

The hob has a residual heat indicator for each hotplate. It shows which hotplates are still hot. The

residual	heat indicator	has two	levels.
If anH	appears in the	display	the hotplate is still ho

You can for example keep a small meal warm or chocolate using this heat.

As the hotplate cools down further the display changes toh. The display remains lit until the

hotplatehas		cooled	sufficiently.
The	residual	heat	indicator will no longer come on
after	a power cut.		The hotplates could still be hot.

Twistpad with removable twist knob

Twistpad

The twistpad is the area in which you select the hotplates with the twist knob and can set heat settings.

The twist knob automatically centres itself in the twistpad.

Twist knob

The twist knob is magnetic and is placed on the

twistpad. You can activate the	corresponding	hotplat
by pushing the twist knob in	the direction of	the a

You can adjust the heat setting by turning the twis knob.

Removing the twist knob You	can	remove the	twist	knob. This	makes cleanin
easier.
You	can	also remove	the	twist knob	while the hotp

is in operation. All the hotplates will switch off automatically after 3 seconds.

If you place a metal object on the twistpad within 3 seconds the hob may continue to heat up. For t reason always switch off the hob using the main switch.

12

S o ng he knob	The twist knob contains a strong magnet. Keep the
	twist knob away from magnetic data carriers such
	video cassettes diskettes credit cards or cards with
	magnetic strips. The data these contain could
	otherwise be wiped.
	It can also cause interference in television sets and
	monitors.

	from pacemakers.
Spa e knob	If you cannot	find your twist			knob	your	hob has
	another magnetic spare knob that you can use
	temporarily to operate your hob.

*Ongoing cooking without lid

Tips	on		saving
energy
				Use saucepans and pots with thick even bases.
				Uneven bases increase the cooking time.
The correct			saucepan	size Select the correct saucepan size for each hotplate.
				The diameter of the bases of the saucepans and p
				should match the size of the hotplate.
				Note: Ovenware manufacturers often give the
				diameter of the top of the saucepan.			It is usually
				than	the diameter of the	base of the	saucepan.
				Use	a small saucepan for	small quantities. A larger
				less full saucepan requires more energy.
Using	a	lid		Saucepans and pots should always be covered with
				suitable lid. Cooking without a lid requires much m
				energy.
Cooking		with small		Cook	with small quantities of water This saves ener
quantities		of	water	and	helps vegetables to retain vitamins		and minerals

17

Lowering the heat setting Switch down to a lower heat setting in good time.

Using residual heat	For longer	cooking times		switch off the hotplate 5
	10 minutes	before	the end of the cooking time.
	As long as	the	residual	heat indicatorH is lit you can
	still use the hotplate which has already been
	switched off for		warming	up or melting food.

Timer	function
			This		function can be used in two different ways:
		-		to	switch		a hotplate off automatically
		-		as	a	cooking		timer
