PROTECTION AGAINST DAMAGE
•
Do not use any pots or pans with unpolished or damaged bases
(e.g. made of cast iron). These can scratch the glass ceramic panels.
•
Note that grains of sand can also cause scratches.
•
Glass ceramic is insensitive to temperature shocks and very resistant, but it is not unbreakable.
Especially pointed and hard objects that fall onto the cooking surface can damage them.
•
Do not knock pots and edges against the panel.
•
Do not use the cooking zones with empty cookware.
•
Avoid placing sugar, plastic or aluminium foil on the hot cooking zones. These materials melt,
stick firmly and can therefore lead to cracks, fractures or other permanent changes in the panel
when cooling down. If they still get onto the hot cooking zones, please switch off the appliance
and remove these substances while they are still hot. As the cooking zones are hot, there is a
risk of burns.
•
Do not place any objects on the cooking zone.
•
Never place hot cookware on the control unit. The electronics under the glass could be
damaged.
•
If there is a drawer under the built-in appliance, make sure there is a minimum distance of 2 cm
between the underside of the appliance and the contents of the drawer, otherwise the ventilation
of the appliance is not guaranteed.
•
No flammable objects (e.g. aerosol cans) may be stored in this drawer. Any cutlery trays in the
drawer must be made of heat-resistant material.
•
Do not heat closed containers (e.g. tins) on the cooking zones. The containers or tins can burst
due to the resulting excess pressure, resulting in a risk of injury!
