To optimise joints between the installed hobs, the gap between the ceramic hob
may be grouted with silicone:
1. Remove the aluminium panels from the hobs.
2. Apply a stripe of silicone to the gap between the two ceramic hob. Use only
the silicone supplied, as it is designed to tolerate the appliance’s high temper-
ature. (Fig. 1)
3. Splash a little soapy water (washing-up liquid) on the silicone stripe
4. Press the rubber block hard against the ceramic hob and pull it slowly from
back to front (Fig. 2)
5. Leave the silicone to harden until the next day.
6. Remove surplus silicone coating from the ceramic hob with the razorblade
supplied. Be careful not to damage the silicone in the gap. Run tools only
along the joint, never across it.

How to use
Ceramic hob
Never use a cracked vitroce-
ramic hob.
Water could boil over and/or
cleaning agents penetrate
into the live electrical parts.
Switch off the power to the
appliance and contact
Service.
Never place aluminium foil,
paper, plastic or similar on
the hob. A hot heating zone
could cause foil, plastic or
paper to melt or burn.
Never leave the hob unat-
tended when deep frying or
melting fat, paraffin wax or
other easily ignited sub-
stances. In case of fire, turn
off all knobs and switch off
any cooker hood.
Put out the fire with a lid,
and never use water.
Scrape any spills from the
hob straight away with a
razor. Spills of sugar and
sugar-rich foods (jam, fruit
syrup etc.), melted plastic
and aluminium foil may
damage the hob. Never
place wet saucepans on the
hob.
Make sure there is no sand, sugar or
salt on the base of the pan. Sand can
cause scratches and sugar and salt
can damage the hob.
Always dry pans before placing
them on the hob. The coloured deco-
ration on the hob may wear away or
suffer scratches depending on use.
Do not use the ceramic hob without
the aluminium strip in place.
Do not use the ceramic hob as a
work surface as this could damage
the hob.
