How do I know if the surface is safe to touch?

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of this hob must be performed by a qualified electrician to comply with safety regulations, as it requires an 8.4 kW power supply. The unit dimensions are 52mm (H) x 900mm (W) x 520mm (D), and you must ensure your countertop cutout measures exactly 870mm by 490mm. For daily care, wait for the residual heat indicators to turn off before cleaning. Use a damp cloth and mild detergent to wipe the surface. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals, which can cause micro-scratches on the ceramic glass. Ensure your cookware has a flat base to maximize heat transfer and prevent damage to the hob surface.
