Induction Hob
• NEVER heat up a securely closed container.
Through heat expansion it could quickly cause
an explosion.
Safety instructions
• NEVER heat up an empty container. This would
very quickly overheat - presenting both the risk
of fire and of serious damage to the hob.
• Do not place any metallic objects on the induc-
tion area, such as kitchen utensils or pieces of
cutlery. They can become very hot in the energy
area.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals
(including children) with restricted physical, physio-
logical or intellectual abilities or deficiences in
experience and/or knowledge unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their safety
or receive from this person instruction in how the
appliance is to be used.
To avoid potentially fatal electric
shocks:
Ensure that the appliance, the power cable
and the power plug are NEVER submersed
in water or other fluids.
• Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet
or damp during operation. Lay the cable so that
it cannot be trapped or otherwise damaged.
• If the power cable or the power plug are damaged,
have them replaced by Customer Services before
continuing to use the device.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
• Always remove the power plug from the wall
socket after use. Simply switching the appliance
off is not sufficien, as the appliance is under power
for as long as the plug is connected to the socket.
• Protect the cooker from damages: Do not burden
it irregularly and do not allow objects to fall onto
it. The appliance may not be taken into use if eit-
her the hob or the housing is damaged. Immedi-
ately remove the plug from the power socket
and arrange for the appliance to be repaired.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced at once by qualified technicians
or our Customer Service Department.
• Be careful when heating small volumes of coo-
king oils – do not select a high power level.
Should you do so, the oil could begin to burn
and start a conflagration!
• Do not use an external timing switch or a separate
remote control system to operate the appliance.
• NEVER operate the appliance on a metallic table
or other metallic surface. This could heat up, and
thus lead to either the outbreak of a fire or the ap-
pliance being damaged beyond repair.
Attention! Hot surfaces!
This symbol warns you not to touch the
To avoid the risks of fire or injury:
• Do not touch the area at which a hot cooking
vessel has just been standing. Directly after
cooking, this area could be very hot.
• Overheated foodstuffs could begin to burn!
Never let the appliance be in use without super-
vision.
• Additionally, NEVER position the appliance be-
low inflammable objects, especially not below
curtains or drapes.
cooking area directly after use. Risk of Burns!
To avoid risks and dangers caused
by electromagnetic fields:
• Maintain a minimum distance of 1 meter to
appliances that are sensitive to electromagnetic
fields (e.g. displays, clocks, magnetic storage
media, electronic devices etc.).

• Medical-technical devices such as heart pace-
makers, hearing aids and other appliances may
possibly need to be kept at a greater distance.
If in doubt, ask the manufacturer of the device!

Intended use
Protection class:
II
This appliance is ...
• intended for the heating up or keeping warm of
foods in domestic households and ONLY for use
in dry accommodation.
• NOT intended for the warming or heating up
of other materials, for industrial or commercial
applications or for use outdoors.
Manner of operation
Whilst standard hobs become warm themselves, in
an induction cooker the heat is created in the base
of the cookware. The hob 1 itself is not heated up -
at the most, it becomes warmed up by the hot cook-
ware standing on it (reverse heating).
For this, an energy field generates a heat which can
only be created in magnetically conductible materials,
for example, pans made of iron. In other materials,
for example porcelain, glass or ceramic, the energy
field cannot create any heating effect.

• Suitable are pots and pans with a base made of
steel or cast iron. These are recognisable either
through the markings on the pan or if a magnet
clings to the base of the pan.

• Thin pan bottoms are better suited for induction
cookers than thick sandwich bottoms. The very
short reaction times to setting adjustments (short
pre-warm time; fast metered roasting) are not
possible with thick pan bases.

Only use cookware that is suitable for the size of

For cooling, the appliance draws in air through the
openings on the underside.
• may not exceed 26 cm, so that the pan does not
overhang,
• and may not be less than 16 cm, so that the ener-
gy field can actually work.
• The base of the pan may not be uneven, rather,
it must sit flat and squarely.
• Therefore, place it only on firm and smooth sur-
faces, not on textiles or fluffy surfaces, such as
tablecloths.
• Do not place it adjacent to curtains, drapes or
other textiles that, due to the airflow, could press
themselves against the appliance.
Only then can the induction cooker function perfectly.
Utilisation
Unpacking
When you have unpacked and positioned the ap-
pliance as described above, it is now ready for use.
Before taking the appliance into use check to ensure
that ...

Note:
e) Elapsed time (Timer)
In standby mode, that is, after switching off or befo-
re switching on, indicated in the display 2 are eit-
her "- L" or "- H -".
You can pre-select a time period from 1...180 minutes,
after which the hob 1 should switch itself off.
• First start the warming-up, as described above.
• Press the button Timer 7 to start the stopwatch
function. Serving as a check, a "0" appears in
the display 2 and the control lamp Timer 4
glows.
These heat indicators mean:
"- L -" = "Low" - the hob temperature is < 50°C
or
"- H -" = "High" - the hob temperature is > 50°C
• With the button ▼ ▲ 5 you can now set the
desired elapse time period from 1...180 minutes ...
- forwards in 5 minute steps,
For safety reasons, the cookware recognition feature
switches the appliance off automatically when you ...
• remove the cooking vessel from the hob for longer
than 15 seconds, or do not place one there.
• Although the energy field is immediately switched
off with short cookware removals, the selected
function remains active. Around every 3 seconds
a signal tone issues a reminder that in roughly
15 seconds the appliance will switch itself off
automatically.
- backwards in 1 minute steps.
• When you have set the desired time period and
do not press any other buttons, the countdown
starts automatically and the programmed power
level appears in the display 2.
Cleaning and Care
The hob 1 also switches itself off after 120 minutes
of continuous use should you not have entered in
any new settings in the meantime.
Apart from regular cleaning after use, no maintenance
work of any kind is required on the appliance.
CAUTION!
d) Heating up
Before cleaning the appliance:
After you have switched the appliance on ...
• First remove the plug 0 from the power socket.
Risk of electric shock! Allow the appliance to
cool down. Risk of Burns!
• Press the button Power level 6, to adust the power
level in steps (L1 - L10). The higher the power level,
the higher the temperature generated in the coo-
king vessel. Using the button ▼ ▲ 5 you can
adjust this from L1 (lowest power level) through
to L10 (highest power level). The control lamp
Power Stage 3 glows during the adjustment.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES may the ap-
pliance or parts of it be submersed in liquids!
This could result in you receiving a fatal electric
shock and the appliance could be irreparably
damaged.
Note:
• Never open the housing of the appliance. You
could receive a potentially fatal electric shock.
• Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners. These
could damage the hob 1 and the areas made
of synthetic materials.
Warming up starts as soon as one of these buttons
is activated. The setting can be adjusted at any time
during the current usage.
• Clean all outer surfaces and the power cable 0
only with a lightly moistened cloth. In all cases,
dry the appliance well.
- 5 -
• Burnt-on soiling on the hob 1 can be removed
with a scraper suitable for glass hobs, available
in most household equipment shops.
• Should soiling be visible in the area of the venti-
lation slots, you can attempt to remove this from
outside with a vacuum cleaner.
