2 Safety Instructions and Warnings

2.1 For connection and operation

• The appliances are constructed in accordance with the relevant safety regulations.

• Connecting the appliances to the mains and repairing and servicing the appliances may only be carried out by a qualifi ed electrician according to currently-valid safety regulations. For your own safety, do not allow anyone other than a qualifi ed service technician to install, service or repair the product.

• If the mains supply cable of this appliance is damaged, it has to be replaced by the ma- nufacturer, the Customer Service of the ma- nufacturer or by another qualifi ed person to avoid danger.

• The appliance may not be operated with an external timer or an external telecontrol sys- tem.

2.2 General information on the hob

• Never allow the induction hob to operate unattended, as the high power setting results in extremely fast reactions.

• When cooking, pay attention to the heat-up speed of the cooking zones. Avoid boiling the pots dry as there is a risk of the pots overhea- ting!

• Do not place empty pots and pans on cooking zones which have been switched on.

• Take care when using simmering pans as sim- mering water may dry up unnoticed, resulting in damage to the pot and to the hob for which no liability will be assumed.

• It is essential that after using a cooking zone you switch it off with the respective regulator and not just with the pan recognition device.

• Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Always supervise the preparation of food with fats and oils. Never extinguish igni- ted fats and oils with water! Switch the appli- ance off and then carefully cover the fl ame, for example with a lid or an extinguisher blanket.

• The glass ceramic surface of the hob is ex- tremely robust. You should, however, avoid dropping hard objects onto the glass ceramic hob. Sharp objects which fall onto your hob might break it.

• There is a risk of electric shocks if the glass ceramic hob develops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other kind. Immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect the fuse immediately and call Customer Service.

• If the hob cannot be switched off due to a defect immediately disconnect your appliance and call the Customer service.

• Take care when working with home applian- ces! Connecting cables must not come into contact with hot cooking zones.

• Risk of fi re: never store items on the hob.

• The glass ceramic hob should not be used as a storage area.

• Do not put aluminium foil or plastic onto the cooking zones. Keep everything which could melt, such as plastics, foil and in particular su- gar and sugary foods away from hot cooking zones. Use a special glass scraper to immedi- ately remove any sugar from the ceramic hob (when it is still hot) in order to avoid damaging the hob.

• Metal items (pots and pans, cutlery, etc.) must never be put down on the induction hob since they may become hot. Risk of burning!

• Do not place combustible, infl ammable or heat deformable objects directly underneath the hob.

• Metal items worn on your body may become hot in the immediate vicinity of the induction hob. Caution! Risk of burns! Non-magnetisa- ble objects (e.g. gold or silver rings) are not aff ected.

• Never use the cooking zones to heat up unopened tins of food or packaging made of material compounds. The power supply may cause them to burst!

• Never put anything (pans, tea towels etc.) onto the displays!

• Hot pans and pots should not cover resp. be moved to close to the displays.

• Place the pan as close to the centre of the cooking zone as possible.

• Whenever possible, use the back cooking zones for large pans so that the displays are not heated up too much.Safety Instructions and Warnings

• Activate the childproof lock if there are any pets in the home which could make contact with the hob.

• The induction hob may not be used when pyrolysis operation is taking place in a built-in oven.

• Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner or similar appliance!

• Make sure there are no items (e.g. cleaning cloths) right next to the hob extractor. They could be sucked in by the air current. Liquids and small items must always be kept away from the appliance.

• Do not operate the appliance without grease fi lter.

• Filter with too much fat deposits causes fi re hazard!

• Constant supervision is essential when deep- frying; fl ambéing is not permitted.

• A suffi cient supply of inlet air must be provided when operating wood, coal, gas or oil heaters requiring a chimney. The permissible negative pressure which results from the hood in the location of the heaters requiring a chimney may not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) as this re- sults in a risk of poisoning.

• Vapour also emits moisture into the air in the kitchen during the cooking process.

