Important instructions and warnings
for safety and environment
Do not use steam cleaners to clean
•
the appliance as this may cause an
electric shock.
Unattended cooking on a hob with
•
fat or oil can be dangerous and
may result in fire. NEVER try to
extinguish a fire with water, but
switch off the appliance and then
cover flame e.g. with a lid or a fire
blanket.
Danger of fire: Do not store items
•
on the cooking surfaces.
If the surface is cracked, switch off
•
the appliance to avoid the possibil-
ity of electric shock.
After use, switch off the hob ele-
•
ment by its control and do not rely
on the pan detector.
Metallic objects such as knives,
•
forks, spoons and lids should not
be placed on the hob surface since
they can get hot.
The appliance is not intended to
•
be operated by means of an exter-
nal timer or separate remote-con-
trol system.
Vapour pressure that build up due to
•
the moisture on the hob surface or
at the bottom of the pot can cause
the pot to move. Therefore, make
sure that the oven surface and bot-
tom of the pots are always dry.

Hotplates are equipped with "In-
•
duction" technology. Your induc-
tion hob that provides both time
and money savings must be used
with pots suitable for induction
cooking; otherwise hotplates will
not operate. See.General informa-
tion about cooking, page 14, se-
lecting the pots.
As induction hobs create a mag-
•
netic field, they may cause harm-
ful impacts for people who use
devices such as insulin pump or
pacemaker.
Use only hob guards designed by
•
the manufacturer of the cooking
appliance or indicated by the man-
ufacturer of the appliance in the
instructions for use as suitable or
hob guards incorporated in the ap-
pliance. The use of inappropriate
guards can cause accidents.
Prevention against possible fire
•
risk!
Ensure all electrical connections
•
are secure and tight to prevent risk
of arcing.
Do not use damaged cables or ex-
•
tension cables.
Ensure liquid or moisture is not
•
accessible to the electrical con-
nection point.
