VITROCERAMIC COOKER USE
TOUCH CONTROLS
- The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.
- Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
- You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
- Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to operate.

After power on, the buzzer beeps once, all the indicators light up for 1
second then go out, indicating that the ceramic hob has entered the stat of
standby mode.
WARNING
“H” will show which cooking zone is hot to touch (>60°C). It will disappear
when the surface has cooled down to a safe temperature. It can also be used as
an energy saving function if you want to heat further pans, use the hotplate
that is still hot.
Locking the controls

COOKING GUIDELINES
Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using the highest power level. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a serious fire risk.
Cooking tips
- When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.
- Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.
- Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
- Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated through.
CARE AND CLEANING
What? | How? | Important! |
---|
Everyday soiling on glass (fingerprints, marks, stains left by food or non- sugary spillovers on the glass)| 1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Apply a cooktop cleaner while the glass is still warm (but not hot!)
3. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
4. Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
| • When the power to the cooktop is switched off, there will be no ‘hot surface’ indication but the cooking
zone may still be hot! Take extreme care.
| • Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon scourers and harsh/abrasive cleaning agents may scratch the glass. Always read the label to
check if your cleaner or scourer is suitable.
| • Never leave cleaning residue on the cooktop: the glass may become
stained.
Boilovers, melts, and hot sugary spills on the glass| Remove these immediately
with a fish slice, palette knife or razor blade scraper suitable for Ceramic
glass cooktops, but beware of hot cooking
zone surfaces:
| • Remove stains left by melts and sugary food or spillovers as soon as possible. If left to cool on the glass, they may be difficult to remove or even permanently damage the glass surface.
• Cut hazard: when the safety cover is retracted, the blade in a scraper is razor-sharp. Use with extreme care and always store safely and out of reach of children.
| 1. Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall.
| 2. Hold the blade or utensil at a 30°
angle and scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area of the cooktop.
| 3. Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth or paper towel.
| 4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling on glass’ above.
Spillovers on the touch controls| 1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Soak up the spill
3. Wipe the touch control area with a clean damp sponge or cloth.
4. Wipe the area completely dry with a paper towel.
5. Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
| The cooktop may beep and turn itself off, and the touch controls may not function while there is
liquid on them. Make sure you wipe the touch control area dry before turning the cooktop back on.
WARNING
Spilled sauce, fruit juice, etc. should be wiped off as soon as possible with
a soft cloth soaked in warm water with a detergent.
Do not allow sauces or juices to burn on the cooking plate. This can DAMAGE the glass surface or even melt of the glass surface or make subsequent cleaning much more difficult! The light color change on the plate are normal and don’t have any influence on working performances.
Do not use a steel wool or knives to clean dirt deposits. Grease the deposits
with a cloth soaked with a very damp detergent, but be careful not to scratch
glass top.
The light color change on the plate are normal and don’t have any influence on
working performances.
A steam cleaner is not to be used!

INSTALLATION
Selection of installation equipment
Cut out the work surface according to the sizes shown in the drawing. For the
purpose of installation and use, a minimum of 50mm space shall be preserved
around the hole. Be sure the thickness of the work surface is at least 30mm.
Please select heat-resistant work surface material to avoid larger deformation
caused by the heat radiation from the hotplate. As shown below:
The cooker hob can be used on the table top of cabinet. The hob should be placed horizontally. As shown below:
Under any circumstances, make sure the ceramic cooker hob is well ventilated
and the air inlet and outlet are not blocked. Ensure the ceramic cooker hob is
in good work state. As shown below.
Note: The safety distance between the hotplate and the cupboard above the
hotplate should be at least 650mm.
A (mm)
(min)
| B (mm)| C (mm)| D| E
---|---|---|---|---
650| 50 mini| 30mini| Air intake| Air exit 10 mm
Before locating the fixing brackets
The unit should be placed on a stable, smooth surface (use the packaging). Do
not apply force onto the controls protruding from the hob.
Fix the hob on the work surface by screw four brackets on the bottom of hob
(see picture) after installation. Adjust the bracket position to suit for
different work surface’s thickness.
Put sealing track on the edge of the hob
Attach the worktop to the worktop using the brackets provided in the accessory, as shown in the illustration below.