• Only a little moisture is removed from the vapours in the convection air mode. This is why a suffi cient supply of fresh air must al- ways be provided, e.g. by opening the window or using domestic ventilation systems.

• Always make sure that the indoor climate is normal and comfortable (45 - 60 % humidity).

• Switch the hob extractor down to a lower setting for around 20 minutes or activate the automatic delayed stop function every time the hob extractor is used in the convection air mode.

• These appliances may be used by children aged 8 years and over and by persons with physical, sensory or mental impairments or by persons who lack experience and/or know- how, provided they are supervised or have been instructed in the safe used of the appli- ance and have understood the risks relating to the appliance. Children may not play with the appliance. Cleaning and maintenance by the user may only be carried out by children when they are supervised.

• The surfaces of the heating and cooking zones become hot during use. Keep small children away at all times.

• Only hob protective grids and hob covers produced by the hob manufacturer or the manufacturers of the hob protective grids and hob covers authorised by the manufacturer in the instructions for use may be used. The use of unsuitable hob protective grids and hob covers may result in accidents.

• Persons with cardiac pacemakers or implan- ted insulin pumps must make sure that their implants are not aff ected by the induction hob (the frequency range of the induction hob is 20-50 kHz).Safety Instructions and Warnings

The hob is equipped with an induction cooking mode. An induction coil underneath the glass ceramic hob generates an electromagnetic alternating fi eld which penetrates the glass ceramic and induces the heat-generating current in the pot base. With an induction cooking zone the heat is no longer transferred from a heating element through the cooking pot into the food being cooked; instead the necessary heat is generated directly in the container by means of induction currents. Advantages of the induction hob

• Energy-saving cooking through the direct transfer of energy to the pot (suitable pots/pans made of magneti- sable material are required).

• Increased safety as the energy is only transferred when a pot is placed on the hob.

• Highly eff ective energy transfer between an induction cooking zone and the base of a pot.

• The risk of burns is low as the cooking area is only he- ated through the pan base; food which boils over does not stick to the surface.

• Rapid, sensitive control of the energy supply.

If a cooking zone is switched on and there is no pan on the zone or if the pan is too small, there will be no trans- mission of power. A blinking in the power level indicator points this out. If a suitable pot or pan is placed on the cooking zone, the power setting will switch on and the power setting indicator will light up. The power supply will be cut off when the pan is removed and the power setting indicator will indicate a blinking . If the pots and pans placed on the cooking zone are of smaller dimension, and the pan recognition still switches on, less power will be supplied. Pan recognition limits Cooking zone diameter (mm) Recommended minimal diameter pan base (mm) 220 x 190 115 The base of pots and pans must be of a certain diameter; if it is not, the induction heat will not be switched on. Al- ways place pots and pans in the middle of a cooking zone in order to achieve the best effi ciency. Important: The minimum diameter required to activate the pan recognition device may vary according to the type of pot or pan used!

4.3 Operation time limit

The induction hob has an automatic time limit function. The duration of continuous use of each cooking zone de- pends on the cooking level selected (see chart). This requires that the setting of a respective cooking zone is not adjusted during use. If the operation time limit has been activated, the cooking zone will switch off , a short signal will sound and an H will appear in the display. The automatic switch-off function overrules the operation time limit, i.e. the cooking zone is only switched off when the period of time of the automatic switch-off device has expired (e.g. automatic switch-off after 99 minutes and cooking level 9 is possible). Operation time limit Selected cooking level Operation time limit in mi- nutes

If two or more control knobs are turned at the same time (e.g. over-twisting for the power setting) no function will be activated. The symbol blinks and after a few seconds the appliance will switch off . To delete the symbol turn the same control knob or switch the hob off and on.

