8 or over and by people who have reduced
physical, sensory or mental abilities or inad-
equate experience and/or knowledge,
provided that they are supervised or have
been instructed on how to use the appliance
2
Safety en
safely and have understood the resulting
dangers.
Do not let children play with the appliance.
Children must not perform cleaning or user
maintenance unless they are at least 15 years
old and are being supervised.
Keep children under the age of 8 years away
from the appliance and power cable.
1.4 Safe use
WARNING‒Risk of suffocation!
Children may breathe in or swallow small
parts, causing them to suffocate.
Keep small parts away from children.
Do not let children play with small parts.
Children may put packaging material over their
heads or wrap themselves up in it and suffoc-
ate.
Keep packaging material away from chil-
dren.
Do not let children play with packaging ma-
terial.
WARNING‒Risk of poisoning!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being drawn
back in. Room-air-dependent heat-producing
appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-oper-
ated heaters, continuous flow heaters or water
heaters) obtain combustion air from the room
in which they are installed and discharge the
exhaust gases into the open through an ex-
haust gas system (e.g. a chimney). With the
extractor hood switched on, air is extracted
from the kitchen and the adjacent rooms.
Without an adequate supply of air, the air pres-
sure falls below atmospheric pressure. Toxic
gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft
are sucked back into the living space.
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the
room if the appliance is being operated in
exhaust air mode at the same time as a
room-air-dependent heat-producing appli-
ance is being operated.
It is only possible to safely operate the appli-
ance if the pressure in the room in which the
heating appliance is installed does not fall
below 4Pa(0.04mbar). This can be
achieved whenever the air needed for com-
bustion is able to enter through openings
that cannot be sealed, for example in doors,
windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or
by other technical means. An incoming/ex-
haust air wall box alone is not sufficient to
ensure compliance with the limit.
In any case, consult your responsible chim-
ney sweep. They are able to assess the
house's entire ventilation setup and will sug-
gest the suitable ventilation measures to
you.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the ap-
pliance is operated exclusively in circulating-
air mode.
WARNING‒Risk of fire!
Leaving fat or oil cooking on an unattended
hob can be dangerous and may lead to fires.
Never leave hot oil or fat unattended.
Never attempt to extinguish a fire using wa-
ter; instead, switch off the appliance and
then cover with a lid or a fire blanket.
The cooking surface becomes very hot.
Never place flammable objects on the cook-
ing surface or in its immediate vicinity.
Never place objects on the cooking surface.
The appliance will become hot.
Do not keep combustible objects or aerosol
cans in drawers directly underneath the hob.
Hob covers can cause accidents, for example
due to overheating, catching fire or materials
shattering.
Do not use hob covers.
After every use, switch off the hob using the
main switch.
Do not wait until the hob turns off automatic-
ally as there are no longer any pots and
pans on it.
Fatty deposits in the grease filters may catch
fire.
Never operate the appliance without a
grease filter.
Clean the grease filters regularly.
Never work with naked flames close to the
appliance (e.g. flambéing).
Do not install the appliance near a solid fuel
heating appliance (e.g. wood- or coal-burn-
ing) unless the heating appliance has a
sealed, non-removable cover. There must be
no flying sparks.

