Causes of Damage
9 CAUTION
Heat damage on adjoining appliances or
furniture
Heat and moisture arise when the appliance is
operated for a prolonged period of time.
Additional ventilation is required. Open
windows or switch on a ventilation hood that
leads to the outside.
9 CAUTION
Damage to the appliance due to heat build-up
Do not heat any roasters, pans or grill stones
with several burners at a time.
9 CAUTION
Malfunction
Always set control knobs to the zero position
when the appliance is not in operation.
9 CAUTION
Avoid scratching the cooktop when removing
and fitting the pan support. Remove it with both
hands in the upward direction.
Environmental protection
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in
line with environmental requirements.
Tips for saving energy
Use pots and pans with flat bottoms. Uneven
bottoms increase energy consumption.
For small amounts, use a small pot. A large pot
that isn't very full requires a lot of energy.
Always cover pots with a lid that fits. When
cooking without a lid, you need four times more
energy.
Cook with little water. This saves energy. The
vitamins and minerals in vegetables are
preserved.
Switch promptly back to a lower setting for
cooking.
