Safety
NOTICE
Risk of damage from improper installa-
tion of the appliance.
Insufficient air circulation may lead to
damage caused by overheating.
■
Never fit the hob over an oven with-
out ventilation!
Risk due to improper operation!
■
Hob:
–
Wipe the hob and the base of the
pots prior to use, to wipe away any
dirt which may cause scratches.
–
Do not use any aluminium foil or
plastic containers to cook on the
cooking zones as they can melt.
–
Use the hob as a work surface or
somewhere to place objects only
once the cooking zone has com-
pletely cooled off. Materials which
are sensitive to heat such as plas-
tic dishes could become damaged
if this is the case.
■
Glass ceramic hob:
–
Immediately remove sugar or
starchy food particles and residues
of plastics or aluminium foil. Other-
wise, these may cause permanent
and irreparable damage to the hob.
–
Turn the temperature controllers
for the double circle and roasting
pan cooking zones clockwise to
turn them on and counter-clock-
wise to turn them off.
Never turn past the double zone
symbol “ ” by force.
–
Do not push heavy pans across the
hob; this may scratch the glass ce-
ramic.
–
Even if small objects just make
slight contact with the hob, they
can damage the glass ceramic sur-
face. For example, do not allow salt
and pepper shakes to fall onto the
hob from cabinets above.
■
Oven
–
Do not place baking trays or alu-
minium foil directly on the bottom
of the cooking compartment. It
may cause heat to build up inside
and damage the oven’s enamel.
If you wish to place dishes direct-
ly on the bottom of the cooking
compartment, the oven tempera-
ture must not exceed 50°C. Be care-
ful when handling cookware – the
enamel can be easily scratched.
–
Turn the temperature controller
clockwise to turn the oven on and
counter-clockwise to turn it off.
Never force it past the final posi-
tion.
–
When preserving, place only so
many jars in the dripping pan at
the same time that they do not
touch. The jars can burst.
–
Cleaning: Do not use any harsh,
abrasive cleaners or sharp met-
al scrapers to clean the oven door
glass, since they can scratch the
surface, which may result in shat-
tering of the glass.
–
When cleaning do not use steel
wool, oven sprays, steam cleaners
or high-pressure cleaners! They can
damage the surface and destroy
the glass.
High-pressure cleaners can cause a
short circuit.
