THE KEY FEATURES OF YOUR APPLIANCE
• Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic
glass cooking surface and four rapid - response cooking zones.
The hob’s powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten
the amount of time required for the zones to heat up.
• Touch control sensors: Your appliance is operated using
touch control sensors.
• Easy cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking
surface and the control sensors is their accessibility for
cleaning. The smooth, flat surface is easy to clean.
• On/O sensor: The “On/O” control sensor provides the
appliance with a separate mains switch. Touching this sensor
switches the power supply on or o completely.
• Control and function indicators: Digital displays and indicator
lights provide information about settings and activated
functions, as well as the presence of residual heat in the various
cooking zones.
• Safety shuto: A safety shuto ensures that cooking zones
switch o automatically after a period of time if the setting has
not been changed.
• Residual heat indicator: An icon for residual heat appears in
the display if the cooking zone is so hot that there is a risk of
burning.
CTR264KC01_XFA DG68-00446A-02_EN.indd 16 2016-09-02 �� 1:29:03

SAFETY SHUTOFF
If one of the cooking zones is not switched o or the heat setting
is not adjusted after an extended period of time, that particular
cooking zone will automatically switch itself o.
Any residual warmth will be indicated with (for “hot”) in the
digital displays corresponding to the particular cooking zones.
The cooking zones switch themselves o at the following times.
Heat setting Switch o
1-3 After 6 hours
4-6 After 5 hours
7-9 After 3 hours
10-15 After 1 hours
If the Hob is overheated because of abnormal operation,
will be displayed.
And the Hob will be switched o.
Should one or more of the cooking zones switch o
before the indicated time has elapsed, see the section
“Troubleshooting”.
Other reasons why a cooking zone will switch itself o
All cooking zones will immediately switch themselves o if
liquid boils over and lands on the control panel.
The automatic shuto will also be activated if you place a
damp cloth on the control panel. In both of these instances,
the appliance will need to be switched on again using the
main On/O control sensor after the liquid or the cloth
has been removed.

RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR
When an individual cooking zone or the hob is turned o, the
presence of residual heat is shown with an (for “hot”) in the
digital display of the appropriate cooking zones. Even after the
cooking zone has been switched o, the residual heat indicator
goes out only after the cooking zone has cooled.
You can use the residual heat for thawing or keeping food warm.
As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there is a
risk of burns.
If the power supply is interrupted, the symbol will go out
and information about residual heat will no longer be available.
However, it may still be possible to burn yourself. This can be
avoided by always taking care when near the hob
TEMPERATURE DETECTION
If for any reason the temperatures on any of the cooking zones
were to exceed the safety levels, should this happen then the
cooking zone will automatically reduce to a lower power level.
before you begin
INITIAL CLEANING
Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and ceramic
cooktop glass cleaner.
Do not use caustic or abrasive cleaners. The surface could be
damaged.

USING SUITABLE COOKWARE
Better pans produce better results.
• You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should
be as thick and flat as possible.
• When buying new pans, pay particular attention to the diameter
of the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the
upper rim.
• Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic
discolouration on the ceramic glass surface. The discolouration
is very difficult or impossible to remove.
• Do not use pans which have damaged bases with rough edges
or burrs. Permanent scratching can occur if these pan are slid
across the surface.
• When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards
(concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex).
• If you wish to use a special type of pan, for example, a pressure
cooker, a simmering pan, or a wok, please observe the
manufacturer’s instructions.
