OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Safety
The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted technical stan−
dards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, as manufacturers we
also believe it is our responsibility to familiarise you with the following sa−
fety instructions.
Electrical Safety
• The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be car−
ried out by qualified personnel.
• Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved service
engineers. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause in−
jury or serious malfunctioning. If your appliance needs repairing, please
contact your local customer center or your dealer.
Please follow these instructions, otherwise the warranty will not cover
any damage that may occur.
• Flush−mounted appliances may only be operated following installation
in suitable installation cabinets and workplaces which conform to the
relevant standards. This ensures sufficient protection against contact for
electrical units as required by the VDE [Association of German Electrical
Engineers].
• If your appliance malfunctions or if fractures, cracks or splits appear:
− switch off all cooking zones,
− disconnect the hob from the electricity supply.
Child Safety
The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always keep
small children away from the appliance.
Safety During Use
• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the
home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.
• Do not use the hob to heat the room.
5
• Take care when plugging electric appliances into mains sockets near the
hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot surface.
• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise cooking
when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).
• Switch off the cooking zones after use.
Safety When Cleaning
• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high
pressure cleaner.
• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning in−
structions in this manual.
To Avoid Damaging Your Appliance
• Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.
• Do not operate the cooking zones when there is no pan or the pans are
empty.
• Ceramic glass is insensitve to temperature shock and very robust; howe−
ver it is not unbreakable. Especially sharp and hard objects that fall on
the cooking surface can damage it.
• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged
base. Scratching may occur if the pans are slid across the surface.
• Do not place any pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage to the
paint may occur.
• Make sure that no acidic liquids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or descaling agents,
are spilt onto the hob frame, since these cause dull spots.
• If sugar or a preparation with sugar comes into contact with the hot
cooking zone and melts there it must be cleaned off immediately with a
scraper while it is still hot. If it cools, the surface may be damaged when
it is removed.
• Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the ceramic glass
surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If something of this
nature should melt onto the ceramic glass surface, it must also be remo−
ved immediately using the scraper.

The Key Features of Your Appliance
• Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic glass cooking sur−
face and 4 rapid response cooking zones. The particularly powerful radiant
heater elements significantly shorten the amount of time taken for the zones
to heat up.
• Sensor fields: Your appliance is operated using Touch Control sensor fields.
• Cleaning: The advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and the sensor
fields is their accessibility for cleaning. The smooth, flat surface is easy to clean.
• On/Off sensor field: The On/Off" sensor field provides the appliance with a se−
parate mains switch. Touching this switches the power supply on or off com−
pletely.
• Control and function indicators: Digital indicators or control lamp provide in−
formation about settings made, functions activated, as well as any residual
heat of the corresponding cooking zone.
• Safety cut−out: A safety cut−out ensures that all cooking zones switch off au−
tomatically after a period of time if the setting has not been changed.
• Keep Warm: this setting is used for keeping food warm.
• Stop+Go sensor field: Touching this sensor field changes all cooking zones
currently in use to the keep warm" function: touching the field again restores
the zones to their former settings. This function can be useful in certain situa−
tions, for example if you are suddenly called away from the cooker.
• Residual heat indicator: An for residual heat is shown in the display if the
cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burning.
• Multipurpose cooking zone: The hob is equipped with a multipurpose/ casse−
role cooking zone. Depending on the setting, it can be used as a round or oval
cooking zone, e.g. for oval casseroles or for keeping dishes or food warm.
• Triple ring cooking zone: The hob features a triple−ring cooking zone. This zone
can be set to different sizes, for example to fit smaller pots. This will save
power.
• Timer: All zones can be automatically switched off using the integrated timer.
When the end of the cooking time has been reached, the cooking zone swit−
ches off.

21
Timer
There are two ways to use the timer:
− as a safety cut−out function. Set a cooking period for a cooking zone,
and after this time has elapsed the cooking zone will automatically
switch itself off. This function can be used for more than one cooking
zone simultaneously.
− as a countdown timer without a cut−out function ("egg timer"), whereby
an acoustic signal can be heard after the set period of time has elapsed.
The countdown timer cannot be used if a cooking zone is switched on.
Safety cut−out
The cooking zone(s) for which you want to use the safety cut−out function
must be switched on.
1. Using the timer sensor panel, select the cooking zone for which the safety
cut−out is to be set.
By touching the timer sensor panel once the first active cooking zone is
selected in a clockwise direction, and the corresponding control lamp will
flash rapidly. Hereby the (e.g.) left rear control lamp corresponds to the left
will appear in the timer display.
rear cooking zone.
The next active cooking zone is selected by touching the timer sensor panel
again.

