Before the first use Read the section on the "Data plate" and attach the plate, which is included with the appliance documents, in the location specified in "Technical Service". First cleaning Remove any protective foil and stickers. Before the first use, wipe down the appliance with a damp cloth and dry it. Do NOT use dish liquid to clean the glass ceramic cooktop, because this can cause permanent blue discolorations.
Induction How induction works Under each induction cooking zone, there is an induction coil. When the cooking zone is switched on, the coil generates a magnetic field that acts directly on the bottom of the pot/pan to heat it up. The cooking zone heats up indirectly, only from the heat given off by the pot/pan. Cooking zones with induction only work with cookware that has a magnetizable bottom (see "Cookware"). The induction process automatically takes into account the size of the cookware being used.
Induction Noise When you use an induction cooking zone, the following noises may occur, depending on the the type and shape of the cookware bottom: – The zone may hum at the higher power settings. The humming will become quieter or disappear if you lower the power setting. To extend the life of the electronics, the appliance is equipped with a cooling fan. If the appliance is under heavy use, the fan will start, and you will hear it whirring.
Induction Cookware Type of cookware Suitable cookware is made of: – Stainless steel with a magnetizable bottom – enamel-coated steel – Cast iron Unsuitable cookware is made of: – Stainless steel with a non-magnetizable bottom – Aluminum, copper – Glass/ceramic/earthenware/ stoneware If you are not sure whether a pot or pan is suitable for induction, you can test it using a magnet against the bottom. If the magnet sticks, the cookware can be used.
Operation Sensor switches Switching on The control panel on your ceramic cooktop is equipped with electronic sensor switches. They respond to finger contact. To operate the cooking zones, simply touch the corresponding sensor switches. Every response of the sensor switches is acknowledged with an acoustic signal. Begin by switching on cooktop and thean the desired cooking zone. Do not leave the appliance unattended during operation! Switching on the cooktop ^ Tap the ON/OFF sensor s.

Operation Booster function The cooking zones are equipped with a Single (I) or Twin (I/II) booster (see Description of the appliance). The booster function boosts power so that large quantities can be quickly heated, such as water for cooking pasta. When Booster I is switched on, the cooking zones operate for 10 minutes with extra power, and when Booster II is used, for 15 minutes with extra high power.
Operation Switch on Booster I Switching off the Booster. ^ Switch the desired cooking zone on. The Booster function can be switched off early. ^ Touch the sensor areaB for the associated cooking zone. I will appear in the cooking zone display, and the Booster function indicator light will also come on.
Operation Hold Tips Each cooking zone has a hold setting. Use only cookware (pots/pans) for keeping food warm. Cover the cookware with a lid. If it has been activated, the cooking zone switches off after a maximum of two hours' operation. This function is for keeping food warm immediately after cooking, in other words food that is already hot. It is not for reheating food that has gone cold! 24 It is not necessary to stir the food while it is being kept warm.
Operation Switching off and Residual heat indicator Switching off a cooking zone ^ At the same time, tap the - and + sensors. 0 will appear in the cooking zone display for a few seconds. If the cooking zone is still hot, the residual heat will be indicated in the display. Switching off the cooktop The bars in the residual temperature display gradually disappear as the cooking zones cool down. The last bar goes out when the cooking zones can be touched again without danger.
Timer The timer can be used for two different functions: – setting a minute minder – to set a cooking zone to switch off automatically. You can set times from 1 minute (01) to 9 1/2 (9.^) hours. For times of more than 99 minutes (99) settings are made in half-hour steps. Half hours are represented by a dot following the number. Use the - sensor to reduce the time from 9.^ to 00, and the + sensor to increase the time from 00 to 9^. The display stops at 2h and at 99.
Timer Switching off a cooking zone automatically In order to be able to program the automatic shut-off, you must first set the cooking zone to a particular power setting. All of the cooking zones can be programmed at the same time. If the time programmed is longer than the maximum permissible operating time, the cooking zone will switch off when that time has been reached (see the relevant section). ^ Begin as usual, by setting the cooking zone - for example, the right rear - to the desired power level.
