SAFETY
Induction cooking is extremely safe. Because the heat is generated in the
pan and the ceramic plate will not get hotter than the contents of the
pan, the chance that you will burn yourself on the hob is very slight.
However, there are, as with any other hob, a number of matters of which
you should be aware.
Connecting and repair
– This appliance should only be connected to the mains supply by a
qualified electrician.
– Never open the casing of the appliance. Only authorised personnel
may open the appliance or carry out work on the mains power
supply. The power supply must be disconnected before the appliance
is cleaned or repaired. Preferably, by removing the plug from the
socket, switching off the (automatic) fuse(s) or setting the switch in
the supply cable to zero in the case of a fixed connection.
– Do not continue to use an appliance whose cooking surface is
showing a break or cracks. Switch the appliance off immediately.
Disconnect it from the power supply to avoid electric shocks and
contact your service agent.
First use
– When you use the hob for the first time, you will notice that it smells
'new'. This is caused by the appliance's finish heating up. It is
perfectly normal. The odour will disappear of its own accord as a
result of ventilation.
Ensure that there is adequate ventilation during use
– Keep natural ventilation openings open.
If there is a drawer under the hob
– Ensure that there is a sufficient gap between the hob and the contents
of the drawer.
– Do not place any flammable objects in the drawer.

Use of other equipment near the hob
– Make sure that cables of electrical machines (such as a mixer) do not
end up on hot cooking zones.

Pressure cleaner or steamcleaners
– Never use a pressure cleaner or steamcleaners.
Glassceramic cooking surface
– This cooking appliance is designed for domestic use. Do not use the
appliance for any purpose other than food preparation.
