Safety instructions

for connection and operation

■ Fitting a mains socket, repairing and servicing the appliance are jobs that

should be left to a qualified electrician according to valid safety regulations.

For your own safety, do not allow anyone other than a qualified service

technician to install, service or repair this appliance.

■ The surfaces of the heating and cooking zones become hot during use.

Therefore be careful: Always make sure that children are kept well away!

for the hob

■ Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Food involving the use

of fats and oils, e.g. chips, may only be cooked under supervision. Never

extinguish ignited fats and oils with water! Put the lid on, turn off the

cooking zone and remove the pan.

■ If cracks, fractures or any other defects appear in your glass ceramic hob,

immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect fuse immediately and call

the Customer service.

■ If the hob cannot be switched off due to a defect in the sensor control

immediately disconnect your appliance and call the Customer service.

■ Take care when working with attachments! The connecting cable must not

contact the hot cooking zones.

■ The glass ceramic hob should not be used as a storage area.

■ Do not place combustible or ignitable objects on the cooking area which

might be dangerous if the appliance is switched on unintentionally.

■ Do not switch the cooking zone on if not using it for cooking. Never use the

appliance to heat a room! This would result in improper operating

conditions.

■ Do not put kitchen foil or plastic onto the cooking zone. Keep everything

which could melt, such as plastics, foil and in particular sugar and sugary

foods away from the hot cooking zone. Remove sugar immediately from the

hob when it is still hot with a scraper to avoid damage

■ Avoid repeated burning of food residues and boiling over.

■ Lime deposits are harmful to the cooking zone.

Before using the appliance for

the first time

Remove packaging and non-essential components. Before preparing the first

meals clean the glass ceramic hob by means of a moist cloth and a bit

washing-up liquid.

The hob is resistant against thermal shocks (coldness and heat) and also very

robust.

■ Always ensure that no hard objects are dropped onto the cooking surface.

Pointed objects falling onto your hob might break it.

■ Please observe the cleaning and servicing instructions. Be especially careful

to keep the sensor keys clean since soiling could be mistaken for finger

contact by the appliance. Never put anything (pans, tea towels etc.) onto

the sensor keys! If food boils over onto the sensor keys, we advise you to

activate the emergency switch.

■ When switching on the cooking zones a short buzzing noise may be heard

from the heating. This is design-specific and has no influence on quality

and operation.

Using the cooking zone

Please note the safety instructions!

Subsequent to initial connection and in the event of a power failure, the

controls will be tested automatically. When the automatic test is being

performed, a Minus symbol lights up on the control. This symbol extinguishes

again once the test has been completed.

Important:

No objects must be lying on top of the sensors when adjusting the sensor’s

sensitivity.

Using the Multi-Cooker cooking zone

This cooking zone transmits heat directly to the food. Cooking directly on the

glass ceramic surface enables a highly economical use of cooking fats. This

gentle and low fat cooking method preserves vital vitamins and minerals, no

matter whether food is boiled, roasted, steamed, barbecued, braised or

poached. You can, of course, also use corresponding pots and pans on the

cooking zone.

Foods that contain large amounts of sugar should not be prepared directly on

the cooking zone. High temperatures cause the sugar to melt into the glass

ceramic surface and can damage it permanently.

Any sugar that has accidentally come into contact with the cooking zone must

be immediately removed from the hot zone with a scraper.

Turning the hob on

Touch the On/Off sensor.

The cooking level indicator of the

cooking zone displays a “0”.

The appliance is in operation

(stand-by mode).

The standby mode is automatically turned off again if the cooking zone is not

activated within 10 seconds.

16 EMG 457.0 / EMGF 457.0

The cooking levels

There exist 9 cooking levels.

The cooking setting required can be activated by means of the Plus or the

Minus sensor. It is shown in the display.

The “0” setting remains visible for approx. 10 seconds after switch-off.

If you touch the Plus sensor, the

cooking zone starts at setting 9.

When doing so, the automatic

parboil function is automatically

activated, and this is indicated by

the lit up decimal point.

If the Minus sensor is touched, the

cooking zone starts to operate at

level 4 without the automatic boost

function.

Switching off the cooking zone:

press the Plus sensor and the Minus sensor simultaneously.

The “0” setting remains visible for approx. 10 seconds after switch-off.

Automatic boost function

The cooking zone has an automatic initial cooking function. The parboiling

boost is activated at full power. The parboiling boost time depends on the

subsequent cooking level which has been selected after the activation. The

cooking zone automatically changes to the selected subsequent cooking level

as soon as the set parboiling boost time has elapsed.

When the cooking zone is turned

on by using the Plus sensor, a

decimal point is displayed behind

cooking level 9.

