Cookware
- Magnetic circuit
- Glass-ceramic panel
- Induction coil
- Induction current
NOTICE!
- Read the complete instruction manual before you operate the appliance for the first time. Strictly observe the safety guidelines!
- Remove the complete protective film!
Use of the touch control
- The sensor keys respond to touches so you do not need to press them.
- Touch the sensors with the bottom side of your top phalanx but not with your fingertip (see figure below).
- You will hear a beep after each effective input.
- Always keep the touch control clean and dry. Cooking utensils and clothes should not cover the touch control. A thin water film may already complicate operating the sensors.
Suitable cookware
- Use induction-suitable cookware only. Check the induction symbol on the packaging or the base of the cookware.
- Check the suitability with a magnet. When the magnet is attracted by the base, the cookware is suitable.
- If you have not got a magnet pour some water into the cookware which is to be checked.

- Do not use cookware with sharp or serrated edges or a coarse and uneven base.
The base of your cookware should be flat, contact the glass ceramic completely
and have the same diameter as the relevant cooking zone. Always centre the
cookware in the cooking zone. Cookware with a diameter of less than 140 mm can
be undetected by the appliance. Always lift your cookware, when you want to
move it on the glass ceramic. Do not push cookware as you may scratch the
glass ceramic.
The base of the cookware must have a minimum diameter relevant to the diameter
of the cooking zone you use the cookware on.

KIND OF CONTAMINATION
STRATEGY SAFETY GUIDELINES
Daily contamination of the glass ceramic (fingerprints, stains caused by food,
non-sugary spillages).
- Disconnect the appliance from the mains (fuse box).
- Use a suitable detergent for glass ceramic while the glass ceramic is still warm – but not hot!
- Clean with a soft cloth/kitchen paper and water, then dry carefully.
- Connect the appliance to the mains again.
- While the appliance is disconnected from the mains the residual heat indicator does not work, so the cooking zones may be still hot. Be very careful.
- Scourers, nylon scourers and abrasive detergents can scratch the glass ceramic. Read the product information of these detergents, so you know if they are suitable to clean glass ceramic.
- Do not leave any residuals of a detergent on the glass ceramic as it can turn stained permanently.
- Overcooked or melted food and stains caused by heated sugar-containing food on the glass ceramic.
Remove such contamination immediately with a suitable glass-ceramic scraper.
Beware of cooking zones that are still hot!
- Disconnect the appliance from the mains (fuse box).
- Hold the scraper in a 300-angle and scrape off the contamination in a cold area.
- Clean the contaminated area with a dish towel/kitchen paper.
- Proceed as described in steps 2-4 in the previous section.
- Remove such contaminations as soon as possible. When they cool down on the glass ceramic, they are difficult to remove and may damage the glass ceramic permanently.
- Be very careful when using the scraper so that you do not cut yourself (especially, when you have removed the safety cover)
Contamination of the control panel
- Disconnect the appliance from the mains (fuse box).
- Take away the contamination.
- Wipe the sensors with a damp sponge or cloth.
- Dry the sensors with kitchen paper.
- Connect the appliance to the mains again.
The appliance may beep and automatically turn off. The sensors may not work properly when they are wet. Dry the control panel carefully before you put it into operation again. Do not use any abrasive detergents! Do not use any organic detergents! Do not use essential oils!
