SAFETY HINTS
• Before you switch the hob on, make
sure you know which knob controls the
required cooking zone. We advise you
to set the pan over the cooking zone
before switching it on.
• Do not use pots and pans with rough
bases (pay attention to cookware made
of cast-iron). Rough bases can damage
the glass surface of the hob (scratches).
• Always ensure that the base of your
saucepan is clean and dry before plac-
ing on the hob.
• Pots with aluminium bottoms may leave
silver streaks or spots on the hob.
• Do not leave wet or damp lids on the
hob.
• The glass-ceramic surface and pans
must be clean. Carefully eliminate any
food remains (especially containing
sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a cleans-
ing agent.
• Pan handles should never stand out
beyond the kitchen worktop, as there is
a great danger of knocking the pan
over.
This will also ensure that children
cannot reach them.
•
Do not use the hob if the glass sur-
face is broken or cracked in any way.
Please disconnect the hob from the
mains and contact the after-sales
service.
• Do not lean over the cooking plate
when in use.
• Do not lay cooking foil or plastic materi-
als on the ceramic surface when it is
hot.
• Remember that the surface remains hot
for a long time (about 30 min.) after the
cooking plate has been switched off.
• Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
• Never use the glass surface for storage.
