Safety during use
• Remove stickers and film from the glass ceramic.
• There is the risk of burns from the appliance if used carelessly.
• Cables from electrical appliances must not touch the hot surface of the appli-
ance or hot cookware.
• Overheated fats and oils can ignite very quickly. Warning! Fire hazard!
• Switch the cooking zones off after each use.
• Users with implanted pacemakers should keep their upper body at least 30 cm
from induction cooking zones that are switched on.
• Risk of burns! Do not place objects made of metal, such as knives, forks,
spoons and saucepan lids on the cooking surface, as they can get hot.
Safety when cleaning
• For cleaning, the appliance must be switched off and cooled down.
• For safety reasons, the cleaning of the appliance with steam jet or high-pres-
sure cleaning equipment is not permitted.
How to avoid damage to the appliance
• The glass ceramic can be damaged by objects falling onto it.
• The edge of the glass ceramic can be damaged by being knocked by the cook-
ware.
• Cookware made of cast iron, cast aluminium or with damaged bottoms can
scratch the glass ceramic if pushed across the surface.
• Objects that melt and things that boil over can burn onto the glass ceramic
and should be removed straightaway.
• Do not use the cooking zones with empty cookware or without cookware.
• To avoid damaging cookware and glass ceramics, do not allow saucepans or
frying pans to boil dry.
• The ventilation gap of 5mm between the worktop and front of the unit un-
derneath it must not be covered.

Warning! Risk of burns from residual heat. After being switched off, the cook-
ing zones need some time to cool down. Look at the residual heat indicator
.
Residual heat can be used for melting and keeping food warm.
The induction cooking zones create the heat required for cooking directly in
the base of the cookware. The glass ceramic is merely heated by the residual
heat of the cookware.
The cooling fan switches itself on and off depending upon the temperature of
the electronics.

matic warm-up function sets the cooking zone to the highest setting for a cer-
tain period of time and then automatically switches back to the cooking setting
that was originally set.

If the power function has ended, the cooking zones automatically switch back to
the heat setting set previously.
Power Management
The cooking zones of the cooking surface
have a maximum power available to them.
Two cooking zones make up a pair (see fig-
ure).
So that the Power function can always be
carried out, Power Management may re-
duce the power of the other cooking zone
in the pair
Example: heat setting 9 is selected on a
cooking zone. The Power function is
switched on for the cooking zone paired up
with it. The Power function is performed,
but heat setting 9 on one cooking zone and Power function on the other cook-
ing zone of a pair exceeds the maximum output for both. Therefore Power Man-
agement reduces the first cooking zone that was switched on from 9 to 7, for
example, and the display for this cooking zone alternates between 9 and 7 and
then remains on the current maximum of 7. (Whether the display alternates be-
tween 9 and 7 or 9 and 6 or other values, depends on the appliance type and the
size of the cooking zone.)

3 Information on acrylamides
According to the latest scientific knowledge, intensive browning of food, espe-
cially in products containing starch, can constitute a health risk due to acryla-
mides. Therefore we recommend cooking at the lowest possible temperatures
and not browning foods too much.
20 Tips on Cooking and Frying
Cookware
• You can recognise good cookware from the bottoms of the pans. The bottom
should be as thick and flat as possible.
• Cookware made of enamelled steel or with aluminium or copper bottoms can
leave discolorations on the glass ceramic surface which are difficult or impos-
sible to remove.

Cookware for induction cooking zones is labelled as suitable by the manufacturer.
Suitability test
Cookware is suitable for induction cooking, if …
• ... a little water on an induction cooking zone set to heat setting 9 is heated
within a short time.
• ... a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware.
Certain cookware can make noises when being used on induction cooking zones.
These noises are not a fault in the appliance and do not affect operation in any
way.
Bottom of the cookware
The bottom of the cookware should be as thick and flat as possible.
Pan size
Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the size of the bottom of the
cookware up to a certain point. However the magnetic part of the bottom of the
cookware must have a minimum diameter depending on the size of the cooking
zone.
