• Never use the cooking surface to heat closed cans. The increased pressure can cause
the cans to explode.
• If using a small appliance (e.g. a hand mixer) in the vicinity of the cooking surface, make
sure that the power cord does not come into contact with the hot cooking area. The
insulation of the cord could get damaged.
• If the cooktop is built in behind a cabinet door, it should only be operated with the
door open. Close the door only when the residual heat indicators have gone out.
Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-tting or hanging garments should never be worn while
using the appliance.
Use Only Dry Potholders - Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth.
• You could burn yourself on a hot cooking zone. Protect your hands when working
with a hot appliance - wear oven mitts or use potholders. Make sure the material
is not wet or damp. This would increase the transfer of heat to your skin and could
cause steam burns.
• Do not let sugar, food containing sugar, plastic or aluminium foil fall on the hot cooking
surface and melt. They can damage the ceramic surface when they cool. Switch the
cooking area o immediately and clean with a glass scraper. Clean the cooking surface
with a glass ceramic cleaner once it has cooled down.

drawer under the cooking surface!
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate
remote-control system.
• For users who wear a pacemaker: When the cooking area is in use it is surrounded by
an electromagnetic eld. It is unlikely that this will aect a pacemaker. However, if in doubt
consult the manufacturer of the pacemaker or your doctor.
• Objects aected by electromagnetic elds, for instance credit cards, CDs and calculators,
should be kept away from the cooking area when it is on.
• Because induction heating works so quickly, the temperature of the cookware bottom can
quickly reach the ignition point of oils and fats. Never leave the cooking area unattended
during use!
• The cooking surface is equipped with a cooling fan. If there is a drawer below the installed
appliance, you will need to ensure there is enough space to allow for ventilation. Do not
use the drawer to store sharp or small objects or paper. They could pass through or be
sucked into the vents in the housing and damage the fan blades or otherwise interfere
with cooling.

Advantages of induction cooking
When cooking with induction, heat is generated directly in the base of the pan. This
provides many benets for you:
•Time saving when boiling and frying. Cookware is heated directly.
• Less energy is consumed.
• Easy cleaning and maintenance. Spilled food does not burn onto the cooking
surface so quickly.
• Controlled supply of heat and increased safety. The burner reacts immediately
to any power change, so heating can be dosed precisely. Heating is interrupted
when you remove the cookware from the burner even if the burner is still switched
on.
Cookware
Only ferromagnetic cookware made of the following materials is suitable for
induction cooking surface:
• Enameled steel
• Cast iron
• Induction-capable cookware of stainless steel.
To determine whether the cookware is suitable,
check whether the base of the pot or pan attracts
a magnet.
There are other induction-capable pots and pans
whose bases are not completely ferromagnetic.
If the base of the cookware it’s not completely
ferromagnetic, only the area that is magnetizable
will get hot. Thus it can happen that the heat is
not distributed evenly.
To get good cooking results, we recommend that the dimension of the ferromagnetic
area of the cookware match the size of the burner.
Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top service without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface
Units - To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of ammable materials, and spillage
Induction cooking
ENGLISH
7

due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should
be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface units.
Use Proper Pan Size - This appliance is equipped with one or more surface
units of dierent size. Select utensils having at bottoms large enough to cover
the surface unit heating element. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also
improve eciency.
Unsuitable cookware
Do not ever use adapter plates for induction or cookware made of:
• Traditional stainless steel
• Glass
• Clay
• Copper
• Aluminum

Troubleshooting
ENGLISH

Protecting the environment
Disposal of your old appliance
• Old electrical and electronic appliances often still contain valuable materials.
However, they also contain harmful substances that were essential for the proper
functioning and safe use of the equipment. Handling these materials improperly
or disposing of them in your household waste can be harmful to your health and
the environment. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with
regular household waste.
• Old appliances may contain materials that can be recycled. Please contact your
local recycling authority about the possibility of recycling these materials.
• Please be sure that your old appliance does not pose a danger to children while
being stored for disposal.
Energy-saving advice
• Always place a tting lid on cookware. Cooking with an uncovered pan will result
in a four-fold increase in energy use. Use a glass lid to provide visibility and avoid
having to lift the lid.
• Use cookware equipped with a solid, at bottom. Curved pan bases increase
energy consumption.
• The diameter of the pan base must match the size of the element. If not, energy
may be wasted. Note: The manufacturer normally indicates the pan’s upper
diameter. This is normally greater than the diameter of the pan’s base.
• Choose cookware of a size suited to the amount of food you are going to cook.
A large pan that is only half full will use a lot of energy.
• Use a small amount of water when cooking. This saves energy, and vegetables
retain a larger percentage of their vitamins and minerals.
• Select a lower power level.
