• Any unqualified work or repairs carried out
on the appliance are dangerous since
there is a risk of electrical shocks and
short circuits. No such work or repairs
may be carried out in order to avoid in-
jury to persons and damage to the appli-
ance. For this reason it is essential for
such work or repairs to be carried out by
a qualified electrical technician, for
example, a member of customer service.
• Overheated oil or fat can ignite on the hob.
Cooking must be monitored.
Never pour water onto oil or fat that has
ignited since there is a risk of burns. Cover
the cookware to smother the flames.
Switch off the cooking zone and let the
cookware cool down on the hob.
• Electric appliance connection cables
must not come into contact with hot cook-
ing zones since this may result in a short
circuit if the cable insulation material be-
comes damaged. Always keep electric
cables away from the hob.
• Never place combustible or easily-inflam-
mable objects or objects which may be-
come deformed on heating right under-
neath the hob.
• Caution: infants and children are particu-
larly at risk of suffering burns or scalds
since they are not yet able to recognise
the risks. Always keep small children away
from the hob and only allow older children
to use the hob under supervision.
• The surfaces of heating and cooking
appliances become hot during operation.
For this reason small children must
always be kept away from them. Always
use pot holders and oven gloves and use
your appliance with care in order to avoid-
ing burning and scalding.
Safety instructions
• Do not put any metal objects, such as
knives, forks, spoons and tops of jars or
bottles onto the induction hob since they
may become hot.
• Switch the cooking zone off with the touch
control. Do not use the pot detection func-
tion alone, in order to avoid the appliance
being switched on again unintentionally.
• Magnetising cookware made of steel,
steel enamel or cast iron must be used
for cooking and baking with the induction
hob.
• High-pressure cleaners and steam jets may
not be used for cleaning the appliance.
• Should any tears or breaks occur on the
glass ceramic hob, the appliance must be
put out of operation, since there is a risk
of electrical shock. Switch off the cook-
ing zones and the appliance fuse in the
fuse box. After doing so, please contact
customer service.
Avoiding damage
• Glass ceramic hobs can be damaged if
objects are placed on them.
• Glass ceramic hobs are extremely robust,
but they are not unbreakable. Hard or
sharp objects which fall onto the hob may
damage the surface.
• Grains of sand or rough cast-iron pots can
scratch the surface and the trimmings.
• Do not push any cookware around on the
hob since this may scratch the trimmings.
Lift up cookware when moving it from one
cooking zone to another.
Proper use
The induction hob is designed to be built
into a worktop. It may only be used for
preparing food in homes.
It may not be used for any purpose other
than that for which it is intended.