4.5 Protection against overheating

If the hob is used at full power for a longer period, it will not be possible to cool down the electronics system as requi- red at a high room temperature. In order to ensure that no excessive temperatures occur in the electronics system the power of the cooking zones may be reduced automatically. Should E2 be displayed fre- quently during normal use of the hob and at normal room temperature, it is likely that cooling is not suffi cient. This may occur if kitchen units have no openings. The installation may have to be checked (see the section on Ventilation).Operation

Cookware for induction cooking zones must be made of metal and have magnetic properties. The base must be suffi ciently large. Only use pots with a base suitable for induction. Suitable cookware Unsuitable cookware Enamelled steel pots with a thick base Pots made of copper, stainless steel, aluminium, oven-proof glass, wood, ceramic and terracotta Cast iron pots with an ena- melled base Pots made of multi-layer stainless steel, stainless ferrite steel and aluminium with special base This is how to establish the suitability of a pot: Conduct the magnet test described below or make sure that the pot bears the symbol for suitability for cooking with induction current. Magnet test: Move the magnet towards the base of your cookware. If it is attracted, you can use the cookware on the induction hob. Please note: When using pans suitable for induction from certain manu- facturers, noises may occur which are attributable to the design of these pans. Wrong: the base of the pan is curved. The electronic unit cannot determine the temperature correctly.

4.7 How to cut power consumption

The following are a few useful hints to help you cut your consumption of energy and use your new induction hob and the cookware effi ciently.

• The base of your cooking pots should be the same size as the cooking zone.

• When buying cooking pots, note that it is frequently the diameter of the top of the pot that it indicated. This is usually larger than the base of a pot.

• Pressure cookers are particularly low on energy and time required thanks to the pressure and the fact that they are tightly closed. Short cooking times mean that vitamins are preserved.

• Always make sure that there is suffi cient fl uid in your pressure cooker since the cooking zone and the cooker may be damaged as a result of overheating if the pres- sure cooker boils dry.

• Always close cooking pots with a suitable lid.

• Use the right pot for the quantity of food you are cook- ing. A large pot which is hardly fi lled will use up a lot of energy.

The heating power of the cooking zones can be set at various power levels. In the chart you will fi nd examples of how to use each setting. Setting Suitable for

Off , using residual heat Melting 42°C Keeping warm 70°C Cooking 94°C Simmering small portions Simmering level Simmering larger quantities or roasting larger pieces of meat until they are cook- ed through Roasting, getting juices Roasting Bringing to the boil, browning, roasting Power boost (highest power output) A higher power level may need to be selected for cooking pots without a lid.

4.9 Residual heat display

The glass ceramic hob is equipped with an H as a residual heat indicator. As long as the H lights up after the cooking zone has been switched off , the residual heat can be used for melting food or for keeping food warm. The cooking zone may still be hot when the letter H no longer lights up. Risk of burns! The glass ceramic is not directly heated in the case of an induction cooking zone; it is only heated up by heat refl ec- ted by the pan.Operation

4.10 Switching the appliance into the standby mode

This regulator is used to switch the entire hob operational. It is, as it were, the main switch. An automatic test of the cont- rols will be carried out fi rst of all, and the displays will light up briefl y. When the hob has been switched off with this control knob, it will remain on standby for approx. another 120 min. Attention! The residual heat indicator will no longer operate when the appliance has completely switched off .

4.11 Switching on the hob and cooking zones

1. Turn the control knobs to the right.

2. Immediately put cookware suitable for induction cooking

onto the cooking zone. The pan recognition device will ac- tivate the induction coil. The pot or pan will be heated up. As long as no cooking pot is placed onto the cooking zone, the display will alternate between the power level set and the symbol . If no pot is placed on the cooking zone it will switch off after 10 minutes for reasons of safety. Please refer to the Section on pan recognition.

