4.1 Safety instructions for operation
DWARNING!
Hazard through a disregard of the operating
instructions!
This chapter contains important information for the safe
operation of the device.
☞Read through this chapter carefully before operating the
device.
☞Follow the safety instructions.
yOperation only by authorised users.
D“1.2 Authorised target groups” (page 4).
yNo operation permitted by children under 8 years old and
persons who would not be able to properly assess the
hazards associated with handling the device.
yParticular details for children in the household must be
observed.
D“1.2 Authorised target groups”(page 4).
Notices for use of the hob:
yWhen in use, the hob and other parts that could be
touched can become very hot. There is a risk of burning.
yDo not place heat-sensitive objects on the hot hob.
yDo not use during a fire or when there is an imminent
danger of fire (e.g. a smell of gas).
yDo not flambé. Fire hazard.
yDeep-frying must not take place unattended. Overheated
grease and oil can ignite.
yGrease residues should be removed. Grease residues pose
a fire hazard.
yNever extinguish fire on the hob with water. Risk of
explosion. Suffocate fire on the hob (e.g. with a fire
extinguishing blanket).
yDo not operate the device with a time switch or separate
remote controls.
yDo not use the device when damaged (e.g. glass break).
yDo not use the hob as a work or storage surface.
yDo not use pots or pans with rough or damaged bottoms.
Grains of sand can also cause scratches.
yDo not use synthetic containers or aluminium vessels.
These containers can melt.
yDo not heat up closed containers (e.g. canned preserves).
The containers can burst due to overpressure.
yDo not use copper, brass, glass, porcelain or stainless steel
cookware without magnetic bottoms, because they are
not suitable for induction hobs.
yDo not heat up empty cookware.
yDo not place hot cookware on the control unit.
The electronics can be damaged as a result.
yDo not place metallic objects on the hob, because they
can become hot during use.
ySharp and hard objects (e.g. pot edges) can damage the
glass on the hob due to impact or falling.
yDo not use magnetic objects (e.g. data carriers, credit
cards) near the device. The function of these objects can
be impaired.
yIf there is a drawer under the hob:
yDo not store flammable objects (e.g. spray cans).
yCutlery bins contained therein must bemade of heat-
resistant material.
yOnly use the hob when the extraction is switched on.
yThe device must be switched off after use.
Sugar, plastic, aluminium foil and similar materials must
not come into contact with the hot hob. These materials
can melt, adhere or cause damage (e.g. cracks or breaks).
However, if these materials do come into contact with the
hot hob:
☞Turn off the device.
☞Remove the materials while they are still hot. There is a
risk of burns because the hob is hot.
Notices for use of the extraction:
yNo moisture in the device. Avoid dripping or splashing
water.
yDo not impede the air flow.
yDo not impede the air channel on the underside of the
device.
yIn recirculated air mode:
Do not cover the air outlets (e.g. glasses/plates on or in
front of the ventilation slots). Out-flowing air must be
able to escape through the ventilation slots without
impediment. Otherwise backpressure may form. If the
cooking vapours are no longer able to escape there is a
danger of fire.
Only use the recirculated air filter if the filter cartridges are
installed.
yIn extracted air mode:
Adequate fresh air supply must be assured.
Measures to ensure a sufficient supply of fresh air:
☞Open the windows.
☞Open the doors.
☞Ensure that the window contact switch and the wall box
are installed and ready for operation.
☞With heating points which use air from the room as their
oxygen supply (e.g. chimneys):
Make sure that the mandated safety devices are
functioning correctly.
