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 aluminum base.| Use suitable cookware that is in a good condition.
Stains, discoloration| 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 ob- jects fall onto the hob.
Scratches, discoloration| Rough cookware bases or moving the cookware 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 cookware 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 aluminum 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 them 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 the    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 correctly detect the cookware, take the size and the material of the cookware into consideration. All cookware bases must be perfectly flat and smooth. You can use the Cookware test to check whether your cookware is suitable. You can find more information about this under

→ “Cookware test”, Page 11.

up quickly, and ensures that it can be detected easily.
 | Ferromagnetic cookware made of enameled steel, cast iron or special induction cookware made of stainless steel.| This cookware heats up quickly and ensures that it can be detected easily.
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 with aluminum content.| These 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 aluminum.|

Suitable cookware

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.

Familiarising yourself with your appliance

Cooking with induction

In comparison to conventional hobs, induction technology brings with it a series of changes and has a number of benefits such as time savings when cooking and frying, energy savings as well as greater ease of cleaning and care. It also offers improved heat control as them heat is generated directly in the cookware.

Control panel

• On certain models, specific details such as the color and shape may differ from those pictured.

Selection sensors

Touch fields and displays

• Touch a symbol to activate the function it represents.
• Always keep the control panel clean and dry. Moisture impairs the function.
• Do not place any cookware near the indicators or sensors. The electronics may overheat.

Distribution of the cooking zones

The specified power has been measured with the standard pots, which are described in IEC/EN 60335-2-6. The power may vary depending on the size of the cookware or cookware material.

Cooking zone

Before you start cooking, check whether the size of the cookware fits the cooking zone that you want to use for cooking:

→ “CombiZone”, Page 8.

Residual heat indicator

The hob has a residual heat indicator for each cooking zone. Do not touch the cooking zone if the residual heat indicator is lit.

Basic operation

Switching the hob on and off

• You can use the controls to switch the hob on and off. When the hob is switched on, the power level indicator lights up.

Setting the cooking zones

• Use the controls to select the required power level. 0 = Cooking zone off.

Performance level

   Lowest performance level
     Highest performance level

Each power level has an intermediate level. This is marked with a dot.

Selecting a power level

• Turn the knob on the control panel clockwise until you reach the required power level.
• This required the power level to light up on the display.

Note: If no cookware is placed on the cooking zone or the pot is not suitable, the selected power level flashes. After a certain period of time, the cooking zone switches itself off. Turn the knob on the control panel anti- clockwise until you reach power level 0.

Switching off the cooking zone

• Turn the knob on the control panel anti-clockwise until you reach power level 0.
• The cooking zone switches itself off and the residual heat indicator lights up.

Cooking recommendations

The table shows which power level ( ⁠) is suitable for, which food. The cooking time ( ⁠) may vary depending on the type, weight, thickness and quality of the food. To preheat, set power level 8–9.
