1.2 General safety precautions
▪Read the operating instructions before using the appliance for
the first time!
▪This appliance can be used by children aged 8 and above

abilities, or lack of experience and/or knowledge, provided
they are supervised or have been instructed on the safe use
of the appliance and have understood the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be undertaken by children without su-
pervision.
▪If an appliance is not equipped with a mains cable and a plug
or other means for disconnecting from the mains with a con-
tact opening on each pole complying with the conditions of
overvoltage category III for full isolation, an isolating device
must be incorporated into the permanently installed electrical
installation in accordance with the installation regulations.

1 Safety precautions
1.3 Appliance-specific safety precautions
▪WARNING: If the surface has a crack running through the
thickness of the material, switch the appliance off and discon-
nect it from the mains to avoid possible electric shock.
▪WARNING: The appliance and its accessible parts get hot
during use. Be careful not to touch the heating elements.
▪Under no circumstances use a steam cleaner to clean the ap-
pliance.
▪Do not place metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons, lids
or aluminium foil on the hob as they can get hot.
▪After use, switch the hob off using the controls and do not
rely on the pan detector.
▪WARNING: It can be dangerous to leave the hob unattended
when cooking with fat or oil, as this can lead to fires. NEVER
attempt to extinguish a fire with water. Instead, switch the ap-
pliance off and then carefully smother the flames with, for ex-
ample, a lid or a fire blanket.
▪WARNING: Never store objects on the hob due to the risk of
fire.
▪WARNING: The cooking process should always be super-
vised. Shorter cooking processes, in particular, must be su-
pervised the entire time.
▪Do not operate the appliance using an external time switch or
a separate remote control system.
1.4 Instructions for use
Before using for the first time
▪The appliance must be installed and connected to the electricity supply in
accordance with the separate installation instructions. Have a qualified fitter/
electrician carry out the necessary work.

1 Safety precautions
Correct use
▪The appliance is designed for use in the home for preparing food. No liabil-
ity is assumed for any damage caused by improper use or incorrect hand-
ling.
▪Any repairs, modifications or manipulations to the appliance, especially any
electrically live parts, may only be carried out by the manufacturer, its Cus-
tomer Services or a similarly qualified person. Repairs if carried out incor-
rectly may cause serious injury, damage to the appliance and fittings, as
well as affect the functioning of the appliance. If the appliance is not work-
ing properly or in case of a repair order, follow the instructions given in the
'Repair service' section. Contact our Customer Services if necessary.
▪Use original spare parts only.
▪Retain these operating instructions for future reference. If you sell the appli-
ance or pass it on to a third party, please ensure these operating instruc-
tions accompany the appliance, together with the installation instructions.
▪The appliance corresponds to recognized technology standards and the rel-
evant safety regulations. However, proper use of the appliance is essential
to avoid damage and accidents. Please therefore follow the precautions
given in these operating instructions.
▪The heated surface will remain hot for some time after it is switched off and
will cool down only slowly to room temperature. Please allow sufficient time
for the appliance to cool down before, for instance, cleaning it.
Note on use
▪Tests have shown that under normal circumstances there is no risk to car-
diac pacemaker users. If, as the user of a cardiac pacemaker (or a hearing
aid or another type of implant), you would like to be reassured that using
the appliance does not pose a risk, you are advised to consult a competent
medical authority.
Caution: Burns hazard
▪Overheated fat and oil can easily catch fire. Never attempt to extinguish
burning oil or fat with water. Danger of explosion! Smother the flames with a
fire blanket. Keep doors and windows closed.
Caution: Risk of injury
▪Keep pets away from the appliance.

1 Safety precautions
Caution: Risk to life
▪Packaging materials, e.g. plastic film and polystyrene, can be dangerous for
children. Danger of suffocation! Keep packaging material away from chil-
dren.
How to avoid damaging the appliance
▪In case of overheating, switch the hotplate off and allow it to cool down
completely. Do not put any dishes on it. Under no circumstances use cold
water to cool it down quickly.
▪Do not climb on to the appliance.
▪Do not put hot cookware on the hob frame in order not to damage the silic-
one joints.
▪Do not cut or prepare food on the surface and avoid impact with hard ob-
jects. Do not drag cookware across the surface.
▪Take particular care that sugary foods or juices do not get onto the hot
cooking zones as it can damage them. If sugary foods or juices do get on
to the hot cooking zones clean away immediately (while still hot) with a
scraper.
▪Pots with pure copper or aluminium bases should not be used for cooking
as they can 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.
▪Sliding pans and cookware across the glass ceramic causes scratches.
This can be largely prevented by lifting pans and cookware up and then pla-
cing them down in position.
▪The hob is designed to be used – signs of use, such as scratches or the
wear and tear from pans and cookware, are normal. The more intensively it
is used, the greater the signs of use; however, the appliance remains in per-
fect working order and therefore does not give a right of complaint. Safety is
guaranteed at all times.
▪There is no such thing as completely scratch-proof glass; scratches can
even develop on sapphire glass, which is used in watches. The glass
ceramic used is of the best quality available on the market.

Packaging
▪All packaging materials (cardboard, plastic film (PE) and polystyrene (EPS))

vironmentally friendly way.
Disconnection
▪Disconnect the appliance from the mains. With a fixed appliance, this is to
be carried out by a qualified electrician!
Safety

cially through children playing.
▪Pull the plug out of the mains socket or have the appliance disconnected
from the mains by an electrician. Then cut the mains cable off flush with the
appliance.

posed of correctly, the raw materials can be recovered for recycling.
