will be stored in the vitroceramic glass
called residual heat. The appliance can
calculate roughly how hot this glass is. If
the calculated temperature is higher than
+ 60 ° C, then this will be indicated in the
corresponding heater display for as long as
the calculated temperature remains above
+ 60 ° C, even after the appliance has been
switched off.
The residual heat indicator has the lowest
priority and is overwritten by every other
display value, including during safety
switch-off and the displaying of an error
code. When voltage is supplied to the hob
after a power interruption, the residual heat
display indicator will flash. If a heater had a
residual heat of greater than + 60 °C before
the power interruption occurred, the display
will flash while the residual heat remains
or until the heater is selected for another
cooking operation.
Hints and Tips
Important: When ceramic heaters are
operated in higher heat settings, the
heated areas may be seen switching
on and off. This is due to a safety device,
which prevents the glass from overheating.
This is normal at high temperatures,
causing no damage to the hob and little
delay in cooking times.
WARNING:
•
Never operate the hob without
pans on the cooking zone.
•
Use only flat saucepans with a
sufficiently thick base.
•
Make sure the bottom of the pan is dry
before placing it on the hob.
•
While the cooking zone is in operation,
it is important to ensure that the pan is
centred correctly above the zone.
•
In order to conserve energy, never use
a pan with a different diameter to the
hotplate being used.
Small Saucepan
Diameter
•
Do not use saucepans with rough
bottoms since these can scratch the
glass ceramic surface.
•
If possible, always place lids on the
pans to avoid heat loss.
•
The temperature of accessible parts
may become high while the appliance
is operating. Keep children and animals
well away from the hob during operation
and until it has fully cooled after
operation.
•
If you notice a crack on the cooktop,
it must be switched off immediately
and replaced by authorised service
personnel.
5. CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
5.1 CleaninG
WARNING: Switch off the appliance
and allow it to cool before cleaning is
to be carried out.
General Instructions
•
Check whether the cleaning materials
are appropriate and recommended by
the manufacturer before use on your
appliance.
•
Use cream cleaners or liquid cleaners
which do not contain particles. Do not
use caustic (corrosive) creams, abrasive
cleaning powders, rough wire wool or
hard tools as they may damage the
cooker surfaces.
