Preparation
Tips for saving energy
The following information will help you to use
your appliance in an ecological way, and to
save energy:
• Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.
• Use pots/pans with cover for cooking. If
there is no cover, energy consumption may
increase 4 times.
• Select the burner which is suitable for the
bottom size of the pot to be used. Always
select the correct pot size for your dishes.
Larger pots require more energy.
• Pay attention to use flat bottom pots when
cooking with electric hobs.
Pots with thick bottom will provide a better
heat conduction. You can obtain energy
savings up to 1/3.
• Vessels and pots must be compatible with
the cooking zones. Bottom of the vessels
or pots must not be smaller than the
hotplate.
• Keep the cooking zones and bottom of the
pots clean. Dirt will decrease the heat
conduction between the cooking zone and
bottom of the pot.
• For long cookings, turn off the cooking
zone 5 or 10 minutes before the end of
cooking time. You can obtain energy
savings up to 20% by using the residual
heat.
Initial use
First cleaning of the appliance
1. Remove all packaging materials.
2. Wipe the surfaces of the appliance with a
damp cloth or sponge and dry with a cloth.
The surface might get damaged
by some detergents or cleaning
materials.
Do not use aggressive detergents,
cleaning powders/creams or any
sharp objects during cleaning. Do
not use harsh abrasive cleaners
or sharp metal scrapers to clean
the oven door glass since they
can scratch the surface, which
may result in shattering of the
glass.
How to use the hob
General information about cooking
• Before frying foods, always dry them well
and gently place into the hot oil. Ensure
complete thawing of frozen foods before
frying.
• Do not cover the vessel you use when
heating oil.
• Place the pans and saucepans in a manner
so that their handles are not over the hob
to prevent heating of the handles. Do not
place unbalanced and easily tilting vessels
on the hob.
• Do not place empty vessels and
saucepans on cooking zones that are
switched on. They might get damaged.
• Operating a cooking zone without a vessel
or saucepan on it will cause damage to the
product. Turn off the cooking zones after
the cooking is complete.
• As the surface of the product can be hot,
do not put plastic and aluminum vessels on
it.
Clean any melted such materials on the
surface immediately.
Such vessels should not be used to keep
foods either.
• Use flat bottomed saucepans or vessels
only.
• Put appropriate amount of food in
saucepans and pans. Thus, you will not
have to make any unnecessary cleaning by
preventing the dishes from overflowing.
Do not put covers of saucepans or pans on
cooking zones.
Place the saucepans in a manner so that
they are centered on the cooking zone.
When you want to move the saucepan onto
another cooking zone, lift and place it onto
the cooking zone you want instead of
sliding it.
Never fill the pan with oil more than
one third of it. Do not leave the hob
unattended when heating oil.
Overheated oils bring risk of fire.
Never attempt to extinguish a
possible fire with water! When
oil catches fire, cover it with a fire
blanket or damp cloth. Turn off the
hob if it is safe to do so and call the
fire department.

Page 14 of 24
Using the hobs
Spills may damage the
glass ceramic surface and
cause fire.
Do not use vessels with
concave or convex
bottoms.
Use only the saucepans
and pans with flat bottoms.
They ensure easier heat
transfer.
If the diameter of the
saucepan is too small,
energy will be wasted.
Do not allow any object to drop
on the hob. Even small objects
such as a saltshaker may
damage the hob.
Do not use cracked hobs. Water
may leak through these cracks
and cause short circuit.
In case of any kind of damage on
the surface (eg., visible cracks),
switch off the product
immediately to minimize the risk
of electric shock.
Quick heating glass-ceramic
hobs emit a bright light when
they are switched on. Do not
stare at the bright light.
Tips about glass ceramic hobs
• Glass ceramic surface is heatproof and is
not affected by big temperature
differences.
• Do not use the glass ceramic surface as a
place of storage or as a cutting board.
• Use only the saucepans and pans with
machined bottoms. Sharp edges create
scratches on the surface.
• Do not use aluminum vessels and
saucepans. Aluminum damages the glass
ceramic surface.

desired cooking zone. (cooking zone must be
set to a value between 1and 9)
2. As in the alarm timer, enable the
cooking zone timer by touching " "
key. "00" and " " will appear on the
timer display and a dot will appear on
the lower right side. Thus, cooking
zone timer is activated.
3. You must touch " " key for a second Ɵme in
order to enable cooking zone Ɵmer. Now you
can assign the Ɵmer.
4. Set the desired Ɵme value by touching " "
and " " keys.
To set the hob timers:
1. AŌer enabling the Þrst cooking zone Ɵmer,
touch the " " key again. The control will
turn clockwise towards the next acƟve
cooking zone assigned to the Ɵmer.
Assignment proposal will be shown with a
ßashing " " LED.
2. Set the desired Ɵme value by touching " "
and " " keys.
3. Timer acƟvated for the cooking zone which
was set Þrst is indicated with a conƟnuously
ßashing " " LED.
• More timers can be assigned for other
active cooking zones by touching the "
" key once again.
" " LEDs that illuminate continuously on
the timer display indicate the timer that is
currently counting down.
You can display the values set for cooking
zone timers and egg timer by changing
the position of " " key. A flashing front
right " " LED always shows an
assignment.
If no LED is flashing, value of the egg
timer will be displayed on the timer
screen.
Disabling the Ɵmers:

Operation time constraints
The hob control is equipped with an
operation time limit. When one or more
cooking zones are left on unintentionally, the
cooking zone will automatically be
deactivated after a certain period of time.
(see, Table-1).
Operation time limit depends on the selected
temperature setting. If there is a timer
assigned for the cooking zone, "00" appears
on the timer display for 10 seconds (10
seconds later, residual heat indicator turns
on). Then, timer display is turned off. After
disabling the cooking zone automatically as
described above, it becomes operational
again and maximum operation time is
applied for this temperature setting.

Residual Heat Functions
For a deactivated cooking zone whose
surface temperature is sensed to be above
60°C or whose display indicates a value
above 60°C, a " " (residual heat) symbol
appears on the display. When residual heat
falls below 60°C, "0" appears on the display.
Sample application:
Following lightning conditions will allow
a smooth calibration:
Illumination with a bulb without a reflector
(100W, dull) 70 cm above the glass ceramic
hob. After a successful calibration, it is
warranted that the hob will operate as
intended even under a strong illumination
such as halogen spot lamp with reflector (50
W).
If an error occurs, calibration is repeated
until the ambient conditions allow for a
successful calibration. Hob control system
can only be operated when the calibration of
all sensors are successful.
You must remove all substances on the hob
during calibration. Also the ambient
illumination should not be too strong during
calibration. If one of the F1, F2 or F4
messages is obtained, user must turn off all
light sources or close the window during the
calibration process at first connection to the
supply power. When the calibration is
completed successfully, control system can
tolerate high amount of ambient light.
Hob control system adopts and recalibrates
itself according to the changes in ambient
conditions while it is in use.
Touch control has a sensor that
protects against overheating. The
cooking zone will be deactivated
when reacting to the sensor. For
more information about error
messages refer to table. If a key is
activated repeatedly (more than10
s), control system is deactivated
and audio signal is given.
When power restores after a
power failure or your Hob is
switched off if the residual heat of
the relevant cooking zone was
above 60°C before the failure,
residual heat display flashes.
Display continues to flash until
the maximum residual heat time is
over or the cooking zone is
selected and enabled
