Avoiding material damage

This is where you can find the most common causes of damage and tips on how to avoid them.

Remove immediately with a glass scraper.
Stains, blisters or fractures in the glass| Defective cookware, cookware with melted enamel or cookware with copper or aluminium base.| Use suitable cookware that is in a good condition.
Stains, discolouration| Unsuitable cleaning methods.| Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for glass ceramic, and only clean the hob when it is cold.
Blisters or fractures in the glass| Knocks or falling cookware, cooking accessories or other hard or pointed objects.| When cooking, do not hit the glass or let objects fall onto the hob.
Scratches, discolouration| Rough cookware bases or moving the cook- ware on the hob.| Check the cookware. Lift the cookware when moving it.
Scratches| Salt, sugar or sand.| Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage space.
Damage to the appliance| Cooking with frozen cookware.| Never use frozen cookware.
Damage to the cook- ware or the appliance| Cooking without contents.| Never place or heat empty cookware on a hot cooking zone.
Glass damage| Melted material on the hot cooking zone or hot pot lid on the glass.| Do not place greaseproof paper or aluminium foil nor plastic containers or pot lids on the hob.
Overheating| Hot cookware on the control panel or on the frame.| Never place hot cookware on these areas.

ATTENTION!
A fan is located on the underside of this hob.

• If a drawer is located on the underside of the hob, do not store any small or pointed objects, paper or tea towels in it. These objects may be sucked in and damage the fan or impair the cooling.
• There must be a clearance of at least 2 cm between the contents of the drawer and the fan entry point.

Environmental protection and saving energy

Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.

• Sort the individual components by type and dispose of them separately.

Saving 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 cooking 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.
• If you use an ongoing power level that is too high, you will waste energy.
• Product Information according (EU) 66/2014 can be found on the attached appliance pass and online on the product page for your appliance.

Suitable cookware

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.

Size 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 9 for more details.

up quickly, and ensures that it can be detected easily.
| Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelled steel, cast iron or special induction cookware made of stainless steel.| This cookware distributes the heat evenly, heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be detected.
Suitable | The base is not fully ferromagnetic.| 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.

| Cookware bases that contain aluminium.| 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.
Not suitable| Cookware made from normal thin steel, glass, clay, copper or aluminium.|

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.

3. Seal the cut surfaces with heat-resistant material.

Ventilation
To guarantee that the appliance works correctly, the hob must be sufficiently ventilated. The ventilation in the lower section of the appliance requires a sufficient supply of fresh air. Therefore, if required, adjust the units for this purpose.

1. Maintain a minimum clearance between the rear of the unit and the kitchen wall.
2. Ensure that an opening at the top of the rear of the unit is unobstructed.
3. If the clearance from the back wall of the unit is less than 20 mm, create an opening on the underside.
4. Do not hermetically seal the lower base.
   Note:  If the appliance is installed in an island unit or in another location that is not described here, guarantee that the hob is ventilated appropriately.
   Installation above a drawer
   In order to guarantee good ventilation, the clearance between the surface of the worktop and the upper area of the drawer must be 65 mm.

Installation above an oven

• To ensure good ventilation, the clearance between the top of the worktop and the surface of the oven front must be 30 mm and the minimum clearance between the oven and hob must be 5 mm.
• If the clearance between the hob and the oven needs to be increased, refer to the installation instructions for the oven.

Inserting the hob

1.   Adjust the hob in the front section of the built-in niche.
2.  Insert the hob in the cut-out.
3. Seal the tile joints on tiled work surfaces with silicone rubber.
   Note:  Do not kink or trap the connection cable, and keep it away from sharp edges and hot parts.

Connecting the appliance
Requirement: Observe the connection data on the rating plate.

1. Only connect as shown in the circuit diagram:
   • BN: Brown
   • BU: Blue
   • GN/YE: Green and yellow
2. Check that the appliance is ready for operation: If 400e05513 OR e  appears on the appliance’s display, the appliance is not connected correctly. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply and check the power cord connection at the mains supply.

Special combinations
If you install the hob above an oven made by another brand, use a wooden partition floor.
