Using the ceramic hob

Before first use

IMPORTANT: You should clean the ceramic hob surface (see "Cleaning and maintenance" section).

• You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on the heating elements during transit.
• Do not burn off more than one zone at once.
• You must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on each zone as you burn it off.

Touch controls

• All operations are performed by means of the touch controls that can be found on the control panel.
• Each touch control has a visual display that corresponds to it.
• Every time you press a touch control, an acoustic signal will sound.

- IMPORTANT: If you cancel the timer setting, the selected zone will still remain on, therefore you will need to turn the zone off manually.

Hob guidelines

• The first few times the hob top is used, it may give off an acrid, burning smell. This smell will disappear completely with repeated use.
• The hob surface is fitted with cooking areas of different diametre and power.
• The positions where the heat will radiate from are clearly marked on the hob top. The saucepans must be positioned exactly on these zones for efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the same diametre as the cooking zone that they are being used on.
• You should not use saucepans with rough bottoms, as this can scratch the ceramic surface.
  Before use, make sure that the bottoms of the saucepans are clean and dry.
• When cold, the bottom of the pans should be slightly concave, as they expand when hot and lie flat on the surface of the hob. This will allow the heat to transfer more easily.
• The best thickness for the bottom of the pans is 2 - 3 mm of enamelled steel and 4 - 6 mm for stainless steel with sandwich type bottoms.
• If these rules are not followed, then there will be a great loss of heat and energy. Heat not absorbed by the saucepan, will spread to the hob, frame and surrounding cabinets.
• Preferably cover pans with a lid to permit cooking at a lower heat.
• Always cook vegetables and potatoes, etc. in as little water to reduce cooking times.
• Food or liquid that has high sugar content may damage the hob top if it comes into contact with the ceramic hob surface. Any spillages should be wiped up immediately, however this may not prevent the hob surface from becoming damaged.

- IMPORTANT: The ceramic hob surface is tough; however it is not unbreakable and can be damaged. Especially if pointed or hard objects are allowed to fall on it with some force.

- DO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN OR CRACKED. YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE BAUMATIC CUSTOMER CARE DEPARTMENT IMMEDIATELY.

Cleaning and maintenance

My appliance isn't working correctly

• The cooking zones are not functioning or will not switch on.
  * It has been more than 10 seconds since the appliance was switched on. You should switch the appliance on again, using the ON/OFF button.
  * The safety lock has been switched on (see the "Locking the hob top" section for information on how to turn off the safety lock).
  * Several cooking zone selection buttons have been pressed at once. You should only touch one cooking zone selection button at once.
  * The safety cut out has been triggered. Press the ON/OFF button (1) to reset the appliance.

* Check that the mains electrical supply to the appliance is correct and working. Check the mains fuse.

- The residual heat indicator has not come on after I have switched a cooking zone off.

* The cooking zone has only been turned on for a short period of time; therefore it did not go above 60°C.

* IMPORTANT: If the cooking zone does appear to be hotter than 60°C and the residual heat indicator has not come on, you should call the Baumatic Customer Care Department.

○ A humming sound is heard when a cooking zone is selected.

* This is normal; the sound will disappear when the zone heats up.

- The cooking zones have become discoloured

* This maybe caused by burnt on remnants of food. This will not affect the working of the appliance. However you should make sure that the cleaning instructions are being followed regularly.

○ Only two of the zones on my hob are working

* You should recheck that the terminal screws are all fully tightened between the links.
