General instructions
NEVER LEAVE THE SWITCHED ON HOB UNATTENDED.
BE AWARE OF HOW RAPIDLY THE COOKING ZONES HEAT UP. DO NOT PLACE EMPTY
SAUCEPANS ON THE HEAT. DANGER OF OVERHEATING.
FAT AND OIL CAN CATCH FIRE IF THEY OVERHEAT. YOU ARE THEREFORE RECOMMENDED
NOT TO LEAVE THE HOB WHILE PREPARING FOODS CONTAINING OIL OR FAT. IF FAT OR OIL
CATCHES FIRE, NEVER PUT WATER ON IT. COVER THE PAN AND SWITCH OFF THE COOKING
ZONE.
THE GLASS CERAMIC SURFACE IS HIGHLY RESISTANT TO IMPACTS. HOWEVER, DO NOT
ALLOW HARD, SOLID OBJECTS TO FALL ON THE COOKING SURFACE AS THEY MAY CAUSE IT
TO BREAK IF THEY ARE SHARP.
THE GLASS CERAMIC COOKING SURFACE MUST NOT BE USED AS A SURFACE FOR PLACING
OBJECTS.
IF IT BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN OFF THE HOB DUE TO A SENSOR FAULT IN THE
CONTROL, IMMEDIATELY DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AND CALL TECHNICAL
SUPPORT.
BE CAREFUL WHEN CONNECTING ADDITIONAL ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES. CONNECTION
CABLES MUST NOT COME INTO CONTACT WITH HOT COOKING ZONES.
NEVER PLACE FLAMMABLE, READILY EXPLOSIVE OR DEFORMABLE OBJECTS DIRECTLY
UNDERNEATH THE HOB.
DO NOT USE SEALED TINS OR CONTAINERS ON THE APPLIANCE. OVERPRESSURE MAY
OCCUR INSIDE THE CONTAINERS DURING COOKING, CREATING A DANGER OF EXPLOSION.
IF THE APPLIANCE IS INSTALLED ON BOATS OR IN CARAVANS, DO NOT USE IT AS A ROOM
HEATER.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or things caused by non-
observance of the above prescriptions or by interference with any part of the appliance or by the
use of non-original spare parts.
