ance unattended when cooking for short periods. ¡ in private households and in
enclosed spaces in a domestic environment. ¡ up to an altitude of max. 2000 m
above sea level. Do not use the appliance: ¡ On boats or in vehicles. ¡ With
an external timer or a separate remote control. This does not apply if
operation with appliances included in EN 50615 is switched off. ¡ To extract
hazardous or explosive substances and vapours. ¡ To extract small parts and
liquids. If you wear an active implantable medical device (e.g. a pacemaker or
defibrillator), check with your doctor that it complies with Council Directive
90/385/EEC of 20th June 1990, EN 45502-2-1 and EN 45502-2-2, and that it has
been chosen, implanted and programmed in accordance with VDE-AR-E 2750-10. If
these conditions are satisfied, and if, in addition, non-metal cooking
utensils and cookware with non-metal handles are used, it is safe to use this
induction hob as intended.
1.3Restriction on user group This appliance may be used by children aged 8 or
over and by people who have reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities or
inadequate experience and/or knowledge, provided that they are supervised or
have
been instructed on how to use the appliance safely and have understood the
resulting dangers. Do not let children play with the appliance. Children must
not perform cleaning or user maintenance unless they are at least 15 years old
and are being supervised. Keep children under the age of 8 years away from the
appliance and power cable. 1.4Safe use
WARNING Risk of suffocation! Children may breathe in or swallow small parts,
causing them to suffocate. Keep small parts away from children. Do not let
children play with small parts. Children may put packaging material over their
heads or wrap themselves up in it and suffocate. Keep packaging material away
from chil-
dren. Do not let children play with packaging ma-
terial. WARNING Risk of poisoning!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being drawn back in. Room-air-dependent
heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coaloperated heaters,
continuous flow heaters or water heaters) obtain combustion air from the room
in which they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the open
through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney). With the extractor hood
switched on, air is extracted from the kitchen and the adjacent rooms. Without
an adequate supply of air, the air pressure falls below atmospheric pressure.
Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the
living space.
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the appliance is being
operated in exhaust air mode at the same time as a room-air-dependent heat-
producing appliance is being operated.
Safetyen
It is only possible to safely operate the appliance if the pressure in the
room in which the heating appliance is installed does not fall below 4 Pa
(0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the air needed for combustion is
able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors,
windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical means. An
incoming/exhaust air wall box alone is not sufficient to ensure compliance
with the limit.
In any case, consult your responsible chimney sweep. They are able to assess
the house’s entire ventilation setup and will suggest the suitable ventilation
measures to you.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the appliance is operated exclusively in
circulating-air mode. WARNING Risk of fire!
Leaving fat or oil cooking on an unattended hob can be dangerous and may lead
to fires. Never leave hot oil or fat unattended. Never attempt to extinguish a
fire using wa-
ter; instead, switch off the appliance and then cover with a lid or a fire
blanket. The cooking surface becomes very hot. Never place flammable objects
on the cooking surface or in its immediate vicinity. Never place objects on
the cooking surface. The appliance will become hot. Do not keep combustible
objects or aerosol cans in drawers directly underneath the hob. Hob covers can
cause accidents, for example due to overheating, catching fire or materials
shattering. Do not use hob covers. After every use, switch off the hob using
the main switch. Do not wait until the hob turns off automatically as there
are no longer any pots and pans on it. Fatty deposits in the grease filters
may catch fire. Never operate the appliance without a grease filter. Clean the
grease filters regularly. Never work with naked flames close to the appliance
(e.g. flambéing).

enAvoiding material damage
Do not install the appliance near a solid fuel heating appliance (e.g. wood-
or coalburning) unless the heating appliance has a sealed, non-removable
cover. There must be no flying sparks. WARNING Risk of burns!
The appliance and its parts that can be touched become hot during use,
particularly the hob surround, if fitted. Caution should be exercised here in
order
to avoid touching heating elements. Young children under 8 years of age must
be kept away from the appliance. Hob protective grilles may cause accidents.
Never use hob protective grilles. Metal objects on the hob quickly become very
hot. Never place metal objects (such as knives,
forks, spoons and lids) on the hob. The appliance becomes hot during
operation. Allow the appliance to cool down before
cleaning. If hot liquids penetrate the appliance, only
remove the grease filter or the overflow container once the appliance has
cooled down.
WARNING Risk of electric shock! Improper repairs are dangerous. Repairs to the
appliance should only be
carried out by trained specialist staff. Only use genuine spare parts when
repair-
ing the appliance. If the power cord or the appliance power
cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced with a special power
cord or special appliance power cable, which is available from the
manufacturer or its Customer Service.
If the appliance or the power cord is damaged, this is dangerous. Never
operate a damaged appliance. Never operate an appliance with a cracked
or fractured surface. Never pull on the power cord to unplug the
appliance. Always unplug the appliance at the mains. If the appliance or the
power cable is damaged, immediately switch off the fuse in the fuse box. Call
customer services. Page 18 An ingress of moisture can cause an electric shock.
Do not use steam- or high-pressure cleaners to clean the appliance. The
insulation on cables of electrical appliances may melt if it touches hot parts
of the appliance. Never bring electrical appliance cables into contact with
hot parts of the appliance.
WARNING Risk of injury! Saucepans may suddenly jump due to liquid between the
saucepan base and the hotplate. Always keep hotplates and saucepan
bases dry. Never use icy-cold cookware that has been
in the freezer. When cooking in a bain marie, the hob and cooking container
could shatter due to overheating. The cooking container in the bain marie
must not directly touch the bottom of the water-filled pot. Only use heat-
resistant cookware. An appliance with a cracked or broken surface can cause
cuts. Do not use the appliance if it has a cracked or broken surface.

