SAFETY GUIDELINES
We have designed this cooking hob for use by
private persons in their homes.
These cooking hobs are meant to be used
exclusively for cooking beverages and food-
stuffs and do not contain any asbestos-based
materials.

A cooking zone can remain hot for several
minutes after use.
An ""H
H"" is displayed during this period.
Avoid touching the hot areas during this time.

burn risk.
Following extended power outage, another
light display may appear, it can be switched

Child safety device
Your hob is equipped with a child safety devi-
ce that locks its operation after use or during
cooking (See "Using the Child Safety Device"
section).
Do not forget to unlock it before using the
hob again.

For users of pacemakers and acti-
ve implants
The functioning of the hob conforms to cur-
rent electromagnetic interference standards
and thus is in total compliance with legal
requirements (89/336/CEE directives).
In order to avoid interference between your
cooking hob and a pacemaker, your pacema-
ker must be designed and programmed in
compliance with the regulations that apply to
it.
Consequently, we can only guarantee that our
own product is compliant.
With regard to the compliance of the pace-
maker or any potential incompatibility, you
can obtain information from the manufacturer
or your attending physician.
Electrical Danger
Ensure that the power cables of any
electrical appliances plugged in close to
the hob are not in contact with the cooking
zones.
If a crack appears in the glass worktop,
immediately disconnect your appliance to
avoid the risk of electric shock.
To do this, remove the fuses or use the cir-
cuit breaker.
Do not use your hob until you have repla-
ced the glass worktop.
Warning
Do not look directly into cook zone ha-
logen lamps
