For the hob
•Owing to the very fast reaction at the high power setting (max. power setting), do not use the induction hob without supervision!
•When cooking, pay attention to the
•Do not place empty pots and pans on cooking zones which have been switched on.
•Take care when using simmering pans for the simmering water may dry up unnoticed, resulting in damage to the pot and to the hob, in the event of which no liability will be assumed.
•Immediately switch off the cooking zone after using with the respective sensor key ON/OFF 
and not just by pan recog- nition.
•Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Prepare meals with greases and oils only under control. Never extingu- ish ignited fats and oils with water! Put the lid on the pan and switch off the cooking zone.
•The glass ceramic hob is extremely robust. Avoid dropping hard objects onto the glass ceramic hob. Pointed objects fal- ling onto your hob might break it.
•If cracks, fractures or any other defects appear in your glass ceramic hob, immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect fuse immediately and call the Customer service.
•If the hob cannot be switched off due to a defect in the sensor control immediately disconnect your appliance and call the Customer service.
•Take care when working with attachments! The connecting cable must not contact the hot cooking zones.
•The glass ceramic hob should not be used as a storage area.
•Do not put kitchen foil or plastic onto the cooking zones. Keep everything which could melt, such as plastics, foil and in parti- cular sugar and sugary foods away from the hot cooking zone. Remove sugar immediately from the hob when it is still hot with a scraper to avoid damage
•Metal objects, e.g. kitchen utensils, cutlery, must not be left on the surface of the induction hob as they can become hot.
•Do not place combustible, volatile or heat deformable objects directly underneath the hob.
•Take care with metal objects which are worn on the body if they come into the direct vicinity of the induction hob as they can become hot.
•Do not heat any unopened food cans or laminated packing on the hob. There is a risk of bursting!
•Be especially careful to keep the sensor keys clean since soi- ling could be mistaken for finger contact by the appliance. Never put anything (pans, tea towels etc.) onto the sensor keys!
If food boils over onto the sensor keys, we advise you to acti- vate the OFF key.
•Hot pans should not cover the sensor keys, otherwise the appliance switches itself off automatically. In this case the oven automatically shuts off.
•If there are any pets in the apartment which could come near the hob, activate the childproof lock.
•The induction hob may not be used when the pyrolysis mode is in operation.
