⚠ Warning – Risk of injury!

Saucepans may suddenly jump due to liquid between the pan base and the hotplate. Always keep the hotplate and saucepan bases dry.

Causes of damage

Caution!

■ Rough pot and pan bases scratch the ceramic.
■ Avoid boiling pots dry. This may cause damage.
■ Never place hot pots or pans on the control panel, the display area or the surround. This may cause damage.
■ Damage can occur if hard or pointed objects fall on the hob.
■ Aluminium foil and plastic containers melt on hot hotplates. Oven protective foil is not suitable for your hob.

Overview

You will find the most frequently caused damage in the following table.

Damage Cause Measure
Stains Boiled over food Remove boiled over food immediately with a glass scraper.
	Unsuitable cleaning agents	Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for glass ceramic.
Scratches Salt, sugar and sand		Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage space.
Discolouration Unsuitable cleaning agents		Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for glass ceramic.
Pan abrasion (e.g. aluminium)		Lift pots and pans when moving them.
Blisters Sugar, food with a high sugar content		Remove boiled over food immediately with a glass scraper.

Environmental protection

In this section, you can find information about saving energy and disposing of the appliance.

Energy-saving tips

■ Always place suitable lids on saucepans. When cooking without a lid, considerably more energy is required. A glass lid means that you can see inside without having to lift the lid.
■ Use pots and pans with even bases. Uneven bases increase energy consumption.
■ The diameter of pot and pan bases should be the same size as the hotplate. In particular, small saucepans on the hotplate cause energy losses. Please note: cookware manufacturers often indicate the upper diameter of the saucepan. This is usually bigger than the diameter of the base of the pan.
■ Use a small saucepan for small quantities. A larger, less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
■ Cook with only a little water. This will save energy. Vitamins and minerals in vegetables are preserved.
■ Always cover as large an area of the hotplate as possible with your saucepan.
■ Switch to a lower heat setting in good time.
■ Select a suitable ongoing cooking setting. You will waste energy by using an ongoing cooking setting which is too high.
■ Use the residual heat of the hob. For longer cooking times, you can switch the hotplate off 5-10 minutes before the end of the cooking time.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

○	Single-circuit hot-plate
◎	Dual-circuit hotplate	Select the hotplate and touch the symbol
∞	Extended cooking zone	Select the hotplate and touch the symbol
When the hotplate is activated: the corresponding indicator lights up

Notes

■ Any dark areas in the glow pattern of the hotplate are due to technical reasons. The function of the hotplate is not affected.
■ Hotplate temperature is regulated by the heat switching on and off. The heat may also switch on and off at the highest setting.

This ensures e.g.:

• sensitive components are protected from overheating
• the appliance is protected from electrical overload
• better cooking results are achieved

■ With multi-circuit hotplates the heater elements of the inner filament circuits and the heater element of the activations may switch on and off at different times.

Residual heat indicator

The hob has a two-stage residual heat indicator for each hotplate.

If H appears in the display the hob is still hot. It may be used, for example, to keep a small meal warm or to melt cooking chocolate. As the hotplate cools down further, the display changes to h. The display remains lit until the hotplate has cooled sufficiently.

Twist-Pad with Twist knob

The twistpad is the area in which you can use the twist knob to select the hotplates and set heat settings. The twist knob automatically centres itself in the twistpad area.

8· 8· 8· ·8 ·8

3D illustration of a mechanical bearing with a blue arrow indicating direction (no text or symbols)

The twist knob is magnetic and is placed on the twistpad. Tapping the twist knob where there is a marking activates the relevant hotplate. Turning the twist knob selects the heat setting.

Note: Always keep the twist knob clean. Soiling may impair its function.

Removing twist knob

You can remove the touch knob. This makes cleaning easier.

Trouble shooting

Faults often have simple explanations. Please read the notes in the table before calling the after-sales service. The electronics of your hob are underneath the control panel. For various reasons, the temperature in this area may rise sharply.

In order that the electronics do not overheat, the hotplates are switched off as and when necessary. The F2, F4, or FS display appears alternately with the H or h residual heat indicator.

Display Fault Measure
None The power supply has been disconnected. Check the household fuse for the appliance. Check whether there is a power cut by trying other electronic appliances.
All displays flash The touch control is wet or an object is resting on it.		Dry the control or remove the object.
F2	Several hotplates have been used over a prolonged period at high power settings. To protect the electronics, the hotplate has been switched off.	Wait a while. Touch any touch control. When F2 goes out, the electronics have cooled down sufficiently. You can continue cooking.

E-report in the displays

When an error message with "E" appears in the display, e.g. E0111, switch the appliance off and on again.

If it was a one-off error, the display goes out. If the error message appears again, call the after-sales service and quote the exact error message.
