You should preferably use cookware with a flat base
because uneven cookware bases impair the heat sup-
ply.
No cookware/cookware of an unsuitable size
If you do not place cookware on the selected cooking
zone or the cookware is made of an unsuitable mater-
ial or is not the right size for the cooking zone, the dis-
play for the cooking zone flashes. To make the display
go out, place a suitable item of cookware on the cook-
ing zone. If you do not place a suitable item of cook-
ware on the cooking zone within 90 seconds, it auto-
matically switches off.
Empty cookware or cookware with a thin base
Do not heat empty cookware and do not use cookware
with a thin base. The hob is equipped with an internal
safety system. However, empty cookware may heat up
so quickly that the "Automatic switch-off" function does
not respond in good time and an excessive temperat-
ure is reached. As a result, the base of the cookware
may melt and damage the glass plate. In this case, do
not touch the cookware and switch off the cooking
zone. If the cooking zone no longer works after cooling
down, contact the technical after-sales service.
Cookware detection
Each cooking zone has a minimum limit for the cook-
ware detection and this depends on the ferromagnetic
diameter and the material of the base of the cookware.
Therefore, use the cooking zone that best corresponds
to the diameter of the pan base.

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

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.
¡
The earthing system is correctly installed.
¡
If using a residual current device, only use one that
bears the mark . The presence of this mark is the
only way to be sure that it fulfils all the applicable
regulations.
¡
The mains cable does not come into contact with
heat sources.
5.2 Setting up the appliance
