[. . . ] • CAUTION: This cooktop complies with all applicable safety and electromagnetic compatibility legislation. However, persons with pacemaker should keep at a safe distance from the appliance. This is because it is not possible to guarantee that all pacemakers on the market comply with the standards in compliance with which this appliance was tested so it is not possible to provide an absolute guarantee of the absence of potentially harmful interference. 4 PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS Attention: Before any maintenance on the appliance disconnect it from the electrical power supply. • Do not place metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons or lids on the surfaces of the hob as they can become hot. [. . . ] For cream based omelettes, eggs, hollandaise sauce, keeping food warm, melting butter, chocolate or jelly. The residual heat light goes on automatically when the cooking zone is turned off (depending on the residual heat in the cooking zone). 6 ENERGY SAVING TIPS • Use pots and pans whose bottom diameter is equal to that of the cooking zone. • Only use magnetic pots and pans with a flat bottom. This makes it possible to use a lower setting and save energy. • Boil vegetables and potatoes with little water to save energy. • A pressure cooker makes it possible to save more energy and time than traditional pots. After use, when a cooking zone or the entire hob is turned off, a residual heat indicator goes on displaying an H (hot) for each cooking zone used, indicating that the corresponding cooking zone is still dangerously hot. The H stays on until the cooking zone has reached a safe level (around 60 °C). An automatic switch off device activates if a cooking zone is accidentally left on for a long time. It can be turned back on immediately if necessary by using the controls. To prevent damage to the electronic circuits, the hob is equipped with a sensor which constantly monitors the temperature of these circuits. In cases of overheating, the hob turns off automatically until a safe temperature is reached. To prevent children and others from improperly using the appliance and to protect you from accidentally turning on the hob during cleaning operations, the hob is equipped with a safety lock, the key button. By pressing this button the hob is locked and the red LED turns on. if the surface is cracked, turn off the appliance to prevent the risk of electrical shocks and call the After Sales Service. NO! CARE AND MAINTENANCE • Use a clean cloth, kitchen wipes, washing up liquid, specific products. • Do not use abrasive powders or detergents, surface cleaning sprays, spot or rust removers, bleach, sponges with abrasive surfaces, or iron pan scourers. • Clean the hob if possible after every use, when it is still warm or after it has cooled. • A steam cleaner is not to be used.
