ance, unless under supervision or in accordance with the instructions as communicated
to them by persons responsible for their safety.
• Persons with implanted devices, which support vital functions (eg, pacemaker, insulin
pump, or hearing aids) must ensure that these devices are not affected by the induction
hob (the frequency of the induction hob is 20-50 kHz).
• Once power is disconnected all settings and indications are erased. When electric power
is restored caution is advisable. If the cooking zones are hot, „H" residual heat indicator
will be displayed. Also child lock key will be displayed, as when the appliance is connect-
ed for the first time.

still hot.
• If the mains socket is near the cooking zone, make sure the cord does not touch any hot
areas.
• When cooking using oil and fat do not leave the appliance unattended, as there is a fire
hazard.

damage the cooking surface.
• Solid or liquid sugar, citric acid, salt or plastic must not be allowed to spill on the hot
cooking zone.
• If sugar or plastic accidentally fall on the hot cooking zone, do not turn off the hob and
scrape the sugar or plastic off with a sharp scraper. Protect hands from burns and injuries.
• When cooking on induction hob only use pots and pans with a flat base having no sharp
edges or burrs as these can permanently scratch the cooking surface.
• Induction hob cooking surface is resistant to thermal shock. It is not sensitive to cold nor
hot.
• Avoid dropping objects on the cooking surface. In some circumstances, point impacts
such as dropping a bottle of spices, may lead to cracks and chipping of the cooking
surface.

through damaged areas.
• If the cooking surface is cracked, switch off power to avoid the risk of electric shock.

tem. As a result it is recommended to use a partition (see Figure 2).
