manual abstract
Due to the high performance of the cooktop, fat and oil will heat up quickly. Never leave the cooktop unattended, fat can ignite, food can burn. Preferably use the rear cooking zones to prepare meals, that need longer to cook. Preferably use the high output burners or the wok burner for brief cooking, deep fat frying and searing of large quantities. Cooking in the wok We recommend using a round- bottom wok. You can order a high-quality wok pan as a special accessory (WP 400 001) . Only use oil that is suitable for frying at high temperatures, for example peanut oil. Fry the food quickly on a high heat while stirring continuosly. Vegetables should stay crispy. Use a heat resistant, flat ladle with a long handle to stir the food and take it out of the wok pan. Precautions for use Cookware recommendations The following tips can help you save energy and avoid damage to your cookware. Suitable cooking vessels Burner Pot base, recommended diameter Pot base, minimum diameter Standard burner 200 - 240 mm 90 mm High output burner Wok burner 240 - 280 mm 240 - 320 mm 90 mm 160 mm Pots with a diameter of less than 90 mm or more than 280 mm ( 320 mm for the Wok burner) should not be used. When using large pots, pay attention to keeping to a minimum distance of 50 mm between the cooking vessel and combustible surroundings. A minimum distance of 50 mm must be observed between the control knob / control panel and the pot or pan. The pot or pan should not touch the control panel. Use pots or pans which are the right size for each burner. Do not use small pots or pans on large burners. The flame should not touch the sides of the pot. Do not use damaged pots or pans, which do not sit evenly on the cooktoop, they may tip over. Only use pots or pans with a thick, flat base. Do not cook without using a lid and make sure the lid is properly fitted. This wastes energy. Always centre the pot or pan over the burner, otherwise it could tip over. Do not place large pots on the burners near the control knobs. These may get damaged by the high temperatures. Place the pots or pans on the pan support, never directly on the burner. Make sure that the pan supports and burner caps are correctly positioned before using the appliance. Pots or pans should be placed on the cooktop carefully. Do not strike the cooktop and do not place excessive weight on it. Do not heat a cooking vessel ( e.g. roaster, pan, grill stone) on more than one burner at the same time. The resulting heat accumulation will damage the appliance. Car e and cleani ng In this chapter you will find tips on how to maintain and clean your cooktop correctly. a Ri sk of b urn s!

Burnt in residues may be difficult to remove. Keep the air inlets at the back of the cooktop clean. Do not cover the air inlets. The burners ( burner lid, burner ring and burner head) will change their color during operation and become darker. This change in color will not influence the use- value.

Be careful that no water enters the burner base. 5 As the result of heat development, slight discoloration can appear on the stainless steel sur face. Do not attempt to scrape away such discoloration. This damages the surface. Distribute stainless steel care agents uniformly and thinly on the cooktop (not on the control panel! ) . This will ensure an even surface and will keep your cooktop in a good condition for a long period of time. 6 Make sure the burner parts are dry before assembly. Only operate the appliance with all parts dry. Damp burner parts will cause malfunctions when igniting or unstable flames. 7 When assembling the burner parts, make sure that the burner ring and burner head are placed in such a way that the catching pin fits in the corresponding groove. Make sure all burner parts are properly fitted and lie evenly flat. 8 I m p o r t a n t : Fit the middle pot support first ( be careful to center it over the burner) and then the pot supports on the side.
