Safety instructions
for connection and function
■
The mains connection, maintenance and repair jobs should only be carried
out by an authorised technician in accordance with the applicable safety
standards. Work which has been improperly carried out can endanger your
safety.
■
The surfaces of heating- and cooking zones become hot during operation.
Therefore: Always keep children away.
for the cooking area
■
Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. You should therefore
cook food involving the use of fats and oils, e.g. chipped potatoes, only un-
der supervision. Never extinguish fats or oils with water! Place a lid on the
pan, switch off the cooking zone and take the pan off the hot cooking zone.
■
If cracks, fractures, or any other defects appear in your glass-ceramic cook-
ing area, do not use your appliance. Unplug or otherwise disconnect your
appliance from the mains supply and call our service centre.
■
If the cooking area cannot be switched off due to a defect in the sensor
control immediately disconnect your appliance and call the service centre.
■
Be careful when working with additional appliances! The connection leads
must not come into contact with the hot cooking zones.
■
The glass ceramic cooking area should not be used as a storage area.
■
Do not place combustible or inflammable objects upon the cooking top
which might be dangerous in case of unintentional switching on.
■
Do not place any inflammable or combustible items on the hob since there
is a risk of burns or damage if the hob is switched on unintentionally.
■
Never use the cooking zones without cookware. Never use the appliance to
heat rooms!
■
Never put aluminium foil or plastic on top of the cooking zones. Substances
that melt, for example plastic, foils and especially sugar and food with a
high sugar content are to be kept away from the hot cooking zone. In order
to avoid damaging, sugar, while still hot, should immediately be scraped off
the cooking area with a scraper.
■
Avoid repeated burning of stains and boiling over.
■
Chalk deposits may damage the cooking area.
■
If you have pets in your flat, who might reach the cooking top, activate the
child-proof unit.
Before first use
Remove packaging and moving parts. Before first use the cooking area should
be cleaned with a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid.
The cooking area is insensitive to temperature shocks (cold and hot) and also
extremely robust.
■
Avoid dropping sharp objects onto the cooking area. Pointed objects falling
onto your cooking area might break it.
■
Please read through the cleaning and care instructions. Be especially careful
to keep the sensor keys clean since soiling could be mistaken for finger
contact by the appliance. Never put anything (pans, tea towels etc.) onto
the sensor keys! If food boils over onto the sensor keys, we advice you to
activate the emergency switch.
■
You might hear a humming sound from the heating when switching on the
appliance. This is due to technical reasons and has no influence on quality
and functioning of your appliance.
■
Hot pans should not cover the the sensor keys, otherwise the appliance
switches itself off automatically.
Use of the cooking zones
Read the safety instructions!
After initial connection and after a power failure the abbreviations “
CAL
” ap-
pears briefly in the LED displays. Then rotating circles are displayed. This
means that the sensors are being checked in a self-test and at the same time
the button sensitivity reset.
Acknowledge this display by touching the Off-sensor. Provided that no objects
are lying on he sensors, these symbols are switched off immediately. Other-
wise remove objects, switch off lighting (if on) and disconnect the cooking zone
again briefly from the mains (fuse).
Important:
There must be no objects on the sensors while the sensor sensitivity is being
set. Extreme lighting shining on the buttons, such as direct sunlight or bright
halogen lights, is to be avoided.
Switch on the cooking area
Press the sensor-button for ap-
prox. 2 seconds. The LED-display
above the sensor lights up and the
appliance is in operation (stand-by
mode).
The stand-by mode automatically switches itself off,
– if no cooking zone is activated within 20 minutes (after 10 seconds an
acustic signal indicates that the appliance switches itself off after
another 10 seconds)
or
– if the appliance is not used 1 minute after starting operation.
