ATTENTION!
A fan is located on the underside of this hob.
▶
If a drawer is located on the underside of the hob,
do not store any small or pointed objects, paper or
tea towels in it. These objects may be sucked in
and damage the fan or impair the cooling.
▶
There must be a clearance of at least 2 cm between
the contents of the drawer and the fan entry point.
3 Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less energy.
Select the cooking zone to match the size of your
pan. Centre the cookware on the hob.
Always place items of cookware inside the usable
area of the cooking surface.
Tip:
Cookware manufacturers often give the upper
diameter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the
base diameter.
¡
Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cook-
ing zones consume a lot of energy.
Cover saucepans with suitable lids.
¡
Cooking without a lid consumes considerably more
energy.
Lift lids as infrequently as possible.
¡
When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.
Use a glass lid.
¡
You can see into the pan through a glass lid
without having to lift it.
Use pots and pans with flat bases.
¡
Uneven bases increase energy consumption.
Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food.
¡
Large items of cookware containing little food need
more energy to heat up.
Cook with only a little water.
¡
The more water that is contained in the cookware,
the more energy is required to heat it up.
Turn down to a lower power level early on.
¡
If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,
you will waste energy.

4 Suitable cookware
Cookware that is suitable for induction cooking must
have a ferromagnetic base. This means that the cook-
ware must be magnetic and be the recommended size.
The hob uses the ferromagnetic diameter and material
of the base of the cookware to automatically detect the
position, size and shape of the cookware being used.
Follow the cookware manufacturer's instructions. Cookware with a base measuring 90 to 340 mm in dia-
meter is suitable for use.
4.1 Size and characteristics of the cookware
To be able correctly detect the cookware, you must
take the size and the material of the cookware into con-
sideration. All cookware bases must be perfectly flat
and smooth.
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 distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be
detected.
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.
