Frequently Asked Questions - ZKT623LN ZANUSSI

How do I activate the child safety device on my Zanussi ZKT623LN hob?

To activate, switch on the hob, then within 10 seconds touch the + and - controls simultaneously for about 2 seconds. Release, then touch the + control again. L will appear in the displays for about 10 seconds confirming activation.

What does the residual heat indicator 'H' mean?

The letter 'H' appears in the display of a cooking zone that is still hot after use. It warns you that the zone is hot enough to cause burns. Do not touch the zone until the indicator goes out.

Why does my hob turn off automatically during cooking?

The hob has a safety cut-off feature. If a cooking zone is left on for a long time without changing the setting, or if liquid boils over and spills onto the controls, the hob will switch off automatically. Simply switch it back on using the ON/OFF control.

How do I clean the ceramic glass surface of my Zanussi hob?

Clean the surface when it is hand warm or cold. Use a damp cloth with a little washing-up liquid for light soil. For stubborn burnt-on food, use a glass scraper at an angle. Then apply a commercial ceramic glass cleaner like 'Vitroclen'. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

How do I use the dual cooking zone on the front left?

The front left cooking zone can be used in two sizes. To activate the larger outer heating circuit, touch the dual zone control (marked with a circle inside a circle). The control lamp will illuminate. To switch off the outer circuit, touch the same control again.

What should I do if the touch controls do not respond?

Check if the control panel is locked (child safety activated) or if it is covered by liquid or a wet cloth. Clean the surface and dry it. If displays show F, contact your local Service Force Centre.

Can I use pots and pans with aluminium or copper bases?

It is not recommended because they can leave metallic discolorations that are difficult to remove. Use pots with smooth, flat bases made of stainless steel, enamel, or similar materials that are suitable for ceramic hobs.

How do I switch off a single cooking zone?

Select the cooking zone by touching its control, then press the + and - controls simultaneously, or use the - control to reduce the setting to zero.

What is the power consumption of the Zanussi ZKT623LN hob?

The total connected load is 6.4 kW at 230 V. Individual zones: front left dual 750/2200 W, rear left 1200 W, front right 1200 W, rear right 1800 W.

Where can I find the rating plate and model number?

The rating plate is located on the base of the hob. It contains the model number (ZKT623LN), serial number, and electrical specifications. Note these down before installation as the plate is not visible after the hob is built in.

Operating instructions

General information

The cooking surface is made of proven ceramic glass and consists of 4 cooking zones. The rapid glowing cooking zones with the especially efficient radiant heating elements will considerably reduce the duration of heating up.

The cooking surface is pore-free and also insensitive to rapid changes in temperature. Pots can therefore be moved from a hot to a cold zone. When switching on a cooking zone you may hear a short buzz. That is a characteristic of all ceramic glass cooking zones and does not impair the function or the lifetime of the appliance. Always put pots and pans onto the cooking zone before switching on.

TOUCH-CONTROL sensor fields

To operate the TOUCH-CONTROL sensor fields, put your finger flat from top onto the desired field, until corresponding indicators will come on or go out, respectively until the desired function will be carried out.

Switching on the appliance

H. appears in the cooking zone display and - after cooling down.

● The cooking zones switch off as follows:

• setting 1 – 2 after 6 hours
• setting 3 – 4 after 5 hours
• setting 5 after 4 hours
• setting 6 – 9 after 1.5 hours

To re-set the cooking zones, if required, the appliance must be switched back on using the main switch ① ON/OFF.

Safety cut off due to a spillage

Liquids that boil over and spill onto the surface will cause the cooking zones to switch off.

The hob will also switch itself off if a wet cloth is placed on the control panel.

In either case the appliance must be switched back on, once the liquid or cloth has been removed, with the main switch ① ON/OFF for further use.

Application, Charts, Tips

Cooking and frying utensils

The better the pot or the pan, the better the boiling or frying result.

• You can recognize good quality pans by their base. The base should be as thick and as flat as possible.
• Rough bases (i.e. burrs and sharp edges) will scratch the ceramic glass surface.
• Utensils with aluminium and copper bases can leave behind metallic discolorations which can only be removed with difficulty or sometimes not at all. ● Saucepans and frying pans should not be smaller than the cooking zone, and preferably not more than 10–15 mm larger than the diameter of the cooking zone.
• When cold, pan bases normally curve slightly inwards (are concave). In no case should they curve outwards (be convex).
• When buying new pots or pans pay attention to the base diameter. Manufacturers often state the upper diameter of the edge of a dish.
• If you are using special cooking utensils like pressure cookers or a WOK, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
• Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan manufacturer. Ensure they are recommended for use on ceramic hobs.

General hints

● The bases should always be clean and dry. - To avoid scratching or damaging the ceramic glass surface, pots and pans should be moved on the hob by lifting them, and not by sliding. - Scratches can also be caused by grains of sand (e.g. originating from the previous washing of vegetables), drawn over the cooking surface with the pan, or by burrs and the rims of pan bases. - Use high sided pans for dishes with a lot of liquid, so that nothing boils over.

