Operation

Using the appliance
This ceramic hob is equipped with
electronic sensor controls which react
to finger contact. For safety reasons, in
order to switch the appliance on, the
On/Off

sensor needs to be touched
for a little longer than the other sensors.
Each time a sensor control is activated,
an audible signal sounds.
When the hob is switched off, only the
printed sensor control symbols and
numbers on the keybank are visible.
When the hob is switched on, all the
other sensors light up as well. More
sensors light up when the hob is
switched on.
In order to set or alter a power level, the
cooking zones must be “active”. To
activate a cooking zone, touch the
sensor for selecting the relevant
cooking zone. The relevant cooking
zone indicator will begin to flash when
touched. While the indicator is flashing,
set or adjust the power level or set a
time.
Exception : If only one of the cooking
zones is in operation, you can alter the
power setting without activating the
cooking zone.

Malfunction due to dirty and/or
covered sensor controls.
If the sensor controls are dirty or
covered, this could cause them to
fail to react, to activate a function or
even to switch the appliance off
automatically (see “Safety features –
Safety switch-off”). Placing hot
cookware on the sensor controls/
indicators can damage the electronic
unit underneath.
Keep the sensor controls and
indicators clean.
Do not place anything over the
sensor controls or indicators.
Do not place hot cookware over the
sensor controls or indicators.
