with reduced physical sensory, mental
capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge must not use the appliance. They
must have supervision or instruction for the
operation of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.

jury.
• Keep children away from the appliance dur-
ing and after the operation, until the appli-
ance is cold.
Safety during operation
• Remove all packaging, stickers and layers
from the appliance before the first use.
• Set the cooking zones to "off" after each use.

will avoid risks to person or property.
• Use only cookware with a bottom diameter
applicable to the dimensions of the cooking
zones. There is a risk of overheating and rup-
ture of the glass plate (if applicable).
• Do not use cookware with a diameter smaller
than the cooking zone dimension - the pan
handle can become hot because of the heat.
• Pots must not be too near to the control
zone.
• Do not use the appliance as a work or a stor-
age surface.
• Never use unstable cookware to prevent

Operation
To switch on and increase the heat setting turn
the knob counterclockwise. To decrease the
heat setting turn the knob clockwise. To switch
off turn the knob to the 0.
Power indicator is activated when either of the
zones are turned on, and will stay on until the
cooking zones are switched off.
Before first use
Put cookware containing water on each cook-
ing zone, set the maximum position and operate
the appliance for 10 min. This is to burn off the
residue in the appliance. After that, operate the
appliance at minimum position for 20 min. Dur-
ing this period, an odour and smoke can occur.
This is normal. Make sure that the airflow is suf-
ficient.
After this operation, clean the appliance with a
soft cloth soaked in warm water.
Rapid hot plate
A red dot in the middle of the plate shows a
rapid hot plate. A rapid hot plate heats up faster
than usual plates.
The red dot is painted on the surface and can
come off after some time. It does not have an
effect on the performance of the appliance.
The rapid hot plate can smoke and make an
odour when you use it for the first time. The
smoke and an odour will go off after a while.
Helpful hints and tips
Cookware
• The bottom of the cookware must be as
thick and flat as possible.
Warning! Pots must not enter the control
zone.
Energy saving
• If possible, always put the lids on the
cookware.
• Put cookware on a solid hotplate before
you start it.
• Stop the solid hotplate before the end
of the cooking time to use residual heat.
• For satisfactory results, the bottom of
pans must have the same dimensions
(or slightly larger) as solid hotplates. Do
not use smaller pans.

which contains starch), acrylamides can pose a
health risk. Thus, we recommend that you cook
at the lowest temperatures and do not brown
food too much.

steam blasters or high-pressure cleaners.
The stainless steel can become tarnished if it is
too much heated. Refer to this you must not
cook with potstones, earthenware pans or cast
iron plates. Do not use aluminium foil to prevent
damage the top during operation.
Stainless steel parts wash with water, and then
dry with a soft cloth.
Scratches or dark stains have no effect on
how the appliance operates.

1. Use the fine scouring powder or a scouring
pad to remove the dirt.
2. Clean the appliance with a damp cloth and
some detergent.
3. Heat the hotplate to a low temperature and
leave to dry.
4. To maintain the hotplates, rub in a little
sewing machine oil now and again and
then polish off with absorbent paper.
Important! For stainless steel edges of the
hob use cleaner for stainless steel.
The stainless steel edge of the plate can
be slightly discoloured as a result of the
thermal load.
