Risk of fire!
Unattended cooking on a hob with fat or oil
can be dangerous and may result in fire. Hot
oil ignites readily.
Z Prepare food with plenty of fat (such as
fries) only under constant supervision.
Z Never try to extinguish fire with water.
Z In the case of a fire, switch off the
appliance and cover flame e.g. with a lid or
with a fire blanket.
To avoid damaging the appliance
Z In the case of thermal failure, switch the
solid plate off and allow to cool down
completely. Do not put any dishes on it.
Do not cool with cold water under any
circumstances.
Z Do not climb onto the appliance.
Z To avoid damaging the silicon grouting, do
not put hot cookware on the frame.
Z Do not cut or prepare food on the surface
or drop hard objects onto it. Do not drag
cookware across the surface.
Z Make sure than no sugary foods or juices
end up on the hot cooking zones. This can
damage the surface. If sugary foods or
juices do end up on the hot cooking zones,
remove these immediately with a glass
ceramic hob scraper (while the hob is still
hot).
Z Do not leave the appliance unattended
during operation.
Pots with pure copper or aluminium leave
behind traces that can be difficult to clean. If
the traces are not removed immediately after
cooking with a suitable cleaning agent, they
can be permanently burned on and therefore
permanently ruin the visual appearance of the
appliance.
Z Do not use pots with pure copper or
aluminium bases for cooking.
Sliding pots and cookware across the glass
ceramic causes scratches.
Z Avoid scratches by lifting pots and
cookware when putting them into place.
The hob is an item for daily use: signs of
usage such as scratches or visible material
abrasion from pots or cookware are normal.
Intensive use leads to more distinctive signs of
usage. In such cases, the appliance continues
to function perfectly and a complaint is not
justified. Safety is always guaranteed.
