Chapters 2 and 3 of these Operating Instructions contain information on how you can make sure that your hob provides many years of service. These Operating Instructions are for use with several types of hobs. The nameplate on the front of these Instructions will show you which type you have bought. Contents 1. [. . . ] Things to watch out for 2. 1 Important tips for induction 2. 1. 1 Induction cooking zones and mess tin Your ceramic hob is equipped with induction cooking zones which are characterised by high performance when it comes to quick heating and energy saving. The heat is generated directly in the bottoms of the pots where it's needed, without a loss of energy through the ceramic hob. That's why the energy consumption is lower than with normal radiation heating elements. The ceramic hob is not directly heated, though it becomes hot due to the effect of heat reflected by the pan. When the cooking zones are switched off, a hot cooking zone is indicated by the flashing "H" (residual heat indicator). In induction cooking zones, heating is achieved by means of an induction coil installed below the ceramic hob which produces an electromagnetic field. With the use of magnetizable pans or dishes made of steel, steel mesh or iron cast (suitable for induction ceramic hob), energy is transmitted directly to the bottom of the equipment. Only use induction cooking zones with suitable cooking utensils, made of materials such as steel, steel mesh or cast iron. Stainless steel pans with copper or aluminium bottoms and glass pans are not suitable. When you purchase a set of pans, check for the label "Suitable for induction". 2. 1. 2 Protection against overheating The ceramic hob is provided with a protection against overheating, which protects the electronics against damage. The protection against overheating works in several stages. If there is a significant increase in the heat of the ceramic hob, then a two-stage fan switches on. If this is not enough, then the power level mode will be deactivated and the power for the individual cooking zones decreased or switched off completely. Full power will be available again once the ceramic hob has cooled down. 2. 1. 3 General The best transmission is obtained when the pots and the cooking zone are of equal dimension. Energy is wasted if you cook without a lid placed correctly on the pan. Always take away overflow food. Clean the hob before using it for the first time. 2. 2 Important Attention: The surfaces of the heating and cooking zones become hot during use. Keep small children away at all times. Always ensure that no hard objects are dropped onto the cooking surface. Under certain circumstances the material is sensitive to mechanical stresses and strains. A heavy knock or blow in a small area can cause the ceramic hob to break. If careless treatment results in a break, split or crack, the ceramic hob must immediately be taken out of use and disconnected from the mains power supply. To do this, switch off the safety switch for the oven connection in the fuse box. Customer Service must be contacted. Objects made out of metal, like knifes, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the cooking zones, because they might become hot. [. . . ] If the hob is installed in a worktop with a ceramic or similar cover (tiles), remove the hob seal and seal the hob from the worktop with a plastic seal, such as heat-resistant silicone rubber. Important!If the hob is installed above furniture parts (side walls, drawers, etc. ) it must be ensured that accidental contact with the underside of the hob is prevented by means of a touch guard. The touch guard may only be capable of removal with suitable tools and must be attached to the underside of the cooking surface at a minimum distance of 20 mm so that the mains connection cable does not touch the underside of the cooking surface (Fig. The back wall of the cabinet must be open in order to provide for air circulation.
