Operating Instructions  
1 Safety  
The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted technical  
standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, as manu-  
facturers we also believe it is our responsibility to familiarise you with  
the following safety instructions.  
Electrical Safety  
The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be  
carried out by qualified personnel.  
Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved  
service engineers. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons  
may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. If your appliance needs  
repairing, please contact your local Service Centre or your dealer.  
Please follow these instructions, otherwise the warranty is void in the  
event of damages.  
3
Flush-mounted appliances may only be operated following installa-  
tion in suitable installation cabinets and workplaces which conform  
to the relevant standards. This ensures sufficient protection against  
contact for electrical units as required by the VDE [Association of  
German Electrical Engineers].  
If your appliance malfunctions or if fractures, cracks or splits appear:  
switch off all cooking zones,  
disconnect the hob from the electricity supply.  
Child Safety  
The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always  
keep small children away from the appliance.  
70  
 
Safety During Use  
This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in  
the home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.  
Do not use the hob to heat the room.  
Take care when plugging electric appliances into mains sockets  
near the hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the  
hot surface.  
Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise  
cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).  
Switch off the cooking zones after use.  
Safety When Cleaning  
For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or  
high pressure cleaner.  
Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning in-  
structions in this manual.  
71  
 
To Avoid damaging your appliance  
Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.  
Do not operate the cooking zones when there is no pan or the pans  
are empty.  
Glass ceramic is insensitve to temperature shock and very robust;  
however it is not unbreakable. Especially sharp and hard objects  
that fall on the cooking surface can damage it.  
Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged  
base. Scratching may occur if the pans are slid across the surface.  
Do not place any pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage to  
the paint may occur.  
Make sure that no acidic liquids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or descaling  
agents, are spilt onto the hob frame, since these cause dull spots.  
If sugar or a preparation with sugar comes into contact with the hot  
cooking zone and melts there it must be cleaned off immediately  
with a scraper while it is still hot. If it cools, the surface may be dam-  
aged when it is removed.  
Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the ceramic  
glass surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If some-  
thing of this nature should melt onto the ceramic glass surface, it  
must also be removed immediately using the scraper. Always use a  
ceramic glass scraper with care.  
72  
 
2 Disposal  
Disposing of the packaging material  
All parts of the packaging can be fully recycled; foil and expanded  
polyurethane parts are appropriately identified. Please dispose of  
packaging material and, if appropriate, your old appliance properly.  
Please follow the national and regional regulations and material  
identification (material separation, refuse collection, waste disposal  
sites).  
Information on disposal  
The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.  
You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse  
disposal sites from your local refuse department or council.  
Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable.  
Remove the mains lead.  
73  
 
The Key Features of Your Appliance  
Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic  
glass cooking surface and 4 rapid response cooking zones. The par-  
ticularly powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the  
amount of time taken for the zones to heat up.  
Cleaning: The advantage of the glass ceramic cooking surface is its  
easy cleaning. The smooth surface is easy to keep clean (see sec-  
tion: “Cleaning and care”).  
Double-ring cooking zones: The cooking surface utilises two dou-  
ble-ring cooking zones. This provides the appliance with cooking  
zones of variable sizes, for instance for smaller pots, which saves en-  
ergy.  
Residual heat indicator: The residual heat indicator lights up if the  
cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burning. The re-  
sidual heat indicator will not illuminate if there is a power cut, even if  
there is still a risk of burning..

Before Using for the First Time  
Initial Cleaning  
Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth.  
Important: Do not use any caustic, abrasive cleaners! The surface  
could be damaged.  
1
Operating the Hob  
When a cooking zone is switched on, it may hum briefly. This is a  
characteristic of all glass ceramic cooking zones and does not impair  
either the function or the life of the appliance.  
3
Ring Switches  
The heat settings are continuously variable be-  
tween settings 1-10.  
1 = lowest power  
10 = highest power  
K= double ring switching  
Cooking on the Zones  
1. Select a high setting for heating up / browning.  
2. As soon a steam starts to form or the oil is hot, turn  
back to the heat setting necessary for further cook-  
ing.  
3. To stop cooking, turn back to the zero position.  
Switch off the cooking zone approx. 5-10 minutes  
2
before the end of the cooking to make use of the  
residual heat. By this means you can save electric-  
ity.  
76  
 
