READ THE OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE USING THE
COOKTOP
WARNING -
This appliance is only intended for
residential cooking. The
manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage or injury
caused by improper use or for uses
other than those for which this
appliance is intended.
When using your appliance follow
basic safety precautions including
the following:
Installation
Be certain your appliance is
properly installed and grounded by
a qualified technician in accordance
with national and local safety
regulations. The manufacturer cannot
be held responsible for damage
caused by incorrect installation or
connection.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an
extension cord. Extension cords do not
meet the safety requirements of this
appliance.
Before servicing, disconnect the
appliance from the main power
supply.
To guarantee the electrical safety
of this appliance, continuity must
exist between the appliance and an
effective grounding system. It is
imperative that this basic safety
requirement be met. If there is any
doubt, have the electrical system of the
house checked by a qualified
electrician. The manufacturer will not be
held responsible for damages caused
by the lack, or inadequacy, of an
effective grounding system.
Only for frame/facet cooktops:
A small gap will be visible between
cooktop and countertop for the first
days after installation. The gap will
decrease as the cooktop is used. The
electrical safety of your appliance is
warrantied despite the small gap.
Use
Do not use the appliance until it
has been properly installed in the
countertop.
This appliance is equipped with an
overheating protection feature. See
"Overheating protection" for more
information.
Never use the appliance to heat a
room. Due to the high
temperatures radiated, objects left near
the appliance could catch fire.
When the cooktop is turned on for
an extended period of time, the
control panel may get warm. This is not
a malfunction.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3
Injury prevention
Children should not be left
unattended in an area where the
cooktop is in use. Never allow children
to sit or stand on any part of the
cooktop.
Caution: Do not store items of interest
to children in cabinets above the
cooktop. Children climbing on the
cooktop to reach these items could be
injured.
Use the Safety Lock to prevent
children from turning on the
cooking zones or changing the
settings. See "Safety lock" for more
information.
Keep all pots and pans out of the
reach of children. Danger of
burning or scalding. Special
cooktop/stove guards are available
from retail outlets.
Do not touch the cooktop or the
surrounding areas during or
immediately after use. The cooktop may
be hot even though it is dark in color.
Wait until the residual heat indicators
go out.
Protect your hands with insulated
gloves or potholders when using
the appliance. Use only dry, heat
resistant potholders. Moist or damp
potholders used on hot surfaces can
result in steam burns. Do not let the
potholder touch the hot heating
elements. Do not use towels or other
bulky items near the appliance.
Be aware of loose fitting or hanging
garments when operating the
cooktop, they may present a fire
hazard.
Use the proper pan size. Select
cookware with flat bottoms large
enough to cover the heating element.
Using undersized cookware will expose
a portion of the heating element and
may result in ignition of clothing or
handles becoming hot. The proper size
pot or pan will also improve efficiency.
Pot and pan handles should be
turned inward and not extend over
the countertop to reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials,
and spills.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4
Never leave a cooktop unattended
at high settings or when cooking
with oil or fat. Overheated oil could
ignite. Always heat oil slowly,
monitoring it as it heats.
Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother or use a dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher on any fire or
flame.
When frying food make sure that
the food is as dry as possible
before placing it in oil. Moisture can
cause hot oil to splatter and boil over.
At high settings, be cautious of
splattering grease or boiling over
liquids which may produce smoke.
Do not flambé under an exhaust
hood. Flames could be drawn up
into the hood by the suction and the
grease filters may ignite.
Do not heat unopened containers.
Built-up pressure may cause the
container to burst and result in injury.
Before removing pots and pans be
sure to turn off the burners.
To prevent burns and breathing
difficulty, allow the cooktop to cool
before cleaning. Some cleaners may
produce toxic fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
When wiping spills on a hot
cooktop with a wet sponge or
cloth, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Do not let flammable materials,
i.e. cooking grease, accumulate on
the appliance.
Never cover the cooktop with a
cloth. A fire may result.
Do not store items on the cooktop
when not in use. Items could melt
or catch fire from residual heat or if the
cooktop is turned on inadvertently.
Flammable materials should not be
stored on or near the appliance.
If there is a drawer directly
underneath the appliance without a
protective base between it and the
cooktop, ensure that no aerosols,
combustible liquids or other flammable
materials are kept in it. If cutlery inserts
are to be placed in the drawer they
must be made of heat-resistant
material.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
5
Damage protection
Never place hot pots or pans over
the touch controls, this may
damage the electronics.
Do not drop anything on the
ceramic surface of the cooktop.
Even lightweight objects may cause
damage.
Do not use pots or pans with
pronounced edges or ridges on
the ceramic cooktop. These could
scratch the cooktop permanently. See
"Selecting cookware" for more
information. Grains of salt and sand can
cause scratches. Make sure that the
bases of any pots and pans are clean,
free of any fat or oils and are dry.
To prevent damage to the cooktop
do not use pots and pans with thin
bases on the cooktop. Never heat an
empty pan unless the pan manufacturer
states that you can do so.
Before using glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware or other
glazed cookware verify that they can be
used on a cooking surface.
Do not allow either solid or liquid
sugar, pieces of plastic or foil to fall
on the burners when they are hot. If
these residues are allowed to cool on
the ceramic surface pitting or even
cracking may occur.
Any spills should be removed as
quickly as possible to prevent them
from burning on and becoming difficult
to remove.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean this appliance. Steam could
penetrate electrical components and
cause a short circuit.

by qualified technicians to ensure
safety. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be
dangerous. Under no circumstances
open the outer casing of the appliance.
While the appliance is under
warranty repairs should only be
performed by an authorized service
technician. Otherwise the warranty is
void.
Further safety notes

of small appliances do not come in
contact with the cooktop. The insulation
of the cable could become damaged.
Danger of electric shock!
Do not use plastic or aluminum.
They will melt at high temperatures.
Fire hazard!
If a pet gets on the cooktop a
touch control sensor could be
activated turning on a burner. Keep
pets away from the cooktop at all times
and activate the Safety Lock.
