SAFETY GUIDELINES
Cooking with fat or oil on a
cooking plate without surveillance
can be dangerous and may cause
a fire.
Never try to extinguish a fire with
water; instead turn of f the ap-
pliance and cover the flame with a
lid or a fireproof cover.
Danger of fire: do not store objects
on the cooking appliance.
If the surface is cracked, turn off
the appliance to avoid the risk of
electric shock.
Metal objects such as knives,
forks, spoons and lids must not be
placed on the cooking surface as
they may heat up.
If the power cable is damaged, it
should be replaced by the manu-
facturer, its after-sales service de-
partment or a similarly qualified
person to avoid danger.
Avoid hard shocks from cookware:
The vitroceramic glass worktop is
very sturdy; however, it is not
unbreakable.
Do not place any hot lids flat on
your cooking hob. A suction effect
may damage the vitroceramic sur-
face. Avoid dragging cookware
across the surface, which may in
the long-term result in the degra-
dation of the decorative finish of
the vitroceramic top.
Avoid placing cookware on the
frame or cover (depending on the
model).
Avoid using cookware with rough
or bumpy bottoms: they can cap-
ture and transfer particles that
may produce stains or scratches
on your hob.
Do not store cleaning products or
flammable products in the cabinet
underneath your cooking hob.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean
your cooking hob.
Do not heat unopened canned
goods; they may burst.
Of course, this precaution applies
to all types of cooking.
Never use a sheet of aluminium for
cooking. Never place items wrap-
ped in aluminium foil or packaged
in aluminium dishes on your coo-
king hob. The aluminium will melt
and permanently damage your
cooking appliance.
These defects that do not result in
appliance malfunction or do not
make it unsuitable for use are not
covered by the warranty.
Electrical Danger
Ensure that the power cables of
any electrical appliances plugged
in close to the hob are not in
contact with the cooking zones.
If a crack appears in the glass
worktop, immediately disconnect
your appliance to avoid the risk
of electric shock.
To do this, remove the fuses or
use the circuit breaker.
Do not use your hob until you
have replaced the glass worktop .
