Preventing scratches and stains
Do not use abrasive cleaners or sponges that could scratch the cooktop.
Do not use chlorine-based bleach, ammonia, or other cleaners not expressly recommended for
cleaning the glass- ceramic surface.
Do not use glass cookware as it could scratch the cooktop surface.
Do not place a wok ring on the cooktop, as it could damage or scratch the cooktop.
Make sure the cooktop and the pan bottom are always clean.
Do not slide metal cookware across the cooktop.
Do not use dirty cloths to clean your cooktop. They will leave behind a layer of dirt that could
cause permanent stains on the cooktop.
Preventing other damage
Do not place plastic objects, sugar or food with high sugar content onto the cooking zone. If this
happens, immediately clean the cooktop.
Do not cook food directly on the cooktop.
Always use suitable cookware.
Operating the cooktop
WARNING!
DANGER OF FIRE: Never leave the area in which the cooktop is used unsupervised. Always
supervise the cooking process. Do not store any items on the cooktop surface. Failure
to observe these instructions could lead to fire, severe injuries, or death.
INFORMATION!
Before using the cooktop, clean the glass-ceramic surface using a damp cloth and some mild
cleaner safe for the cooktop surface. During initial use, a characteristic "New appliance smell"
may appear; it will gradually disappear.
Do not use aggressive cleaners, such as abrasive cleaners that could cause scratches, abrasive
dishwashing sponges, or stain removers.
Use only cleaners safe for cooktop surfaces.
Switching on the cooking zone
Dual and Triple Surface units (on some models)
An additional heater ring can be activated for some cooking zones (depending on the model). Push
the knob inwards and rotate it in any direction to the desired position.
Hot surface indicator
When on, the indicator light warns that the cooking zone is hot (danger of burns). The hot surface
indicator will remain lit when the cooking zone is switched off until the cooktop cools down to
approximately 150 °F.
Switch on the cooking zones using the knobs on the control panel. A
surface ON indicator light will glow when any surface unit is on. The
symbols indicate the respective cooking zones that the knobs control.
Push the knob inwards and rotate it in any direction to the setting you
want.
