GENERAL INFORMATION ON
THE HOB:
-Never allow the induction hob to operate unattended, as
the high power setting results in extremely fast reactions.
-When cooking, pay attention to the heat-up speed of the
cooking zones. Avoid boiling the pans dry as there is a
risk of the pans overheating.
-Do not place empty pots and pans on cooking zones
which have been switched on.
-Take care when using simmering pans as simmering
water may dry up unnoticed, resulting in damage to the
pan and to the hob for which no liability will
be assumed.
-It is essential that after using a cooking zone you switch
it off with the respective minus key and not just with the
pan recognition device.
-Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite.
Always supervise the preparation of food with fats and
oils. Never extinguish ignited fats and oils with water.
Switch the appliance off and then carefully cover the
flame, for example with a lid or an extinguisher blanket.
-The glass ceramic surface of the hob is extremely robust.
You should, however, avoid dropping hard objects onto
the glass ceramic hob. Sharp objects which fall onto your
hob might break it.

-There is a risk of electric shock if the glass ceramic hob
develops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other
kind. Immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect
the fuse immediately and call Caple Service.
-If the hob cannot be switched off due to a defect in the
sensor control, immediately disconnect your appliance
and call Caple Service.
-Take care when working with home appliances.
Connecting cables must not come into contact with hot
cooking zones.
-Risk of fire: never store items on the hob.
-The glass ceramic hob should not be used as a
storage area.
-Do not put aluminium foil or plastic onto the cooking
zones. Keep everything which could melt, such as
plastics, foil and in particular sugar and sugary foods
away from hot cooking zones. Use a special glass scraper
to immediately remove any sugar from the ceramic hob
(when it is still hot) in order to avoid damaging the hob.
-Metal items (pots and pans, cutlery, etc.) must never be
put down on the induction hob since they may become
hot. Risk of burning.
-Do not place combustible, inflammable or heat
deformable objects directly underneath the hob.

Instruction manual DD810BK 7 Please keep this instruction manual for future reference
-Metal items worn on your body may become hot in the
immediate vicinity of the induction hob. Caution: Risk
of burns. Non-magnetisable objects (e.g. gold or silver
rings) are not affected.
-Never use the cooking zones to heat up unopened tins
of food or packaging made of material compounds. The
power supply may cause them to burst.
-Keep the sensor keys clean since the appliance may
consider dirt to be finger contact. Never put anything
(pans, tea towels etc.) onto the sensor keys.
-If food boils over onto the sensor keys, we advise you to
activate the OFF key.
-Hot pans should not cover the sensor keys, since this will
cause the appliance to switch off automatically.
-Place the pan as close to the centre of the cooking zone
as possible.
-Whenever possible, use the back cooking zones for large
pans so that the sensor keys are not heated up too much
(touch control overheating; error message E2).
-Activate the childproof lock if there are any pets in the
home which could make contact with the hob.
-Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner
or similar appliance.

-Make sure there are no items (e.g. cleaning cloths) right
next to the hob extractor. They could be sucked in by the
air current. Liquids and small items must always be kept
away from the appliance.
-Do not operate the appliance without grease
filters fitted.
-Grease filters with too much fat deposits are a
fire hazard.
-Constant supervision is essential when deep-frying;
flambéing is not permitted.
-A sufficient supply of inlet air must be provided when
operating wood, coal, gas or oil heaters requiring a
chimney. The permissible negative pressure which results
from the hood in the location of the heaters requiring a
chimney may not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) as this results
in a risk of poisoning.
-Vapour also emits moisture into the air in the kitchen
during the cooking process.
-Only a little moisture is removed from the vapours in the
convection air mode. This is why a sufficient supply of
fresh air must always be provided, e.g. by opening the
window or using a domestic ventilation systems.
-Always make sure that the indoor climate is normal and
comfortable (45 - 60 % humidity).
-Switch the hob extractor down to a lower setting for
around 20 minutes or activate the automatic delayed
stop function every time the hob extractor is used in the
convection air mode.
