Y
ou could burn yourself on the hot hob. Protect your hands with
heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot pots and
pans. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat to trans‐
fer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blen‐
der
, near the hob, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance
cannot come into contact with the hot hob. The insulation on the ca‐
ble could become damaged.
Gr
ains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can
cause scratches if they get under pan bases. Make sure that the ce‐
ramic surface is clean before placing pans on it.
Even a light object can cause damage in certain circumstances.
Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface.
Placin
g hot pans on the sensors and indicators could damage to
the electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the sensors or
indicators.
Do not all
ow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or alumini‐
um foil to get onto the cooking zones when they are hot, as they can
damage the ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should oc‐
cur, switch off the appliance and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or
aluminium residues whilst still hot, using a shielded scraper blade.
Wear oven gloves. Allow the cooking zones to cool down and clean
them with a suitable ceramic hob cleaning agent.
P
ans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do
not leave the hob unattended whilst it is being used.
Only use pots and pans with smooth bases. Rough bases will
scr
atch the ceramic glass.
Lift pans int
o position on the hob. Sliding them into place can
cause scuffs and scratches.