Timer Using timer functions at the same time The timer and the automatic switch-off can be used simultaneously. If you have one or more switch-off times programmed and would like to use the minute minder as well: touch the m sensor repeatedly until indicator light for the minute minder flashes. If you are using the minute minder and would like to program in one or more switch-off times as well: press the m sensor repeatedly until the indicator light for the desired cooking zone is flashing.
Safety features Safety lock / System lock Activation To prevent cooktop and cooking zones from being inadvertently switched on or their settings changed, your appliance is equipped with a safety lock. ^ Touch the $ sensor until the associated indicator light appears. The safety lock is activated when the cooktop is switched on. If it is activated, the appliance may only be operated to a limited degree: – The cooking zone power levels and the timer settings cannot be changed.
Safety features Stop and Go Activation Your appliance is equipped with a feature which, when activated, enables you to simultaneously reduce the power levels of all active cooking zones to level1. If you then de-activate the feature, the cooking zones will automatically return to their previous level. If the feature is not de-activated, the cooktop will switch off after 1 hour. ^ Touch the $ sensor until you hear two immediately consecutive signal tones.
Safety features Safety switch-off If the sensors are covered Your cooktop is equipped with a safety switch-off. Your cooktop will switch off automatically if one or more of the sensors remains covered for longer than approximately 10 seconds, for example by finger contact, food boiling over, or by any object laid on top of them.
Safety features Overheat protection All induction coils and the cooling elements for the electronics are fitted with overheating protection. Before the induction coils or the cooling elements overheat, the overheat protection initiates the following measures for the affected cooking zone or the entire cooktop: – Any Booster function in operation will be switched off. – The power level set will be reduced.
Cleaning and care ,NEVER use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. The steam can reach the electrical components and cause the appliance to short circuit. Clean the entire appliance after each use. Let the appliance cool down before cleaning. Dry the appliance any time water is used to clean it - this helps prevent lime spots.
Cleaning and care Glass ceramic First wipe down the surface with a damp cloth to loosen soiling, then remove stubborn crusting with a glass scraper. Finish by cleaning the cooking zone with a special cleaner for glass ceramic and stainless steel (see the section "Additional accessories") and paper towel or a clean cloth. Do not apply cleaner to a hot cooking zone, as this can leave spots. Follow the instructions indicated by the manufacturer of the cleaning product.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION Note to the installer: Please leave this instruction book with the consumer for the local electrical inspector’s use. The minimum distances given in these Installation Instructions must be observed in order to ensure safe operation. Failure to do so increases the risk of fire. The cabinetry and venting hood should be installed first to prevent damage to the appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION Safety distances above the appliance If there is more than one appliance beneath a hood (e.g. wok burner and electric cooktop), and they have different minimum safety distances, always observe the greater distance. The minimum safety distance given by the hood manufacturer must be maintained between the cooktop and the hood above it. See the installation instructions of the hood for these safety measurements.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION Safety distances to the sides and rear of the cooktop If you are installing a cooktop, it is allowed to have cabinets or walls of any height on one side and at the rear, but on the other side there must be no appliance or furniture standing higher than the cooktop (see illustrations). Not allowed Following minimum safety clearances must be kept: – 50 mm to the right or left of the countertop cut-out to the nearest piece of furniture (e.g., a tall cupboard).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION Safety distance underneath the cooktop To ensure sufficient ventilation of the appliance, a certain gap must be left between the underside of the cooktop and any oven, intermediate shelf or drawer. The minimum distance from the underside of the cooktop to – the top of an oven must be 15 mm. – the top of an intermediate shelf must be 15 mm. At the rear, to accommodate the electrical power cable, a gap of 10 mm must be provided.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION Safety distance when installing the appliance near a wall with trim or a back splash A minimum distance of 2" (50 mm) between the trim or back splash and the countertop cut-out if required.
