PHC720SS Using the ceramic hob Before first use IMPORTANT: You should clean the ceramic hob surface (see “Cleaning and maintenance” section). o You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on the heating elements during transit. o Do not burn off more than one zone at once. o You must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on each zone as you burn it off.
Turning the hob on o Press the ON/OFF button (1) o The cooking zone indicators (6) will all read “0”. o The decimal point symbols (7) will flash on and off. Turning on a zone and setting a power level IMPORTANT: A zone must be selected within 10 seconds of turning the hob on. o Press the plus (4) button for the zone that you want to use. o Adjust the zone between power levels 1 and 9, using the plus (4) and minus (5) buttons.
Turning off a zone instantly o Press the minus button (5) and the plus button (4) simultaneously. o The zone will switch off immediately. o An “H” will show in the cooking zone indicator (6), alternating with “0”. (See the section on the “residual heat indicator” below). Turning the hob off Once you have switched off all of the cooking zones, you should turn off the hob. o Press the ON/OFF button (1). It is possible to turn the hob off at any time by pressing the ON/OFF button (1).

o The positions where the heat will radiate from are clearly marked on the hob top. The saucepans must be positioned exactly on these zones for efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the same diametre as the cooking zone that they are being used on. o You should not use saucepans with rough bottoms, as this can scratch the ceramic surface. o Before use, make sure that the bottoms of the saucepans are clean and dry.
Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning operations must only be carried out when the hob is cool. The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process. Cleaning the ceramic hob top Any residues that are left on the hob top surface from cleaning agents will damage it. You should remove any residues with warm water mixed with a little washing up liquid.
Using a ceramic hob scraper Your appliance will be provided with a hob scraper. The following guidelines should also be followed when using the ceramic hob scraper:- o The scraper should be placed on the ceramic surface at an angle. o Residues should be removed by sliding the blade carefully over the ceramic surface. o The ceramic surface should be wiped with a damp cloth that has been placed in warm water mixed with a small amount of washing up liquid.
Positioning The adjacent furniture must be able to withstand a minimum temperature rise of 85°C above the ambient temperature of the room it is located in, during periods of use. This appliance is classified as Class 3 and therefore is to be built into a kitchen unit (depending on size) or 600 mm worktop, providing the following minimum distances are allowed: o 700 mm between the hob surface and the underside of any horizontal surface above it.
o IMPORTANT: You must have a gap of at least 25 mm between the underneath of the appliance and any surface that is below it. o Carefully turn the hob upside down and place it on a cushioned mat. o Apply the sealing strip provided around the edge of the appliance. o The protective covering must be removed from both sides. o Do not leave a gap in the sealing agent or overlap the thickness. o IMPORTANT: Do not use a silicon sealant to seal the appliance against the aperture.
o Place the fixing brackets (B) over each hole and clip, and then place a screw (C) through the hole and fixing bracket (B). Tighten the screws a little way, so that they stay in place. IMPORTANT: Do not tighten the screws fully. o Carefully turn the hob back over and then gently lower it into the aperture hole that you have cut out. o On the underneath of the hob, locate the fixing brackets (B) and turn them so that they locate on the underneath of the worktop and the hob.
Connecting the mains supply cable o The mains terminal block is located on the underside of the hob and the terminals are accessible by removing the terminal block cover by removing the cover screw. o The cable connections must be in accordance with the diagram located on the bottom of the hob. o 1, 2 and 3 are the live connection, 4 and 5 are the neutral connection and the remaining one is the earth connection. o The live wire MUST be placed in connection number 1.
Replacing the mains supply cable If the mains supply cable is damaged, then it must be replaced by an appropriate replacement. The mains supply cable should be replaced in accordance with the following instructions: o Switch the appliance off at the control switch. o Open the terminal block on the underside of the hob. o Unscrew the terminal screws fixing the cable. o Replace the cable with one of the same length and in accordance with the specification given on page 25.
o The residual heat indicator has not come on after I have switched a cooking zone off. * The cooking zone has only been turned on for a short period of time; therefore it did not go above 60°C. * IMPORTANT: If the cooking zone does appear to be hotter than 60°C and the residual heat indicator has not come on, you should call the Baumatic Service Department. o A humming sound is heard when a cooking zone is selected. * This is normal; the sound will disappear when the zone heats up.
IMPORTANT: If your appliance appears not to be operating correctly, then you should disconnect it from your mains supply and then contact the Baumatic Service Department on telephone number (0118) 933 6911. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE APPLIANCE YOURSELF.