The decimal point indicates that

the automatic parboil function is

active.

To prevent the automatic parboil

function from deactivating itself,

the required cooking level must be

set by using the Minus sensor

before the decimal point

extinguishes (within approx.

10 seconds).

The automatic boost function will

not be active if a cooking level is

set after the decimal point has

extinguished.

When the automatic parboil

function is activated, the cooking

zone will heat up to full capacity for

the duration of the time stated in

the table on the left.

The decimal point extinguishes

once this time has elapsed and the

cooking zone then continues to

heat up according to the set

cooking level.

If the cooking level is changed

during the automatic boost, the

boost time that has already

elapsed is automatically subtracted from the boost time associated with the

newly set cooking level.

Residual heat indicator

As long as the cooking zone is still

hot an “H” will appear in the

display when the cooking zone has

been switched off.

Activating the outer cooking zone circuit

As a standard rule, the small cooking zone circuit is heated.

The outer cooking zone circuit can be switched on when using larger or

several pans.

Touch the cooking zone symbol next to the

Plus/Minus sensors.

The pilot light above the cooking zone

symbol lights up to indicate that the outer

cooking zone circuit is active.

The outer cooking zone circuit can be

deactivated by touching the cooking zone

symbol a second time.

Which are the best pots and pans?

Use pots and pans with flat, smooth bottoms.

The cooking time with pans and pots with curved bottoms is longer and

consumes more energy. Pans with rough bottoms scratch the glass ceramic

cooking surface when they are moved. When using cookware made from

fireproof glass or porcelain please follow the instructions of the manufacturer.

Choose a pot or pan whose diameter fits the cooking zone.

By doing this you save energy and cooking time and avoid the overheating of

the hob.

If possible always place a lid on the pan.

You save a lot of energy by cooking in a closed pan. Food only boils over when

the temperature is too high. For the cooking zone, you can precisely set the

temperature required. With a little practice, you will readily make the correct

choice of cooking settings so that nothing boils over even when a lid is in

place.

The emergency switch

The cooking zone can be switched

off quickly by means of the ON/

OFF sensor.

Time limit function (holiday function)

The appliance has an automatic time limit function. It prevents the appliance

from being in operation for a longer period of time.

The timer of the time limit function depends on the setting of the cooking level:

The higher the setting of the cooking level the faster it switches off.

Other functions

■ If two or more sensors are pressed at the same time – e.g. when a pan is

mistakenly put onto a sensor – no function is activated. After 10 seconds

the appliance switches off automatically.

Exception

– Switching off a cooking zone by means of simultaneously pressing the

Plus and Minus sensors.

■ The appliance does not automatically switch on again after a power failure.

What to do if trouble occurs

Unplug the appliance before repair!

First check whether there has been any operating error. You can deal with

some problems that occur yourself.

Important note:

Repairs should only be carried out by a qualified and authorised trained

installer!

Even during the guarantee period repairs will not be free of charge if due to

incorrect operation or to non-adherence to our instructions given under “What

to do if trouble occurs”.

Should you need to contact Customer service or order spare parts, always

quote the information printed on the model identification plate. The rating label

is located at the bottom side of the hob. You will also find it stuck onto the

front page of the operating instructions enclosed.

Cleaning and Care

=Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner or similar

appliance!

=Never use cleansers which contain silicon, since these leave behind a

protective film, i.e. residues, which could get into the food that is cooked

next. Therefore, follow the instructions of the manufacturer in this regard.

■ Clean the hob every time after use.

■ Only use the supplied cleaning scraper to

remove food residues.

■ Never use abrasive materials such as steel

wool or abrasive cleansers!

■ Be especially careful to keep the sensors

clean since soiling could be mistaken for

finger contact by the appliance.

Never put anything (pans, tea towels etc.) onto the sensors! If food boils

over onto the sensors, we advise you to activate the emergency switch.

■ Make sure that no cleaning residuals remain on the cooking zone.

FResidues of cleaning agents can cause discolouring the next time you

switch it on. Cloths and sponges which are used for the cleaning of other

surfaces can cause discolouring.

■ We recommend cleaning the hob with half a lemon or lemon juice. This

enables slight protein residues, e.g. from meat, to be removed easily and

makes the hob gleam again.

Using a cleaning scraper

=Caution! Risk of cutting! The blade of the

cleaning scraper is very sharp!

Always hold the cleaning scraper flat to the surface

and push the grease away from you.

=Do not scratch the surface with the edge of

the scraper.

Cleaning the cooking zone

=Make sure that no cleaning residuals remain on the cooking zone.

– First of all remove all food residuals and fat splashes from the hot cooking

zone by means of the cleaning scraper.

– Clean the cooking zone with water and some detergent.

