Safety instructions
Connecting up and functioning
Küppersbusch cookers are made according to relevant safety regulati-
ons. Only Küpperbusch cookers may be connected to Küpperbusch hobs.
The cookers may only be connected up to the mains, maintained and
repaired by a qualified electrician according to valid safety regulations.
Work carried out incorrectly places your safety at risk.
Do not put the appliance into operation unless it has been built in!
The surfaces of the oven, oven door and hob are very hot when in
operation. Always keep children away!
Connection leads of electrical appliances may not be placed on the hot
hob or get jammed in the hot oven door.
WARNING:
The application must be earthed!
Cooking surface
Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Food involving the
use of fats and oils, e.g. chipped potatoes, may only be cooked under
supervision. Never extinguish ignited fats and oils with water! Put the lid
on, turn off the hotplate and remove the pan from the hot hob.
If cracks, fractures or any other defects appear in your glass ceramic
cooking area, do not use your cooker. Disconnect the fuse.
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic on the cooking area.
Oven
When carrying out repairs and replacing oven light bulbs, the cooker
must be disconnected from the mains (switch off the fuse).
Never store any objects in your oven which could cause a hazard if the
oven is unintentionally switched on.
Take special care when working in the hot oven. Use a dish cloth, oven
gloves or similar.
The oven door must close well. In the event of damage to the door sea-
ling, hinges, sealing surfaces or to the glass pane, do not use your coo-
ker until it has been repaired and checked by a qualified and authorised
trained installer.
Caution! When opening and closing the oven door, do not reach into the
hinge. Risk of injury!
Always close the oven door completely when preparing food in the oven.
Keep at least 5 cm away from the grill and top heat
Before first use
Remove excess materials and packaging. Before preparing food for the first
time, the cooker must be cleaned.
Clean the glass ceramic cooking area or hob, baking trays, drip pan etc.
with a damp cloth and a little detergent.
Heating the hob Consecutively heat up the hotplates for
(not for glass ceramic hobs) 5 minutes each at the highest setting.
Air the kitchen well because of the “new
smell”.
Heating the oven Close the oven door.
Heat up the oven 250 °C for 60 minutes.
Air the kitchen well at the same time.
Using the hotplates
Please note the safety instructions!
The cooking zones
Each hotplate has its own control. Nine cooking settings are marked on the hot-
plate controls, but you can also choose finer intermediate settings. As far as pos-
sible, start cooking at the highest setting and continue at a smaller setting.
Setting suitable for
0 switching off
1-3 warming, keeping warm, swelling, defrosting
4-5 steaming, stewing, boiling
6-8 frying, deep-fat frying
9 heating large quantities
Which are the best pots and pans?
You can save time and power by choosing the best pans.
Use pots and pans with flat, smooth bottoms.
Choose a pot or pan whose diameter fits the hotplate.
Features of the glass-ceramic hob
Frying zone or dual circuit cooking zone
As a standard rule, the smaller cooking zone diameter is heated.
Change the control to the outer cooking zone circuit for frying pans or lar-
ger saucepans.
Turn the hotplate control to the right as
far as it will go.
Then set it to the required cooking set-
ting.
To return to the smaller zone: reset the
hotplate control to “0”.
Hotplate heating indicators (1)
The indicators are on for as long as the hotplates are still very hot – even after
the hotplates have been switched off.
Caution! The indicator can be defect (defect light bulb). You will now not be
warned when the hotplates are hot. Have the light bulb replaced immediately.
