2. Things to watch out for

2.1 Notes on the right types of saucepans

Use only pots and pans with bottoms that are firm, even and as thick as possible. This applies particularly to
cooking with high temperatures, e.g. deep-frying. Uneven bottoms extend cooking times and increase energy
consumption. The best transmission result is obtained when the pots and the cooking zone are of equal dimension.
Always use a lid. Energy is wasted if you cook without a lid placed correctly on the pan.
In order to work directly on the cooking zones, you can use cooking utensils made from fireproof glass or porcelain
if their bottoms are flat polished. Please note the manufacturer's instructions.
Always take away overflow food.
Clean the hob before using it for the first time. Afterwards, switch on the elements to the
highest level one after the other , without pots, for three minutes in order to eliminate
any odours due to newness or and so that any moisture that may still be in the heating
element may evaporate. This is necessary so that the electronic circuits function
properly.

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.
Do not use the glass ceramic hob as a storage area! Never prepare food in aluminium foil and plastic containers
on the hot cooking area.
Do not switch the hob on without using it for cooking. Do not place combustible, volatile or heat deformable objects
directly underneath the hob.
When preparing food with fat or oil stay nearby. Overheated oil can ignite. Never pour water into burning fat or oil.
Risk of burning! Cover the dish in order to extinguish the fire and switch off the cooking zone. Let the dish cool
down on the cooking zone.
Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner or similar appliance!
