Depending on the model, the hob may include the
following accessories. These can also be acquired from
the Technical Assistance Service.

Automatic ignition
If the hob has automatic ignition (ignition plugs):
1. Press the control knob for the selected burner and
turn it anticlockwise to the highest power level.
While the control knob is held down, all the burners
will generate sparks. The flame ignites. Wait a few
seconds.
2. Release the control knob.
3. Turn the control knob to the required position.
If the burner does not ignite, switch it off and repeat the
steps described above. This time, hold the control knob
down for longer (up to 10 seconds).
:Warning – Risk of deflagration!
If the flame does not ignite after 15 seconds, switch off
the burner and open a window or the door to the room.
Wait at least one minute before switching the burner on
again.
Caution!
Never try to switch directly from position 0 to position 1
or from position 1 to position 0.
Note: It is important to keep the appliance clean. If the
ignition plugs are dirty, this may cause ignition
problems. Clean the ignition plugs regularly with a
small, non-metallic brush. Take care to prevent the
ignition plugs from suffering any heavy knocks.
Switching on manually
1. Press the control knob for the selected burner and
turn it anticlockwise to the highest power setting.
2. Hold an igniter or a naked flame (such as a lighter or
a match) against the burner.
Safety system
Your hob is equipped with a safety system
(thermocouple) that cuts off the gas when the burners
are accidentally switched off.
To ensure that this device is active:
1. Switch on the burner as usual.
2. Without releasing the control knob, press and hold it
down firmly for 4 seconds after lighting the flame.
Switching off a burner
Turn the corresponding control knob clockwise to the 0
setting.
A few seconds after the burner is switched off, a sound
(thud) will be produced. This is not a fault - this means
that the safety device is no longer operating.
Warnings
It is normal to hear a soft whistling noise while the
burner is operating.

Only suitable for use on the
smallest burner. Use cookware
with a diameter of less than
12 cm.
Simmer plate
This accessory part is only suita-
ble for simmering. It can be
used with the economy burner
or the standard-output burner. If
your hob has several standard-
output burners, we recommend
placing the simmer plate on the
rear or front-right standard-out-
put burner.
Place the accessory component
with the projections facing
upwards on the holder; never
place it directly on the burner.

When first used, it is normal for the burner to give off
odours. This does not pose any risk and does not
indicate a malfunction. They will disappear in time.
An orange-coloured flame is normal. This is caused by
the presence of dust in the atmosphere, spilt liquids, etc.
In the event of the burner flames being accidentally
extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not
attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least one minute.

The dual-circuit hotplate has two usable hotplates: A
small 700 W hotplate and a slightly larger 1800 W
hotplate (provided your appliance operates at a voltage
of 230 V).
Operation
Switching on
To switch on the small hotplate:
Turn the control knob clockwise to the required
position. The power on/off indicator lights up.
To switch on the larger hotplate:
Turn the control knob clockwise to õ and then turn it
anticlockwise to the required heat setting.
To use the small hotplate again, turn the control knob
anticlockwise to position 0 and then switch the hotplate
on again.
Note: It is recommended to start cooking on full power
and then to use intermediate power levels after a few
minutes.
Switching off
Turn the control knob anticlockwise to the "off" position.
The residual heat indicator switches off once the hob
has cooled down.
Residual heat
The electric hob can be switched off slightly before the
end of the cooking time. The residual heat will enable
you to continue cooking for several minutes, thus
saving energy.
Warnings
Do not allow liquids to be spilt on the surface of the
electric hob.
Do not cook with wet pans.

Suitable pans
The cookware must not overhang the edge of the hob.
You should only use cookware with a domed base if
your cooktop features a wok burner and the additional
wok grid. The additional wok grid must be correctly
positioned.
Precautions for use
The following advice is intended to help you save
energy and prevent pan damage:
Í
Í
Burner Minimum diame-
ter of the cook-
ware base
Maximum diame-
ter of the cook-
ware base
High-output burner 20 cm 26 cm
Standard-output burner 14 cm 22 cm
Economy burner 12 cm 16 cm
Electric hotplate 14 cm 18 cm
Use pans which are the
right size for each burner.
Do not use small pans on
large burners. The flame
must not touch the sides of
the pan.
Do not use damaged pans,
which do not sit evenly on
the hob. Pans may tip over.
Only use pans with a thick,
flat base.
Do not cook without using a
lid and make sure the lid is
properly fitted. This wastes
energy.
Always centre the pan over
the burner, not to one side.
Otherwise it could tip over.
Do not place large pans on
the burners near the control
knobs. These may be
damaged by the very high
temperatures.
Place the pans on the pan
supports, never directly on
the burner.
Make sure that the pan
supports and burner caps
are correctly positioned
before using the appliance.
Pans should be placed on
the hob carefully.
Do not strike the hob and
do not place excessive
weight on it.