– Rewipe it with clear water and finally dry it.

FIn case there are still some soil particles left on the cooking zone after

cleaning, they can easily be removed by means of a special cleansing

agent, e.g. VSR O-FIX-C (available from the Küppersbusch Customer

service). Then wipe off the entire cooking zone with a wet and afterwards

with a dry cloth.

EMG 457.0 / EMGF 457.0 19

Installation

Please note

FThe model EMG has an installation depth of 55 mm, thus the hob cannot

be mounted above an oven.

■ Do not use a screw driver to lever the appliance out of the opening. This

will damage the frame of appliance. When removing the appliance press it

from the bottom out of the opening.

Notes for fitting

■ The worktop must be installed absolutely horizontally and the opening must

be cleanly cut.

■ The distances of the

opening to the wall for

the front, the back and

the side have to

correspond to the

dimension drawing!

A corner moulding of

solid wood may be fitted

to the worktop at the

back of the cooking zones

provided that the

minimum clearances are

maintained.

The distance to mounted

cupboards should be for

technical reasons at least

300 mm.

■ Cooker hoods or wall cupboards mounted above the hob must be installed

with a minimum distance of 650 mm to the hob.

■ No cross-bars may be in the area of the cut-out underneath. They have to

be reduced at least to the opening size of the worktop.

■ The plastic finish or the veneer of built-in kitchen furniture must have been

produced using a heat-resistant adhesive (100 °C).

■ The properly installed device

must be protected with a

cover in such a way that it is

impossible to accidentally

come into contact with the

bottom side of the hob.

This cover must only be able

to be removed with the aid of

tools and must be attached at

a minimum distance of 20 mm from the bottom of the hob, so that the

power supply cable k does not touch the bottom of the hob.

■ Minimum distance between the edge of the hob and neighbouring walls:

40 mm.

We recommend to seal the cut sections of the worktop for built-in sinks and

oven hobs with a water-repellent protection paint.

Each time the appliance is removed from the worktop, replace the seals.

=The hob must under no circumstances be sealed with silicone

sealant!

This would mean that it will be impossible to remove the hob at a later

date without damaging it.

Installing several hobs

■ When installing several hobs side by side please observe the minimum

distances between the worktop openings as shown in the drawings:

Installation of the glass ceramic hob EMG

Using clips makes it easier and quicker for you to install these units. You can

carry out the complete installation work from above.

■ Be extremely careful when installing the glass ceramic cooking surface!

Do not place or drop any sharp or pointed tools (screwdrivers, etc.) on the

glass surface!

■ The glass ceramic hob must have a level and flush bearing. Any distortion

may lead to fracture of the glass panel.

Making the worktop recess

– Make the worktop recess accurately with a good, straight saw blade or

recessing machine in accordance with the dimensions in the illustrations.

– The cut edges should then be sealed so that no moisture can penetrate.

Checking or replacing the sealing

– Check that the seal fits well and has no gaps.

When installing a hob into an uneven worktop, e.g. with a ceramic or similar

covering (tiles etc.), the seal on the hob is to be removed and the seal between

the hob and worktop made with plastic sealing materials (not included in scope

of delivery).

Such sealing compound can be purchased as KÜPPERSBUSCH spare part

No. 53 55 69.

– Clean the surfaces, apply the sealant in a continuos strip and press the hob

into the opening.

– Remove excess sealant by cutting and clean the sealed surface immediately

with water.

Drive in the clips

FWhen installing the class ceramic hob into a stone worktop, proceed as

described in the “Installing in a worktop made of stone” section.

– Align the clips carefully and drive them in with a hammer.

Worktops with more than

30 mm thickness:

With workingtops with 30 mm

thickness the clips have to be

screwed down with two screws

(not supplied)!

Insert the clips of the hob

– Position the hob on the left side

(1), align it (2) and insert the

clips (3).

Be careful not to pinch the

connecting cable!

=The hob must rest evenly in the opening. If the strain of the hob is too

great the appliance can crack when heating up.

FIf the hob is not fixed tightly in the opening it

is slightly too big. In this case screw the clips

with two screws down each (not supplied) to

raise the spring tension.

Installing in a worktop made of stone

=Never use any electrically operated or air operated wrenches and avoid

any overtightening!

– Place the hob into the

worktop cutout and

align it.

There is a risk of

breakage if the hob is

canted or subjected to

stress during

installation!

– Fasten the hob from

below with the tension

springs as shown in the

illustrations.

EMG 457.0 / EMGF 457.0 21

Installation of the glass ceramic hob EMGF

Attention when using plastic worktops !