Energy consumption

To save energy, you should:

• Place pots and pans in position before switching on the cooking zone.
• Use only cooking and frying utensils with smooth, flat bases.

• Wherever possible, cover pots and pans with a lid.
• Never place pots or pans on cooking zones with a higher diameter.
• Because of wet or dirty cooking zones and pots, energy will be wasted.
• Switch off the cooking zone a few minutes before the end of the cooking time, in order to make use of the residual heat.
• When using pressure cookers, you can reduce the cooking time by up to 50%. As well as saving energy, more vitamins and minerals are retained in the food.

Chart: Boiling and frying

The setting position required for cooking processes is dependent on the quality of the pots and on the type and amount of the food.

Cleaning and care

Attention! Cleaners must not get onto the hot ceramic glass surface! After cleaning, all residues of cleaners must be removed with sufficient clean water, as they may be caustic when being reheated.

Never use aggressive or abrasive agents, such as oven sprays, stain or rust removers, scouring powder, or sponges with an abrasive effect.

Suitable cleaning materials are: clean cloth or household paper, hot water with detergent, suitable commercial cleaners and cleaning scrapers. Cleaning scrapers and ceramic glass cleaners are available from the expert trade and in markets for building material.

Ceramic glass surface

• Clean the ceramic glass surface after every use when it is hand warm or cold. This will avoid spills becoming burnt on.
• Remove scale and water marks, fat spots and metallic shimmering discoloration with a commercial ceramic glass cleaner such as Vitroclen.

Light soilage

● Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth, and a little washing up liquid. - Then rub dry with a clean cloth. No residues of cleaner must be left on the surface. - Once a week, thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass surface with a commercial ceramic glass cleaner such as "Vitroclen". Always ensure that the hob is dry after cleaning.

Stubborn soilage

● To remove food that has boiled over or burnt on spots, use a glass scraper. - Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface. Remove soiling by sliding the scraper.

Special soilage

Sugar

• Remove burnt-on sugar, melted plastics, aluminum foil immediately -- when they are still warm -- using a glass scraper, otherwise damage may occur. Warning! When using the cleaning scraper on the warm cooking zone, care should be taken. ● Afterwards clean the cooking surface normally. If the cooking zone and melted material has cooled down, reheat the cooking zone gently to aid the cleaning process.

Dark spots, decor damages

If aggressive cleaners or pans with abrasive bases are used, then the decor will take on an abraded appearance and dark spots will appear over time. These marks cannot be removed. However, they do not impair the functionality of the hob.

Scratches in the ceramic glass surface

Scratches in the ceramic glass surface resulting from burrs on a pan base or sand grains cannot be removed. However, they do not impair the function of the hob.

The hob frame

Do not allow vinegar, lemons or scale removers to come into contact with the hob frame, matt spots will appear.

• Clean the hob frame with water and a little washing-up liquid.
• Soften dried dirt with a wet cloth. Then wipe off and rub dry.

What to do...

If the hob does not function correctly, please carry out the following checks, as it may be something you can remedy yourself.

...if the cooking zones will not function?

Check, whether

• the main fuse has failed. ●the appliance is correctly switched on.
• the safety cutoff has operated. ●the control lamps of the control panel are lighting. ● the corresponding cooking zone is switched on.
• the cooking zones are set for cooking as desired.

...if cooking zones cannot be switched on/off?

Check, whether

●the control panel is locked. - a period of more than 10 seconds has elapsed between pressing the on/off switch and selecting a cooking zone. - the touch controls are entirely or partly covered by liquid or by a wet cloth.

...if the whole indicator section for residual heat, except, will fail all of a sudden?

Check, whether

● The ON/OFF touch control was accidentally touched. - The touch controls are entirely or partly covered by liquid or by a wet cloth. - The safety cutoff has operated. ● There was a power cut for a short while.

...if the displays suddenly go out?

Check whether

● the fuse has failed. ● there has been a power cut. - The setting operation was correctly made.

...if after cooking zone switch-off the display will not show - or H. for residual heat?

Check whether

- The cooking zone has only been in operation for a short while, and is therefore not hot enough.

...if a cooking zone cannot be switched on?

Check whether

● the child-safety is switched on.

...if all displays (inclusive of residual heat indicator H) go out during cooking?

- The overheating protection of the electronic controls has blocked the use of the hob. Once the cooking zone has cooled down it can be operated again.

...if the display flashes?

If the hob has been used at high setting for a long period of time, the overheating protection of the electronic control will become active and the front left cooking zone will become inoperable. This occurs to prevent damage to the electronic controls. The front left cooking zone will operate again once the appliance has cooled down and is no longer in the display. The front right and rear cooking zones can still be operated during this time.