3 Environmental protection and saving energy Environmentalprotectionandsavingenergy
3.1Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less energy. Select
the cooking zone to match the size of your pan. Centre the cookware on the
hob. Use cookware whose base diameter is the same diameter as the hotplate.
Tip: Cookware manufacturers often give the upper diameter of the saucepan. It
is often larger than the base diameter. ¡ Unsuitable cookware or incompletely
covered cook-
ing zones consume a lot of energy. Cover saucepans with suitable lids. ¡
Cooking without a lid consumes considerably more
energy. Lift lids as infrequently as possible. ¡ When you lift the lid, a lot
of energy escapes.
Use a glass lid. ¡ You can see into the pan through a glass lid
without having to lift it. Use pots and pans with flat bases. ¡ Uneven bases
increase energy consumption.
Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food. ¡ Large items of
cookware containing little food need
more energy to heat up. Cook with only a little water. ¡ The more water that
is contained in the cookware,
the more energy is required to heat it up. Turn down to a lower power level
early on. Use a suitable ongoing power level. ¡ If you use an ongoing power
level that is too high,
you will waste energy. Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam produced
during cooking. ¡ The lower the fan speed, the less energy is con-
sumed. If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select a higher fan speed
in good time. ¡ The odours are distributed around the room less.
Switch the appliance off when you are not using it. ¡
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation when cooking. ¡ The appliance
works more efficiently and with fewer
operating noises. Clean or replace the filters at regular intervals. ¡ The
effectiveness of the filter is retained. Product Information according (EU)
66/2014 can be found on the attached appliance pass and online on the product
page for your appliance.
4 Suitable cookware Suitablecookware
Cookware that is suitable for induction cooking must have a ferromagnetic
base, i.e. it must be attracted by a magnet. The base must also match the size
of the
cooking zone. If cookware is not detected on a cooking zone, place this on the
cooking zone with the next smallest diameter.
5
enSuitable cookware
4.1Size and characteristics of the cookware
To be able correctly detect the cookware, you must take the size and the
material of the cookware into consideration. All cookware bases must be
perfectly flat and smooth.
Use Cookware test to check whether the cookware is suitable. Refer to “Cookware test”, Page 13 for more details.
Cookware Recommended cookware Suitable
Not suitable
Materials Stainless steel cookware in a sandwich design that distributes the
heat well. Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelled steel, cast iron or
special induction cookware made of stainless steel. The base is not fully
ferromagnetic.
Cookware bases that contain aluminium.
Cookware made from normal thin steel, glass, clay, copper or aluminium.
Properties This cookware distributes the heat evenly, heats up quickly, and
ensures that it can be detected easily. This cookware distributes the heat
evenly, heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be detected.
If the ferromagnetic area is smaller than the base of the cookware, only the
area that is ferromagnetic heats up. As a result, the heat is not distributed
evenly. These cookware bases reduce the ferromagnetic area, which means that
less power is emitted to the cookware. This cookware may not be sufficiently
detected or may not be detected at all, and therefore does not heat
sufficiently.
Notes ¡ Do not use adapter plates between the hob and the
cookware. ¡ Do not heat up empty cookware and do not use
cookware with a thin base, as this may become very hot.

6 Operating modes Operatingmodes
You can use your appliance in air extraction mode or circulating-air mode.
6.1Air extraction mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the
exterior by a pipe system.
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that
only discharge the air back into the room). ¡ If the exhaust air is to be
conveyed
into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, you must obtain the consent
of the heating engineer responsible. ¡ If the exhaust air is conveyed through
the external wall, a telescopic duct should be used.
6.2Air recirculation
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and an odour
filter, and conveyed back into the room.
To bind odours in air recirculation mode, you must install an odour filter.
The different options for operating the appliance in air circulation mode can
be found in our catalogue. Alternatively, ask your dealer. The required
accessories are available from specialist retailers, from our after-sales
service or from the online shop. Note: When cooking intensively and for a long
time, moisture is released into the air in the room. When using the appliance
in air recirculation mode, we recommend ventilating the kitchen adequately,
e.g. by briefly opening a window to remove excessive moisture.