Switching on the Dual-ring Cooking Zone  
The switch for the dual-ring cooking zone is switched on by turning  
clockwise and must not be turned past the stop!  
1
1. Turn the switch for the dual-ring cooking zone  
clockwise. Turn past position 10 to the „dual-ring“  
symbol until it stops.  
2. Then turn back to the required heat setting for  
cooking.  
3. To stop cooking, turn back to the off position.  
The next time the dual-ring cooking zone is re-  
quired, repeat the above procedure.  
3
Residual heat indicator  
The ceramic glass hob is equipped with a residual heat indicator, a  
control lamp is allocated to each cooking zone. This lights up as soon  
the corresponding cooking zone is hot and warns against inadvertant  
contact.  
The residual heat indicator only goes out when the cooking zone has  
cooled down even when the cooking zone is switched Off.  
You can use the residual heat for melting and keeping food warm.  
2
1
Important! As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there  
is a risk of burns.  
Important! If the power supply is interrupted the residual heat indica-  
1
tor also goes out and information about residual heat will no longer be  
available. However, it is still possible to burn yourself. This can be  
avoided by being particularly attentive.  
77  
 
Uses, Tables and Tips  
Pans  
The better the pan, the better the results.  
You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as  
thick and flat as possible.  
Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of  
the base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper  
rim.  
Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolour-  
ing on the ceramic glass surface, which is very difficult or impossible  
to remove.  
Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged  
base. This can produce permanent scratching if the pan is slid  
across the surface.  
When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly  
inwards (concave). They should never be bowed  
outwards (convex).  
If you wish to use special types of pan (e.g. a  
pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.),  
please observe the manufacturer's instructions.  
Energy saving tips  
You can save valuable energy by observing the following points:  
2
Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking  
zone.  
Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase  
power consumption.  
Whenever possible always position the lids firmly  
on pots and pans to cover completely.  
Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the  
cooking time to use the residual heat such as to  
keep foods warm or for melting.  
The base of the pan should be  
the same size as the cooking  
zone.  
Using a pressure cooker reduces  
cooking times by up to 50%.

Cleaning and Care  
Hob  
Important: Cleaning agents must not come into contact with the hot  
1
ceramic glass surface! All cleaning agents must be removed with  
plenty of clean water after cleaning because they can have a caustic  
effect when the zones are next heated!  
Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven sprays,  
coarse scourers or abrasive pan cleaners.  
Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is warm to the  
3
touch or cold. This will avoid spillages becoming burnt on.  
Remove scale and water marks, fat spots and discolouration with  
a metallic shimmer using a commercially available ceramic glass  
cleaner such as “Hob Brite”.  
Light Soiling  
1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and a little washing  
up liquid.  
2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. Remnants of cleaner must not be  
left on the surface.  
3. Thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass cooking surface once a  
week with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless steel  
cleaner.  
4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface using plenty of clean water  
and rub dry with a clean fluff-free cloth.  
Stubborn Soiling  
1. To remove food that has boiled  
over or stubborn splashes, use a  
glass scraper.  
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle  
to the ceramic glass surface.  
3. Remove soiling by sliding the  
blade.  
You can obtain glass scrapers and  
ceramic glass cleaners from spe-  
cialist retailers.  
3
80  
 
1 Problem Dirt  
1. Remove burnt-on sugar, melted  
plastic, aluminium foil or other melta-  
ble materials with a glass scraper  
immediately and while still hot.  
Important: There is a risk of burning  
yourself when the glass scraper is  
1
used on a hot cooking zone!  
2. Then clean the hob normally when it  
has cooled down.  
If the cooking zone on which  
something has melted has already  
3
cooled down, warm it up again for cleaning.  
Scratches or dark marks on the glass ceramic surface, caused for ex-  
ample by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot be removed. However,  
they do not impair the function of the hob.  
Hob Frame  
Important! Do not put vinegar, lemon-juice or scale removers on the  
hob frame, otherwise dull spots will appear.  
1
1. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid.  
2. Soften dried dirt with a wet cloth. Then wipe off and rub dry.  
81

