cooking zone. If cookware is not detected on a cooking
zone, place this on the cooking zone with the next
smallest diameter.
4.1 Size and characteristics of the cookware
To correctly detect the cookware, take the size and the
material of the cookware into consideration. All cook-
ware bases must be perfectly flat and smooth.
You can use Cookware test to check whether your
cookware is suitable. You can find more information
about this under
Cookware
Materials
Properties
Recommended cook-
ware
Stainless steel cookware in a sandwich
design that distributes the heat well.
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be
detected easily.
Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelled
steel, cast iron or special induction cookware
made of stainless steel.
This cookware heats up quickly and ensures
that it can be detected easily.
Suitable
The base is not fully ferromagnetic.
If the ferromagnetic area is smaller than the
base of the cookware, only the area that is
ferromagnetic heats up. As a result, the heat
is not distributed evenly.
Cookware bases with aluminium content.
These reduce the ferromagnetic area, which
means that less power is emitted to the
cookware. This cookware may not be suffi-
ciently detected or may not be detected at
all, and therefore does not heat sufficiently.
Not suitable
Cookware made from normal thin steel,
glass, clay, copper or aluminium.
Notes
¡
Do not use adapter plates between the hob and the
cookware.
¡
Do not heat up empty cookware and do not use
cookware with a thin base, as this may become very
hot.
5 Installation and connection
You can find out where and how best to install your ap-
pliance here. You will also learn how to connect your
appliance to the power supply.
5.1 Electrical connection
The appliance must be connected to the mains by a li-
censed expert. You must comply with the requirements
of your electricity supplier.
¡
Your appliance comes with the enclosed cable for
permanently connecting it to the mains electricity
supply. In the event of damage, never remove the
cable from the appliance or replace it with another
cable (with or without plug).
¡
If the power cord of this appliance is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer, the manufac-
turer's Customer Service or a similarly qualified per-
son in order to prevent any risk.
¡
Any damage arising from the appliance being con-
nected incorrectly will invalidate the warranty.
Information on the electrical connection by the
installer:
¡
If the plug is not accessible following installation, an
all-pole isolating unit with a contact clearance of at
least 3 mm must be available on the installation
side. This is not necessary if the appliance is con-
nected via a plug that is accessible to the user.
¡
Electrical safety: The cooker corresponds to safety
class I and may only be used in conjunction with a
safety earth terminal.
¡
To connect the appliance, use H 05 VV-F cables or
other equivalent cables.
Important information about the electrical
connection
Note the following information and ensure that:
WARNING ‒ Risk of electric shock!
There is a risk of electric shock if you touch live com-
ponents.
▶
Hold the mains plug with dry hands only.
▶
Never pull out the mains plug from the socket while
the appliance is in operation.
▶
Pull out the power cable directly at the plug and
never by pulling the power cable as this may be-
come damaged.
¡
Fit the mains plug and socket together.
¡
The mains plug can be accessed at all times.
¡
The cross section of the cable is sufficient.
¡
The mains cable is not kinked, crushed, modified or
severed.
¡
If required, the mains cable must only be replaced
by a qualified electrician. A replacement mains
cable is available from the after-sales service.
¡
Do not use any multiple plugs or multi-connectors
and extension cords.