4.12 Switching off a cooking zone

3. Turn the regulator to the left to 0.

4.13 Childproof lock

The childproof lock serves the purpose of preventing children from switching on the induction hob either accidentally or intentionally. The controls are blocked here. Switching on the childproof lock

1. Turn the regulators of the front and back cooking zones

simultaneously to the left until they stop and a signal sounds. The power setting indicators will show an for child lock, the controls will be disabled and the hob will switch off . Switching off the childproof lock

2. Turn the regulators of the front and back cooking zones

simultaneously to the left until they stop and a signal sounds. The will go off . Notes

• In the event of a power cut the childproof lock will be can- celled, i.e. deactivated. Suitable for induction cookingOperation

The front and the rear cooking zones may be activated to- gether for a cooking process (bridging function). This enables larger cookware to be used.

1. Turn the regulators of the front and back cooking zones

simultaneously to the right until they stop and a signal sounds. The bridging function is activated, the symbol appears. Operation is carried out with the regulator of the front cook- ing zone.

2. To deactivate activate them simultaneously again or switch

off the hob. Please note The roaster or the pot will need to cover at least half of the cooking zones used in order to be recognised by the pan recognition device!

4.15 Automatic boost function

Food is parboiled at power setting 9 with the automatic boost function. After a certain time, the power level will switch down automatically to a lower simmering setting (1 to 8). When using the automatic boost function only the simmering setting with which the food is to be cooked through needs to be selected since the electronic unit switches down automati- cally. The automatic boost function is suitable for dishes which are cold initially and are then heated up at high power. These dis- hes do not need to be constantly monitored when simmering (e.g. boiling meat for soups).

1. Turn the respective regulator to the left until they stop and

2. Immediately turn the regulator back to the required sim-

mering setting. The automatic parboiling mode will then have been activated. The automatic boost function will operate as programmed. After a certain time (see chart) the cooking process will be continued with the simmering setting. The A symbol will go off . Please note

• The simmering setting can be raised while the automatic boost function is in operation. A reduction in the simmering setting will switch off the automatic boost function. Cooking level Setting Automatic boost function Time (min:sec)

With the keep-warm function you keep food warm with a specifi c temperature. The respective cooking zone is ope- rated at a low power level.

1. Turn the regulator to the right into the required position:

corresponds to about 42°C corresponds to about 70°C corresponds to about 94°C

2. The keep-warm function is available for 120 minutes,

after which the cooking zone will be switched off .

The power boost setting makes additional power available for induction cooking zones. A large quantity of water can be brought to the boil very quickly.

1. Turn the respective regulator to the right until they stop

and a signal sounds. The power setting display shows . The power boost will now be activated.

2. After 10 minutes the power boost setting will switch off

automatically. The will go off and the power level will switch down to 9. Please note: Switch off the cooking zone or set the required power level to prematurely switch off the power boost setting.

4.18 Power management

For technical reasons two cooking zones always comprise a module and have a maximum power level. If this power range is exceeded when a higher power setting level or the power boost function is switched on the power management system will reduce the power setting of the corresponding cooking zone of the module. The display for this cooking zone will initially blink, after which the highest-possible power setting will be consis- tently displayed. Modules (power management)Operation

The fan is located in the middle of the hob with the extractor facing downwards. Remove the glass cover before initial operation of the fan. The cover does not need to be removed from models with an open cover. Important: Do not put the cover onto the induction hob! Risk of bur- ning!

4.19.1 Switching the fan on and off

1. Turn the fan regulator into the required setting 1, 2, 3 or 4.

The symbol for the fan will light up. The intensive power setting 4 operates for 10 minutes, after which the power level is automatically reduced to power setting 3.

2. To switch off the function turn the regulator to 0.

Hint In order to ensure that extraction functions well with tall cooking pots (e.g. pots used for cooking asparagus), you can place a wooden spoon under the lid of the pot.

The fan time lag is used after cooker in order to remove cooking odours. The fi lter is also dried in the fan. Setting the fan time lag

1. Turn the regulator to the right until it stops.

The fan time lag of 10 minutes will be activated. The symbol for the fan time lag will light up .

