Warning and Safety Instructions Warning and Safety Instructions Warning: When using your cooktop, follow basic safety precautions including the following: Read all instructions before using the cooktop. Use the cooktop only for its intended use. Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Before servicing, disconnect the power supply by removing the fuse or turning off the circuit breaker.
Warning and Safety Instructions Warning and Safety Instructions Always cook pork thoroughly to ensure that, in the event of trichina, all bacteria will be killed and the meat is safe to eat. For best results, utilize pots and pans that are the same size as the cooktop heating elements. If high settings are used, be cautious of splattering grease or liquids boiling over which may produce smoke. Use only dry potholders. Use only cookware suitable for range-top service.
Warning and Safety Instructions Warning and safety instructions Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future user. Disposal of discarded appliances Before disposal of an old appliance, disconnect and remove the appliance cord to render it useless. This is intended to prevent the discarded appliance from being a hazard. Text highlighted in boxes is of particular importance and should be read in conjunction with the Warning and Safety instructions.
Before using for the first time Before using for the first time Read the “Warning and Safety instructions” before using for the first time. Thoroughly clean the ceramic cooktop before using for the first time, and then regularly after each use (see “Cleaning and care”). There may be a slight smell during the initial use due to the drying effect of the insulation material.
Cooktop controls Cooktop controls All cooking areas are controlled by variable control knobs. By using these control knobs, temperatures can be freely selected. The controls can be turned either clockwise or counterclockwise. The indicator lamp for each cooking area lights as soon as the respective control knob is turned to a setting. It goes out when the control knob is turned to the “0” position. A resistance is felt between settings 7 and 8 to indicate that a higher temperature range is being reached.

Description of cooking areas Description of cooking areas Cooking areas - diameter The cooking areas are clearly marked on the cooktop unit. Only the area which has been turned on will be heated. The rest of the cooktop surface will remain relatively cool. Residual heat indicator Each cooking area has a residual heat indicator. When a cooking area is turned on, its residual heat indicator lights up.
Operation Operation Saucepans Saucepan size The following notes are designed to enable you to . . . make the best use of energy when using your ceramic cooktop. . . . prevent food from boiling over and burning on to the ceramic cooktop. Pots and pans are available which have been specially tested for use on glass ceramic cooktops. The diameter of the saucepan should be a little larger than that of the cooking area.
Operation Operation Note: Do not use any pots or pans on the ceramic cooktops having bases with pronounced edges or ridges. These could permanently scratch the cooktop surface. Place a saucepan on the cooking area before turning on the appliance to save energy. The ceramic surface and the base of the saucepan should be clean and dry. This saves unnecessary cleaning after cooking and protects the cooking area. Care should be taken that no granules (e. g. salt, sugar, etc.) are on the cooktop when cooking.
Cleaning and care Cleaning and care Ceramic cooktop Generally you can use the same cleaning agents for the ceramic cooktop as you would for ordinary glass surfaces. Never use scouring agents or pads, or strong cleaners such as oven sprays or stain removers, as these could harm the surface. Clean after each use Wipe off any minor spills with a damp cloth. If the cooktop is cleaned with a soap, for example dishwashing liquid, light blue staining may occur.
Cleaning and care Cleaning and care Some cleaners incorporate a silicone agent which acts as a protective film for the ceramic cooktop. It makes the cooktop surface smoother and prevents water and food from adhering to the surface. Cooking at high temperatures reduces this effect and the cleaner may need to be reapplied. By cleaning your ceramic surface with one of these agents, you will help avoid damage caused by sugar, syrups and aluminum foil deposits.
Correcting minor faults Correcting minor faults Repairs to electrical appliances should only be carried out by a trained person. Unauthorized repairs can be dangerous. Some minor problems, however, can be remedied as follows: What to do if . . . . . . a humming sound is heard while the ceramic cooktop is heating up? This is not a fault. As the cooking area heats up, the humming disappears completely. . . . a resistance is felt between settings 7 and 8? This is not a fault.
