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. 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). 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.
Safetyen
The ventilation grille will quickly become extremely hot if it is placed on
the hob. Never place the ventilation grille on the
hob. Do not place any pans on the ventilation
grille. Do not place any hot objects on the ventila-
tion grille. The appliance becomes hot during operation. Allow the appliance
to cool down before
cleaning. If hot liquids penetrate the appliance, only
remove the ventilation grille, 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. Call customer services. Page
44 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.
5
enPreventing material damage
The wireless temperature sensor is equipped with a battery, which may become
damaged if it is exposed to high temperatures. Remove the sensor from the
cookware and
store it away from any heat sources. The temperature sensor may be very hot
when removing it from the saucepan. Wear oven gloves or use a tea towel to re-
move it. 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.
WARNING Danger: Magnetism! The removable control element is magnetic and may
affect electronic implants, e.g. heart pacemakers or insulin pumps. Persons
with electronic implants must
stand at least 10 cm away from the magnetic control element. Never put the
control element in your pockets. The wireless temperature sensor is magnetic
and can damage electronic implants, e.g. heart pacemakers or insulin pumps.
Persons with electronic implants must stand at least 10 cm away from the
magnetic control element. Never put the control element in your pockets.
2 Preventing material damage Preventingmaterialdamage
ATTENTION! Rough pot and pan bases will scratch the ceramic. Check your
cookware. Boiling pans dry may damage cookware or the appliance. Never place
empty pans on a heated hotplate or al-
low to boil dry. Incorrectly positioned cookware can cause the electronics to
overheat. Never place hot pots or pans on the controls, the
displays, the hob surround or the ventilation grille. Damage can occur if hard
or pointed objects fall onto the hob. Do not let hard or pointed objects fall
onto the hob. Non heat-resistant materials will melt on heated hotplates. Do
not use oven protective foil. Do not use aluminium foil or plastic containers.

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.
6
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.
4 Disposal Disposal
4.1Disposing of old appliance
Valuable raw materials can be reused by recycling. Dispose of the appliance in
an environmentally
friendly manner. Information about current disposal methods are available from
your specialist dealer or local authority.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU
concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and
electronic equipment – WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the
return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.
5 Induction cooking Inductioncooking
5.1Advantages of induction cooking
Induction cooking is fundamentally different from traditional cooking methods,
since the heat builds up directly in the cookware. This offers numerous
advantages: ¡ Saves time when boiling and frying. ¡ Saves energy.
Disposalen
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. Only use the intensive mode as required. 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.
4.2Disposing of batteries
Batteries should be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner. Do not
dispose of the batteries in the household rubbish. Dispose of batteries in an
environmentally friendly
manner. According to the European Guideline 2006/66/EC, defective or used
battery packs/batteries, must be collected separately and disposed of in an
environmentally correct manner.
¡ Easier to care for and clean. Spilled food does not burn on as quickly.
¡ Controlling the heat supply and safety; the hob increases or decreases the
heat supply as soon as the user changes the setting. The induction cooking
zone stops the heat supply if you remove the cookware from the cooking zone
without you having to switch it off first.

