INSTALLING THE DEVICE
- Place the device on a stable and level
surface.
- Never place the device on a flammable
surface (e.g. table cloth, carpet, etc.).
- Do not block the ventilation slots of the
device. This may overheat the device.
Keep a Min. distance of 5 to 10 cm to walls
or other items.
- Do not place the induction hotplate next to
devices or objects that react sensitively to
magnetic fields (e.g. radios, TVs, cassette
recorders, etc.).
- Do not place induction hotplates next to
open fires, heaters or other sources of
heat.
- Make sure that the mains connection cable
is not damaged or squashed beneath the
device.
- Make sure that the mains connection cable
does not come into contact with sharp
edges and/or hot surfaces.
COMMISSIONING THE DEVICE
- Prior to connecting the device, check
whether the voltage indicated on the type
plate corresponds to the voltage supply in
your home. A wrong connection may lead
to serious damage of the device and injury
to the user.
- The hotplate’s surface consists of
temperature-resistant ceramics. In case
of damage, even if this concern only a
small tear, disconnect the device from the
power supply immediately and contact the
customer service.
- We recommend not placing any metal
kitchen utensils, cookware or pan lids,
knives or other metal objects on the
hotplate. These may heat up when the
device is turned on.
- Do not place any magnetic objects such
as credit cards, cassettes etc. on the glass
surface while the device is in operation.
- On order to avoid overheating, do not
place any aluminium foil or metal plates on
the device.
- Do not insert any objects like wires or tools
into the ventilation slots. Attention: this
may cause electric shocks.
- Do not touch the hot surface of the ceramic
field. Please note: the induction hotplate
does not heat up itself during cooking; it is
the temperature of the cookware that heats
up the appliance’s surface!
- Do not heat up any unopened tins on
the induction hotplate. A heated tin
could explode; therefore remove the lid
beforehand under all circumstances.
- Scientific tests have proven that induction
hotplates do not pose a risk. However,
persons with a pacemaker should keep a
minimum distance of 60 cm to the device
while it is in operation.
