(Important safety
information
Impor t ant safety informat i on :Warning – Danger of suffocation!
Packaging material is dangerous to children.
Never allow children to play with packaging
material.
:Warning – Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being drawn
back in.
Always ensure that there is an adequate
supply of fresh air to the room if the appliance
is being operated in air extraction mode at the
same time as a non-room-sealed heating
appliance is being operated.
Non-room-sealed heating appliances (e.g.
gas-, oil-, wood- or coal-burning heaters,
continuous flow heaters or water heaters)
draw in combustion air from the room in which
they are installed and discharge the exhaust
gases outdoors through an exhaust gas
system (e.g. a chimney).
With the extractor hood switched on, air is
extracted from the kitchen and the adjacent
rooms – without an adequate supply of air, the
air pressure falls below atmospheric pressure.
Toxic gases from the chimney or the
extraction shaft are sucked backed into the
living space.
■There must therefore always be an
adequate supply of air.
■A supply-air/air-extraction duct alone is not
sufficient to ensure compliance with the
limit.
It is only possible to safely operate the
appliance if the pressure in the room in which
the heating appliance is installed does not
drop more than 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) below
atmospheric pressure. This can be achieved if
the air needed for combustion is able to enter
through openings that cannot be sealed, for
example through doors, windows, by means of
a supply-air/air-extraction duct or by other
technical means.
The exhaust air must not be conveyed into a
functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue or into
a shaft that is used to ventilate rooms in which
heating appliances are installed.
If the exhaust air is to be conveyed into a non-
functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, you
must obtain the consent of the heating
engineer responsible.
Always consult the heating engineer
responsible. They will be able to assess the
house's entire ventilation setup and suggest
the most appropriate ventilation measures.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the
extractor hood is operated exclusively in air
recirculation mode.
:Warning – Risk of fire!

]Causes of damage
Causes of damage Caution!
■Rough pan bases may scratch the hob.
■Objects that are hard or sharp may damage the hob.
Do not allow hard or sharp objects to fall on the hob.
■Heating cookware when empty may cause surface
damage. Never leave empty cookware on the heat.
■Do not place hot pans on the control panel, the
indicator area, or the hob frame. Doing so may
cause damage.
■Never leave aluminium foil or plastic containers on
hot hotplates as this may damage the hob. No not
use oven liners.
■Using unsuitable cleaning products may cause
surface damage, discolouration and stains. Only use
cleaning products that are suitable for this type of
hob.
■Friction from pots and pans may cause surface
damage and discolouration. Always lift pots and
pans up before repositioning them; do not slide
them across the surface of the hob.
■Burnt-on food may cause surface damage and
staining. Immediately remove any food that has
boiled over using a glass scraper.
■Salt, sugar and sand may cause surface damage.
Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage
space.
■Using cookware with a rough base may cause
surface damage. Check all cookware before use.
■Sugar and foods with a high sugar content may
cause surface damage or conchoidal fracturing.
Immediately remove any food that has boiled over
using a glass scraper.
7Environmental protection
En v i r o n ment al pr ot ect i on In this section, you can find information about saving
energy and disposing of the appliance.
Energy saving tips
■Always use a matching lid for every item of
cookware. Cooking without a lid consumes
significantly more energy. Use a glass lid. Then you
can see into the pan without raising the lid.
■Use cookware with a flat base. Uneven bases
increase the energy consumption.
■Make sure that the diameter of the cookware base
corresponds to the size of the cooking zone. Please
note: Cookware manufacturers often specify the
diameter of the top of the pan, which is usually larger
than the diameter of the base of the pan.
■For small quantities, use small items of cookware.
Using cookware that is large but barely filled
requires a lot of energy.
■Cook with as little water as possible. This saves
energy and preserves the vitamins and minerals in
vegetables.
■Switch to a lower heat setting in good time. This
prevents energy from being wasted.
■During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient
supply of air to enable the ventilation system to work
efficiently and with a low level of operating noise.
■Adjust the fan speed to the amount of cooking
vapour produced during cooking.Only use the
intensive setting if needed. A lower fan speed
consumes less energy.
■If cooking produces large amounts of vapour, select
a higher fan speed in good time. If the cooking
vapour has already spread around the kitchen, the
ventilation system will need to be operated for
longer.
■Switch the appliance off when you are not using it.
■Clean and (if required) replace the filter at regular
intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the
ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning
used electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic equipment -
WEEE). The guideline determines the
framework for the return and recycling of used
appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

