Before using the
appliance for the first
time
Clean the glass-ceramic surface with a damp cloth and some manual dishwashing
detergent. Do not use aggressive detergents such as abrasive cleaners that can
scratch the surface, abrasive dishwashing sponges, or stain removers.
• Do not turn on a cooking zone without a pan over it, and never use the cooking hob
for room heating!
• Make sure the cooking zones and pan bottom are clean and dry, and that sufficient
heat transmission is enabled between them, in order to prevent any damage to the
heating surface.
• Any fat or oil left on the cooking ones may ignite. Therefore, be careful when using
fat and oil to prepare food (e.g. French fries) and control the cooking process at all
times.
• Do not place a damp pan or a steam-covered lid on the cooking zones, as moisture
is detrimental to them.
• Do not leave a hot pan to cool down on the cooking zones, because moisture will
be generated under it, causing corrosion.
• The hob can not be activated by external timers or remote controls systems.
Important warnings Important warnings regarding the glass ceramic hob
• Cooking zone reaches the selected power level or temperature very quickly;
however, the area surrounding the cooking zones remains relatively cool.
• The hob is resistant to temperature changes.
• The hob is also impact-resistant. The pans may be placed onto the hob roughly
without damaging the hob.
• Glass ceramic hobs should not be used as a worktop. Sharp objects can cause
scratches.
• Preparing food in thin aluminum of plastic containers on hot cooking zones is not
allowed. Do not place any plastic objects or aluminum foil on the glass ceramic hob.
• Never use a glass-ceramic hob that is cracked or broken.
If an object falls on the hob with a sharp edge downwards, this could cause the hob /
glass ceramic panel to break. The consequences are visible immediately, or only
after a while. If any visible crack should appear, immediately disconnect the
appliance from the power supply.
• If sugar is spilt on a hot glass ceramic hob, or a sugar-laden food, immediately
wipe the hob.
Cookware Tips on using the cookware
Use high-quality cookware with a flat and stable bottom.
• Transmission of heat is best when the pan bottom and the cooking zone are of the
same diameter, and the pan is placed on the middle of the cooking zone.
• When using a tempered glass (Pyrex) or porcelain cookware, please follow the
cookware manufacturer’s instructions.
• When using a pressure cooker, do not leave it unattended until the desired
pressure is reached. The cooking zone should initially be set to the maximum power
level; as the pressure rises, use the sensors to decrease the power level according
to the pressure cooker manufacturer’s instructions.
• Make sure there is always enough water, either in a pressure cooker or in any
other piece of cookware, as using an empty pan on the cooking hob will result in
overheating which will damage both the pan and the cooking zone.
• Tempered glass (Pyrex) cookware with a specially brushed bottom is suitable for
use on cooking hobs if it fits the diameter of the cooking zone. Cookware with larger
diameter may break due to thermal stress.
• When using any special or unconventional cookware, follow the cookware
manufacturer’s instructions.
• When a highly reflective pan (bright metal surface) or a pan with a thick bottom is
used for cooking on a glass-ceramic hob, cooking time can be extended by several
minutes (up to 10 minutes). If you wish to boil a larger quantity of food, it is
recommended to use a container with a flat dark bottom.
• Do not use clay cookware, because it may leave scratches on the glass-ceramic
hob.
Energy saving • Pan bottom diameters should match the diameter of the cooking zone. If the pan is
too small, some heat is wasted; furthermore, using a too small pan can damage the
cooking zone.
• Whenever possible given the cooking process, use a lid.
•The pan should be appropriately sized given the quantity of food prepared.
Preparing a small quantity of food in a large pan will cause a waste of energy.

9
• Dishes that take a long time to cook should be prepared in a pressure cooker.
• Various vegetables, potatoes, etc., can be cooked in a small quantity of water;
however, the lid should be closed tightly. When the water is brought to boil, reduce
the power level to a setting that maintains a temperature just above boiling point.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Ceramic glass hob should be cleaned only when completely cooled down, preferably
after each use, otherwise even the slightest stains remaining after cooking may burn
into the hob surface with each following use.
For regular maintenance of ceramic-glass hob use special cleansing agents,
produced in such way to create protective film upon the surface.
Before each use, wipe the dust and other particles from the hob, they may scratch
the surface (Fig. 1).
Caution: use of steel wool, abrasive cleaning sponges, and abrasive detergents can
scratch the surface of the hob. The surface may also be damaged by the use of
aggressive sprays and inappropriate liquid chemicals (Fig.1 and 2).
Pattern marks can be erased by the use of aggressive cleansing agents or rough
and damaged cookware bottoms (Fig. 2).
Minor stains are removed with moist soft cloth; after that the surface should be
wiped dry (Fig. 3).
Water stains are removed with gentle vinegar solution, but you must not wipe the
frame with it (certain models only), since it may lose its glow. Never use any
aggressive sprays or limestone removers (Fig. 3).
Major stains are removed with special ceramic-glass cleansers.
Follow strictly the manufacturer’s instructions.
Be careful to remove any remains of cleansing agent from the hob surface,
otherwise they will be heated during the next use and can damage the hob (Fig. 3).
Stubborn and burnt stains are removed with special ceramic-glass scraper. Be
careful, however, not to touch the hotplate surface with the scraper handle (Fig. 4).
Handle the scraper with utmost care to avoid injuries!
Sugar and sugar containing food may permanently damage the ceramic-glass hob
surface (Fig. 5), so the remains of sugar and sugar containing food must be scraped
off from the hob surface immediately, when the hotplates are still hot (Fig. 4).
Discoloring of ceramic-glass hob has no effect whatsoever on its operation and
stability. In most cases, it appears as the consequence of burnt in food remains, or
as a result of dragging pots and pans (especially aluminium or copper bottom
cookware) across the surface, and such discoloring is rather hard to remove.
Note: All described faults are mostly esthetical and do not affect directly the
operation of the appliance. Remedy of such faults is not covered by warranty.