...if the display lights up?

Check whether

the touch controls are entirely or partly covered or contaminated by liquid or by a wet cloth.

Clean the ceramic glass surface and wipe it dry.

If after switching the appliance back on, the display still shows F. Contact your local Service Force Centre.

If after carrying out the above checks your appliance is still faulty, disconnect from the mains supply and contact your local Service Force Centre.

In guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been made as the engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical breakdown. Please note that proof of purchase is required for any in-guarantee service calls.

...the cooking zone automatically switches back to setting 7 during cooking?

Because the temperature is too high, the electronic control thermal cutoff has triggered an automatic reduction of the cooking setting. You can increase the cooking setting again, after the cooking zone has cooled down. If you try to increase the setting again and display flashes, this means that it is not yet possible to carry out the desired increase, because the appliance is still too hot.

Installation instructions

Hints on safety

This appliance must be installed and connected by qualified personnel. Please observe this instruction, otherwise the warranty will not cover any damage which may occur.

During the installation and in case of a service failure the appliance must not be connected to the mains.

The general rules for the operation of electric appliances, the provisions by the competent electricity supply board and the specifications of these instructions for installation have to be strictly adhered to.

Built-in in the kitchen worktop

Electrical safety is to be ensured by professional installation.

Protection against accidental contact according to the regulations set by VDE or other local authorities must be ensured by correct installation of the appliances. The same refers to the back of the appliance which, even in case of built-in solutions away from the wall, must not be freely accessible.

Built-in cupboards have to be located and fastened in a way that they are stable.

Note down the data from the rating plate of your appliance in the printed rating plate form in this manual. These numbers are needed in case of service calls.

Installation dimensions

The opening in the cabinet must correspond to the standard dimensions. Then necessary information can be found in the dimensional sketch.

The separation between the lower surface of the hob and the part of the furniture below it must be at least 20 mm.

The lateral separation between the sides of the hob and the cabinet must be at least 55 mm, and must be at least 55 mm from the rear panel.

With regard to the protection against overheating of surrounding furniture surfaces, this appliance corresponds to type Y. This appliance or the built-in cupboard for the appliance respectively may be located with the rear wall and one side wall to whatever high walls or furniture respectively, and with the other side to another appliance or furniture of the same height as this appliance.

Hob installation

• Cut out the worktop with the cut-out size as stated. The tolerance sizes must not be exceeded. Saw exactly at the marking line. Recommendation: Mark the cut-out with a steel needle. Cover-glue the line in order to avoid splintering of the coating when cutting. Clean the worktop in the cut-out section. With tiled worktops, the grooves within the contact area of the cooking area must completely be filled up with groove material.
• Then fasten the catch springs with screws in the cut-out at the marked position. The distortion of the springs serves as a stop on the worktop.
• With natural, artificial stone, or ceramic plate, the springs can be glued in with special adhesive (synthetic resin, two-component adhesive, etc.).
• The cooking area is lowered from the top into the cut-out section, centered and firmly pressed on until the springs will catch.
• Check the seal in the supporting frame for perfect seating and gapless support. Please do not apply further silicone sealing matter as this will complicate the removal of the hob if servicing is necessary.

Electrical connections

Before connecting the appliance, check that the voltage quoted on the rating plate - that is, the nominal voltage of the appliance - corresponds to the available mains voltage. The rating plate can be found on the lower housing of the ceramic glass hob.

The mains connection must be carried out by an expert electrician. The VDE regulations and the valid prescriptions by the local power supply boards have to be complied with.

- Prior to connection, it should be checked whether the voltage stated on the rating plate—i.e., the nominal voltage of the appliance and of the oven/control box—is identical with the prevailing mains voltage. The rating plate is located on the lower housing of the hob.

- The heating element voltage amounts to 230V~. The appliance will also perfectly perform with the former mains voltage of 220V~.

- The mains connection must be carried out in a way that an all-pole insulating device is existing with a contact opening of at least 3mm, e.g., LS-automatism, earth-leakage circuit-breaker or fuse.

- A wire of type H05VV-F or of higher rating is to be used as supply cable.

- The mains terminal is located in the bottom of the appliance behind a covering slide. It can be opened with a screwdriver (pict.).

- According to existing mains voltage, the appliance has to be connected in correspondence with the diagram of connecting possibilities. The bridges of the terminal board are to be changed accordingly, if need be.

- The protective conductor is to be connected to terminal ⏻. The protective conductor must be longer than live leads.

- The cable connections have to be connected as shown and the terminal screws be firmly tightened.

- Afterwards, the supply cable has to be secured by strain relief device and the covering slide must be closed by firmly pressing down until it engages.

Priorities first: user should remove any existing labels and protective film from the ceramic glass plate or the frame of the hole.

After connecting the electrical supply, all cooking zones should be briefly switched on one after the other at their maximum power, in order to test whether they are operational.
