Preventing material damage

ATTENTION!
Rough pot and pan bases will scratch the ceramic.

• Check your cookware.

Boiling pans dry may damage cookware or the appliance.

• Never place empty pans on a heated hotplate or allow to boil dry.

Incorrectly positioned cookware can cause the appliance to overheat.

• Never place hot pots or pans on the controls or the hob surround.

Damage can occur if hard or pointed objects fall onto the hob.

• Do not let hard or pointed objects fall onto the hob.

Non heat-resistant materials will melt on heated hotplates.

• Do not use oven protective foil.
• Do not use aluminium foil or plastic containers.

Overview of the most common damage
Here you can find the most common types of damage and tips on how to avoid them

Damage	Cause	Measure
Stains	Food boiling over	Remove boiled-over food immediately with a glass scraper.
Damage	Cause	Measure
Stains	Unsuitable cleaning products	Only use cleaning products that are suitable for glass ceramic.
Scratches	Salt, sugar or sand	Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage space.
Scratches	Rough pot or pan bases	Check your cookware.
Discolouration	Unsuitable cleaning products	Only use cleaning products that are suitable for glass ceramic.
Discolouration	Pan abrasion, e.g. aluminium	Lift pots and pans to move on the hob.
Blisters	Sugar or food with a high sugar content	Remove boiled-over food immediately with a glass scraper.

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. Use cookware whose base diameter is the same diameter as the hotplate.

Tip: Cookware manufacturers often give the upper diameter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the base diameter.

• Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cooking 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.

1. 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.

Take advantage of the hob's residual heat. With longer cooking times switch off the hotplate 5-10 minutes before the end of cooking.

• Unused residual heat increases energy consumption.

Product Information according (EU) 66/2014 can be found on the attached appliance pass and online on the product page for your appliance.

Familiarising yourself with your appliance

The instruction manual is the same for various different hobs. You can find the hob dimensions in the overview of models. → "Overview of models"

Control panel

You can use the control panel to configure all functions of your appliance and to obtain information about the operating status.

Displays/symbols

The displays show selected values and functions.

Display	Name
	Operating status
	Heat settings
	Residual heat
	Keep-warm function
	PowerBoost function
	Timer

Touch fields

Touch fields are touch-sensitive surfaces. To select a function, touch the relevant field.

Touch field	Name
	Main switch
	PowerBoost function
	Hotplate selection
	Childproof lock Wipe protection
	Settings range
	Activating the dual-circuit hotplate
	Activating tri-circuit hotplate
	Activating large extended cooking zone
	Keep-warm function
	Timer
	Stopwatch function

Notes

• Depending on the operating condition of the hob, the touch fields that can currently be selected light up brightly or dimmed. If you touch one of these fields, the relevant function is activated.
• Touch fields which cannot currently be selected do not light up.
• The settings of the hotplates currently selected light up brightly.
• Always keep the control panel dry. Moisture impairs the function.
• Do not pull pans close to the displays and touch fields. The electronics may overheat.

Hotplates

You can find an overview of the different activations of the hotplates here.
If you operate the activations, the relevant displays light up.
If you switch on a hotplate, it will switch to the setting last selected.

	Hotplate	Activating and deactivating
	Single-circuit cooking zone
	Dual-circuit hotplate	Touch ⁠ .
	Tri-circuit hotplate	Touch . Second filament circuit is activated. Touch ⁠ . Second and third filament circuit are activated.

Notes

• Dark areas in the glow pattern of the hotplate are part of the technical design. They do not affect the functionality of the hotplate.
• The hotplate regulates the temperature by switching the heat on and off. The heat may also switch on and off when at the highest setting.
• With multi-circuit hotplates, the heating of the inner filament circuits and the heating of the activations may switch on and off at different times.
  • This protects easily damaged components from overheating.
  • The appliance is protected against electrical overload.
  • Better cooking results are achieved.

Combi-cooking zone
The combi-cooking zone allows you to combine the single-circuit and the dual-circuit hotplate with the bridge heating element. The two hotplates can also be operated independently of each other.

	Single-circuit hotplate
	Dual-circuit hotplate
	Bridge heating element
Combination	Activation	Suitability
Small extended cooking zone: combination of 2 and 3	Use to activate the bridge heating element. lights up brightly.	Small roaster Small teppanyaki.
Large extended cooking zone: combination of 1 and 3 and 2	Touch ⁠ . lights up brightly.	Large roaster Large teppanyaki Large grill plate

The small extended cooking zone (2 and 3) and the single-circuit hotplate (1) can also be operated independently with different heat settings. This produces different temperature areas, for example for the large roaster, the teppanyaki or the grill plate. With the small extended cooking zone you can fry one food while simultaneously using the single-circuit hotplate to keep another warm.

Tip: Suitable cookware is available from customer service or our online-shop.

Residual heat indicator

The hob has a two-stage residual heat indicator for each hotplate. Do not touch the hotplate while the residual heat indicator is lit up.

Display	Meaning
	The hotplate is so hot that you can keep small dishes warm or melt cooking chocolate.
	The hotplate is hot.
