If you wear an active implantable medical device (e.g. a pacemaker or defibrillator), check with your doctor that it complies with Council Directive 90/385/EEC of 20th June 1990, EN 45502-2-1 and EN 45502-2-2, and that it has been chosen, implanted and programmed in accordance with VDE-AR-E 2750-10. If these conditions are satisfied, and if, in addition, non-metal cooking utensils and cookware with non-metal handles are used, it is safe to use this induction hob as intended. If these conditions are satisfied, and if, in addition, non-metal cooking utensils and cookware with non-metal handles are used, it is safe to use this induction hob as intended. 2 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. Children must not 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. Safetyen 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 flue 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 drop more than 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) below atmospheric pressure. 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 does not 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. 3 enSafety 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. The hotplate heats up but the display does not work. Switch off the fuse in the fuse box. Call the customer service. 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. The appliance becomes hot during operation. Allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning. If hot liquids penetrate the appliance, only remove the grease filter or the overflow container once the appliance has cooled down. WARNING Risk of electric shock! Incorrect 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 of this appliance is dam- aged, it must be replaced with a special connection cable, which is available from the manufacturer or his 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. Never pull on the power cord to unplug the appliance. Always unplug the appliance at the mains. If the appliance or the power cord is damaged, immediately unplug the power cord or switch off the fuse in the fuse box. Call customer services. Page 20 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. 4 Avoiding material damageen 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. 2 Avoiding material damage This is where you can find the most common causes of damage and tips on how to avoid them.

Overheating Hot cookware on the control panel or on the frame. Action Monitor the cooking process. Remove immediately with a glass scraper. Use suitable cookware that is in a good condition. Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for glass ceramic, and only clean the hob when it is cold. When cooking, do not hit the glass or let objects fall onto the hob. Check the cookware. Lift the cookware when moving it. Do not use the hob as a work surface or storage space. Never use frozen cookware. Never place or heat empty cookware on a hot cooking zone. Do not place greaseproof paper or aluminium foil nor plastic containers or pot lids on the hob. Never place hot cookware on these areas. 3 Environmental protection and saving energy 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. 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. 5 enSuitable cookware 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. 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. 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 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 cookware is not detected on a cooking zone, place this on the cooking zone with the next smallest diameter. 4.1Size 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 Cookware test to check whether your cookware is suitable. You can find more information about this under "Cookware test", Page 13. Cookware Recommended cookware Suitable Materials Stainless steel cookware in a sandwich design that distributes the heat well. Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelled steel, cast iron or special induction cookware made of stainless steel. The base is not fully ferromagnetic. Cookware bases with aluminium content. Properties This cookware distributes the heat evenly, heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be detected easily. This cookware heats up quickly and ensures that it can be detected easily. 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. 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 aluminium. 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. 6 Familiarising yourself with your applianceen 5 Familiarising yourself with your appliance 5.1Cooking 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 the heat is generated directly in the cookware. 5.2Your new appliance Information about your new appliance 5.4The control panel Individual details, such as colour and shape, may differ from the figure. 1 2 3 4 5 No. Designation 1 Grease filter 2 Odour filter for circulating-air mode or acoustics filter for air extraction mode 1 3 Hob 4 Control panel 5 Overflow container 1 Depending on the appliance specifications. 5.3Special accessories Depending on the appliance model, various accessories are available and you can obtain these from specialist retailers, from our after-sales service or from our official website. ¡ Air extraction set ¡ Air recirculation set ¡ Odour filter for recirculating air mode ¡ Acoustics filter for air extraction mode Selection sensors Sensor / Function Main switch Selecting the cooking zone Selecting settings PowerBoost function Intensive ventilation setting Timer function Childproof lock Manual ventilation control Displays Display - - / Function Operating status Power levels Ventilation settings Residual heat PowerBoost function Intensive ventilation setting Time-setting options Touch fields and displays Touch a symbol to activate the function it represents. ¡ Always keep the control panel clean and dry.

Do not touch the cooking zone if the residual heat indicator is lit. Display Meaning The cooking zone is hot. The cooking zone is warm. 6 Operating modes You can use your appliance in air extraction mode or circulating-air mode. 6.1Air extraction mode The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system. The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the room). ¡ If the exhaust air is to be conveyed into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, you must obtain the consent of the heating engineer responsible. ¡ If the exhaust air is conveyed through the external wall, a telescopic duct should be used. 6.2Air recirculation mode The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and an odour filter, and conveyed back into the room. To bind odours in circulating-air mode, you must install an odour filter. The different options for operating the appliance in circulating-air mode can be found in our catalogue. Alternatively, ask your dealer. The required accessories are available from specialist retailers, from customer service or from the Online Shop. 7 Before using for the first time Observe the following recommendations. 7.1Preparing the appliance To ensure correct operation, you must arrange the components in this order: 1. Insert the filter. 2. Insert the metal grease filter. Note: Never operate the appliance without the metal grease filter and the overflow container. 7.2Setting the operating mode The appliance is supplied with a preset circulating-air mode. When your hob is installed with an air outlet to the outside, you must configure the setting to this mode.
