During usage
■ Remember the very short heating up time at the higher settings. Always stay
close to the hob if you have a cooking zone on a high setting.
■ Never let an empty pan stand on a hotplate that is switched on. While the
hotplate is protected and will switch itself off, the pan will be extremely hot.
The pan could be damaged.
■ When the induction hob is in use keep objects that can be affected by
magnetic fields (credit cards, bank cards, diskettes, watches and similar items)
away from its vicinity. We advise those who have pacemakers to consult a
heart specialist first.
■ Do not use the appliance below 5 °C.

Use of other equipment near the hob
■ Make sure that cables of electrical machines (such as a mixer) do not end up
on hot cooking zones.

Glass-ceramic cooking surface
■ This cooking appliance is designed for domestic use. Do not use the

breakage may occur if a sharp object falls on it.
