- Risk of fire!
- ■ Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never use water to put out burning oil or fat. Switch off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket or something similar.
- ■ The hotplates become very hot. Never place combustible items on the hob. Never place objects on the hob.
- ■ The appliance gets hot. Do not keep combustible objects or aerosol cans in drawers directly underneath the hob.
- ■ The hob switches off automatically and can no longer be operated. It may switch on unintentionally at a later point. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
- ■ The hotplates and surrounding area (particularly the hob surround, if fitted) become very hot. Never touch the hot surfaces. Keep children at a safe distance.
- ■ The hotplate heats up but the display does not work. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
- ■ Metal objects on the hob quickly become very hot. Never place metal objects (such as knives, forks, spoons and lids) on the hob.
- ■ After each use, always turn off the hob at the main switch. Do not wait until the hob turns off automatically after the pan is removed.
- ■ Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried out and damaged power cables replaced by one of our trained after-sales technicians. If the appliance is defective, unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker...
- ■ Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners, which can result in an electric shock.
- ■ A defective appliance may cause electric shock. Never switch on a defective appliance. Unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
- ■ Cracks or fractures in the glass ceramic may cause electric shocks. Switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
- Malfunction risk!
- The hob is equipped with a fan in the lower section. If there is a drawer under the hob it should not be used to store small objects or paper, since they could damage the fan or interfere with the cooling if they are sucked into it.
- There should be a minimum of 2 cm between the contents of the drawer and fan intake.
- Risk of injury!
- Malfunction risk!
- ■ When cooking in a bain marie, the hob and cooking container could shatter due to overheating. The cooking container in the bain marie must not directly touch the bottom of the water-filled pot. Only use heat-resistant cookware.
- ■ Saucepans may suddenly jump due to liquid between the pan base and the hotplate. Always keep the hotplate and saucepan bases dry.

Normal noise while the appliance is working
Induction heating technology is based on the creation of
electromagnetic fields that generate heat directly at the base of
the pan. Depending on how the pan has been manufactured,
certain noises or vibrations may be produced such as those
described below:
A deep humming sound as in a transformer
This noise is produced when cooking with a high power level. It
is caused by the amount of energy transferred from the hob to
the pan. The noise disappears or becomes faint when the
power level is lowered.
A low whistling sound
This noise is produced when the pan is empty. The noise
disappears when water or food is added to the pan.
A crackling sound
This noise occurs in pans which are made from different
materials superimposed on one another. It is caused by the
vibrations that occur in the adjoining surfaces of the different
superimposed materials. The noise comes from the pan. The
amount of food and cooking method can vary noise intensity.
A high-pitched whistling sound
This noise is produced mainly in pans made from different
materials superimposed on one another, and it occurs when
such pans are heated at maximum power on two hotplates at
the same time. The whistling disappears or becomes fainter as
soon as the power level is lowered.
Noise from the fan
For proper use of the electronic system, the temperature of the
hob must be controlled. To do this, the hob has a fan which
turns on when a high temperature is detected. The fan may also
work by inertia after the hob has been switched off, if the
temperature detected is still too high.
The noises described are normal, they are part of induction
heating technology and not a sign of malfunction.