en Induction cooking

fInduction cooking
Inducti on cooki ng Advantages of induction cooking
Induction cooking is very different from traditional
cooking methods, as heat builds up directly in the item
of cookware. This offers numerous advantages:
■Saves time when boiling and frying.
■Saves energy.
■Easier to care for and clean. Spilled food does not
burn on as quickly.
■Heat control and safety – the hob increases or
decreases the heat supply as soon as the user
changes the setting. The induction hotplate stops the
heat supply as soon as the cookware is removed
from the hotplate, without having to switch it off first.
Cookware
Only use ferromagnetic cookware for induction cooking,
such as:
■Cookware made from enamelled steel
■Cookware made from cast iron
■Special induction-compatible cookware made from
stainless steel.
To check whether your cookware is suitable for
induction cooking, refer to the section on
~"Cookware check".
To achieve a good cooking result, the ferromagnetic
area on the base of the pan should match the size of
the hotplate. If a hotplate does not detect an item of
cookware, try placing it on another hotplate with a
smaller diameter.
Some induction cookware does not have a fully
ferromagnetic base:
■If the base of the cookware is only partially
ferromagnetic, only the area that is ferromagnetic will
heat up. This may mean that heat will not be
distributed evenly. The non-ferromagnetic area may
not heat up to a sufficient temperature for cooking.
■The ferromagnetic area will also be reduced if the
material from which the base of the cookware is
made contains aluminium, for example. This may
mean that the cookware will not become sufficiently
hot or even that it will not be detected.
Unsuitable pans
Never use diffuser hobs or pans made from:
■common thin steel
■glass
■earthenware
■copper
■aluminium
Properties of the base of the cookware
The material(s) from which the base of the cookware is
made can affect the cooking result. Using pots and
pans made from materials that distribute heat evenly
through them, such as stainless-steel pans with a three-
layer base, saves time and energy.
Use cookware with a flat base; if the base of the
cookware is uneven, this may impair the heat supply.
Absence of pan or unsuitable size
If no pan is placed on the selected hotplate, or if it is
made of unsuitable material or is not the correct size,
the power level displayed on the hotplate indicator will
flash. Place a suitable pan on the hotplate to stop the
flashing. If this takes more than 90 seconds, the
hotplate will switch off automatically.
Empty pans or those with a thin base
Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base.
The hob is equipped with an internal safety system.
However, an empty pan may heat up so quickly that the
"automatic switch off" function may not have time to
react and the pan may reach very high temperatures.
The base of the pan could melt and damage the glass
on the hob. In this case, do not touch the pan and
switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has
cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance
Service.
Pan detection
Each hotplate has a lower limit for pan detection. This
depends on the diameter of the ferromagnetic area of
the cookware and the material from which its base is
made. For this reason, you should always use the
hotplate that best matches the diameter of the base of
the pan.

Chef's recommendations
Recommendations
■When heating up puree, cream soups and thick
sauces, stir occasionally.
■Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating.
■When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting
down as soon as steam escapes between the lid
and the cookware. Steam does not need to escape
for a good cooking result.
■After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until you
serve the food.
■To cook with the pressure cooker, observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
■Do not cook food for too long, otherwise the
nutrients will be lost. The kitchen clock can be used
to set the optimum cooking time.
■For a more healthy cooking result, smoking oil
should be avoided.
■To brown food, fry small portions in succession.
■Cookware may reach high temperatures while the
food is cooking. We recommend that you use oven
gloves.
■You can find recommendations for energy-efficient
cooking in section ~"Environmental protection"
