- 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!
- ■ 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.

Overview
The following table presents the most common damage
caused:
Protecting the environment
Unpack the appliance and dispose of its packaging in such a
way that no damage is caused to the environment.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
Energy-saving advice
■ Always use the correct lid for each pan. Cooking without a lid
uses a lot more energy. Use a glass lid to provide visibility
and avoid having to lift the lid.
■ Use pans with flat bases. Bases that are not flat use a lot
more energy.
■ The diameter of the pan base must match the size of the
hotplate. If the diameter is too small compared to the
hotplate, energy can be wasted. Please note: pan
manufacturers usually provide the diameter for the top of the
pan, which is usually larger than the diameter of the pan
base.
■ Use a small pan for small amounts of food. A large pan which
is not full uses a lot of energy.
■ Use little water when cooking. This saves energy and
preserves all the vitamins and minerals in vegetables.
■ Always cover as much of the hotplate as possible with the
pan.
■ Select the lowest power level to maintain cooking. If the
power level is too high, energy is wasted.
Induction cooking
Advantages of induction cooking
Induction cooking represents a radical change from the
traditional method of heating; the heat is generated directly in
the pan. It therefore offers a number of advantages:
■ Time savings for cooking and frying; since the pan is heated
directly.
■ Energy is saved.
■ Care and cleaning are simpler. Foods that have spilt do not
burn as quickly.
■ Heat and safety control; the hob supplies or cuts off power as
soon as the control knob is turned on. The induction hotplate
stops supplying heat if the pan is removed without having
previously switched it off.
Suitable pans
Ferromagnetic cookware
Only ferromagnetic cookware is suitable for induction cooking,
these may be made from:
■ enamelled steel
■ cast iron
■ special cutlery for stainless steel induction pan.
To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if a
magnet will stick to it.
Other cookware for induction
There are other types of cookware especially made for
induction cooking whose base is not entirely ferromagnetic.
Damage Cause Measure
Stains Food spillage Immediately remove spilt food using a glass scraper.
Unsuitable cleaning products Only use cleaning products specifically designed for glass-ceramic hobs.
Scratches Salt, sugar and sand Do not use the hob as a tray or working surface.
Pans with rough bottoms may scratch
the glass ceramic
Check pans.
Fading Unsuitable cleaning products Only use cleaning products specifically produced for glass-ceramic hobs.
Contact with pans Lift pots and pans before moving them around.
Chips Sugar, substances with a high sugar
content
Immediately remove spilt food using a glass scraper.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European
Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and
electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic
equipment - WEEE). The guideline determines the
framework for the return and recycling of used
appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
When using large cookware on a
smaller ferromagnetic area, only
the ferromagnetic zone heats up,
so heat might not be uniformly
distributed.
Pans with aluminium areas
inserted in the base reduce the
ferromagnetic area, so less heat
may be supplied and the pan
may be difficult to detect or not
be detected at all.
For good cooking results, the
diameter of the cookware's ferro-
magnetic area should match the
size of the hotplate. If cookware
is not detected on a hotplate, try
it on the next smaller hotplate
down.
