Burner Mounting
It is essential to ensure that all the burner parts
and pan supports are properly assembled on
the appliance to work correctly. A blue and
stable flame shows the proper burner
operation.
Do not remove the burner caps during the use.
Place all the elements of the burner like in the
below picture:
Safety system
Each burner is equipped with a safety system
(thermocouple) and an ignition system. The
ignition starts automatically once a power level
is selected on the cooking zone. If the flame
accidentally goes out the ignition will start
again. These two elements must be kept clean.
Please note:
- The ignition device should not be operated for more than 10 seconds.
- If a burner does not ignite or turns off accidentally, switch the burner off “0”position,
and wait for one minute before attempting to reignite the burner.

Ventilation
The cooling system is fully automatic. The cooling fan starts with a low speed when the
heat brought out by the electronic system reach a certain level. The ventilation starts at high
speed when the hob is intensively used. The cooling fan reduces it's speed and stops
automatically when the electronic circuit is cooled enough.
STARTING-UP AND APPLIANCE MANAGEMENT
Before the first use
Clean your hob with a damp cloth, and then dry the surface thoroughly. Do not use detergent
which risks causing blue-tinted colour on the glass surface.
Induction principle
An induction coil is located under each heating zone. When it is engaged, it produces a variable
electromagnetic field which produces inductive currents in the ferromagnetic bottom plate of the
pan. The result is a heating-up of the pan located on the heating zone.
Of course the pan has to be adapted:
•All ferromagnetic pans are recommended (please verify it with a little magnet): cast iron
and steel pans, enameled pans, stainless-steel pans with ferromagnetic bottoms…
•Are excluded: copper, pure stainless-steel, aluminium, glass, wood, ceramic, stoneware,…
The induction heating zone adapts automatically to the size of the pan. With a too small
diameter the pan doesn’t work. This diameter varies depending on the size of the zone
diameter.
If the pan is not adapted to the induction hob the display will show [ U ].
Power selection zone “SLIDER” and timer setting zone
Select the cooking zone. The display corresponding to the selected zone will be highlighted.
While the zone is activated (for a few seconds), you can adjust the power, either by sliding your
finger on the slider, or by direct access.
To adjust the power of another cooking zone, wait until the previous zone is no longer
activated (the highlighted display becomes normal).

Pan detection
The pan detection ensures a perfect safety. The induction doesn’t work:
If there is no pan on the heating zone or if this pan is not adapted to the induction. In this
case it is impossible to increase the power and the display shows [ U ]. This symbol
disappears when a pan is put on the heating zone.
If the pan is removed from the heating zone the operation is stopped. The display shows
[ U ]. The symbol [ U ] disappears when the pan is put back to the heating zone. The
cooking continues with the power level set before.
After use, switch the heat element off: don’t let the pan detection [ U] active.
Residual heat indication
After switching off a heating zone, the heating zones are still hot and will indicate [ H ] on the
display.
The symbol [ H ] disappears when the heating zones have cooled and may be touched without
danger.
When the residual heat indicators are on, don’t touch the heating zones and don’t put any heat
sensitive object on them. There are risks of burn and fire.
Booster function (only induction)
The Booster function [ P ] grants a boost of power to the selected heating zone.

How to stick the gasket:
The gasket supplied with the hob avoids all infiltration of liquids in the cabinet.
His installation has to be done carefully, in conformity of the following drawing.
Fitting - installing:
The cut out sizes are:
•Ensure that there is a distance of 50 mm between the hob and the wall or sides.
•The hobs are classified as “Y” class for heat protection. Ideally the hob should be installed
with plenty of space on either side. There may be a wall at the rear and tall units or a wall
at one side. On the other side, however, no unit or divider must stand higher than
the hob.
•The piece of furniture or the support in which the hob has to be fit, as well as the edges of
furniture, the laminate coatings and the glue used to fix them, must be able to resist
temperatures of up to 100 °C.
•Not to install the hob to the top of a not ventilated oven or a dishwasher.
•Guarantee a space of 50 mm under the bottom of the hob casing to ensure a good air
circulation of the electronic device.
•If a drawer is placed under the hob, avoid putting into this drawer flammable objects
(for example: sprays) or nonheat-resistant objects.
•Materials often used to make worktops expand on contact with water. To protect the cut
out edge, apply a coat of varnish or special sealant. Particular care must be given to
applying the adhesive joint supplied with the hob to prevent any leakage into the
supporting furniture. This gasket guaranties a correct seal when used in conjunction with
smooth work top surfaces.
•The distance between the hob and the cooker hood
placed above must respect the indications of the hood
manufacturer. In the absence of instructions respect
a minimum distance of 760 mm.
•The supply cord should be checked once installed, to
ensure there is no mechanical constraint from for example,
the drawer below.
•WARNING: Use only hob guards designed by the
manufacturer of the cooking appliance or indicated by the