2. The fan time lag of 60 minutes is activated by turning the

3. The fan time lag function is deactivated by turning the regu-

lator again. The fan setting can be freely adjusted or changed when the fan time lag is switched on.

4.19.3 Stop delay time

The fan motor should continue operating for another 10-20 minutes every time the hob has been used for cooking. When the fan is switched off after having been in operation for at least 15 minutes, an automatic time lag at a low setting will follow for around 15 minutes. This guarantees optimal functioning and the removal of remai- ning cooking steam. When using a recirculating air fi lter, please always allow for a stop delay time of 10 - 60 minutes in order to optimally remove cooking odours. When the fan is switched on again, in rare cases the odour mo- lecules present in the fi lter may be combined with steam so that they are detected again. These remaining odours will disappear when the fan continues to operate. Important When the convection air mode is in operation, ventilation must be suffi cient in order for the air humidity to be removed. Glass cover The open cover does not need to be removed.Cleaning and care

• Switch the hob off and let it cool down before you clean it.

• Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam clea- ner or similar appliance!

• When cleaning make sure that you only wipe lightly over the ON/OFF key. The hob may otherwise be acci- dentally switched on!

5.1 Glass ceramic hob

Important! Never use aggressive cleaning agents such as rough scouring agent, abrasive saucepan cleaners, rust and stain removers etc. Cleaning after use

1. Always clean the entire hob when it has become soiled.

It is recommended that you do so every time the hob is used. Use a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid for cleaning. Then dry the hob with a clean dry cloth to ensure that there is no detergent left on the surface of the hob. Weekly cleaning

2. Clean the entire hob thoroughly once a week with com-

mercial glass ceramic cleaning agents. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. When applied, the cleaning agent will coat the hob in a protective fi lm which is resistant to water and dirt. All the dirt will re- main on the fi lm and can then easily be removed. Then rub the hob dry with a clean cloth. Make sure that no cleaning agent remains on the surface of the hob since this will react aggressively when the hob is heated up and will change the surface.

5.2 Specifi c soiling

Heavy soiling and stains (limescaling and shiny, mo- ther-of-pearl-type stains) can best be removed when the hob is still slight- ly warm. Use commercial cleaning agents to clean the hob. Proceed as outlined under Item 2. First soak food which has boiled over with a wet cloth and then remove remaining soiling with a special glass scraper for glass ceramic hobs. Then clean the hob again as described under Item 2. Burnt sugar and melted plastic must be removed imme- diately, when they are still hot, with a glass scraper. Then clean the hob again as described under Item 2. Grains of sand which may get onto the hob when you peel potatoes or clean lettuce may scratch the surface of the hob when you move pots around. Make sure that no grains of sand are left on the hob. Changes in the colour of the hob will not aff ect the func- tion and the stability of the glass ceramic material. These colour changes are not changes in the material but food residues which were not removed and which have burnt into the surface. Shiny spots result when the base of the cookware rubs on the surface of the hob, particularly when cookware with an aluminium base or unsuitable cleaning agents are used. They are diffi cult to remove with standard cleaning agents. You may need to repeat the cleaning process several times. In time, the decoration will wear off and dark stains will appear as a result of using aggressive cleaning agents and faulty pan bases.

