• If food boils over onto the sensor keys, we
advise you to activate the OFF key.
• Hot pans and pots should not cover resp.
be moved to close to the sensor keys, since
this will cause the appliance to switch off
automatically.
• Place the pan as close to the centre of the
cooking zone as possible.
• Whenever possible, use the back cooking
zones for large pans so that the sensor keys
are not heated up too much (touch control
overheating; error message E2, touch control
cut off ).
• Activate the childproof lock if there are any
pets in the home which could make contact
with the hob.
• The induction hob may not be used when
pyrolysis operation is taking place in a built-in
oven.
• Never clean the glass ceramic plate with a
steam cleaner or any similar appliance!
• Make sure there are no items (e.g. cleaning
cloths) right next to the hob extractor. They
could be sucked in by the air current. Liquids
and small items must always be kept away
from the appliance.
• Do not operate the appliance without grease
fi lter.
• Filter with too much fat deposits causes fi re
hazard!
• Constant supervision is essential when deep-
frying; fl ambéing is not permitted.
• A suffi cient supply of inlet air must be provided
when operating wood, coal, gas or oil heaters
requiring a chimney. The permissible negative
pressure which results from the hood in the
location of the heaters requiring a chimney
may not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) as this
results in a risk of poisoning.
• Vapour also emits moisture into the air in the
kitchen during the cooking process.
• Only a little moisture is removed from the
vapours in the convection air mode. This is
why a suffi cient supply of fresh air must always
be provided, e.g. by opening the window or
using domestic ventilation systems.

Safety Instructions and Warnings
• Always make sure that the indoor climate is
normal and comfortable (45 - 60 % humidity).
• Switch the hob extractor down to a lower
setting for around 20 minutes or activate the
automatic delayed stop function every time
the hob extractor is used in the convection
air mode. This is a standard function of the
induction hob. See the section on "Automatic
fan run".
2.3 For persons

the appliance and have understood the risks
relating to the appliance. Children may not play

• The surfaces of the heating and cooking zones
become hot during use. Keep small children

• Only hob protective grids and hob covers
produced by the hob manufacturer or the

• Persons with cardiac pacemakers or implanted
insulin pumps must make sure that their
implants are not aff ected by the induction hob

20-50 kHz). In this case, always consult your
doctor/cardiologist. He will tell you whether you
are allowed to use the induction hob or not!