2. While the control lamp is flashing rapidly, use the
or
timersetting
sensor panels to set the desired period of time for this cooking zone up un−
til the point where it automatically switches itself off (e.g. 15 minutes).
The safety cut−out function will be activated after several minutes.
The control lamp will now flash more slowly and the remaining cooking
time will be shown in the display as it elapses. If the safety cut−out func−
tion has been set for more than one cooking zone, the time displayed will
be that for the cooking zone with the shortest period of cooking time re−
maining. The control lamps for the other cooking zones for which the sa−
fety cut−out function has been set will illuminate. To display the remaining
cooking time for any of these cooking zones, it must be selected using the
timer sensor panel, and the corresponding control lamp will then flash ra−
pidly.
To reset the remaining cooking time the desired cooking zone must be se−
lected using the timer sensor panel. The corresponding control lamp will

Uses, Tables and Tips
Pans
The better the pan, the better the results.
• You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick
and flat as possible.
• Pay particular attention when buying new pans to the diameter of the
base. Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
• Pots with aluminium or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring on
the glass ceramic surface, which is very difficult or impossible to re−
move.
• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged
base. This can produce permanent scratching if the pan is slid across the
surface.
• When cold, pan bases are normally
bowed slightly inwards (concave).
They should never be
bowed outwards (convex).
• If you wish to use special types of
pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, simmering
pan, wok, etc.), please observe
the manufacturer’s instructions.
Energy saving tips
You can save valuable energy by observing the following points:
• Always position pots and pans before
switching on the cooking zone.
• Dirty cooking zones and pan bases
increase power consumption.
• Whenever possible always position
the lids firmly on pots and
pans to cover completely.
25
• Switch off the cooking zones before
the end of the cooking time
to use the residual heat such as to
keep foods warm or for melting.
• The base of the pan should be the
same size as the cooking zone.
• Using a pressure cooker reduces
cooking times by up to 50%.
Advice on Cooking with and without Automatic Warm up
The automatic warm up function is suitable for:
• dishes that start off cold, are heated up at high power and do not need
to be continually watched when cooking on the selected heat setting,
• dishes that are put in a hot frying pan.
The automatic warm up function is not suitable for:
• goulash, beef olives and similar braised dishes that need continual tur−
ning until browned correctly, have liquid added and are then braised
until cooked,
• dumplings, pasta dishes with large amounts of liquid,
• cooking with pressure cookers,
• very large quantities of soup/stew with more than 2 litres of liquid.
General notes:
• When cooking without the automatic warm up function, we recom−
mend the use of a high heat setting to warm up the food (using the
button) and then leave the dish to finish cooking at an appropriate lo−
wer heat setting.
• Take special note of the results when you first use the appliance! You
can then decide which heat setting is the best for "your dishes" in the
"quantities you are accustomed to preparing" with "your pans". You will
then quickly appreciate the advantages of the automatic function and
will feel relaxed about using your new hob.

Cleaning and care
Ceramic Glass
Important: Cleaners must not come into contact with the ceramic glass
when hot! All cleaners must be removed with plenty of clean water after
cleaning as they may have a caustic effect when the rings are next heated!
Do not use any aggressive cleaners, such as e.g. grill or oven sprays, coarse
scouring cleaners or pan cleaners that cause scratches.
Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is hand warm or
cold. This means you will avoid soiling becoming burnt on.
Remove scale and water marks, fat spots and metallic shimmering discolo−
ration with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner,
e.g. with "Stahl−Fix or Vitroclen.
Light Soilage
1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and a little washing up
liquid.
2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. No residues of cleaner must be left on the
surface.
3. Once a week, thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass surface with a com−
mercially available ceramic glass cleaner such as Vitroclen.
4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface with plenty of clean water and rub dry
with a clean fluff−free cloth.
Stubborn Soilage
1. To remove food that has boiled over or
burnt on spots, use a glass scraper.
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the
glass ceramic surface.
3. Remove soiling by sliding the scraper.
You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic
glass cleaners from your specialist retailers.
28
Burnt on Soilage
1. Remove burnt on sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other melted ma−
terials immediately, while the hob is still hot, using a glass scraper.
Important: When using the glass scraper
on the hot cooking zone, there is a risk of
burns!
2. Clean the cooking surface as normal once it is
cold.
If the cooking zone has cooled down already
prior to the soilage being removed, warm it up
again for cleaning.
Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic glass
surface, which have been caused by a pan
base with sharp edges, cannot be removed.
However, they do not impair the function of
the cooking surface.
The Hob Frame
Important! Do not put vinegar, lemons or scale removers on the hob frame,
otherwise matt spots will appear.
1. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid.
2. Soften dried dirt with a wet cloth. Then wipe off and rub dry.
