■
Use only hob guards designed by the
manufacturer of the cooking appli-
ance or indicated by the manufactur-
er of the appliance in the instructions
for use as suitable or hob guards in-
corporated in the appliance. The use
of inappropriate guards can cause
accidents.
■
Always switch the hob off completely
after cooking.
Risk of injury!
This hob has sharp edges. Improper
handling can result in cut injuries.
■
Wear protective gloves when unpack-
ing and installing the hob.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
Improper use may damage the appli-
ance or cooking utensils.
■
Wipe the glass ceramic surface and
the base of the pots before use to
remove any dirt that may cause
scratches.
■
Do not push heavy pans across the
hob; this may scratch the glass ce-
ramic.
■
If possible, use only metal cookware
on the cooking zones. Glass is a poor
heat conductor. Because of this, ther-
mal stress and breakages may occur
when using glass cookware on the
hob.
■
Do not use any aluminium foil or plas-
tic containers to cook on the cooking
zones, as they can melt.
■
Immediately remove sugary or
starchy food particles and residues of
plastics or aluminium foil. Otherwise,
these may cause permanent and ir-
reparable damage to the hob.
■
Clean and maintain the hob regu-
larly with a special care product con-
taining a special impregnating oil for
hobs. Such products can be found in
specialist shops.
■
Do not use any harsh abrasive deter-
gents, scouring agents, abrasive pow-
der or steel sponges; they can scratch
the surface and damage the glass.
