4. Installation

Connecting the Cooktop to the Electrical SystemNOTE: The cooktop must only be connected to the mains by an authorised certified installer. Wilful adaptations or modifications to the electric system are prohibited and void any warranty.

Guidelines for the InstallerThe cooktop is factory-set for two-phase alternating current power supply (400V 2N~50 Hz).

It may be adapted for one-phase current power supply (230-240V) by adequate bridging on the connection strip, in accordance with the attached wiring diagram. The wiring diagram is also located on the bottom part of the lower cover. The connection strip can be accessed once the lid on the bottom cover is removed. Please remember to match the mains connection cable to the type of connection and the rated power of the cooktop.

Fix the mains connection cable in a stay wire.

NOTE: Do not forget to connect the protective circuit to the connection marked with sign. The cooktop power supply should be protected by an appropriately selected safety switch.

Before connecting the cooktop to the power read the information provided on the rating plate and wiring diagram.

Methods of connection other than those indicated on the diagram can damage the cooktop.

When connecting to fixed wiring a means for an pole disconnection with at least 3mm contact separation must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules. This appliance should only be installed by qualified persons.

5. Operation

Before First Use• IMPORTANT: Remove any excess packaging material, including protective plastic film, protective foam, etc.

Failure to do so could damage your cooktop and void your warranty.

• Carefully clean the cooktop treating it as a glass surface.

• When used for the first time the cooktop can produce an odour so switch on the ventilation system or open the window.

• Operate the cooktop observing the safety instructions.

NOTE: When you connect your appliance to power for the first time the cooking zone display may show the letter “ ”. This is not a defect, and the letter “ ” will disappear after approximately 60 minutes.

• The ceramic cooktop is equipped with sensors operated by touching the marked areas with a finger.

• Every touch of a sensor is confirmed with a sound.

• When switching the cooktop on and off and setting the heating power always touch only one sensor. If you touch several sensors at the same time (with the exception of switching off the hotplate or the clock), the system will ignore the entered settings and, should you keep touching the sensors for a long time, will emit a fault signal.

Proper CookwareThere is specially made and tested cookware for cooking on ceramic plates available on the market. Observe instructions provided by the cookware manufacturers.

Cookware with aluminium or copper bottoms can leave metallic discolouration, which is very difficult to remove. Be particularly careful when using enamelware, as it may irreparably damage your cooktop when left on a hotplate with the contents boiled down. To achieve optimal power consumption, optimal cooking times and to avoid burning of food boiled over on the cooktop, observe the following recommendations.

Cookware BasesThe cookware should have a stable, flat base, as sharp-edged bases or bases with burrs and charred food residuals can scratch your ceramic cooktop and have abrasive impact on it!

WARNINGDo not touch the cooking zone at this time due to the risk of burns from residual heat, and do not place any objects sensitive to heat on the cooking zone.

The “ ” residual heat indicator is not displayed during a power outage. However, cooking zones may still be hot!

NOTE: If the appliance is switched on after being reconnected or when power is restored after a power outage, a short self-test will be carried out and “ ” residual heat indicator is displayed. “ ” residual heat indication will be shown on a cooking zone display for 45 to 60 minutes. The time residual heat indication is displayed is not based on temperature measurement, but on how long the cooking zone operated. After a power failure, the highest possible temperature and the longest cooling time are assumed, hence the extended time the indication is displayed.

This does not affect appliance operation.

6. Cleaning and Routine Maintenance

Daily cleaning and proper maintenance are crucial for the durability of your cooktop.

NOTE: Clean the ceramic cooktop observing the same rules as for glass. Never use abrasive or aggressive cleaning agents, scrubbing powders or scratching sponges.

Never apply a cleaning agent when the cooktop is hot. Leave the cleaning agent to dry and then wipe it off with a wet cloth. Any residuals from cleaning agents should be wiped off with a damp cloth before use.

Failure to observe the cooktop maintenance instructions will void your warranty.

Cleaning the Plate After Every Use• When cool, wipe off slight, not-burnt spillages using a damp cloth without a cleaning agent. Liquid can

cause blue discolouration to appear on the plate.

• To remove larger spillages that have stuck to the plate, when cool use an appropriate sharp scraper and wipe off the surface with a damp cloth.

Removal of Stains• Light pearly stains (aluminium residues) can be removed from a cooled plate using

an appropriate cleaning agent.

• You can remove burnt on spillages such as food containing sugar or spilt plastic or aluminium foil while the hotplate is still warm (not cold) with an appropriate scrapper.

WARNINGShould cracks or splits appear on the surface of your cooktop, immediately disconnect from the mains and call the Customer Service Centre.

CAUTIONRisk of Burns Ensure hotplate is warm, not hot.
