Using the hob Before first use IMPORTANT: You should clean the hob surface and solid plates (see “Cleaning and maintenance” section). o You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on the heating elements during transit. o When doing this burn off process, an appropriately sized saucepan containing cold water should be placed on the zone in question.
Hob guidelines o The first few times the hob top is used, it may give off an acrid, burning smell. This smell will disappear completely with repeated use. o The hob surface is fitted with cooking areas of different diametre and power. o The positions where the heat will radiate from are clearly marked on the hob top. The saucepans must be positioned exactly on these zones for efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the same diametre as the cooking zone that they are being used on.
o DO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN OR CRACKED. YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE BAUMATIC SERVICE DEPARTMENT IMMEDIATELY. Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when the oven is cool. The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process. Cleaning the hob top Any residues that are left on the hob top surface from cleaning agents will damage it. You should remove any residues with water and a little washing up.
Using a specialist hob cleaner It is possible to purchase specialist ceramic hob cleaner/conditioner. You should follow the instructions given by the manufacturer of the specialist ceramic hob cleaner. You should ensure that it is suitable for use on your appliance. Maintaining the solid plates o If something is spilt onto the plate itself, then it can be removed using a soft brush, plastic or nylon scourer and warm water.
Positioning The adjacent furniture must be able to withstand a minimum temperature rise of 85°C above the ambient temperature of the room it is located in, during periods of use. This appliance is classified as Class 3 and therefore is to be built into a kitchen unit (depending on size) or 600 mm worktop, providing the following minimum distances are allowed: o 700 mm between the hob surface and the underside of any horizontal surface above it.
Installing the appliance o Cut a hole in the worktop that corresponds with the drawings shown above. o IMPORTANT: You must have a gap of at least 25 mm between the underneath of the appliance and any surface that is below it. o Carefully turn the hob upside down and place it on a cushioned mat. o Apply the sealing strip provided around the edge of the appliance. o The protective covering must be removed from both sides. o Do not leave a gap in the sealing agent or overlap the thickness.
o IMPORTANT: Do not use a silicon sealant to seal the appliance against the aperture. This will make it difficult to remove the hob from the aperture in future, particularly if it needs to be serviced.
