1 Safety warnings
7
▪
Pots with pure copper or aluminium
bases should not be used for cooking
as they can leave behind traces that
can be difficult to clean. If the traces
are not removed immediately after
cooking with a suitable cleaning agent,
they can be permanently burned on and
therefore permanently ruin the visual
appearance of the appliance.
▪
Sliding pans and cookware across the
glass ceramic causes scratches. This
can be largely prevented by lifting pans
and cookware up and then placing
them down in position.
▪
The hob is designed to be used – signs
of use, such as scratches or the wear
and tear from pans and cookware, are
normal. The more intensively it is used,
the greater the signs of use; however,
the appliance remains in perfect work-
ing order and therefore does not give a
right of complaint. Safety is guaranteed
at all times.
▪
There is no such thing as completely
scratch-proof glass; scratches can even
develop on sapphire glass, which is
used in watches. The glass ceramic
used is of the best quality available on
the market.
Note on use
▪
Tests have shown that under normal cir-
cumstances there is no risk to cardiac
pacemaker users. If, as the user of a
cardiac pacemaker (or a hearing aid or
another type of implant), you would like
to be reassured that using the appli-
ance does not pose a risk, you are ad-
vised to consult a competent medical
authority.
▪
If the appliance is visibly damaged, do
not use it. Contact our Customer Ser-
vices.
▪
If the appliance is not functioning prop-
erly, disconnect it from the power sup-
ply immediately.
▪
If the mains cable of the appliance is
damaged, it must be replaced by Cus-
tomer Services in order to avoid hazard.
▪
Caution: Accessible parts may become
hot when used with cooking appliances.
▪
Do not flambé food next to the range
hood.
▪
Do not leave the appliance unattended
when deep-frying on the cooking sur-
face. The cooking oil in the deep-frying
appliance could overheat and catch
fire. Constantly monitor the temperature
of the cooking oil, keeping it below the
temperature at which it can catch fire.
Change the cooking oil regularly – dirty
oil catches fire more easily than clean
oil.
▪
Do not operate the individual cooking
zones of the cooking surface without a
pan or with an empty pan on them so
as to avoid damaging the appliance or
the kitchen fittings through a build-up of
heat.
▪
Ensure there is adequate ventilation
when the extractor fan is on so as to
avoid creating a disturbing underpres-
sure in the kitchen and to achieve op-
timal air extraction.
▪
Avoid a cross-current of air, which
could blow the cooking vapours over
the cooking surface.
▪
If other appliances – fired by gas or
other fuels – are being used at the
same time, ensure that there is a suffi-
cient supply of fresh air. This does not
apply to air recirculation appliances.
▪
If other firing systems are being used at
the same time (e.g. wood, gas, oil or
coal fired heating appliances), safe op-
eration is only possible providing a
room negative pressure of 4 Pa
(0.04 mbar) is not exceeded at the loc-
ation of the appliance. Risk of toxic
fumes! An adequate flow of fresh air
must be guaranteed e.g. via non-clos-
able openings in doors or windows and
in combination with an air-intake/ex-
haust-air wall box or by other technical
means.
