Things to watch out for 2. 1 Important tips for induction 2. 1. 1 Induction cooking zones and cooking ware Your hob is equipped with induction cooking zones which are characterised by high performance when it comes to quick heating and energy saving. Objects made out of metal, such as knifes, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the cooking zones, because they might become hot or melt. After using, the cooking zone has to be switched off through the sensor keys, and not only through the pan recognition. Never prepare food in aluminium foil and plastic containers on the hot cooking zone. Do not place combustible, volatile or heat deformable objects directly underneath the hob. Cover the dish in order to extinguish the fire and switch off the cooking hob. When using other electrical appliances near the hob, make sure that their leads do not come into contact with hot cooking zones. Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner or similar appliance! Warnung! Care must be taken when using double boilers (bain maries), for the simmering water may dry up unnoticed, resulting in damage to the pot and to the hob, in the event of which no liability will be assumed. 26 224244 3. Cleaning and maintenance Always clean the glass surface after it has cooled down. Even the slightest amount of dirt will burn into the surface the next time you switch it on. Steel wool, sponges and powdered cleaning agents must not be used since they may scratch the surface. Do not use oven sprays as these are aggressive and damage the surface. Light amounts of dirt Use a damp cloth or a warm rinse to clean light amounts of dirt from the surface. [. . . ] In addition, make sure that no liquids can penetrate between the edge of the hob and the worktop or between the hob and the wall and come into contact with any electrical appliances. Use sealing sections, strips, agents, etc. 28 224244 4. 3 Electrical connections (connected loads) (Connected loads and model designation: see front of the operating instructions) This appliance may only be connected to the electricity supply by an approved electrician who must ensure that installation complies with statutory safety regulations, norms and instructions valid in your country.
