Using the hob

Illustration of two circular objects emitting steam, no text or symbols present

Switch on the hob

• Before using your hob for the first time, each element should be switched on to the highest setting for 3-4 minutes, without a pan.
• The manufacturer has applied a layer of rust-preventer to each element. When the hob is heated for the first time a burning smell will be noticeable. This is normal.

Appliance information

• The heating elements are made of cast iron. he heat is created by spiral filaments which lie in the element in rings.
• The heat is transmitted to the base of the pan by direct conduction. Each element is fitted in a stainless steel sealing rim.
• When one or more plates are in use the control light on the panel will go on.
• Never use the hob without a pan. The top part of the hob could otherwise deform.

Pans

• Use pans that are suitable for cooking by electricity. Use pans with a thick and flat base. If the base is concave or convex a lot of energy is lost. The cooking process will take very long. The element can become overheated and warp.
• Pans which have previously been used on gas hobs are no longer suitable for electric cooking.
• Only place pans with a dry base on the element. Moisture on the cooking elements can cause rust.
• The diameter of the base of the pan should cover the zone completely. Do not use pans that are smaller than the cooking zone. This will prevent food spills on the very hot cooking zone. Burnt-on food spills are difficult to remove.
  • Always use a lid during cooking to minimise the loss of energy.

Operating the hob

• A symbol next to the control knob indicates which element is being operated.
• You may turn the switch either to the left or the right.
• When you switch on the hob, the control light.
• The cooking zone can be switched off 5 to 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time. The dish will then finish cooking on the residual heat, provided you keep the lid on the pan.

Cleaning

Attention

Switch off the appliance and let it cool down completely before starting any cleaning work.

• The hobs are best cleaned with a damp cloth or kitchen paper.
• Remove all spillages as soon as possible. Red cabbage, rhubarb and apple sauce in particular will corrode the varnish or stainless steel.
• Never use scouring powders, aggressive cleaning agents, green scours.
• After cleaning, switch the plate on briefly to allow the moisture to evaporate.

Maintenance of the plates

Rub the plates with non-acidic oil (sewing machine oil) or with a protectant.

Troubleshooting table

If the appliance does not work properly, this does not always mean that it is defective. Try to deal with the problem yourself first by checking the points mentioned below or check for more information the website.

Problem Possible cause Solution
The hob or cooking zones cannot be switched on.	There is no power supply. Check the fuse for the device.
A slight smell is noticeable the first few times the hob is used.	The new appliance is heating up.	This is normal and will disappear once it has been used a few times. Heat a pan filled with water on each cooking zone for 30 minutes. Ventilate the kitchen.

What you need to consider

Attention

This appliance should only be installed by authorized service personnel or a qualified electrician and in accordance with the instructions in this manual and in accordance with applicable local regulations.

• The power rating and required mains voltage are shown on the rating plate at the back of the oven. Connection should take place according to national and local regulations.
• When the appliance does not have a connecting cable and plug, then it may be connected to the mains only by an approved installer.
• The seal between the hob and the work surface must be moisture-proof. The work surface must be absolutely level, as must the hob of course!
• If the work surface is tiled it could be necessary to use liquid silicone rubber instead of the sealing strip.
• Panels and furniture lining of the kitchen cabinet receiving the hob must be treated with temperature resistant adhesives (105°C), otherwise they might be discoloured or deformed because of inadequate temperature resistance.
• The walls and the worktop surrounding the appliance must be heat resistant up to at least 105 °C.
• A hob should not be positioned immediately above a refrigerator or freezer built-in below the worktop and not above a dishwasher, washing machine or dryer. If the hob has to be fitted above a refrigerator or freezer, ensure that the hob is well insulated.
• Bottom kitchen element must not be equipped with a drawer. If the kitchen element has a built-in horizontal shelf, it must be at a distance of not less than 15 cm from the bottom surface of the worktop. The space between the shelf and the cooktop must be empty and may not be used for storage of utensils.

• If wishing to make a direct connection to the mains, an omnipolar switch must be interposed with a minimum opening of 3 mm between the contacts and suited to the load indicated on the plate and conform to the regulations in force (the yellow/green ground conductor must not be interrupted by the switch). When the appliance has been installed, the omnipolar switch must be easily reachable.

Mounting

1. Place the hob in the cut out. Mark the location of the hob on the cooktop.
2. Remove the hob. Place the sealant on the line you marked. Make sure that the line centres the sealant. Ensure that the junctions overlap at the corners and no gap is left along the sealing material.
3. Place the hob in the cut out and fix in position using the brackets and screws. Adjust the position of the brackets depending on the thickness of the worktop and tighten the screws evenly. Carefully trim away any excess sealing material from around the appliance.
