WARNINGS WARNINGS
WARNINGS
T
his appliance must be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with the current
regulations in the country where the appliance is installed and must only be used in a well
ventilated area. Ensure that your hob is correctly installed and grounded by a qualified
technician.
All our products have been designed in accordance with current safety standards. Read the
manuals before installing and using this appliance.
Disposal of the packaging
Unpack the hob completely before using.
After unpacking, dispose of the cardboard and plastic packaging as ecologically as possible.
Recycling packaging materials saves raw materials and reduces the amount of waste.
Do not let children play with the packaging.
The European Parliament’s 2012/19/EU directive on waste from electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE) requires that used household appliances are not disposed of in unsorted
municipal landfills and must be collected separately to optimise recovery and recycling of the
materials they contain and thus reduce their impact on human health and the environment.
Consumers should contact their local authorities or their dealer with regard to the procedure to
be followed for the collection of their old appliance.
Please comply with local regulations for disposal of the packaging material. The packaging can
thus be recycled.
This “crossed-out bin” logo found on all products means that the equipment cannot
be disposed of with other waste, that it is the object of a selective collection with a
view to recovery, reuse or recycling.
Correct instal lation
Read the information in this manual carefully before turning on your cooktop. You will find
important information about your safety, the use, care and maintenance of your product, so that
you can enjoy it for a long time.
If your appliance stops working, read "What do to in case of a problem" first. You an often solve
minor problems yourself and avoid the cost of unnecessary service.
Keep this manual in a safe place. Pass it on to any new owners, for their safety and information.
Do not install cupboards or shelves directly above the hob. If you use the space above the hob,
only store rarely used items that can be safely stored in a location exposed to heat from the hob.
The parts that are protected by the manufacturer must not be manipulated by the installer or the
user.

WARNINGS WARNINGS
Use of cooktop:
Warning
The accessible parts may be hot: keep young children at a safe distance.
Do not leave children alone and unsupervised.
The cooktop is not intended for use with an external timer or a separate remote control system.
Intensive or prolonged use of the appliance may require additional ventilation, for example, by
opening a window or, for more efficient ventilation, by turning up the power of the mechanical
ventilation, if installed.
A slight odour due to newness may be given off when the appliance is used for the first time. The
odour will fade quickly during use.
The induction hob responds very quickly to high power levels ("Booster" position): do not
leave the appliance unattended!
Use appropriately sized pans.
This hob has cooking surfaces of different sizes. Use flat-bottomed pans. Do not use unstable
saucepans, and turn handles inwards.
Do not use pans that are wider than the edge of the work surface.
Never place hot pans on the displays!
During cooking, beware of a very rapid increase in temperature on the cooking surfaces. Avoid
heating empty pans (risk of the pans overheating!)
Never place empty saucepans or frying pans on a cooking surface that is on.
Warning, when using a bain-marie pan: bain-marie pans can boil dry with no warning! This
damages the pan and the cooking surface. If this happens, the manufacturer shall not be held
responsible.
Never leave a deep fryer pan unattended. Always watch oil and heat it slowly. Deep fryer pans
must only be filled to one-third of their capacity. A deep fryer pan that is too full can spill over
when food is added. If you are using a mixture of oil and fat for frying, mix them together before
heating or as the fat melts.
Food that will be fried must be as dry as possible. Ice crystals on frozen food or moisture on cold
food can lead to boiling and oil spilling over.
Be very careful when heating fat and oil because these items can ignite if overheated. If possible,
use a deep-frying thermometer to prevent heating the oil beyond its smoking point.
Meals or dishes that contain oil must not be left unattended while cooking.
Never attempt to extinguish burning oil or fat with water! Put the lid on and turn the cooking
surface off.

WARNINGS WARNINGS
Make sure that water does not seep into the appliance.
Never place objects on the induction cooktop.
Never place aluminium foil or plastic food wrap on the cooking surfaces. Keep anything that
might melt, e.g. plastic objects or clingfilm, sugar and food with a high sugar content away from
the cooking surface. Removed spilled sugar from the ceramic glass immediately, while it is still
warm, using a special glass scraper to avoid damaging the cooktop.
It is recommended to avoid placing metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids on
induction plates, because they can become hot. Risk of burns!
Metal objects worn on the body can become hot when close to the induction hob. Warning, risk
of burns. This warning does not apply to non-magnetisable objects such as gold or silver rings.
Do not store combustible products, petrol and other flammable liquids and gases near this
appliance.
Do not store flammable products near the cooktop burners. This includes paper, plastic and fabric
objects, such as cookery books, plastic utensils and tea towels, as well as flammable liquids.
Never heat unopened tinned food, nor food in laminated packaging on the cooking surfaces. The
power supply could cause them to explode!
Hot saucepans and frying pans should never be placed over the displays. Otherwise, the displays
could become permanently damaged.
Wear appropriate clothing.
Do not wear loose or flowing clothes when using the hob.
Take care when reaching for objects in cupboards above the cooktop.
Use only dry pot holders or oven gloves.
Using damp pot holders or oven gloves on hot surfaces can cause steam burns. Never allow pot
holders to come into contact with hot heating elements.
Never use a tea towel or other thick cloth instead of an insulating oven glove. It could catch fire
upon contact with a hot surface.
Never operate the hob with wet hands.
After use, turn of al l induction plates using the switch and do not rely on the pan detector.
The ceramic glass surface is very durable. However, avoid dropping hard objects on it. Dropped
pointed objects can cause the cooktop to crack.
As soon as a crack appears in the cooktop, immediately turn the power supply off and have
it repaired by a qualified technician.
