Installing the Induction Cooktop
• Place the induction cooktop on a stable and leveled surface.
• Never place the unit on a fl ammable surface (e.g. table cloth, carpet, etc.).
• Do not block the ventilation slots of the cooktop. This may overheat the unit. Keep
the unit at a minimum distance of 2 to 4 inches from walls or other items.
• Do not place the induction cooktop next to devices or objects which react
sensitively to magnetic fi elds (e.g. radios, TVs, cassette recorders, etc.).
• Do not place induction units next to open fi res, heaters or other sources of heat.
• Make sure that the power cord is not damaged or squashed beneath the induction
cooktop.
• Make sure that the power cord does not come into contact with sharp edges and/
or hot surfaces.
• Prior to connecting the cooktop, check whether the voltage indicated on the
rating plate corresponds to the voltage supply in your home. A wrong connection
may lead to grave damage of the unit and injury to persons.
• Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or
other hot liquids. You must never move the induction cooktop during cooking or
with hot cookware on top of it.
• Persons with a pacemaker should keep a minimum distance of 24 inches from the
cooktop while it is in operation.
• In the event that damage to the unit is observed, even if it is only a small
crack on the glass surface, disconnect the induction cooktop from the power
supply immediately and contact our customer service department by calling
