• WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch the appliance off and disconnect it from the mains to avoid possible electric shock.
• WARNING: The appliance and its accessible parts get hot during use. Be careful not to touch the heating elements. Children under 8 must be kept away unless constantly supervised.
• Do not use a steam cleaner.

• Do not place metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons, lids and aluminium foil on the hob as they can get hot.

• WARNING: It can be dangerous 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 a lid or a fire blanket.

• WARNING: Never store objects on top of the hob because of fire hazard.
• Do not operate the appliance using an external time switch or a separate remote control system.
  • After use, switch the hob off using the controls and do not rely on the pan detector.

1.4 Disclaimer

• Any repairs, modifications or manipulations to the appliance, especially any live parts, may only be carried out by the manufacturer, its Customer Services or similarly qualified persons. 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 REPAIR SERVICE section. If necessary, please contact Customer Services.
• Make sure no water gets inside the appliance: Do not spray the appliance with water. If water gets inside it can damage the appliance.
• Retain these operating instructions for future reference. If you sell or pass the appliance on to a third party, please ensure these operating instructions accompany the appliance, together with the instructions on installation.
• The appliance is designed for use in the home for preparing food. No liability is assumed for any damage caused by improper or incorrect use.

1.5 Instructions for use

• The appliance corresponds to recognised technology standards and the relevant safety regulations. Proper use of the appliance is however essential to avoid damage and accidents. Please therefore follow the precautions given in these operating instructions.
• The heated surface remains hot for some time after it is switched off and cools down only slowly to room temperature. Please allow sufficient time for the appliance to cool down before, for instance, cleaning it.
• In case of overheating, switch the appliance off and allow it to cool down completely. Under no circumstances use cold water to cool it down quickly!

• If the appliance can no longer be operated, remove the fuse or switch the circuit breaker off.

• Do not climb onto the appliance.

• Do not put hot cookware on the hob frame in order not to damage the silicon joints.
• Always ensure that the base of the cookware and the surface of the hob are clean and dry before use.
• Do not cut or prepare food on the surface. 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 they can damage the surface. If sugary foods or juices do get onto hot cooking zones, clean away immediately (while still hot) with a scraper for glass ceramic hobs.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use.
• Keep animals away from the appliance.
• Induction hobs produce a high frequency magnetic field around the cooking zones. Standing near the cooking zones can under unfavourable circumstances have an adverse effect on or affect the working of pacemakers, hearing aids or metallic implants.
• Tests have shown that under normal circumstances 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.

Disconnection

▶Pull the plug out of the mains socket or have the appliance disconnected from the mains supply by an electrician. Then cut off the mains cable.
▶Disable the appliance after disconnecting it.

Appliance disposal

• The symbol on the identification plate warns that the appliance may not be disposed of in normal household waste.
• The appliance must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations on waste disposal.

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
• finely adjustable
• powerful
• energy-efficient
• safe.

Induction hobs can only be used with cookware with a magnetic base.

3.4 Pan detection

Each cooking zone is equipped with pan detection. This detects suitable induction compatible cookware with a magnetic base.

- If the cookware is removed during operation or if unsuitable cookware is used,

- the power level selected flashes alternately with

- If no suitable cookware is placed on the cooking zone before the pan detection time (10 minutes) elapses,

- the cooking zone switches off

- the display changes from to 0

- the appliance switches off after 10 seconds if no other cooking zone is in use.

3.5 Cookware

Suitable cookware

Only cookware with a magnetic base 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.
• On the hob, the power level set illuminates and does not alternate with the power level.

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 when empty may never be heated at a higher power level than ?
• The coating may otherwise become overheated and damaged.
• For frying, do not use a higher power level than 9.

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.

Noise depends on the cookware used. If the noise causes considerable disturbance, it can help to change the cookware.

5 Care and maintenance

To avoid risk of burns, allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning.

5.1 Cleaning

Always clean the hob after use. This prevents food residues from burning on. Dried-on or burned-on food residue is harder to clean off.

Use of improper cleaning techniques can result in damage to the markings or surface.

Avoid cleaning the surface of the glass ceramic hob with abrasive cleaning agents, scouring pads, wire wool, etc. which can damage the surface.

▶Use only a soft cloth or sponge with water and a suitable detergent for cleaning everyday soiling. Always follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions for use. Using a detergent with a protective additive is recommended.
- Remove stubborn soiling, e.g. boiled-over milk, while still warm using a glass ceramic hob scraper.

Always follow the scraper manufacturer's instructions for use.

▶ Foods with a high sugar content, e.g. marmalade, that boil over should be removed while still hot using a glass ceramic hob scraper. The surface of the glass ceramic hob could otherwise become damaged.
- Remove melted plastic while still warm using a glass ceramic hob scraper. The surface of the glass ceramic hob could otherwise become damaged.
▶Remove limescale stains when cool with a small amount of limescale remover (e.g. vinegar, lemon juice, descaler). Then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
