2.1.3 General

The best transmission is obtained when the pans and the cooking zone are of equal dimension.
For the minimum or maximum pan bottom diameter for the cooking zone, please see the following table.
Cooking zones
Diameter
260 mm
210 mm
180 mm
145 mm
Always use a lid. Energy is wasted if you cook without a lid placed correctly on the pan. Always take away overflow
food.
Clean the hob before using it for the first time.

2.2 Important

Attention: The surfaces of the heating and cooking zones become hot during use. Keep small children
away at all times.
Always ensure that no hard objects are dropped onto the cooking surface. Under certain circumstances the
material is sensitive to mechanical stresses and strains. A heavy knock or blow in a small area can cause the
ceramic hob to break. If careless treatment results in a break, split or crack, the ceramic hob must immediately be
taken out of use and disconnected from the mains power supply. To do this, switch off the safety switch for the
oven connection in the fuse box. Customer Service must be contacted.
Objects made out of metal, like knifes, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the cooking zones,
because they might become hot.
The cooking zone must be switched off after use by means of the touch control and not only via pan
recognition. This is to avoid accidental activation.
Do not use the glass ceramic hob as a storage area! Never prepare food in aluminium foil and plastic containers
on the hot cooking area.
Do not switch the hob on without using it for cooking. Do not place combustible, volatile or heat deformable objects
directly underneath the hob.
When preparing food with fat or oil stay nearby. Overheated oil can ignite. Never pour water into burning fat or oil.
Risk of burning! Cover the dish in order to extinguish the fire and switch off the cooking zone. Let the dish cool
down on the cooking zone.
In addition, make sure that leads from electrical appliances plugged into nearby sockets cannot come into contact
with the hotplates.
Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner or similar appliance!
Warning: Care must be taken when using double boilers (bain maries), for the simmering water may dry up
unnoticed, resulting in damage to the pot and to the hob, in the event of which no liability will be
assumed.
