SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always keep children away from the cooker.
While in operation direct contact with the cooker may cause burns!
Ensure that small items of household equipment, including connection leads, do not touch
the hot oven or the hob as the insulation material of this equipment is usually not resistant
to high temperatures.
 Do not leave the cooker unattended when frying. Oils and fats may catch re due to
overheating or boiling over.
Do not allow the hob to get soiled and prevent liquids from boiling over onto the surface
of the hob. This refers in particular to sugar which can react with the ceramic hob and
cause irreversible damage. Any spillages should be cleaned up as they happen.
Do not place pans with a wet bottom on the warmed up heating zones as this can cause
irreversible changes to the hob (irremovable stains).
 Use pans that are specied by the manufacturer as designed for use with a ceramic
hob.
If any defects, deep scratches, cracks or chips appear on the ceramic hob, stop using the
cooker immediately and contact the service centre.
Do not switch on the hob until a pan has been placed on it.
Do not use pans with sharp edges that may cause damage to the ceramic hob.
Do not look directly at the halogen heating zones (not covered by a pan) when they are
warming up.
Do not put pans weighing over 15 kg on the opened door of the oven and pans over 25
kg on the hob.
Do not use harsh cleaning agents or sharp metal objects to clean the door as they can
scratch the surface, which could then result in the glass cracking.
 Do not use the cooker in the event of a technical fault. Any faults must be xed by an
appropriately qualied and authorised person.
In the event of any incident caused by a technical fault, disconnect the power and report
the fault to the service centre to be repaired.
Never allow children to remain unattended near the cooktop nor to play with the control
panel.
People with life function support implants (such as a heart pacemaker, an insulin
pump, or a hearing aid) must make sure that the operation of these devices is not
disturbed by the induction plate (induction plate frequency range is 20 to 50 kHz).
The appliance has been designed only for cooking. Any other use (for example for heat-
ing) does not comply with its operating prole and may cause danger.

Using energy in a respon-
sible way not only saves
money but also helps the
environment. So let’s save
energy! And this is how you
can do it:
Use proper pans for cooking.
Pans with thick, at bases can save up to 1/3
on electric energy. Remember to cover pans
if possible otherwise you will use four times
as much energy!
Match the size of the saucepan to the
surface of the heating zone.
A saucepan should never be smaller than a
heating zone.
Ensure heating zones and pan bases
are clean.
Soils can prevent heat transfer – and repeat-
edly burnt–on spillages can often only be
removed by products which cause damage
to the environment.
Do not uncover the pan too often
(a watched pot never boils!).
Do not open the oven door unnecessarily
often.
Switch o󰀨 the oven in good time and make
use of residual heat.
For long cooking times, switch o󰀨 heating
zones 5 to 10 minutes before nishing cook-
ing. This saves up to 20% on energy.
Only use the oven when cooking larger
dishes.
Meat of up to 1 kg can be prepared more
economically in a pan on the cooker hob.
HOW TO SAVE ENERGY
Make use of residual heat from the
oven.
If the cooking time is greater than 40 minutes
switch o󰀨 the oven 10 minutes before the
end time.
Important! When using the timer,
set appropriately shorter cooking
times according to the dish being
prepared.
Only grill with the ultrafan after closing
the oven door.
Make sure the oven door is properly
closed.
Heat can leak through spillages on the door
seals. Clean up any spillages immediately.
Do not install the cooker in the direct
vicinity of refrigerators/freezers.
Otherwise energy consumption increases
unnecessarily.

OPERATION
Induction cooking zone operation principle
Electric oscillator powers a coil placed inside the appliance.
This coil produces a magnetic eld, which induces eddy cur-
rents in the cookware.
These eddy currents induced by the magnetic eld cause the
cookware to heat up.
This requires the use of pots and pans whose base is ferromagnetic, in other words suscep-
tible to magnetic elds.
Overall, induction technology is characterized by two advantages:
●the heat is only emitted by the cookware and its use is maximised,
●there is no thermal inertia, since the cooking starts immediately when the pot is placed on
the hob and ends once it is removed.
Certain sounds can be heard during normal use of the induction hob, which do not a󰀨ect its
correct operation.
●Low-frequency humming. This noise arises when the cookware is empty and stops when
water is poured or food is placed in the cookware.
● High-frequency whizz. This noise arises in cookware made of multiple layers of di󰀨erent
materials at maximum heat setting. The noise intensies when using two or more cooking
zones at maximum heat setting. The noise will stop or reduce when heat setting is reduced.
● Creaking noise. This noise arises in cookware made of multiple layers of di󰀨erent materi-
als. The noise intensity depends on how the food is cooked.
●Buzzing. Buzzing can be heard when electronics cooling fan operates.
The noises that can be heard during the normal appliance operation are the result of the cooling
fan operation, cooking method, cookware dimensions, cookware material and the heat setting.
These noises are normal and do not indicate a fault.
