Do not flambé under a cooker hood.
The flames could set the cooker hood
on fire.
~
Do not use the hob as a resting
place for anything.
Take particular care never to place
cutlery or other metal objects on the
appliance. When the appliance is
switched on either deliberately or by
mistake, or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of metal
objects heating up, with a danger of
burning.
Depending on the material, other
objects left on the hob could also melt
or catch fire.
Damp pan lids might adhere to the
ceramic surface and be difficult to
dislodge.
Switch the cooking zones off after use.
~
Do not cover the hob, e. g. with a
hob cover, a cloth or protective foil.
This could present a fire hazard if the
appliance is switched on by mistake or
it is still warm.
~
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
containers. These melt at high
temperatures and could catch fire.
~
Do not heat up unopened tins of
food on the hob, as pressure will build
up in the tin, causing it to explode. This
could result in injury and scalding or
damage.
~
Do not use pots and pans on the
ceramic hob with bases with
pronounced edges or ridges, e.g. cast
iron pans. These could scratch or scour
the hob surface permanently.
~
Never heat an empty pan unless the
manufacturer of the pan expressly
states that you can do so. Because
induction heating works extremely
quickly the base of the pan could heat
up to the temperature at which oil or fat
self-ignites within a very short time.
~
Keep the hob clean. Grains of salt,
sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning
vegetables) can cause scratches.
~
Never place hot pans on the area
around the controls. The electronic unit
underneath could get damaged.
~
Do not drop anything on the ceramic
surface. Even a light object could
cause damage in certain
circumstances.
~
Do not allow either solid or liquid
sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the cooking zones when
they are hot. If this should occur, switch
off the hob, and carefully scrape off all
the sugar, plastic or aluminium residues
from the hob whilst they are still hot,
using a shielded scraper blade.
Take care not to burn yourself.
If residues are allowed to cool before
being removed, the ceramic surface
would be susceptible to pitting or even
cracking.
Clean the appliance once it has cooled
down.