enInduction cooking
5.2Cookware
Only ferromagnetic cookware is suitable for induction cooking. For example: ¡
Enamelled steel cookware ¡ Cast iron cookware ¡ Special induction-compatible
cookware made from
stainless steel Use Cookware test to check whether the cookware is suitable.
Refer to “Cookware test”, Page 35 for more details. In order to achieve a good
cooking result, ensure that the ferromagnetic area of the cookware base
corresponds to the size of the cooking zone. If the cookware is not detected
on a cooking zone, place it on a cooking zone with a smaller diameter.
¡ Thin-walled normal steel ¡ Glass ¡ Clay ¡ Copper ¡ Aluminium
Composition of the cookware base The material(s) from which the base of the
cookware is made may affect the cooking result. Cookware made of materials
that distribute heat evenly in the pot, such as saucepans with a stainless
steel sandwich base, save time and energy. You should ideally use cookware
with a flat base, as uneven cookware bases impair the heat supply.
If you are using the Flex Zone as a single cooking zone, you can use larger cookware that is particularly suited to this zone. You can find information on positioning the cookware in “Flex Zone”, Page 16. On some items of induction cookware, the base is not fully ferromagnetic: For large cookware with a smaller ferromagnetic base, only the area that is ferromagnetic heats up. As a result, the heat is not distributed evenly. The temperature of the non- ferromagnetic area may therefore be too low for cooking. Cookware bases that contain aluminium reduce the ferromagnetic area. This may reduce the output and the cookware will not be detected sufficiently or at all, and will therefore not be heated sufficiently.
No cookware/cookware of an unsuitable size If you do not place cookware on the
selected cooking zone or the cookware is made of an unsuitable material or is
not the right size for the cooking zone, the display for the cooking zone
flashes. To switch off the display, place a suitable item of cookware on the
cooking zone. If you do not place a suitable item of cookware on the cooking
zone within 90 seconds, it automatically switches off.
Empty cookware or cookware with a thin base Do not heat empty items of
cookware and do not use cookware with a thin base. The hob is equipped with an
internal safety system. Empty cookware may heat up so quickly that the
“Automatic switch-off” function does not respond in good time. This results in
an excessive temperature that melts the base of the cookware and damages the
glass plate. In this case, do not touch the cookware, and switch off the
cooking zone. If the cooking zone no longer works after cooling down, contact
the technical customer service.
Cookware detection Each cooking zone has a minimum limit for the cookware
detection and this depends on the ferromagnetic diameter and the material of
the base of the cookware. Therefore, always use the cooking zone that best
corresponds to the diameter of the pot base.
Unsuitable cookware Never use flow plates or cookware made of the following:

10.8Cooking instructions
This is where you can find an overview of useful cooking instructions for dishes or for using cookware. ¡ When heating up puree, cream soups or thick
sauces, stir occasionally. ¡ To preheat, set heat setting 8-9. ¡ When cooking with the lid on, reduce the power
level as soon as you see steam escaping. The cooking result is not affected by the steam escaping. ¡ After cooking, place a lid on the cookware until you serve the dish. ¡ To cook with the pressure cooker, observe the manufacturer’s instructions. ¡ Do not cook food for too long, otherwise nutrients will be lost. The short-term timer enables you to set the optimum cooking time. ¡ Ensure that the oil does not smoke. ¡ To brown the food, fry it in small portions, one after the other. ¡ Some items of cookware may reach high temperatures while the food is cooking. You should therefore use oven gloves. ¡ You can find recommendations for energy-efficient cooking in “Saving energy”, Page 7.

19.1Advantages of the cooking sensor function
¡ The cooking zone only continues heating for as long as this is necessary to
maintain the temperature. This saves energy. Oil or fat do not overheat.
¡ The temperature is continuously monitored. This prevents the food from
spilling over. You do not need to adjust the temperature.
23
enCooking sensor function
¡ A signal tone sounds once the water or oil has reached the optimum
temperature for adding the food. Exceptions for food that is added at the
beginning can be found in the Overview Page 26.
Notes ¡ Only use cookware with a completely flat and thick
base. Do not use cookware with a thin base or deformed base. ¡ Fill the
cookware so that the contents reach high enough to cover the cooking sensor’s
silicone patch. ¡ Always use the frying sensor function for frying with just a
little oil. ¡ Position the cookware in such a way that the cooking sensor is
pointing towards the outer side of the hob. ¡ Do not remove the cooking sensor
from the cookware during cooking. ¡ Remove the wireless cooking sensor from
the cookware after cooking. Be careful as the cooking sensor may be very hot.
19.2Suitable cookware
Select the cooking zone that best matches the diameter of the base of the
cookware. Place the cookware in the centre of the cooking zone.
For the cooking functions, use cookware that is tall enough that, when the required volume of water is added, the water level is higher than the silicone patch for the wireless cooking sensor. Any cookware that is suitable for induction cooking can be used with the cooking functions. You can find information on which types of cookware can be used with an induction hob in “Induction cooking”, Page 7. The Overview Page 24 lists the suitable cookware for each function.

