- ■ 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.
- Electromagnetic hazards!
- 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!
- ■ 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.

- 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
- 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 la...
- ■ 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.

Residual heat indicator
The hob has a residual heat indicator for each hotplate to show
those which are still hot. Avoid touching them when this
indicator is lit.
Although the hob is switched off, the indicator
œ or • will
remain on for as long as the hotplate is hot.
If the pan is removed before the hotplate is turned off, the
indicator
œ or • and the selected power level will appear
alternately.
Programming the hob
This section will show you how to program the hotplates. The
table contains power levels and cooking times for several
dishes.
Turning the hob on and off
The hob is turned on and off using the main switch.
To turn on: Press the
# symbol. A beep sounds. The indicator
located next to the main switch and the
‹ indicators of the
hotplates light up. The hob is ready for use.
To turn off: press the
# symbol until the indicators go out. All
hotplates are turned off. The residual heat indicator will remain
lit until the hotplates have cooled down sufficiently.
Notes
■ The hob switches off automatically when all the hotplates are
switched off for more than 20 seconds.
■ The settings are memorised for 4 seconds after the hob has
been turned off. If the hotplate is switched back on within this
time then the previous settings will be applied.
Setting the hotplate
The desired power level is set in the programming panel.
Power level 1 = minimum power.
Power level 9 = maximum power.
Each power level has an intermediate setting. This is marked
with a dot.
Selecting the hotplate and the power level
The hob must be switched on.
1. Select the hotplate with the ¹ symbol.
The
¬ symbol lights up in the display.
2. Within the next 10 seconds, slide a finger over the
programming zone until the desired power level lights up.
The power level has been set.
Changing the power level
Select the hotplate and set the desired power level in the
programming zone.
Switch off the hotplate
Select the hotplate and set it to
‹ in the programming panel.
The hotplate turns off and the residual heat indicator appears.
Notes
■ If no pan has been placed on the hotplate, the selected
power level flashes. After a certain time has elapsed, the
hotplate switches off.
■ If a pan has been placed on the hotplate before switching on
the hob, it will be detected within 20 seconds of pressing the
main switch and the hotplate will be selected automatically.
Once detected, select the power level within the next
20 seconds or the hotplate will switch off.
If more than one pan is placed on the hob, only one will be
detected when switching it on.
Cooking guidelines table
The table below contains some examples.
Cooking times depend on the power level, type, weight and
quality of the food. As such they are approximate.
When heating purées, creams and thick sauces, stir
occasionally.
Use power level 9 to begin cooking.