Some producers of plastic worktops refuse to flush-installed hobs into their

plastic worktops. Please make enquiries at the producer of your worktop

concerning usability in the case of flush-installed hobs. Should a producer not

expressly agree to installation, we must point out that we will not be held liable

for any consequential damage to the worktop (which may possibly tear due to

thermal expansion).

Device and cutout dimensions

Installation on milling out the worktop.

Installation using supporting angles or strips of wood or

stone.

Making the worktop recess

The cut-out is produced in two work steps.

1. Make the opening for the base

trough.

2. Making the recess for the support

of the glass ceramic hob.

(For this recess at least one

recessing machine with guide strip

is required.)

The outside dimension of the recess should always be about 6 mm longer

than the outside dimension of the glass ceramic hob so that a seal can be

provided (see: “Gluing in the hob”).

FAlternatively, instead of carrying out the second stage, the support of the

glass ceramic hob can be cut out completely and then glued in again

with the height adjusted.

It is also possible to install strips of wood or stone as well as steel angles.

1. Make the opening for the hob.

2. Fix the strip of wood or stone or

the supporting angle onto the

worktop.

With a stone worktop the glass ceramic hob can be inserted completely flush.

The recess must therefore be about 7 mm deep.

With wooden worktops the recess must be 6 mm deep. The resultant

protrusion of the glass ceramic hob compared with the worktop of min. 1mm

serves to protect the plastic surface of the worktop, preventing a hot saucepan

from being unintentionally placed on it.

Note!

The glass-ceramic plate, with glued-in sheet metal angles, is 5.5 to 6.5 mm

thick. In order to ensure that it is exactly flush with the stone worktop, the

recess may have to be modified accordingly.

Gluing in the hob

Notes

■ In order to avoid damage to the worktop and the hob, it is necessary to glue

the system worktop/hob with a permanent seal so that it is water-proof.

■ The parts to be glued together must be dry and free from grease.

■ In order to glue the hobs you will need the resistive primer 101 and the

heat-resistant and moisture-resistant silicon adhesive Pactan 7056

produced by Heidelberger Baustofftechnik, which is also available from

the Küppersbusch spare parts service.

It is absolutely necessary to observe the remarks concerning these

two products. You will find them enclosed processing indications!

There you will also find a calculation formula for the hardening of the

silicone adhesive. Do not operate the cooking zone before the

hardening process is over as otherwise the silicone adhesive can be

damaged.

■ Only glue the hob on its outer edges!

■ With stone worktops installation is to be flush, with heat-sensitive worktops

(e.g. wood) the hob must project about 1 mm.

■ Never place the hob with the glass ceramic surface unprotected on the

worktop or the floor. Dirt (metal chips, small pieces of stone etc.) can cause

scratches in the surface of the glass ceramic hob. Please always place it

on cardboard or a wool rug.

22 EMG 457.0 / EMGF 457.0

Procedure

1. Glue the sealing tape 1 onto the corner of the supporting edge of the

worktop so that no Pactan 2 can be pressed under the hob.

=Only use the sealing tape that is supplied with the hob!

Should you use any other sealing there is no guarantee that the hob will

not sink down after installation.

2. Insert the hob without adhesive into the worktop opening and check the

height. If necessary, place the shims provided on the support edge for the

hob at equal distances to adjust the height.

3. Remove the hob again.

4. Use the water-proof primer to pre-treat the outer edges of the hob and the

side cut surfaces of the worktop where they have been glued.

Apply a thick coat of the primer with a brush on highly absorbent surfaces

(e.g. chipboard).

With less absorbent surfaces (e.g. marble or granite) it is sufficient to apply

the primer with a felt cloth.

Important! After application, the primer must be left for about 30 minutes.

5. Now insert the hob and align.

6. Finally, fill the gap between the hob and the worktop with Pactan 2.

7. Smooth the joint with a spatula and water containing a little washing-up

liquid.

=Attention! Use sealing tape! Pactan may not be pressed anywhere under

the supporting surface, otherwise it will no longer be possible to remove

the hob at a later stage. No liability will be assumed in the case of failure

to observe these instructions.

Electrical connection

■ Statutory regulations and the connection specifications issued by the local

power supply company must be strictly observed.

■ Ensure that all live connections are safely insulated when installing the oven.

■ The appliance is supplied ready to plug in. It should be connected only to

a properly protected wall socket. Installing and wiring a socket or replacing

the connection cable should only be performed by an electrician and in

observance of the relevant regulations.

■ If the socket is inaccessible after the installation, safety regulations require

that an all-pole isolator with a contact opening of at least 3 mm be used

on the installation side.

■ The wall-socket can be mounted under the working top below the hob or

in a side cupboard in the wall. Do not mount it above the grilling surface!

Connection standard mains plug into a wall socket.