Cleaning the metal grease fi lters Clean the metal grease fi lters in the dishwasher or in mild soapy water at least once a month or in the event of excessive grease deposits and/or intensive use. To remove the fi lter, lift up the fan cover and lift the U-sha- ped stainless steel ventilation plate in the suction intake opening upwards to remove it from the fan. Now remove the fi lter. To do so, press the lock in the recessed handle downwards and remove the fi lter. The fi lter can be rinsed in a dishwasher. Stand the fi lter upright in the dishwasher. Please use only rinse aid that is suitable for use with aluminium in order to avoid damaging and discolouring the fi lters. Never rinse right next to glasses or light-coloured porce- lain. Do not operate the fan without grease fi lters! After rinsing the fi lter, dry it and replace it in the fan. Please make sure that the recessed handle is visible after you have replaced the fi lter. If possible, wipe the easily acces- sible inside of the fan with a cloth dampened with deter- gent every time you replace a fi lter, while at the same time paying attention to protruding parts in the inside of the fan. Fan cleaning and care The fan is best cleaned every time you clean the fi lters. Condensation water may collect under the fi lter after water has boiled rapidly with the lid of the pot removed. This is quite normal. The water should, however, be removed and the inside of the fan cleaned. The ventilation openings in the cover ensure that residual moisture resulting from cooking and cleaning can escape if necessary when the fan is not in operation and the cover is on. Please clean the fi lter and the inside of the fan if unplea- sant remaining odours escape. The fan is best cleaned with a soft damp cloth and mild soapy water. Service The fi lter must remain accessible. Replace the charcoal fi lter mats of a charcoal fi lter every 5 to 24 months. Replace the charcoal fi lter mats of plasma fi lters at least every 5 years. To do so, open the cover of the casing and replace the charcoal fi lter mats.What to do if trouble occurs?

6 What to do if trouble occurs? Interference with and repairs to the appliance by unquali- fi ed persons are dangerous as they can result in an elec- tric shock or a short circuit. Do not interfere with or try to repair the appliance; this could cause injury to persons and damage to the appliance. Always have such work done by an expert, e.g. a Customer Service technician. Please note If your appliance is faulty, please check whether you can rectify the problem yourself by consulting these instruc- tions for use. You may be able to rectify some problems yourself. They are described below. The fuses blow regularly? Contact a technical customer service or an electrician! You can't switch your induction hob on?

• Has the wiring system (fuse box) in the house blown a fuse?

• Has the hob been connected to the mains?

• Is the childproof lock activated, i.e. does the display show an “L”?

• Are you using unsuitable cookware? See the section on Cookware for induction hobs. The symbol fl ashes? Two control knobs have been turned at the same time (e.g. over-twisting for the power setting). Remedy: to delete the symbol turn the same control knob or switch the hob off and on. Error code E2 is indicated? The electronic unit is too hot. Check the installation of the hob. Make sure that there is suffi cient ventilation. See the section on “Protection against overheating”. See the section on “Ventilation”. Error code E8 is indicated? Fault on the left or right fan. The suction opening is blo- cked or covered or the fan is defect. Check the installation of the hob. Make sure that there is suffi cient ventilation. See the section on “Protection against overheating”. See the section on “Ventilation”. Error code U400 is indicated? The hob has been incorrectly connected. The controls will switch off after 1s and a continuous signal will sound. Connect the appliance to the appropriate power supply. An error code (ERxx or Ex) is indicated? The appliance has developed a technical defect. Please call Customer Service. The pot sign appears? A cooking zone has been switched on and the hob is ex- pecting a suitable pot or pan to be placed on the cooking zone (pan recognition). Only when a pot has been placed on the cooking zone will power be supplied. The pot sign still appears, even though a pot or pan was placed on the hob? The cookware is unsuitable for induction cooking or the pot or pan is too small. Is the cookware you are using making noises? This is due to technical reasons; the induction hob and the pot are not at risk. Does the cooling fan still operate after it has been switched off ? This is normal since the electronic unit is being cooled down. Is the hob making noises (clicking or cracking sounds)? This is for technical reasons and cannot be avoided. Does the hob have tears or cracks? There is a risk of electric shocks if the glass ceramic hob develops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other kind. Immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect the fuse immediately and call Customer Service.Instructions for assembly

7 Instructions for assembly

7.1 Safety instructions for kitchen unit fi tters

• Veneers, adhesives and plastic surfaces of surrounding furniture must be temperature resistant (at least 75°C). If the veneers and surfaces are not suffi ciently heat resistant they may become deformed.

• Ensure that all live connections are safely insulated when installing the hob.

