Safety

The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted technical stand-
ards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, as manufacturers we 
also believe it is our responsibility to familiarise you with the following safety 
instructions.

Electrical Safety

The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be carried 
out by qualified personnel.

Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved service 
engineers. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury 
or serious malfunctioning. If your appliance needs repairing, please con-
tact your local Service Force Centre.

Please follow these instructions, otherwise the warranty will not cover any 
damage that may occur.

Flush-mounted appliances may only be operated following installation in 
suitable installation cabinets and workplaces which conform to the rele-
vant standards. This ensures sufficient protection against contact for elec-
trical units as required by the VDE [Association of German Electrical 
Engineers].

If your appliance malfunctions or if fractures, cracks or splits appear:

switch off all cooking zones,

disconnect the hob from the electricity supply.

Child Safety

The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always keep 
small children away from the appliance.

Safety During Use

This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the 
home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.

Do not use the hob to heat the room.

Take care when plugging electric appliances into mains sockets near the 
hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot surface.

Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise cooking 
when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).

Switch off the cooking zones after use.
