appliance is fully isolated from the power mains.
Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed
wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
Do not place objects like knives, forks, spoons, or lids on the
induction cooking zone as they can become very hot.
Do not use steam cleaners or high pressure cleaners to clean the
appliances as this may result in an electric shock.
The appliance is not intended to be controlled with external
timers or special control systems.
WARNING: Use only hob guards designed by the manufacturer

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
FOR THE FIRST TIME
If your hob has a glass ceramic surface, clean it with a damp cloth and some washing-
up liquid. Do not use aggressive cleaners, such as abrasive cleaners that could cause
scratches, abrasive dishwashing sponges, or stain removers.
During initial use, characteristic "new appliance smell" may appear; it will gradually
disappear.

INDUCTION COOKING SURFACE
GLASS CERAMIC COOKING SURFACE
- The hob is resistant to temperature changes.
- The hob is also impact-resistant.
- 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 off 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.
- The cooking zone may be damaged if you place an empty pan onto it. Before placing a pan
onto the cooking zone, wipe the pan bottom dry to allow conduction of heat.
COOKING POWER LEVELS
Cooking zone heat power can be set to ten different levels. The table lists some examples of
use for each level.
Level Purpose
0Switched o, using the residual heat
1 - 2 Keeping the food warm, slow cooking of smaller amounts (lowest setting)
3Slow cooking (follow-up cooking after the initial power boost)
4 - 5 Slow cooking (follow-up cooking) of large amounts, pan-roasting of larger chunks
6Searing and browning
7 - 8 Searing
9Cooking of large amounts, searing
PPower boost setting for start of the cooking process; also suitable for very
large amounts of food