Avoiding material damage2 Avoiding material damage
This is where you can find the most common causes of damage and tips on how to avoid them.
Damage Cause Measure
Stains Unsupervised cooking process. Monitor the cooking process.
Stains, blisters Spilled food, especially food with a high
sugar content.
Remove immediately with a glass scraper.
Stains, blisters or frac-
tures in the glass
Defective cookware, cookware with melted
enamel or cookware with copper or alu-
minium base.
Use suitable cookware that is in a good condi-
tion.
Stains, discolouration Unsuitable cleaning methods. Only use cleaning agents that are suitable for
glass ceramic, and only clean the hob when it
is cold.
4
Environmental protection and saving energy en
Damage Cause Measure
Blisters or fractures in
the glass
Knocks or falling cookware, cooking ac-
cessories or other hard or pointed objects.
When cooking, do not hit the glass or let ob-
jects fall onto the hob.
Scratches, discoloura-
tion
Rough cookware bases or moving the cook-
ware on the hob.
Check the cookware. Lift the cookware when
moving it.
Scratches Salt, sugar or sand. Do not use the hob as a work surface or stor-
age space.
Damage to the appli-
ance
Cooking with frozen cookware. Never use frozen cookware.
Damage to the cook-
ware or the appliance
Cooking without contents. Never place or heat empty cookware on a hot
cooking zone.
Glass damage Melted material on the hot cooking zone or
hot pot lid on the glass.
Do not place greaseproof paper or aluminium
foil nor plastic containers or pot lids on the
hob.
Overheating Hot cookware on the control panel or on the
frame.
Never place hot cookware on these areas.
Environmental protection and saving energy3 Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible
and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less energy.
Select the cooking zone to match the size of your pan.
Centre the cookware on the hob.
Use cookware whose base diameter is the same dia-
meter as the hotplate.
Tip: Cookware manufacturers often give the upper dia-
meter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the base
diameter.
Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cook-
ing zones consume a lot of energy.
Cover saucepans with suitable lids.
Cooking without a lid consumes considerably more
energy.
Lift lids as infrequently as possible.
When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.
Using a glass lid
You can see into the pan through a glass lid without
having to lift it.
Use pots and pans with flat bases.
Uneven bases increase energy consumption.
Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food.
Large items of cookware containing little food need
more energy to heat up.
Cook with only a little water.
The more water there is in the cookware, the more
energy that is required to heat it up.
Turn down to a lower power level early on. Use a suit-
able ongoing power level.
If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,
you will waste energy.
Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam produced
during cooking.
The lower the fan speed, the less energy is con-
sumed.
If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select a
higher fan speed in good time.
The odours are distributed around the room less.
Switch the appliance off when you are not using it.
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation when cooking.
The appliance works more efficiently and with fewer
operating noises.
Clean or replace the filters at regular intervals.
The effectiveness of the filter is retained.
Suitable cookware4 Suitable cookware
Cookware that is suitable for induction cooking must
have a ferromagnetic base, i.e. it must be attracted by a
magnet. The base must also match the size of the cook-
ing zone. If cookware is not detected on a cooking
zone, place this on the cooking zone with the next smal-
lest diameter.
5
en Familiarising yourself with your appliance
4.1 Size and characteristics of the cookware
To be able correctly detect the cookware, you must take the size and the material of the cookware into consideration.
All cookware bases must be perfectly flat and smooth.
Use Cookware test to check whether the cookware is suitable.
Cookware Materials Properties
Recommended cook-
ware
Stainless steel cookware in a sandwich
design that distributes the heat well.
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be
detected easily.
Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelled
steel, cast iron or special induction cookware
made of stainless steel.
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be
detected.
Suitable The base is not fully ferromagnetic. If the ferromagnetic area is smaller than the
base of the cookware, only the area that is fer-
romagnetic heats up. As a result, the heat is
not distributed evenly.
Cookware bases that contain aluminium. These cookware bases reduce the ferromag-
netic area, which means that less power is
emitted to the cookware. This cookware may
not be sufficiently detected or may not be de-
tected at all, and therefore does not heat suffi-
ciently.
Not suitable Cookware made from normal thin steel,
glass, clay, copper or aluminium.
Notes
Do not use adapter plates between the hob and the
cookware.
Do not heat up empty cookware and do not use
cookware with a thin base, as this may become very
hot.

Operating modes6 Operating modes
You can use your appliance in air extraction mode or
circulating-air mode.
6.1 Air extraction mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters
and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.
7
en Before using for the first time
The air must not be discharged into a flue
that is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels (not
applicable to appliances that only dis-
charge the air back into the room).
If the exhaust air is to be conveyed into
a non-functioning smoke or exhaust
gas flue, you must obtain the consent
of the heating engineer responsible.
If the exhaust air is conveyed through
the external wall, a telescopic duct
should be used.
6.2 Air recirculation
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters
and an odour filter, and conveyed back into the room.
To bind odours in air recirculation mode,
you must install an odour filter. The differ-
ent options for operating the appliance in
air circulation mode can be found in our
catalogue. Alternatively, ask your dealer.
The required accessories are available
from specialist retailers, from our after-
sales service or from the online shop.
Note: When cooking intensively and for a long time,
moisture is released into the air in the room. When us-
ing the appliance in air recirculation mode, we recom-
mend ventilating the kitchen adequately, e.g. by briefly
opening a window to remove excessive moisture.
Before using for the first time7 Before using for the first time
Observe the following recommendations.
7.1 Initial cleaning
Remove any leftover packaging from the hob surface
and wipe the surface with a damp cloth. You can find a
list of recommended detergents on the official website

grease filter and the overflow container.
7.3 Cooking with induction
In comparison to conventional hobs, induction techno-
logy brings with it a series of changes and has a num-
ber of benefits such as time savings when cooking and
frying, energy savings as well as greater ease of clean-
ing and care. It also offers improved heat control as the
heat is generated directly in the cookware.
