What you should pay attention to
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
I
This appliance should only be connected to the mains supply by a qualified
electrician.
I
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
I
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
I
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
I
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
I
the drawer.
I
Do not place any flammable objects in the drawer.
The cooking zones get hot during use and also remain hot for some time
after use (see also 'residual heat indication')
Do not allow small children in the vicinity of the hob during and soon after
I
cooking.

Grease and oil are flammable when overheated.
Stay near the cooker when preparing dishes.
If the oil catches fire, never extinguish the fire with water.
Put the lid on the pan and switch off the cooking zone.
Make sure that cables of electrical machines (such as a mixer) do not end up
on hot cooking zones.
The high flames can cause fire. Even if the ventilator is switched off.
Never use a pressure cleaner or steamcleaners.
This cooking appliance is designed for domestic use. Do not use the
appliance for any purpose other than food preparation.
Take care that the pan does not boil dry. Damage caused by pans boiling
dry is excluded from the warranty.
The glass-ceramic cooking surface is very strong but not unbreakable. A
breakage may occur if a sharp object falls on it.
The cooking surface must not be used for storage.
Do not place any metal objects such as knives and forks on the cooking
area. They could become hot.
