Do not place metal objects such as cut-
■
lery and lids on the glass ceramic hob.

Always switch the glass ceramic hob off
■
completely after cooking! Do not exclu-
sively rely on the automatic pot recog-
nition.

pliance may ignite easily!
Do not leave temperature-sensitive,
■

unintentionally they may become mis-
shapen or ignite.
If you are preparing foods in oil, fat or
■
using alcohol, do not leave the hob unsu-
pervised! The foods may ignite.
