Ceramic hob is resistant to temperature shocks — you can put both hot and cold pots on it. Do not put large, heavy pots, which do not t onto one cooking zone, for example small cauldrons. Ceramic glass is particularly sensitive to the point impact, e.g. with a salt shaker, condiment jars and other small, hard objects. Observe the following rules when using the ceramic hob: - Do not operate a cooking zone without cookware, - Only place pots with a clean, dry bottom, - Immediately remove small amounts of sugar or foods (e.g. fruit compote), if possible also when hot, otherwise sugar starts to react with the hob and will cause irreparable damage,

Information on the collection point for electrical waste may be obtained from a competent municipal o󰀩ce. Important! The appliance may only be operated when you have read and understood this manual thoroughly. The appliance is intended for household use only. Any other use (e.g. for room heating) will be inconsistent with the intended use and may be dangerous. The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes that do not aect the operation of the appliance.17 Correct Incorrect Incorrect Important! Good pot allows you to save energy. Suitable pot should have a thick, at bottom, and its diameter should match the diameter of the cooking zone, as it provides best heat transfer properties. - Do not cook any food in aluminium foil, aluminium or plastic containers. - Remember not to scratch the ceramic glass, for example with dirty cookware with sharp edges, - Do not place any plastic objects on the hob, e.g. small spoons or forks, etc. Only use cookware with lids. Lids must not extend beyond the outline of the pot, so that condensed water drips on the hob, - If you notice deep scratches or cracks, immediately disconnect the hob from the electrical power supply and contact the customer service department. - Ensure that children do not play with the appliance. - This appliance may not be operated by persons with reduced physical, mental or sensory abilities (including children), or by persons with no knowledge of the appliance, unless under supervision or in accordance with the operating instructions of the appliance, pro- vided by a person responsible for safety.

4. Cleaning the ceramic hob

Clean the hob regularly after each use, if possible, while still hot. Do not allow the hob surface to burn or become heavily soiled.

3. Residual heat indicator

If the temperature of a heating zone exceeds 50°C this is signalled by an indicator which lights up for that zone. When the heating indicator lights up it warns the person using the cooker against touching a hot heating zone. For about 5 to 10 minutes after a heating zone is switched o󰀨 it will still have residual heat that can be used, for example to warm up or keep dishes warm without switching on another heating zone.18

• Kitchen worktop must have a thickness of between 28 and 40 mm and depth of at least 600 mm. It must be at and horizontal. Space between the wall and the worktop must be protected against ingress or water and moisture

• The distance between the edge of the opening (cut-out) and the edge of the worktop should be at least 60 mm on the front side, and at least 50 mm at the rear.

• Kitchen cabinets for built-in appliances must have a veneer nishing, and adhesives used must be resistant to temperature of 100°C. Failure to com- ply with this requirement may result in deformation of the surface and veneer peeling.

• The opening (cut-out) edges should be protected with a sealant providing water resistance to pre- vent swelling of the product.

• Worktop opening must be cut to dimensions as shown on Figure 1.

• Leave space of at least 80 mm under the hob, to ensure proper air circulation and avoid excessive heating of parts around the cooking zone. In the event of damage by sugar or food with high sugar content, always, or at least each time before cooking such food, wipe the hob with a special detergent for cleaning ceramic hobs or steel containers. This detergent not only cleans, but also protects by forming a protective layer of silicone oils.

5. Connect to the control panel

Connect the hob to the control panel or the oven with a cable harness terminated with plugs. It is colour-coded (white, green, blue, black, yellow). Connect by plugging a specic-colour plug of the cable harness to the outlet in the control Panel or the oven marked with the same colour. Figure - Remove light, non-sticky dirt with a damp cloth, - Remove all heavy and sticky dirt with a special scraper for ceramic hobs; remember not to scratch the ceramic glass while cleaning. (scraper is tted with a replaceable blade (see gure))

+219 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Assembly of the gasket *Depending on the model, the seal is already installed at the factory (g.1) If the seal has not been tted at the factory, proceed as follows: Before installing the hob in the cut-out worktop, the gasket is to be attached to the back of the hob (pic. 2) To do this, rst peel o󰀨 the protective lm from the self-adhesive seal and glue the gasket as close as possible to the outer edge of the hob (g. 3,4).

Do not install the appliance without the foam gasket. Then turn the hob over insert it into the cut-out of the furniture. Align the positioning symmetrically so that the distances between the hob and the countertop is the same on all sides. (g. 5)
