General information on the hob
• Do not place empty pots and pans on cooking zones which have
been switched on. Avoid boiling the pots dry as there is a risk of
the pots overheating!
• Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Always
supervise the preparation of food with fats and oils. Never
extinguish ignited fats and oils with water! Put the lid on the pan
and switch off the cooking zone.
• The glass ceramic surface of the hob is extremely robust. You
should, however, avoid dropping hard objects onto the glass
ceramic hob. Sharp objects which fall onto your hob might break
it.
• There is a risk of electric shocks if the glass ceramic hob
develops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other kind.
Immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect the fuse
immediately and call Customer Service.
• Take care when working with home appliances! Connecting
cables must not come into contact with hot cooking zones.
• The glass ceramic hob should not be used as a storage area.
• Do not put aluminium foil or plastic onto the cooking zones.
Keep everything which could melt, such as plastics, foil and in
particular sugar and sugary foods away from hot cooking zones.
Use a special glass scraper to immediately remove any sugar
from the ceramic hob (when it is still hot) in order to avoid
damaging the hob.
• Do not place combustible, volatile or heat deformable objects
directly underneath the hob.
• Never use the cooking zones to heat up unopened tins of food or
packaging made of material compounds. The power supply may
cause them to burst!
• Never flambé under the cooker hood - the fat in the filter can
ignite!
• Avoid repeated burning of contaminations.