19.5Tips for cooking with the cooking sensor function
¡ “Heating/keep-warm” function: Frozen products in portions, e.g. spinach.
Place the frozen product in the cookware. Add the volume of water specified by
the manufacturer. Cover the cookware and set the temperature to 70 °C. Stir
occasionally.
¡ “Poaching” function: Thicken food, e. g. sauces. Bring the food to the boil
at the recommended temperature. Once the food has thickened, simmer at 85 °C.
After the signal tone sounds, keep the food warm at this temperature for the
required time.
¡ “Boiling” function: Heat water with the lid on without it boiling over. Set
the temperature to 100 °C.
¡ “Cooking in a pressure cooker” function: Follow the manufacturer’s
recommendations. After the signal tone sounds, continue cooking for the
recommended time. Set the temperature to 115 °C.
¡ “Frying with a large amount of oil in the pan” function: Heat the oil with
the lid on. When the signal tone sounds, remove the lid and add the food. Set
the temperature to 175 °C.
Notes ¡ Make sure that the silicone patch is completely dry
before cooking. ¡ Always boil with the lid on except when using the
“Frying with a large amount of oil in the pan” function. Then set the
temperature to 170 °C. ¡ If no signal tone sounds, make sure that there is a
lid on the cookware. For optimum use of the cooking functions, always use a
lid, except when you use the “Frying with a large amount of oil in the pan”
function. ¡ Never leave oil unattended when it is being heated. Use oil or fat
that is suitable for deep-frying. Do not use a mixture of different cooking
fats and oils, e.g. oil and lard, since such mixtures may foam up when hot. ¡
If you are not satisfied with the cooking result, e.g. when cooking potatoes,
next time use more water but keep the recommended temperature setting.
19.6Setting the boiling point
The point at which water starts to boil depends on the height of your home
above sea level. You can change the boiling point if water is boiling too
strongly or not strongly enough. 1. Select the basic setting .
“Basic settings”, Page 32 2. The basic setting is set to by default. If your
home
is located at a height of between 200 and 400 metres above sea level, you do
not need to set the boiling point. If it is not, select the setting that
matches your home’s height above sea level. “Overview of the boiling point
settings”, Page 25 Note: The 100 °C temperature setting provides efficient
cooking even if the water does not bubble very strongly during the heating
process. If you are not satisfied with the cooking result, however, you can
change the boiling point setting.

29.2Noise
Question Why can I hear noises while I’m cooking?
What noises can occur and what is the significance of the noises?
Answer ¡ Noises may be generated while using the hob depending on the base
mater-
ial of the cookware. These noises are normal for induction technology. They do
not indicate that there is a fault. ¡ A deep humming noise similar to a
transformer: Occurs when cooking at a high power level. This noise disappears
or becomes quieter when you reduce the power level. ¡ A quiet whistling noise:
This can be heard when the cookware is empty. This noise disappears when you
add water or food to the cookware. ¡ Crackling: This noise occurs when the
cookware is made from different multilayer materials, or if you use cookware
of different sizes and different materials. The loudness of the noise can vary
depending on the quantity of food being cooked or the cooking method. ¡ Loud
whistling noises: These may arise if you are operating two cooking zones at
the same time and at the maximum power level. These whistling noises disappear
or become quieter when you reduce the power level. ¡ Fan noises: The hob is
equipped with a fan that switches on automatically at high temperatures. The
fan may also continue to run after you have switched the hob off if the
temperature measured is still too high.
