GLASS CERAMIC COOKING SURFACE
- The hob is resistant to temperature changes.
- The hob is also impact-resistant. Even if the cookware is placed onto the hob roughly,
the hob will not be damaged.
- Using the glass ceramic hob as a storage area may result in scratches or other damage
to it.
- Do not use the glass ceramic hob if it is cracked or broken. If a sharp object falls on
the hob, the hob may break. The consequences of such occurrence may be visible
immediately or only after a while. If any visible crack appears in the hob, immediately
cut o the power supply to the appliance.
- Make sure the cooking zone and the cookware bottom is clean and dry. This will allow
better conduction of heat and prevent any damage to the heating surface. Do not place
empty cookware on the cooking zone.
INDUCTION COOKING SURFACE

16
480756
If sugar or food with high sugar content is spilled over a hot class
ceramic hob, immediately wipe the hob or remove the sugar with
a scraper, even if the cooking zone is still hot. This will prevent
any damage to the class ceramic surface.
Do not use detergents and other cleaners to clean a hot glass
ceramic hob as this could damage the surface.
- The cooking hob is fitted with highly ecient induction cooking
zones. The heat is generated directly in the bottom of the pan
where it is needed the most. This avoids any losses through the
glass ceramic surface. Power consumption is considerably lower
than in conventional cooking zones with radiation heaters.
- The glass ceramic cooking zone is not heated directly, but only
indirectly with the heat radiated back by the pan. After the
cooking zone is switched o, this heat is indicated as »residual
heat«.
- In induction cooking zones, heating is made possible by the
induction coil installed under the glass ceramic surface. The coil
induces a magnetic field which generates eddy currents in the
bottom of a ferromagnetic pan (i.e. a pan that a magnet will
adhere to), which in turn heats the pan.
INDUCTION COOKING ZONE OPERATING PRINCIPLE

17
480756
- The induction will work correctly if you use suitable cookware.
- Make sure the pot or pan is in the middle of the cooking zone.
- Suitable cookware includes cookware made of steel, enamel-
coated steel pans, or cast iron pans.
- Unsuitable cookware: alloy steel cookware with copper or
aluminium bottom, and glass cookware.
- The magnet test: Use a small magnet to check whether the
pan or pot bottom is ferromagnetic. If the magnet sticks to the
bottom of the pan, then it is suitable for an induction cooker.
- When using a pressure cooker, keep an eye on it until the right pressure is reached.
First, set the cooking zone to maximum power; then, following the pressure cooker
manufacturer's instructions, use the relevant sensor to decrease the cooking power at
the right time.
- Make sure there is enough liquid in the pressure cooker, or any other pot or pan. Due to
overheating, using an empty pot on the cooking zone may result in damage to both the
pot and the cooking zone.
- When using special cookware, observe the manufacturer's instructions.

PAN RECOGNITION
- Even if there is no pot or pan on the cooking zone or if the pan
used has a diameter that is smaller than the diameter of the
cooking zone, there will be no losses of energy.
- If the pan is much smaller than the cooking zone, there is a
possibility that it will not be recognized by the cooking zone.
When the cooking zone is activated, the sign »U« will appear on
the cooking power display. If a pan is placed on the induction
cooking zone within the next ten minutes, the hob will recognize
it and switch on with the selected cooking power. As soon as the
pan is removed from the cooking zone, the power supply is cut
o.
- If a smaller pan or pot is placed on the cooking zone and it is
recognized, the hob will only use as much power as necessary
given the pan size.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
- When purchasing cookware, note that the diameter indicated on the pan usually
pertains to the upper edge or the lid, which is normally larger than the diameter of the
pan bottom.
- If a dish takes a long time to cook, use a pressure cooker. Make sure there is always
sucient liquid in the pressure cooker. If an empty cooker is placed on the cooking hob,
it may overheat which in turn may lead to damage to both the pot and the cooking
zone.
- Whenever possible, close the pot or pan with a suitably sized lid. Use cookware that
fits the amount of food you are cooking. Cooking in a large partly full pot will consume
much more energy.

AAutomatic rapid heating
(P) – POWER BOOST
For rapid cooking, power boost can be activated for any cooking zone.
The front left cooking zone features the extra power function. In this zone, extra
power is activated for five minutes; then, the zone automatically switches to level 9.
Rotate the knob to the right until the "P" sign. The sign "P" will
appear on the power level display unit. Power Boost will be
deactivated as soon as you decrease the power level.

20
480756
AUTOMATIC RAPID HEATING
All cooking zones are fitted with a special mechanism that sets the cooking power to
maximum at the start of the cooking process, regardless of the actual power setting. After
a while, the cooking zone power switches back to the initially set level (1 to 8).
The rapid heating system is suitable for dishes that have to be heated up and then
cooked for a longer period of time without the need for constant supervision.
The rapid heating system is not suitable for braising, frying or sautéing, food that
requires frequent turning, basting, or mixing, or food that has to boil for a longer period of
time in a pressure cooker.
The rapid heating function can be deactivated by reducing the cooking power level.
If the power stetting knob remains in the "0" position after the rapid heating function is
activated, this function will be switched off after 3 seconds.
If the pot or pan is removed from the cooking zone, and returned within ten minutes,
heating with the automatic rapid heating system will resume and continue until the end.

RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR
The glass ceramic cooking zone is not heated directly, but only indirectly with the heat
radiated back by the pan.
As long as the symbol "H" is lit up after the hob has been switched off, there is residual
heat in the cooking zone, which can be used to keep the food warm or for defrosting.
When the "H" sign disappears, the cooking zone may still be hot. Risk of burns!
Rotate the knob all the way to the right to the symbol "A" and
hold it for two seconds until a beep is heard. Then, set the desired
cooking level. "A" and selected power level will alternate on the
power level display. When the power boost heating time expires,
the cooking zone automatically switches to the selected level
which will then be continuously displayed.
