These damages result from improper maintenance of the heating plate and are not covered by the warranty.
These are not technical problems of the unit.

Stains

Burnt remains of sugar or food with
high sugar content.

Colouring

Metallic-gloss colouring caused by the
use of unsuitable cleaning agents or
abrasions from the bottom of cooking
utensils.

Scratches

Scratches caused by grains of salt,
sugar or sand or by the coarse
bottom of utensils.

Wear of the decoration

Wear caused by the use of unsuitable
cleaning agents.

utensil and switch off the heating plate. If the unit does not heat after cooling down, contact an authorised service

centre.

Hot cooking utensil

• Do not put hot pots or pans on the control panel or the frame or edge of the heating plate. Otherwise damage

could occur.

Salt, sugar and sand

• Salt, sugar and grains of sand (coming e.g. from cleaning vegetables) could scratch the heating plate. Do not use

the heating plate as a work area or a side table!

Hard and sharp objects

• If a hard and/or sharp object falls on the heating plate, the plate can be damaged. Do not place such objects

above the heating plate.

Overboiled food

• Sugar, as well as food with high sugar content, damages the heating plate when coming into contact with it.

Immediately remove overboiled food of this kind using a glass scraper.

WARNING! A glass scraper is sharp.

Foils and plastic

• Aluminium foils and plastic utensils melt down, when on a hot hotzone.
• Protective foil for cookers is not suitable for the heating plate.

Examples of possible damages

The following damages do not negatively affect the function or performance of the heating plate.

IDV2660

Cracks in the glass-ceramic plate

•  If any cracks, fissures or breaks appear on the glass-ceramic plate, there is a risk of electric shock.
•  Immediately switch off the unit. Disconnect the unit from mains by switching off the respective circuit breaker.
•  Contact an authorized service centre.

Hotzone heats, but the indicator does not work

• If a hotzone heats but its indicator does not work, switch off the hotzone. There is a risk of burning.
• Contact an authorised service centre.

Do not lay any metal things on the induction heating plate

• Do not leave any lids or other metal things on the induction heating plate.
• In case of accidental switch-on of the unit these things could heat very quickly and cause burning.

Cooling fan

• The cooling fan is under the heating plate.
• WARNING! If the heating plate is located above a drawer, the drawer must not contain any small objects or

papers, as the fan could suck them in, which could damage the fan or negatively affect the cooling of the unit.

• No aluminium foils or flammable materials (e.g. sprays) may be stored in the drawer or near the heating plate.

Danger of explosion!

• The gap between the content of the drawer and the fan should be at least 2 cm.

Bottoms of pots and pans

• Cooking with induction is based on the generation of heat utilising the magnetic properties of material. That is

why the material of the utensil must contain iron. Check using a magnet, whether the utensil is magnetic.

• The bottom diameter of the utensil used for induction cooking may be smaller or equal to that of the indicated

hotzone. The minimum diameter of the bottom is 80 mm.

• Do not use utensils with peeled enamel. High temperature occurs at the point of damage to the enamel, which

heats the corresponding spot on the heating plate. There is a risk of damage to the heating plate.

• Do not use pots with bulging or irregular bottoms or 1), otherwise the cooking effectiveness would be

reduced.

Fig. 1

• Coarse bottoms of pots and pans could scratch the glass-ceramic plate. Therefore check the cooking utensil.
• A cooking utensil on the switched-on heating plate must contain liquid or food. The heating plate is equipped

with an internal safety system against overheating. However, an empty utensil can heat so quickly that the
automatic switch-off system does not manage to react and the utensil may reach very high temperatures. This
could damage both the bottom of the utensil and the glass-ceramic plate. If this happens, do not touch the
