• Remember that if the hob is used on a high setting the heating time
will be very short. Do not leave the hob unattended if you are using
a zone on a high setting.
• Ensure that there is adequate ventilation during use Keep all natural
ventilation openings open.
• Do not allow pans to boil dry. The hob itself is protected against
overheating but the pan will get very hot indeed and could be
damaged. Damage caused by a pan boiling dry is not covered in
the guarantee.
• Do not use the cooking area as storage space.
• Ensure that there is several centimetres clearance between the
bottom of the hob and the contents of the drawer.
• Do not keep anything combustible in the drawer under the hob.
• Make sure that electrical appliance flexes, such as a mixer, cannot
touch the hot cooking zone.
• The zones heat up during use and stay hot for a while afterwards.
Keep young children away from the hob during and immediately
after cooking.
• Never flambé under an extractor hood The high flames could cause
a fire, even if the cooker hood is switched off.
• The ceramic top is extremely strong, but not unbreakable. For example,
a spice jar or sharp utensil falling on it could cause it to break.
• Never put any metal objects such as baking trays, biscuit tins,
saucepan lids or cutlery on the hob. These can heat up extremely
quickly and cause burns.
• Keep magnetizable objects (credit cards, bank cards, floppy disks,
etc.) away from the appliance. We advise those with pacemakers to
first consult a heart specialist.
• Never use a pressure cleaner or steam cleaner to clean the hob.
• As soon as you remove a pan from the hob, the cooking activity
stops automatically. Accustom yourself to switching off the
cooking zone or hob manually to avoid activating the cooking zone
accidentally.
• A small object such as a pan that is too small (diameter of base
smaller than 12 cm), a fork or a spoon, will not be recognised by
the appliance. The zone's display continues to flash the setting and
the cooking zone is not activated.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an
external timer or separate remote-control system.