• Cover strips between the wall and the worktop behind the hob which are made of solid wood are permissible as long as minimum clearances in accordance with the installation diagrams are maintained.

• Minimum clearances of the hob cut-out towards the rear are to be maintained in accordance with the instal- lation diagram.

• For installation directly next to a tall cupboard, a safety distance of at least 50 mm must be ensured. The side surface of the tall cupboard should be fi tted with heat resistant material. Due to working requirements, howe- ver, the distance should be at least 300 mm.

• The clearance between the hob and an extraction hood must be at least as large as that stipulated in the assembly instructions for the cooker hood.

• The packaging materials (plastic foil, polystyrene, nails etc.) must be kept out of reach of children as these parts are potentially dangerous. Small parts can be swallowed and there is a danger of plastic sheeting causing suff ocation.

• The induction hob is fi tted with a fan that switches on and off automatically. The fan starts slowly when the electronic system temperatures exceed a specifi c limit. When the induction hob is used intensively, the fan will switch to a greater velocity. Once the electronic system has cooled down suffi ciently, the fan will reduce its velocity and switch off again automatically.

• Clearance between the induction hob and kitchen furni- ture or built-in units must provide for suffi cient ventilati- on of the induction hob.

• If the power level of a cooking zone is automatically rai- sed or lowered (see section on thermal cut-off device) it is likely that the cooling system does not cool suffi cient- ly. In this case we recommend that the back wall of the bottom kitchen unit in the area of the worktop cut-out be opened and that the front transverse strip of the unit be removed over the entire width of the appliance in order to promote the circulation of air. In order to better ventilate the hob, an air gap of 5 mm should be left at the front.

• Avoid excessive thermal development from below e.g. from a baking oven without a cross fl ow cooling device.

• The induction hob may not be used when pyrolysis operation is taking place in a built-in oven.

• When installing the appliance on top of a drawer it is essential to ensure that no sharp items are stored in the drawer since these could become bent on the un- derside of the hob and prevent the drawer from being opened and closed.

• If a shelf has been inserted underneath the hob, there must be a clearance of at least 20 mm to the underside of the hob in order to ensure that the hob is suffi ciently ventilated.

• The hob may not be installed above refrigerators, free- zers, dishwashers, washing machines or dryers.

• To avoid danger of fi re, make sure that no combustible objects which could easily catch fi re or become defor- med on exposure to heat are directly next to or under the surface. Sealing of the hob Before installation, correctly insert the sealing unit deliver- ed with the hob.

• No liquids may penetrate between the edge of the hob and the worktop or between the hob and the wall and come into contact with any electrical appliances.

• When installing a hob into an uneven worktop, e.g. with a ceramic or similar covering (tiles etc.), the seal on the hob is to be removed and the seal between the hob and worktop made with plastic sealing materials (putty).

• The hob must under no circumstances be sealed with silicone sealant! This would make it impossible to remo- ve the hob at a later date without damaging it. Working surface cut-out Cut out the worktop recess accurately with a good, straight saw blade or recessing machine. The cut edges should then be sealed so that no moisture can penetrate. The area is cut out as illustrated. The glass ceramic hob must have a level and fl ush bearing. Any distortion may lead to fracture of the glass panel. Make sure that the sea- ling of the hob is properly seated.Instructions for assembly

Minimum distance to adjacent walls Opening dimensions Cutout dimensions Outer dimensions of the hob Important: There is a risk of breakage if the hob is canted or subjec- ted to stress during installation! Glue the sealing tape onto the corner of the supporting edge of the worktop so that no silicone adhesive can be pressed under the hob. Place the hob into the worktop cut-out without any adhesi- ve and align it. Use shims if necessary Fill the gap between the hob and the worktop with heat-re- sistant silicone adhesive. Important Silicone adhesive must not get under the support surface. If this occurs it will not be possible to remove the hob again at a later stage. No liability will be assumed in the case of failure to observe these instructions.
