Instruction for Use

BEFORE USING THE GLASS-CERAMIC HOB

To make the most of your new appliance,
please read the user instructions carefully and
keep them to hand for future consultation.
INSTALLATION
Cooktop
 The cooktop must be set into a worktop between 20 mm
and 50 mm deep.
 There must be nothing between the cooktop and the oven
(cross rails, brackets, etc.).
 The distance between the lower face of the glass ceramic
hob and the cupboard or separating panel must be at least
20 mm.
 If the cooktop is to be installed next to a column unit,
leave a distance of at least 100 mm from the edge of the
cooktop.

Make an opening in the worktop of the dimensions shown in
the Product Description Sheet supplied separately.

Apply the supplied gasket to the cooktop (unless it has
already been fitted), after having cleaned its surface.
Important
In order to prevent the electronic circuits from overheating, and
therefore from being damaged, we recommend the following:
 Do not install the cooktop near the dishwasher or washing
machine, so that the electronic circuits are not in contact
with steam or moisture, which could damage them.
If there is an oven under the hob (manufactured by us), make
sure that it is equipped with a cooling system.
If the temperature of the electronic circuits exceeds the
maximum permitted temperature, the cooktop will switch off
automatically; in this case, wait for a few minutes until the
internal temperature of the electronic circuits reaches a
tolerable level, at which point it will be possible to switch the
cooktop on again.
 Switch off the hob after use.
