Before using the appliance for the first time Clean the glass-ceramic surface with a damp cloth and some manual dishwashing detergent. Do not use aggressive detergents such as abrasive cleaners that can scratch the surface, abrasive dishwashing sponges, or stain removers.
Cookware Tips on using the cookware Use high-quality cookware with a flat and stable bottom. • Transmission of heat is best when the pan bottom and the cooking zone are of the same diameter, and the pan is placed on the middle of the cooking zone. • When using a tempered glass (Pyrex) or porcelain cookware, please follow the cookware manufacturer’s instructions. • When using a pressure cooker, do not leave it unattended until the desired pressure is reached.
OPERATING THE COOKING ZONES • The cooking hob is fitted with electronic sensor keys which are activated, respectively, when the indicated surface of a particular sensor is touched with a finger for at least one second. • Activation of a sensor key is confirmed by a beep. • Do not place any objects on the sensor key surface (this may trigger error reports). • Make sure the sensor key surface is always clean. Turning on the cooking hob • Touch the on/off sensor key (A) and hold it for at least one second.
• Reheating function is activated by pressing the “–” (I) sensor key until the power level is set to 1 . Turning off the cooking zones • Select the cooking zone by pressing the relevant sensor key (H). The decimal point (F1) next to the display for the selected cooking zone will light up. • Press the “–” (I) sensor key to set the power level to “0”. • Quick power off: the power level can be instantly set to “0” by pressing the “+” (G) sensor key and “–” (I) sensor key simultaneously.
Residual heat indicators As soon as a hot coking zone is switched off, or when the entire cooking hob is turned off, the following is displayed on the display of each hot cooking zone: - “H” if the cooking zone is still hot; - “h” if the cooking zone is cooling down and is warm to touch. The duration of this display is calculated given the power level and depends on how long the cooking zone has been activated.
The power boost function is appropriate for the following: • Food that is cold at the beginning of preparation is quickly warmed up, and then left to cook for a longer period of time; with the power boost function, this can be done without constantly controlling the cooking process (e.g. beef stew).
Cooking zone expansion (depending on the model) Activating the cooking zone expansion • For a selected cooking one (a decimal point is lit next to the display for the currently selected zone), an additional heating coil can be activated by pressing the (J) sensor key. The signal light (E) next to the display will light up. • Select the cooking zone for both heating coils. • If a cooking zone also features a third heating coil, this can also be engaged by pressing the (J) sensor key once again.
If the STOP & GO function is not deactivated in 10 minutes, the entire cooking hob will be witched off automatically. Programmable timer (depending on the model) The appliance offers two timer functions: A alarm function – countdown without the switch-off option B switch-off function – countdown with the switch-off option for respective cooking zones.
Cooking time can be set for each cooking zone independently. If several timers have been programmed, the time that is closest to zero will always be displayed. This is indicated by a flashing signal light (L) which indicates the cooking field. Changing the timer setting • Timer setting can be changed any time during operation. • Press the timer sensor key (D) to display the remaining time for the selected cooking field. The corresponding signal light (K) will flash.
Special warnings and fault reports • If all power levels are set to “00”, the cooking hob will be turned off automatically after 10 seconds. • If any of the keys is activated for more than 10 seconds, the cooking hob will be turned off, an alarm will sound, and the symbol “F” will flash on the display. • If several keys are covered by an object or if boiled-over liquid is spilt over the surface of the sensor keys, the cooking hob will automatically go off after a certain period of time.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Cleaning Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 After each use of the glass-ceramic hob, wait for it to cool down and clean it; otherwise, even the smallest food residue will be burnt onto the hot surface next time you use the appliance. For regular cleaning and maintenance of the glass-ceramic surface, use special conditioning agents which form a protective layer on the surface, shielding it from dirt.
Figure 5 Sugar and sugar-laden food may permanently damage the glass-ceramic surface (Figure 5); therefore, they should be removed from the glass-ceramic surface as soon as possible, although the cooking zone may still be hot (Figure 4). Any change in the color of the glass-ceramic surface does not affect its operation or the stability of the surface.
