IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Damage protection
Never place hot pots or pans on the touch controls, this may damage the electronics.
Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface of the cooktop. Even lightweight objects may cause damage.
Do not use pots or pans with pronounced edges or ridges on the ceramic cooktop. These could scratch the cooktop permanently. See "Cookware" for more information. Grains of salt and sand can cause scratches. Make sure that the bases of any pots and pans are clean, free of any fat or oils, and are dry.
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, pieces of plastic or foil to fall on the burners when they are hot. If these residues are allowed to cool on the ceramic surface pitting or even cracking may occur.
Any spills should be removed as quickly as possible to prevent them from burning on and becoming difficult to remove.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.
