Zone Advantages of induction cooking The hob is equipped with an induction generator for each cooking zone.
Description 2.2 Symbols 2.3 Available accessories OFF setting Scraper The cooking zone is OFF. Increase/decrease setting Useful for cleaning the hob. Turn the knob clockwise or anti-clockwise to increase or decrease the power for the cooking zone whose value is shown on the displays. The accessories intended to come into contact with food are made of materials that comply with the provisions of current legislation.
Use 3.1 Instructions High temperature Danger of burns • Protect your hands wearing heat-proof gloves during use. • Do not touch or clean the hob surface during operation or when the residual heat indicator lights are still on. • Do not put empty saucepans or frying pans on switched on cooking zones. • Do not allow children younger than 8 years old to get near the appliance during its operation. • Activate the key lock when you have children or pets which could reach the hob.
Use 3.2 Preliminary operations In order to remove any moisture that could have accumulated during the manufacturing process and for the electronic circuits and control keypad to work properly: 1. Remove the protective films from the external surfaces of the appliance and accessories. 2. Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate). 3. Place a pan full of water on each of the front cooking zones and switch them on to the maximum power setting for at least 30 minutes. 4.
Use Limiting the cooking duration The hob has an automatic device which limits the duration of use. If the cooking zone settings are not changed, the maximum duration of operation of each zone depends on the power level selected. When the device for limiting the duration of use is activated, the cooking zone turns off, a short alert sounds and, if the zone is hot, the symbol appears on the display.
Use Advice on energy-saving Power levels • The diameter of the base of the pan must correspond to the diameter of the cooking zone. The power in the cooking zone can be adjusted to various levels. The table shows the levels suitable for various types of cooking. Power level Suitable for: 0 • When buying a pan, check whether the diameter indicated is that of the base or the top of the pan, as the top is almost always larger than the base.
Use Each cooking zone is equipped with a heating accelerator that allows the maximum power to be delivered for a time that is proportional to the selected power. 1. Turn the knob anti-clockwise to the position and release it. The display shows the symbol . 2. Select the required heating power (1...8) within 3 seconds. The selected power and symbol will flash alternately on the display. The power level can be increased at any moment. The “maximum power” period will automatically be modified.
Use Power management The hob is fitted with a power management module that optimises/limits consumption. If the overall set power levels surpass the maximum limits permitted, the electronic circuit board manages automatically the power supplied by the hot plates. The module tries to maintain the maximum deliverable power levels. The levels set by the automatic management will appear on the display.
Cleaning and maintenance 4.1 Instructions Improper use Risk of damage to surfaces • Do not use steam jets for cleaning the appliance. • Do not spill sugar or sweet mixtures on the hob during cooking. • Do not place materials or substances that could melt (plastic or aluminium foil). • Keep always clean and do not place any object on the sensor keys. • Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on steel parts or parts with metallic finishes on the surface (e.g.
Cleaning and maintenance Changes in colour do not affect the operation and stability of the glass. These are not alterations to the material of the hob but just residues which have not been removed and have then carbonised. Shiny surfaces can form due to the bases of pans, especially aluminium ones, rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to remove using conventional cleaning products. It may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process several times.
Installation 5 Installation • 220-240 V 1N~ 5.1 Electrical connection EN Power voltage Danger of electrocution Use a 3 x 4 mm² three-core cable. • Have the electrical connection performed by authorised technical personnel. • Use personal protective equipment. • The appliance must be connected to earth in compliance with electrical system safety standards. • Disconnect the main power supply. • Do not pull the cable to remove the plug. • Use cables withstanding a temperature of at least 90°C.
Installation Fixed connection Fit the power line with an omnipolar circuit breaker in compliance with installation regulations. The circuit breaker should be located near the appliance and in an easily reachable position. Connection with plug and socket Make sure that the plug and socket are of the same type. Avoid using adapters and shunts as these could cause overheating and a risk of burns. Run the power cable in the rear part of the unit.
Installation The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work and must therefore be carried out by a competent tradesman. Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood as long as they are heat resistant (>90°C). 5.4 Mounting Over built-in oven The distance between the hob and the kitchen furniture or other installed appliances must be enough to ensure sufficient ventilation and air discharge.
Installation Over empty kitchen unit or drawers Hob seal If there are other pieces of furniture (lateral walls, drawers, etc.), dishwashers or fridges under the hob, a double-layer wooden base must be installed at least 30 mm from the bottom of the hob to avoid any accidental contact. It must only be possible to remove the double-layer base using suitable equipment.
