Using glass ceramic hobs
safely
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
■ If the surface is cracked, switch off the
appliance to avoid the possibility of
electric shock (switch off or unscrew
the fuse). Water that runs through
cracks inside the glass ceramic hob
may be live. Contact our Service Cen-
tre.
■ Do not allow objects to fall onto the
glass ceramic. Even small objects may
cause a great deal of damage if they
come into contact with glass ceramic
in a punctiform manner.
■ Do not use a steam cleaner or pres-
sure cleaner to clean the hob. Steam
could get through cracks into live
electrical components of the hob and
cause short-circuiting.
CAUTION
Risk of injury for children!
Children can injure themselves if they
play over, on or near the hob.
■ Do not store items that could be of
interest to children in the storage
space above or behind the hob. Chil-
dren could be encouraged to climb
onto the hob.
■ Do not leave pot/pan handles stick-
ing out over the edge of the worktop;
this ensures children cannot reach up
and pull down the cookware.
Risk of burns!
The cooking zones get very hot during
operation and will remain hot after
they are switched off.
■ Metallic objects such as knives, forks,
spoons and lids should not be placed
on the hob surface, since they can get
hot.
■ The cooking zones remain hot after
they are switched off; this residual
heat is indicated by the residual heat
indicator.
■ Caution in the event of a power cut:
residual heat may not be indicated.
■ Allow the oven to cool down com-
pletely before cleaning.
Exception: Remove sugary or starchy
contaminants, plastic or aluminium
foil from the hot glass ceramic imme-
diately using a standard sharp scrap-
er. While doing so protect the hands
from burns with oven gloves or pot
holders.
Fire hazard!
Unattended cooking on a hob with fat
or oil can be dangerous
and may result in fi re.
■ NEVER try to extinguish a fi re with
water, but switch off the appliance
and then cover fl ame e.g. with a lid or
a fi re blanket.
■ Do not store items on the cooking
surfaces.
■ The cooking process has to be super-
vised. A short term cooking process
has to be supervised continuously.
■ Use only hob guards designed by the
manufacturer of the cooking appli-
ance or indicated by the manufacturer
