2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 Installation
WARNING!
Only a qualified person must
install this appliance.
WARNING!
Risk of injury or damage to the
appliance.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged
appliance.
• Follow the installation instructions
supplied with the appliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from other
appliances and units.
• Always take care when moving the

safety gloves and enclosed footwear.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to
prevent moisture from causing swelling.
4 ENGLISH

• Protect the bottom of the appliance from
steam and moisture.
• Do not install the appliance next to a door
or under a window. This prevents hot
cookware from falling from the appliance
when the door or the window is opened.
• Each appliance has cooling fans on the
bottom.
• If the appliance is installed above a
drawer:
– Do not store any small pieces or
sheets of paper that could be pulled
in, as they can damage the cooling
fans or impair the cooling system.
– Keep a distance of minimum 2 cm
between the bottom of the appliance
and parts stored in the drawer.
• Remove any separator panels installed in
the cabinet below the appliance.
2.2 Electrical Connection
WARNING!
Risk of fire and electric shock.
• All electrical connections should be made
by a qualified electrician.
• The appliance must be earthed.
• Before carrying out any operation make
sure that the appliance is disconnected
from the power supply.
• Make sure that the parameters on the
rating plate are compatible with the
electrical ratings of the mains power
supply.
• Make sure the appliance is installed
correctly. Loose and incorrect electricity
mains cable or plug (if applicable) can
make the terminal become too hot.
• Use the correct electricity mains cable.
• Do not let the electricity mains cable
tangle.
• Make sure that a shock protection is
installed.
• Use the strain relief clamp on the cable.
• Make sure the mains cable or plug (if
applicable) does not touch the hot
appliance or hot cookware, when you
connect the appliance to the near sockets.
• Do not use multi-plug adapters and
extension cables.
• Make sure not to cause damage to the
mains plug (if applicable) or to the mains
cable. Contact our Authorised Service
Centre or an electrician to change a
damaged mains cable.
• The shock protection of live and insulated
parts must be fastened in such a way that
it cannot be removed without tools.
• Connect the mains plug to the mains
socket only at the end of the installation.
Make sure that there is access to the
mains plug after the installation.
• If the mains socket is loose, do not
connect the mains plug.
• Do not pull the mains cable to disconnect
the appliance. Always pull the mains plug.
• Use only correct isolation devices: line
protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type
fuses removed from the holder), earth
leakage trips and contactors.
• The electrical installation must have an
isolation device which lets you disconnect
the appliance from the mains at all poles.
The isolation device must have a contact
opening width of minimum 3 mm.
2.3 Use
WARNING!
Risk of injury, burns and electric
shock.
• Remove all the packaging, labelling and
protective film (if applicable) before first
use.

electrical shock.
• Users with a pacemaker must keep a
distance of minimum 30 cm from the
ENGLISH 5

induction cooking zones when the
appliance is in operation.
• When you place food into hot oil, it may
splash.
WARNING!
Risk of fire and explosion
• Fats and oil when heated can release
flammable vapours. Keep flames or
heated objects away from fats and oils
when you cook with them.
• The vapours that very hot oil releases can
cause spontaneous combustion.
• Used oil, that can contain food remnants,
can cause fire at a lower temperature than

CAUTION!
Make sure that the selected
power fits the house installation
fuses.
5.13 Power management
• Cooking zones are grouped according to
the location and number of the phases in
the hob. See the illustration.
• Each phase has a maximum electricity
loading of 3600 W.
• The function divides the power between
cooking zones connected to the same
phase.
• The function activates when the total
electricity loading of the cooking zones
connected to a single phase exceeds
3600 W.
• The function decreases the power to the
other cooking zones connected to the
same phase.
• The heat setting display of the reduced
zones alternates between the chosen
heat setting and the reduced heat setting.
After some time the heat setting display of
the reduced zones stays on the reduced
heat setting.
Power management with Power limitation
When you set the Power limitation function to
6000 W or less, power of the hob is divided
between all cooking zones.
When you set the Power limitation function to
more than 6000 W, the power of the hob is
divided between its left and right side.
5.14 Hob²Hood
It is an advanced automatic function which
connects the hob to a special hood. Both the
hob and the hood have an infrared signal
communicator. Speed of the fan is defined
automatically on basis of mode setting and
temperature of the hottest cookware on the
hob. You can also operate the fan from the
hob manually.
For most of the hoods the
remote system is originally
deactivated. Activate it before
you use the function. For more
information refer to hood user
manual.
Operating the function automatically
To operate the function automatically set the
automatic mode to H1 – H6. The hob is
originally set to H5. The hood reacts
whenever you operate the hob. The hob
recognizes temperature of the cookware
automatically and adjusts the speed of the
fan.

system deactivates the fan
automatically and prevents you
from accidental activation of the
fan for the next 30 seconds.
Operating the fan speed manually
You can also operate the function manually.
To do that touch when the hob is active.
This deactivates automatic operation of the
function and allows you to change the fan
speed manually. When you press you
raise the fan speed by one. When you reach
an intensive level and press again you will

of the function, deactivate the
hob and activate it again.
Activating the light
You can set the hob to activate the light
automatically whenever you activate the hob.
To do so set the automatic mode to H1 – H6.
The light on the hood
deactivates 2 minutes after
deactivating the hob.
6. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
6.1 Cookware
For induction cooking zones a
strong electro-magnetic field
creates the heat in the cookware
very quickly.
Use the induction cooking zones with
suitable cookware.
14 ENGLISH

• The bottom of the cookware must be as
thick and flat as possible.
• Ensure pan bases are clean and dry
before placing on the hob surface.
• In order to avoid scratches, do not slide or
rub the pot across the ceramic glass.
Cookware material
•correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with a
correct marking from a manufacturer).
•not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is suitable for an induction hob
if:
• water boils very quickly on a zone set to
the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
Cookware dimensions
• Induction cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the cookware
automatically.
• The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. The
cookware with a diameter smaller than the
minimum receives only a part of the
power generated by the cooking zone.
• For both safety reasons and optimal
cooking results, do not use cookware
larger than indicated in "Cooking zones
specification". Avoid keeping cookware
close to the control panel during the
cooking session. This might impact the
functioning of the control panel or
accidentally activate hob functions.
Refer to "Technical data".
6.2 The noises during operation
If you can hear:
• crack noise: cookware is made of different
materials (a sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use a cooking zone
with a high power level and the cookware
is made of different materials (a sandwich
construction).
• humming: you use a high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not indicate
any malfunction.
6.3 Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the cooking
zone deactivates before the count down
timer sounds. The difference in the operation
time depends on the heat setting level and
the length of the cooking operation.
6.4 Examples of cooking
applications
The correlation between the heat setting of a
zone and its consumption of power is not
linear. When you increase the heat setting, it
is not proportional to the increase of the
consumption of power. It means that a
cooking zone with the medium heat setting
uses less than a half of its power.
The data in the table is for
guidance only.
