Safety During Use
•This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.
•Do not use the hob to heat the room.
•Take care when plugging electric appliances into mains sockets near the hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot surface.
•Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).
•Switch off the cooking zones after use.
Special Notes on Induction Cooking Zones
•Scientific studies have shown that patients who are fitted with im- planted pacemakers are not normally affected or put at risk by our induction cooking zones.
The distance between the body and the cooking zone should, howev- er, never be less than 30 cm!
•Electromagnetic fields can affect electronic circuits and interfere with portable transistor radios.
•Do not put magnetically rechargeable objects (e.g., credit cards, cas- settes) on the ceramic glass surface while one or more induction cooking zones are in use!
•Do not put any metallic objects (e.g., spoons, pan lids) on the induc- tion surface as they can be warmed up when the induction surface is in use.
3 Some cookware can produce noises when used on induction cooking zones. This is not a fault in the hob and its function will not be im- paired in any way as a result.
Safety When Cleaning
•For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high pressure cleaner.
•Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning in- structions in this manual.
