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.
Only the printed On/Off
symbol is
visible when the hob is switched off.
More sensors light up when the hob is
switched on.
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.
