Electrical Connection
Connected load/wattage
The hob can take up an overall load of 2000 W.
Because of this high connected load it is recom-
mended to use a separate connection protected
over a 16 A safety switch.
CAUTION: OVERLOAD!
Do not use extension cables or multiple sockets
as the power consumption of this device is too
high for these.
Connection
Before inserting the mains plug into the socket
check whether the voltage which you intend to
use corresponds to that of the machine. Please
see the label on the machine for details.
Only connect the machine to a correctly in-
stalled safety socket.
Operation
The appliance has a ne sensor. A light touch
of the control panel with the nger is sufcient.
Use the nger, not the tip of the nger.
Each registered touch is conrmed by a beep.
In the event that the appliance does not react
when you press the buttons, clean the control
panel with a soft, dry cloth. Even a thin lm of
water can make the operation difcult.
Ensure that the control panel is always clean
and dry and that it is not covered by objects of
any kind.
Standby mode
After you have connected the device’s plug to the
mains supply, the hub is in standby mode. A signal
will sound.

Press the ON/OFF button to start cooking. The
indicator light above the ON/OFF button lights
up. The indicator light for POWER above the

back to the operating mode of standby.
Selecting performance, shut-off time or tem-
perature as the function
Press the SELECT button to select the control by

tor lights POWER, TEMP. and TIME will show the

Please observe that the cooking behavior
in the pots differs. It depends on the nature
and the quality of the cooking vessels.
