each hotplate and the level it is set at.
It is possible that to raise the level of
a large hotplate that of several smaller
ones must be turned down.
If you use the quick switch-on at
maximum power function and the said
value is above the value set by the
limit, the hotplate will be set to the
maximum possible level. The hob will
beep and the said power value will
blink twice on the indicator (3).
Safety switch off function
If due to an error one or several hea-
ting zones do not switch off, the
appliance will be automatically di-
sconnected after a set amount of time

* Depends on model
When the "safety switch off" function
has been triggered, a 0 is displayed if
the glass surface temperature is not
dangerous for the user or an H if there
is a burn risk.
Keep the control panel of the
heating areas clean and dry at all
times.
In the event of operating pro-
blems or incidents not mentioned
in this manual, disconnect the ap-
pliance and contact the TEKA tech-
nical service.
Suggestions and
recommendations
* Use pots or pans with thick, com-
pletely flat bottoms.
* Pots/pans with a smaller diameter
than the shown heating area are
not recommended.
* Do not slide pots and pans over the
glass because they could scratch it.
* Although the glass can take knocks
from large pots and pans without
sharp edges, try not to knock it.
* To avoid damaging the ceramic
glass surface, do not drag pots
and pans over the glass and keep
the undersides of them clean and
in good condition.
Try not to spill sugar or pro-
ducts containing sugar on the glass
as while the surface is hot these
could damage it.

the bottle. Dirt that is firmly stuck due to
being burned repeatedly can be re-
moved using a scraper with a blade.
Slight tinges of colour are caused by
pots and pans with dry grease residue
underneath or due to grease between
the glass and the pot during cooking.
These can be removed using a nickel
scourer with water or a special cleaner
for ceramic hot plates. Plastic objects,
sugar or food containing a lot of sugar
that have melted onto the surface
must be removed immediately using
a scraper.
Metallic sheens are caused by drag-
ging metal pots and pans over the
glass. These can be removed by
cleaning thoroughly using a special
cleaner for ceramic glass hot plates,
although you may need to repeat the
cleaning process several times.
Warning:
Handle the glass scraper ca-
refully. The blade could cause
injury!
If you use the scraper incor-
rectly, the blade could break and a
fragment could get caught between
the surrounding trim and the glass.
If this happens, do not try to remo-
ve it using your hands, carefully use
tweezers or a knife with a fine edge.
(See fig. 3)
Only use the blade on the ce-
ramic surface, avoiding the scraper
casing coming into contact with the
glass because this could scratch it.
Use blades in perfect condi-
tion. Immediately replace the blade
if it is damaged in any way.
After you have finished with
the scraper, withdraw the blade and
lock it. (See fig. 4)

Using the scraper
Blade protected Blade unprotected
A pot or pan may become
stuck to the glass due to a product
having melted between them. Do
not try to lift the pot while the hea-
ting zone is cold! This could break
the glass.
Do not step on the glass or
lean on it as it could break and
cause injury. Do not use the glass
as a surface for placing objects.
