WARNING
Risk of deflagration!
If the burner does not ignite after 15 seconds,
switch off the control knob and open the door or
window in the room. Wait at least 1 minute before
igniting the burner again.
Simmer setting
With the simmer setting, the burner switches the gas
flame on and off. This allows you to melt chocolate or
heat up delicate sauces, for example.
Turn the control knob to Â. It takes 10-50 seconds to
switch on or off.
Electronic flame monitoring and
automatic re-ignition
For your safety, the cooktop has an electronic flame
monitoring system. If the flame goes out while the
cooktop is in use (e.g. due to a draft), the appliance will
automatically re-ignite the burner.
If re-ignition is unsuccessful (e.g. because liquid or food
has boiled over and remains on the burner), the
appliance will switch off the gas supply. The illuminated
ring behind the control knob will flash.
Turn the control knob to 0. Wait until the appliance is
cool enough and then check whether all the burner parts
are in the correct position. Check whether the burner or
the ignition plug are covered in food remnants
etc.~ "Faults – What to Do?" on page 19
Turning off
Turn the control knob to position 0. The appliance
electronics will shut off the gas supply.

WARNING
Risk of burns!
When the appliance cover is closed, this leads to a
build-up of heat. Only operate or switch on the
appliance when the appliance cover is open. Do
not use the appliance cover for keeping warm or
setting down. Only close the appliance cover once
the appliance has cooled down.

CAUTION
Damage to the appliance
Remove spilled liquids before opening the
appliance cover.
Residual heat display
The illuminated ring behind the control knob will flash
after switching off as long as the appliance is too hot to
touch it safely.
Safety shut-off
For your protection, the appliance is equipped with a
safety shut-off. The appliance is automatically switched
off if it has been in operation for an extended period.
How long the appliance waits before switching itself off
depends on the setting (setting 12 = 1 hour,
setting 1 = 4 hours). The illuminated ring behind the
control knob will flash orange and white alternately.
Turn the control knob to 0. You will now be able to start
the appliance again as usual.
