Important
Information
for
Wearers of Heart Pacemakers,
Hearing
Aids
and
Metallic
Implants
■
Induction hobs generate a high
frequency electromagnetic field in
the area of the cooking zones.
Directly approaching the cooking
zones could therefore negatively
influence or cause malfunctioning of
heart pacemakers, hearing aids or
metallic implants under unfavourable
circumstances.
■
Tests have shown that there are no
risks
for
wearers
of
heart
pacemakers
under
normal
conditions. If you, as a wearer of a
heart pacemaker (or a hearing aid or
other
implant)
want
to
make
absolutely sure that the use of the
appliance is absolutely safe for you,
you should consult the responsible,
competent medical department.
How to Avoid Damage to the
Appliance
The surface of the cooking zone is
insensitive to heat (up to 650 °C)
and temperature fluctuations and
resistant to impact and scratching
within
reasonable
limits.
Nevertheless, please observe the
following notes to avoid damage.
■
Switch off the appliance in case of
overheating and allow it to cool
down. Never cool with cold water!
■
Do not stand on the appliance.
■
A sudden impact, e.g. dropping a
salt cellar, can damage the surface.
Such objects should not be kept
above the appliance.
■
Do not operate the appliance for
long periods with empty cookware.
■
Make sure that the bottom of the
cookware and the surface of the
cooking zones are clean and dry
before every use.
5
Safety Notes
g
■
Avoid cooking enamel pots empty.
The bottoms could be damaged and
scratch the cooking surface when
moved. Bottoms of pots and pans
with edges and burrs also have an
abrasive effect.
■
Do not prepare vegetables and fruit
(peel, cut, etc.) on the surface. Fine
particles of dirt or hard objects can
damage
the
surface
of
the
appliance.
■
Do not use the appliance as a
storage surface. In particular, do not
place any inflammable materials,
cardboard or plastic packagings on
it.
■
Make sure that no foods or juices
containing sugar get onto hot
cooking zones. This can damage the

Function of Induction Hobs
Induction hobs are fast reacting, finely controllable,
powerful, economical and safe.
Their functional principle differs considerably from
conventional hobs or hotplates. The induction coil
under the glass ceramic bowl generates a fast
changing magnetic field which heats up the
magnetisable bottom of the cookware directly.
The use of cookware with magnetisable
bottoms is a prerequisite for working with an
induction hob.
The glass ceramic bowl stays relatively cool
because only the hot cookware is heated up.
The power is immediately interrupted when the
cookware is removed from the cooking zone.
Residual Heat Indicator
An
H
H
H
H
is displayed in the assigned cooking zone
display after switching off for as long as there is
still a risk of serious burns.
Cookware
The bottom of the cookware may not
have sharp grooves or sharp edges. Cast
iron cookware may only be used if it has
a smooth surface.
Only use cookware suitable for induction hobs.
This is usually marked by the manufacturer on the
bottom.
The wok is normally suitable for induction if
a magnet sticks to the bottom of the wok.
We recommend you to check the wok before
buying.
You appliance is able to recognise a suitable wok.
►
Place the wok on the cooking zone and switch it
on.
─
If the set power stage stays in the display,
the wok is suitable.
─
A
v
v
v
v

.
No higher power stage than
7
7
7
7
should be set
for woks with a plastic coating (e.g. Teflon).
The coating could otherwise be overheated
and damaged.
Cookware can make noises during operation. This
is not a sign of malfunctioning. The function of the
appliance is not impaired in any way.
Your wok must be made from a material
that loses its magnetic effect at rising
temperature (Curie effect).
If you use other woks, there is a danger
that fat or food will overheat and start
burning!

Care and Maintenance
g
Cleaning
Let the appliance cool down before
cleaning.
Make sure that no cooking zone is
accidentally in operation during and after
cleaning.
Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning!
Cleaning the Glass Ceramic Surface
Early cleaning of the glass ceramic surface will
save difficult removal of stubborn soiling later.
Dried and burnt remains require a greater cleaning
effort.
►
Only use a soft cloth or sponge, water and a
cleaning or care agent suitable for glass
ceramic surfaces to clean the glass ceramic
surface. It is recommended to use products with
a protective effect. The resulting film largely
protects the surface against stubborn stains
and damage to the markings.
Never clean the glass ceramic surface with
abrasive cleaning agents, scratchy all-
purpose sponges, metal wool etc. This can
damage the glass ceramic surface.
Do not use chemically aggressive cleaning
agents such as oven sprays or stain
removers either.
►
Remove spillage immediately.
►
Remove light soiling with a damp cloth and
washing up liquid.
►
Remove heavier soiling (sauce, soup stains
etc.) by applying a cleaning agent to the hob
surface with a clean cloth or sponge and
rubbing.
Observe
the
cleaning
agent
manufacturer's instructions.
►
Encrusted over-boiled milk and foods not
containing sugar can be removed both warm
(not heat!) and cold. Never scrape off encrusted
remains with serrated knives, metal wool or
similar.
►
Remove
lime
scale
stains
(yellowish
discolouration) with small amounts of lime
dissolving agents (e.g. vinegar, lemon juice, de-
scaler). Let the agent soak in for longer for
heavier stains. Then wipe off with a clean,
damp cloth.
Improper cleaning can damage the markings or the
glass ceramic surface.
Cleaning the Stainless Steel Parts
Clean the stainless steel parts after every use.
Early cleaning of the surface will save difficult
removal of stubborn soiling later.
►
Always clean stainless steel parts in the
direction of the grind, never by circular
movements.
►
Only use a soft cloth or sponge, water and a
suitable cleaning or care agent to clean the
stainless steel parts.
Caution: These cleaning agents may not be
used.
Never clean the stainless steel parts with
abrasive cleaning agents, scratchy all-
purpose sponges, metal wool etc. The
surface and the markings could be
damaged.
Chemically aggressive cleaning agents such
as oven sprays or stain removers and rust
removers and cleaners for the dish washer
may not be used either.
In addition, do not use cleaning agents that
contain soda, lyes, ammonia, acids or
chlorides.
Make sure that the cleaning agent that you
use does not contain chlorides, acids, salts
or
similarly
aggressive
ingredients.
Otherwise they might attack the surface of
the product.