1 Safety Instructions for the Installer  
A device must be provided in the electrical installation which allows  
the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a  
contact opening width of at least 3 mm.  
Suitable isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses  
(screw type fuses are to be removed from the holder), earth leakage  
trips and contactors.  
In respect of fire protection, this appliance corresponds to type Y  
(EN 60 335-2-6). Only this type of appliance may be installed with a  
high cupboard or wall on one side.  
Drawers may not be fitted underneath the hob.  
The installation must guarantee shock protection.  
The kitchen unit in which the appliance is fitted must satisfy the sta-  
bility requirements of DIN 68930.  
For protection against moisture, all cut surfaces are to be sealed  
with a suitable sealant.  
On tiled work surfaces, the joints in the area where the hob sits must  
be completely filled with grout.  
On natural, artificial stone, or ceramic tops, the snap action springs  
must be bonded in place with a suitable artificial resin or mixed ad-  
hesive.  
Ensure that the seal is correctly seated in the frame and that it is  
seated against the work surface without leaving any gaps. Addi-  
tional silicon sealant must not be applied; this will make removal  
more difficult when servicing.  
The hob must be pressed out from below when removed.  
85  
 
Electrical Connection  
Before connecting, check that the nominal voltage of the appliance,  
that is the voltage stated on the rating plate, corresponds to the avail-  
able supply voltage. The rating plate is located on the lower casing of  
the hob.  
The heating element voltage is AC230 V ~. The appliance also works  
perfectly on older networks with AC220 V ~.  
The hob is to be connected to the mains using a device that allows the  
appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a con-  
tact opening width of at least 3 mm, eg. automatic line protecting cut-  
out,earth leakage tripsorfuse.  
A type H05VV-F cable or one with a higher grade must be used as the  
mains connecting cable.  
The connection must be carried out as shown in the diagram. The  
connecting links should be fitted according to the appropriate con-  
nection diagram. The earth lead is connected to terminal x. The  
earth lead must be longer than leads carrying electric current.  
The cable connections must be made in accordance with regula-  
tions and the terminal screws tightened securely.  
Finally, the connecting cable is to be secured with the mains cable  
cleat and the covering closed by pressing firmly (lock into place).  
Before switching on for the first time, any protective foil or stickers  
must be removed from the glass ceramic surface.  
Once connected to the mains supply check that all cooking zones are  
ready for use by briefly switching each on in turn at the maximum set-  
ting.

Service  
In the “What to do if …” section a number of malfunctions are listed  
that you can rectify yourself Look there first if a fault occurs.  
Is it a technical fault?  
If so, please contact your customer service centre. (You will find  
addresses and telephone numbers in the section “Customer Service  
Centres”.)  
Always prepare in advance for the discussion. This will make diagno-  
sis of the problem easier and also make it easier to decide if a custo-  
mer service visit is necessary:  
Please make a note of the following  
information as accurately as pos-  
sible:  
What form does the fault take?  
Under what circumstances does  
the fault occur?  
Prior to the telephone call it is impor-  
tant that you make a note of the fol-  
lowing appliance code numbers that  
are given on the rating plate:  
PNC code (9 digits),  
S No code (9 digits).  
We recommend that you record the code numbers here so that you al-  
ways have them to hand:  
PNC . . . . . . . . .  
S No . . . . . . . . .  
When do you incur costs even during the warranty period?  
if you could have remedied the fault yourself using the fault table  
(see section “What do I do if ...”),  
if the customer service technician has to make several journeys be-  
cause he was not provided with all the relevant information before  
his visit and therefore, forexample, has to fetch spare parts. These  
multiple trips can be avoided if you prepare your phone call as de-  
scribed above.
