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.
    Take advantage of the hob’s residual heat. With longer cooking times switch off the hotplate 5-10 minutes before the end of cooking.

  • Unused residual heat increases energy consumption.
    Product Information according (EU) 66/2014 can be found on the attached appliance pass and online on the product page for your appliance.

Familiarising yourself with your appliance

The instruction manual is the same for various different hobs. You can find the hob dimensions in the overview of models.

Control panel
You can use the control panel to configure all functions of your appliance and to obtain information about the operating status.

Touch field with light bar above the symbols

Notes

  • Depending on the operating condition of the hob, the touch fields that can currently be selected light up brightly or dimmed. If you touch one of these fields, the relevant function is activated.
  • Touch fields which cannot currently be selected do not light up.
  • The settings of the hotplates currently selected light up brightly.
  • Always keep the control panel dry. Moisture impairs the function.
  • Do not pull pans close to the displays and touch fields. The electronics may overheat.

Hotplates
You can find an overview of the different activations of the hotplates here.
If you operate the activations, the relevant displays light up.
If you switch on a hotplate, it will switch to the setting last selected.

Hotplate Name Activating and deactivating
o Single-circuit cooking zone Select a hotplate.
o Dual-circuit hotplate Select a hotplate. Touch .

Notes

  • Dark areas in the glow pattern of the hotplate are part of the technical design. They do not affect the functionality of the hotplate.
  • The hotplate regulates the temperature by switching the heat on and off. The heat may also switch on and off when at the highest setting.
  • With multi-circuit hotplates, the heating of the hotplate and the activated areas may switch on or off at different times.

Reasons:

  • Easily damaged components are protected against overheating.
  • The appliance is protected against electrical overload.
  • This achieves a better cooking result.

Combi-cooking zone
The combi-cooking zone allows you to combine the single-circuit and the dual- circuit hotplate with the bridge heating element. The two hotplates can also be operated independently of each other.

  1. Single-circuit hotplate
  2. Dual-circuit hotplate
  3. Bridge heating element

The small extended cooking zone (2 and 3) and the single-circuit hotplate (1) can also be operated independently with different heat settings. This produces different temperature areas, for example for the large roaster, the teppanyaki or the grill plate.
With the small extended cooking zone you can fry one food while simultaneously using the single-circuit hotplate to keep another warm.
Tip : Suitable cookware is available from customer service or our online shop.

Residual heat indicator
The hob has a two-stage residual heat indicator for each hotplate. Do not touch the hotplate while the residual heat indicator is lit up.

Display Meaning
H The hotplate is so hot that you can keep small dishes warm or melt cook-

ing chocolate.

Function-relevant genuine spare parts according to the corresponding Ecodesign Order can be obtained from Customer Service for a period of at least 10 years from the date on which your appliance was placed on the market within the European Economic Area.
Note : Under the terms of the manufacturer’s warranty the use of Customer Service is free of charge.

Detailed information on the warranty period and terms of the warranty in your country is available from our aftersales service, your retailer or on our website.
If you contact Customer Service, you will require the product number (E-Nr.) and the production number (FD) of your appliance.

The contact details for Customer Service can be found in the enclosed Customer Service directory or on our website.

Product number (E-Nr.) and production number (FD)
You can find the product number (E-Nr.) and the production number (FD) on the appliance’s rating plate.
The rating plate can be found:

  • on the appliance certificate.
  • on the lower section of the hob.

Make a note of your appliance’s details and the Customer Service telephone number to find them again quickly.

Installation instructions

Observe this information when installing the appliance.

Safe installation
Follow these safety instructions when installing the appliance.

  • Electrical connection must only be carried out by licensed specialist staff. Incorrect connection will invalidate the warranty.
  • The safe operation of this appliance can only be guaranteed if it has been installed to a professional standard in accordance with these installation instructions. The installer shall be liable for any damage resulting from incorrect installation.

Built-under
Do not install refrigerators, dishwashers, non-ventilated ovens or washing machines underneath the appliance.
Make sure that projecting parts such as the mains housing or the mains cable do not collide, e.g. with a drawer.

Intermediate floor
If the underside of the hob can be touched, an intermediate floor must be fitted.

  • Ask your specialist retailer for an intermediate floor as an accessory.
  • If you use your own intermediate floor, the minimum distance to the mains connection of the appliance must be 10 mm.

Preparing the units
The worktop must be level, horizontal and stable.

  • The fitted units, including wall finishing strips, must be heat-resistant to at least 90 °C.
  • Niche cladding within 50 mm of the back wall must not be combustible (e.g. tiles, stone).
  • Seal the cut surfaces to make them heat-resistant.
    This prevents the worktop from swelling as a result of moisture.
