SAFETY
■
Grains of sand may cause scratches that
cannot be removed.
• Only put pans with a clean and dry base
on the cooking surface. This prevents
lime stains or other stains that are
difficult to remove.
• Always pick pans up to move them.
• Do not use the hob as a worktop.
■
When you first connect the appliance to
the mains it will test itself automatically
and the displays will light briefly.
■
If you do not select a setting within
10 seconds the zone will switch itself off
automatically.
■
Cords to electrical appliances – e.g. a
mixer – may accidentally touch the
cooking zones.

SAFETY
What you should pay attention to
When installing the appliance
■
This appliance should only be connected
up by a registered installer.
■
Never open the casing of the appliance.
During use
■
This appliance has been designed for
domestic use. You should only use it for
cooking food.
■
The appliance is hot both during and after
use. Bear this in mind if young children
come anywhere near the appliance.
■
Do not place any objects on the touch
controls. Doing so will cause the hob to
switch off and an error code will appear.
■
Never leave an empty pan on a cooking
zone that is switched on. Do not allow the
pan to boil dry, either. Although the hob is
protected against overheating, the pan will
get very hot, which may damage it.
■
Do not use pans that are smaller than the
cooking zone. This will prevent food
remains ending up on the red-hot cooking
zone. Burnt-on food remains are difficult to
remove.
■
Grease and oil are flammable when
overheated. Stay near the cooker when
preparing dishes.
■
Damage arising from the use of unsuitable
pans or from boiling dry is excluded from
the guarantee.
■
The ceramic cooking surface is very strong
but not unbreakable. It may be cracked if,
for example, a spice jar or pointed object
falls on it.
■
Do not use the appliance if there are any
cracks or splits in it. Switch the appliance
off immediately. Take the plug out of the
socket and phone the service department.
■
Do not use aluminium foil, such as the trays
from ready-made meals, for cooking food in.
If aluminium foil melts on the cooking
surface, it cannot be removed.
