1.3 Appliance-specific safety precautions

WARNING: If the surface has
a crack running through the thickness of the material, switch the appliance off and disconnect it from the mains to avoid possible electric shock.
1 Safety precautions
WARNING: The appliance
and its accessible parts get hot during use. Be careful not to touch the heating ele­ments.
Under no circumstances use
a steam cleaner to clean the appliance.
Do not place metal objects
such as knives, forks, spoons, lids or aluminium foil on the hob as they can get hot.
After use, switch the hob off
using the controls and do not rely on the pan detector.
WARNING: It can be danger-
ous to leave the hob unatten­ded when cooking with fat or oil, as this can lead to fires. NEVER attempt to extinguish a fire with water. Instead, switch the appliance off and then carefully smother the flames with, for example, a lid or a fire blanket.
WARNING: Never store ob-
jects on the hob due to the risk of fire.
WARNING: The cooking pro-
cess should always be super­vised. Shorter cooking pro­cesses, in particular, must be supervised the entire time.
Do not operate the appliance
using an external time switch or a separate remote control system.

1.4 Instructions for use

Before using for the first time
The appliance must be installed and
connected to the electricity supply in accordance with the separate installa­tion instructions. Have a qualified fitter/ electrician carry out the necessary work.
Correct use
The appliance is designed for use in
the home for preparing food. No liability is assumed for any damage caused by improper use or incorrect handling.
Any repairs, modifications or manipula-
tions to the appliance, especially any electrically live parts, may only be car­ried out by the manufacturer, its Cus­tomer Services or a similarly qualified person. Repairs if carried out incorrectly may cause serious injury, damage to the appliance and fittings, as well as af­fect the functioning of the appliance. If the appliance is not working properly or in case of a repair order, follow the in­structions given in the «Service & Sup­port» section. Please contact our Cus­tomer Services if necessary.
Use original spare parts only.Retain these operating instructions for
future reference. If you sell the appli­ance or pass it on to a third party, please ensure these operating instruc­tions accompany the appliance, to­gether with the installation instructions.
The appliance corresponds to recog-
nized technology standards and the rel­evant safety regulations. Proper use of the appliance is essential to avoid dam­age and accidents. Please therefore fol­low the precautions given in these oper­ating instructions.

1 Safety precautions
The heated surface will remain hot for
some time after it is switched off and will cool down only slowly to room tem­perature. Please allow sufficient time for the appliance to cool down before, for instance, cleaning it.
Note on use
Tests have shown that under normal cir-
cumstances there is no risk to cardiac pacemaker users. If, as the user of a cardiac pacemaker (or a hearing aid or another type of implant), you would like to be reassured that using the appli­ance does not pose a risk, you are ad­vised to consult a competent medical authority.
Caution: Burns hazard
Overheated fat and oil can easily catch
fire. NEVER attempt to extinguish burn­ing oil or fat with water. Danger of ex­plosion! Smother the flames with a fire blanket. Keep doors and windows closed.
Caution: Risk of injury
Keep pets away from the appliance.
Caution: Risk to life
Packaging material, e.g. plastic film and
polystyrene, can be dangerous for chil­dren and animals. Danger of suffoca­tion! Keep packaging material away from children and animals.
How to avoid damaging the appliance
In case of overheating, switch the hot-
plate off and allow it to cool down com­pletely. Do not put any dishes on it. Un­der no circumstances use cold water to cool it down quickly.
Do not climb on to the appliance.Do not put hot cookware on the hob
frame in order not to damage the silic­one joints.
Do not cut or prepare food on the sur-
face and avoid impact with hard ob­jects. Do not drag cookware across the surface.
Take particular care that sugary foods
or juices do not get onto the hot cook­ing zones as this can damage the sur­face. If sugary foods or juices do get on to the hot cooking zones clean away immediately (while still hot) with a scraper.
Pots with pure copper or aluminium
bases should not be used for cooking as they can leave behind traces that can be difficult to clean. If the traces are not removed immediately after cooking with a suitable cleaning agent, they can be permanently burned on and therefore permanently ruin the visual appearance of the appliance.
Sliding pans and cookware across the
glass ceramic causes scratches. This can be largely prevented by lifting pans and cookware up and then placing them down in position.
The hob is designed to be used – signs
of use, such as scratches or the wear and tear from pans and cookware, are normal. The more intensively it is used, the greater the signs of use; however, the appliance remains in perfect work­ing order and therefore does not give a right of complaint. Safety is guaranteed at all times.
There is no such thing as completely
scratch-proof glass; scratches can even develop on sapphire glass, which is used in watches. The glass ceramic used is of the best quality available on the market.

3.3 How induction hobs function

Induction hobs work very differently from conventional hobs or hot plates. The induction coils under the glass ceramic plate produce a rapidly changing magnetic field which dir­ectly heats up the magnetic base of the cookware. The glass ceramic plate is only warmed by the hot cookware. Removing the cookware from the cooking zone immediately interrupts the supply of energy. Induction hobs are:
quick reacting energy-efficient
finely adjustable safe
powerful

Cookware with a full-surface or full magnetic base is required for cooking with an induction hob.

3.4 Pan detection

Each cooking zone is equipped with pan detection. This detects suitable induction com­patible cookware with a magnetic base. If cookware is placed on a cooking zone before it is turned on, illuminates in the
corresponding display.
If the cookware is removed during operation or if unsuitable cookware is used,
– the power level selected flashes alternately with .
If the power level is set but no cookware is detected on the cooking zone within the
next 10minutes, – the cooking zone switches off. – the appliance switches off after 10seconds if no other cooking zone is in use.

3.5 Flexible cooking

In flexible cooking, there are no marked cooking zones. Pans with different diameters can be placed on any cooking zone. must, however, be covered for pan detection.
For even frying, the pan must be centred on . The diameter of the base of the pan should not be greater than the diameter of the cooking zone. If a large pan covers both circles, both heating zones can be switched on together with the bridging function.

3.6 Cookware

Suitable cookware

Only cookware with a magnetic base (ø12.5–22cm, in the centre ø18–28cm) is suit­able for use with the induction hob. This can be tested in the following ways:
A magnet sticks anywhere on the base of the cookware.Only the power level set illuminates on the hob.
Do not heat any unsuitable cookware using aids such as metal rings and the like. This can damage the hob.

Energy-efficient cooking

For maximum energy efficiency and even heat distribution note the following:
The base of the cookware must be clean, dry and smooth.Centre the cookware in the middle of the cooking zone.Use a well-fitting lid.Match the diameter of the cookware to the quantity of food to be cooked.

Coated cookware

Coated cookware may be operated above power level provided that the bottom of
the pan is completely covered with liquid. – The coating may otherwise become overheated and damaged.
For frying, do not use a higher power level than .
Never use PowerPlus with coated frying pans.

Noise during cooking

Cookware can make noise during cooking. This does not indicate any malfunction, nor does it affect the functioning of the appliance in any way.
