Safety Hints

Before you switch the hob on, make sure you know which control keys control the required cooking zone. We advise you to set the pan over the cooking zone before switching it on.

Do not use pots and pans with rough bases (pay attention to cookware made of cast-iron). Rough bases can damage the glass surface of the hob (scratches).

Always ensure that the base of your saucepan is clean and dry before placing on the hob.

Pots with aluminium bottoms may leave silver streaks or spots on the hob.

Do not leave wet or damp lids on the hob.

The glass-ceramic surface and pans must be clean. Carefully eliminate any food remains (especially containing sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a cleansing agent.

Pan handles should never stand out beyond the kitchen worktop, as there is a great danger of knocking the pan over. This will also ensure that children cannot reach them.

Do not use the hob if the glass surface is broken or cracked in any way. Please disconnect the hob from the mains and contact the after-sales service.

Do not lean over the cooking plate when in use.

Do not lay cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface when it is hot.

Remember that the surface remains hot for a long time (about 30 min.) after the cooking plate has been switched off.

Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.

Never use the glass surface for storage.
