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 minus key 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 in the sensor control immediately disconnect your appliance and call 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!

• Keep the sensor keys clean since the appli- ance may consider dirt to be fi nger contact. Never put anything (pans, tea towels etc.) onto the sensor keys!

• If food boils over onto the sensor keys, we advise you to activate the OFF key.Safety Instructions and Warnings 16 of 80

• Hot pans and pots should not cover resp. be moved to close to the sensor keys, since this will cause the appliance to switch off automati- cally.

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

• Whenever possible, use the back cooking zo- nes for large pans so that the sensor keys are not heated up too much (touch control overhe- ating; error message E2, touch control cut off ).

• 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.

• Never operate the appliance without installing a 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. 2.3. For persons

• 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 17 of 80

2.4. Explanation for symbols and indications The appliance was produced according to state of the art technology. Machines nevertheless give rise to risks which cannot be constructively avoided. In order to guarantee suffi cient safety for the use, safety instructions are also given. These instructions are marked by way of the highlighted texts which follow. Suffi cient safety in operation will only be guaranteed when these instructions are observed. The designated text passages have diff erent meanings: DANGER Note indicating an imminent threat which may result in death or very serious injury. CAUTION Note indicating a potentially dangerous situa- tion which may result in death or very serious injury. IMPORTANT Note indicating a dangerous situation which may result in minor injury or damage to the appliance. PLEASE NOTE Note to be observed in order to make hand- ling the appliance easier. The following danger symbols are used at some points:

WARNING OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY

RISK OF FATAL INJURY! Live components have been installed near this symbol. Covers bearing this sign may only be removed by a certifi ed skilled electri- cian.

(ESDS). Electrostatically endangered components and modules are located behind covers be- aring the adjacent symbol. Never touch plug connections, strip conductors or component pins. Only qualifi ed staff members who are familiar with ESDs are authorised to carry out any technical intervention work.Using the fan 18 of 80

The ventilator keys are on the right side of the touch control panel. 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 down onto the induction hob! Risk of burning!

You will then be able to select a power setting, 1,2,3 or 4, by using the Plus or Minus key . 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.

3. Press the fan Minus key until 0 is shown in order to

switch fan off . 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 cook- ing odours. The fi lter is also dried in the fan. Setting the fan time lag

1. Press simultaneously the fan Plus key and Minus key

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

2. Pressing simultaneously again the Plus- and Minus

key will set 60 minutes.

3. The time lag function is deactivated by pressing the two

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

3.4.3 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 remo- ve cooking odours. When the fan is switched on again, in rare cases the odour molecules 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 19 of 80

4. Cleaning and care

4.1. Hob fan 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.Instructions for assembly 20 of 80

5. Instructions for assembly

5.1. 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. 5.2. Installation Important information

• 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. Worktop 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 21 of 80

5.4. 7-pole fan plug connector Connect the two 7-pole plus for the fan connection. Open the plug retainer on the 7-pole plug (fan) of the hob and attach the 7-pole fan mating connector (e) until it is securely engaged. Then close the plug retainer again. DANGER Risk of electric shocks The fan plug connection must be made befo- re the mains connection! The appliance must be cut off from the electricity supply before the plug retainer is opened again. The appliance may only be connected to the mains once the plug connection has been made. The hob may only be switched on when the fan mating connector has been attached and the plug retainer closed. 5.5. Hob fan installation

• The product may only be connected by a qualifi ed fi tter according to applicable local regulations. The same applies for the extraction air connections. The fi tter is responsible for proper functioning at the installation site.

• On installation, observe the relevant national building regulations and the regulations of the electricity sup- pliers.

• The hob fan can be operated in the extraction air and recirculation air mode.

• Lead the outgoing air outside through a ventilation shaft intended for this purpose or through the wall of the building.

• Outgoing air may not be led into a smoke or exhaust gas fl ue which is in operation. Contact the district mas- ter chimney sweep if you are in any doubt.

• A suffi cient supply of inlet air must be provided if a wood, coal, gas or oil heater requiring a chimney is operated in the environment of the hob fan, since an insuffi cient supply of air results in a risk of poisoning. The safe operation of the hob fan is guaranteed when the negative pressure resulting from the hob fan does not exceed 0.04 mbar (4 Pa) and a suffi cient supply of inlet air can fl ow into the room.

• Exhaust air pipes must comply with fi re class B 1 DIN

• Please make sure that the minimum nominal width of the appliance connecting pieces is not reduced.

• A system recommended for the airfl ow and compatible with the hob extractor should always be used.

• The nominal width of the recirculation air pipe should not be less than 150 mm.

• Exhaust air pipes should be as short as possible. They should not have a 90-degree angle; instead they should have soft bends and no reductions in their cross-secti- on.

• Never use pipes with a diameter of less than 150 mm. No bends/angles may be laid 50 cm before the fan module.

• Always insert a straight piece of approx. 50 cm bet- ween two angles/bends.

• The cross-section of wall vents and the cut-out in the base panel should should at least correspond to the exhaust air pipe. The outfl ow opening must be at least 500 cm². Reduce the height of the skirting boards or make corresponding openings.

• When installing the appliance make sure that the con- vection air unit is still accessible when the kitchen has been completely installed.

• If necessary levelling feet for the kitchen units must be moved. PLEASE NOTE When the convection air mode is in operati- on, ventilation must be suffi cient in order for the air humidity to be removed. eDecommissioning and disposal of the appliance 24 of 80
