Cooking using a water bath involves cooking food
inside a pot which is in turn placed in another larger
pan which contains water. In this way, the food is
heated gently and constantly and it is the hot water,
not the direct heat of the hotplate, which cooks the
food. When cooking food using a water bath, avoid
resting tins, glass jars or containers made from other
materials directly on the base of the pan which
contains the water, to avoid breaking the glass in both
the hob and the container as a result of the hotplate
reheating.
Risk of burns! Do not touch the hot areas of the hob. It
is imperative that children keep away from the
appliance.
It may cause a fire! Never rest flammable objects on
the cooking hob.
It may cause a fire! If there is a drawer below the coo
king hob, this should not be used to store any flam
mable objects or sprays.
Risk of injuries! If there is any liquid between the base
of the pan and the hotplate this could generate steam
pressure. As a result, the pan could jump
unexpectedly. Always ensure that the hotplate and
the base of the pan are kept dry.
Risk of electrocution! Disconnect the appliance from
the mains if the cooking hob is broken or cracked.
Notify the After-Sales Service.
Risk of burns! Disconnect the hotplate if the indicator
does not work. Notify the After-Sales Service.
Risk of fire. If the hob switches itself off and can then
no longer be used, it may unexpectedly switch itself
on later. In order to prevent this, disconnect the hob
from the power supply. To do so, switch off the circuit
breaker in the fuse box. Call the after sales service.
Risk of burns! Do not leave cutlery, lids or other metal
objects on the hob as they can heat up very quickly.
