~
Do not allow either solid or liquid
sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the cooking zones when
they are hot. If this should occur, switch
off the appliance, and carefully scrape
off all the sugar, plastic or aluminium
residues from the hob whilst they are
still hot, using a shielded scaper blade.
Take care not to burn yourself.
If residues are allowed to cool before
being removed, the ceramic surface
will be susceptible to pitting or even
cracking.
Once the residues have been removed,
allow the appliance to cool down, and
then clean with a suitable proprietary
ceramic hob cleaner.
~
When using an electric socket near
the hob, care should be taken that the
cable of the electrical appliance does
not come into contact with a hot
cooking zone. The insulation on the
cable could become damaged, giving
rise to an electric shock hazard.
~
This appliance is fitted with a
cooling fan. If a drawer is fitted directly
underneath the hob, ensure that there
is sufficient space between the drawer
and its contents and the underside of
the appliance in order to ensure
sufficient ventilation for the hob. Do not
store pointed or small items or paper in
the drawer. They could get in through
the ventilation slots or be sucked into
the housing by the fan and damage the
fan or impair cooling.
~
Spray canisters, aerosols and other
inflammable substances must not be
stored in a drawer under the hob.
Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
Warning and Safety instructions
~
Metal utensils stored in a drawer
under the hob can become hot if the
induction hob is used intensively for a
long time.
~
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated.
Some foods may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking at a
sufficiently high temperature for long
enough. Therefore, when cooking or
reheating food such as poultry, it is
particularly important that the food is
completely cooked through. If in doubt,
select a longer cooking or reheating
time.
~
Do not use two pans on a
cooking/extended zone at the same
time.
~
If the hob is installed behind a
furniture door it may only be operated
with the door open. Do not close the
door whilst the hob is in use or whilst
there is any residual heat left in the
appliance.
~
If the hob is built in over a pyrolitic
oven, the hob should not be used whilst
the pyrolitic process is being carried
out, as this could trigger the
overheating protection mechanism on
the hob (see relevant section).
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
