Frequently Asked Questions - B11ITX BAUMATIC

How to connect the Baumatic B11ITX hob?

Check that the mains voltage (230 V) and available power match the data on the rating plate. The connection must be made with a H05RR-F 3x2.5 mm² cable. If you use a plug, it must be standardised and support the load. For a fixed connection, install an omnipolar circuit breaker with a contact distance of at least 3 mm. Earthing is mandatory and the earth conductor (yellow/green) must be 10 mm longer than the phase conductors.

What to do before first use of the hob?

Before first cooking, clean the hob. Then turn on all heating elements one by one without a pan, at maximum power, for 5 minutes. This eliminates the new smell and evaporates moisture accumulated on the heating plates.

How to clean the ceramic hob?

Wait for the hob to cool down. Use a damp cloth with hot soda for light dirt. Water stains can be removed with vinegar or lemon. Incrustations can be removed with a glass scraper (non-plastic handle). Never use a steam cleaner, steel wool or abrasive sponges. Sugar and sweet foods must be removed immediately when they caramelise.

What to do if the hob does not heat up?

Before calling after-sales service, check that the plug is properly inserted and the circuit breaker is on. If the problem persists, turn off the appliance without intervening and contact the authorised After-Sales Service.

What does the residual heat indicator mean?

Each cooking zone has an indicator that lights up automatically when the temperature exceeds 50°C. After switching off the zone, the indicator remains on as long as the surface has not dropped below 50°C. Do not touch the zone while the indicator is on.

Can I use Pyrex or porcelain pans on the ceramic hob?

Yes, provided the bottom is smooth and the container is suitable for cooking on ceramic. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. For better heat transmission, use pans with a solid, thick bottom, preferably the same diameter as the cooking zone.

How to avoid scratches on the ceramic hob?

Never use steel wool, abrasive sponges or scouring powders. Use only recommended detergents and a soft cloth. Avoid dropping hard or sharp objects on the surface. Do not use the hob as a work surface.

What to do if a cooking zone does not turn on?

Check that the control knob is correctly set to a number from 1 to 6 and that the mains presence indicator is on. If the zone remains cold, it may be a fault. Turn off the appliance and contact after-sales service.

What is the total power of the appliance?

The Baumatic B11ITX hob has a total power of 6.0 kW at 230 V, with a current of 27 A. It has four zones: two of 1200 W and two of 1800 W.

How to request after-sales service for my hob?

Keep the duly filled warranty certificate together with proof of purchase (invoice, receipt). In case of problem, contact the authorised Baumatic After-Sales Service, specifying the model B11ITX and the nature of the fault. Do not intervene on the appliance yourself.

USER MANUAL B11ITX BAUMATIC

1. Installation (Fig 1)

Installation is the buyer's responsibility. The manufacturer accepts no liability for this service. Any action that the manufacturer has to take due to an erroneous installation will not be covered by the guarantee.

The flush-mounted cook tops are designed for installation in work tops made of all kinds of material, providing they can withstand a temperature of 100^ , and are between 25 and 40mm thick

Fixing the cook top to the unit (Fig 2)

The cook top is fixed to the unit by means of the brackets and accessories provided. Holes are provided in the bottom of the tray where the tabs (A) are inserted so that you can attach the screws (C) that hold the brackets (B) in place.

Applying the seal (Fig 3)

Important - The figure below shows how the seal must be attached all around the perimeter.

This cook top has been designed for non-professional, domestic use.

2. Electric connections (Fig 4)

Check the details given on the nameplate situated on the underside of the cook top, then make sure that the rated mains voltage and power available are suitable for its operation.

Before making the electric connections, check the efficiency of the earthing system. Earthing of the cook top is compulsory by law. The manufacturer will accept no liability for any personal injury or damage to property deriving from failure to comply with this requirement.

For models without a plug, fit a standard plug capable of withstanding the specified load on the power cord. The cord's earthing conductor is colored yellow and green. The plug must be accessible.

If you prefer to make a fixed connection to the mains, insert an all-pole circuit breaker with a breaking gap of at least 3 mm between the cook top and the mains.

To connect the cook top power cord, loosen and remove the cover on the terminal block in order to access the contacts inside. Make the connection, blocking the cord in place with the cable clamp provided and then close the terminal block cover again immediately.

If you have to change the cord, the earthing (yellow / green) conductor must always be 10mm longer than the line conductors.

Use only rubber cable type H05RR-F.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

A few cooking tips

Use only saucepans and frying pans with a sturdy, preferably thick bottom. This is particularly important when preparing food requiring high cooking temperatures, such as fried foods. If the bottom of the pan is not perfectly flat, the food takes longer to cook and uses up more energy. The best heat transfer is obtained when the saucepan and burner are the same size.

You can also use Pyrex and porcelain pans on the burners, providing the bottom of the pan is smooth. Refer to the instructions of the pan manufacturer on this point.

Any spillages from the pans should be wiped away immediately.

Important notes

Warning: the burner surface becomes red hot when in use, so it is always advisable to keep children well away from the cook top.

Avoid dropping any hard object on the cook top surface. In some conditions, the material is sensitive to mechanical loading. The shock of a sharp or pointed object can damage the cooking surface. In the event of any breakage, cracking or other damage being accidentally caused to the ceramic top, it is essential to stop using the cook top immediately and contact customer care.

Ceramic glass cook tops must never be used as a work surface or to prepare food wrapped in aluminium foil or packaged in plastic. Never use the burner without a saucepan on it. Never place flammable, explosive or deformable objects in the vicinity of the cook top.

Fats and oils can catch fire if they are overheated: that is why foods requiring the use of fat or oil, e.g. French fries, must always be supervised while they are cooking.

Moreover, it is essential to make sure that the power cords and plugs of any other domestic appliances attached to sockets near the cook top can never come into contact with the hot cook top surfaces.

No part of the power supply cable must reach an ambient temperature which is over 50^ .

If damaged, the cable must be replaced with one supplied by the technical assistance service.

If the glass surface breaks, unplug the device from the mains supply in order to avoid getting an electric shock.

The cook top must never be cleaned with steam or other such cleaning devices.

It is essential to clean the cook top - once it has cooled down - every time it has been used. Even the smallest food scraps would burn the next time it is used. Use only the recommended detergents. Wire wool, abrasive pads and powders will cause scratching. Oven-cleaning products are unsuitable because they are corrosive.

Mild soiling can be removed with the aid of a damp cloth or with hot soda. Any traces of detergent must be removed with cold water and the surfaces must then be accurately dried. Any signs of water that cannot be removed with boiling water can be eliminated with vinegar and lemon juice, or with a scale-remover fluid. If any of these detergents comes into contact with the cook top frame, it must be cleaned off immediately with a wet cloth, to avoid damaging the seal.

Any tenacious dirt can easily be removed with the aid of a glass scraper. The scraper handle must not be made of plastic because it could become stuck to the hot surfaces. Pay attention while using to scraper: it can cause injury.

Sugar and foods containing caramelized sugar must be removed immediately from the hot burner.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Before calling in the technician:

• if the cook top does not work, we recommend you first make sure that the plug is fitted properly in the power socket. If you cannot find any reason for the malfunction:

• turn off the appliance and do not manhandle it. Call in the technical support service.

The appliance comes with a guarantee certificate that entitles you to use the technical support service.
