CONFIGURATIONPROCEDURE
What to do when thesymbol [ E4]appears :
I) The hob must be reconfiguredaccording to thefollowingprocedure :
Before you starttheprocedure :
- Makesurethatthere is no morepot on thehob.
-Useapanadaptedtoinduction.
-Disconnecttheappliance from theelectricalnetwork by removingthefuseor
turningthecircuitbreakeroff
-Reconnectthetabletotheelectricalnetwork.
- It is necessary to startthe procedurewithin 2 minutes after theconnection of the
hob to theelectricalnetwork.
- Do notpressthe [ 0/I ] key.
II)Cancellation of theexistingconfiguration :
1) Pressthekey B andholddown.
2) Withyourother hand,presskey A during2s.
Releasedthekey A.
A “bip” soundandthehalf slider lights
Adouble"bip" means an error occurred.
If so, startagain from item 1).
3) Withyourfingerslide on the slider from right
to left (3 o’clock to 9 o’clock), alwayswithyourfinger on thekey B.
A “bip” sound if manipulation is succeeded, if isn’t so, startagain from item1).
4) Removeyourfingers from the touch control,thenpressagain on key A duringfew
seconds,untilblinking [ E ] symbolsappear.
5) Wait until [ E ] symbolsstopblinking.
6) Afterfewseconds, [ E ] areautomaticallytransformed in [ C ]. The existingsetuphas
beencancelled.
III)How to reconfigurethe hob ?
1) Takeaferromagneticpotwith a minimum diameter of 16 cm
2) Select a cookingzone by pushing on thecorresponding [ C ] display
3) Placethepot on thearea to be set
4) Waituntilthe [ C ] displaybecomes a [ - ]. Theselectedcookingzone is now
configured.
5) Follow thesameprocedureforeachcookingzonewitha[C]display.
6) Allthecookingzonesareconfiguredonce allthe displaysareturnedoff.
Pleaseusethesamepotforthewholeprocedure.

ADVICE &HELP /AFTER SALES INDUCTION
TC MULTI LITE SLIDER
1. To detect the wrong breakdowns :
1-1 Connection to the electric network:
Control the tightening of the screws of the connection box
Control the section of the cables used (see manual of use)
Control if the earth wire (green/yellow) is connected
1+2 =phase
4 = neutral
3 = no connection
earth =obligatory
alimentation cable: advised with fasten terminal wires (see photograph)
tightening of the screws: either with across screwdriver (PZ N°2 highly
advised), or with apunt screwdriver.
The checking of the connection and tightening has to be made before any
intervention on the hob.
Abad tightening can be at the origin of abreakdown
If abridging is not made correctly or if ascrew is badly tightened, there can be
the following symptoms:
-If the terminals 1or 4are wrong connected, the hob does not switchon
(no reaction) because the touch control is not supplied.
-If the terminal 2is wrong connected, “E5”will appear on the right hand
side displays on the right side.

1-2 Installation:
Control the installation of the gasket under the glass.
If the glass is glued with silicone leave the glass in place and dismount the
steel case under the work plan.
Control the ventilation of the air coming in of the ventilators (minimum 2 cm of
space).
1-3 Quality of the pans:
Control if the pan is compatible with the heating by induction.
To check by using a„magnet“ that must remain hung on the bottom of the
pan or by putting alittle water in the bottom of the pan and while making this
water heat in position „9“water must boil quickly.
The functioning of an induction generates certain sonority. This one depends
on the pans used.
Use only pans with flat bottoms. Others risk damaging the hob.
BAD GOOD
1-4 Use:
To start the hob it is necessary to keep the key [0/I ]pressed during 2to 3
seconds.
During the first times of use, the cooking appliance will release asmell of
„new“.
1-5 Ventilation:
The ventilation starts as soon as the heating zones reach acertain level of
temperature.
This ventilation goes on cooling the heating zones even after the stop of
cooking.
1-6 Securities:
In case of overflow, the hob stops as soon as 2keys at least of the control
panel are covered with the liquid of overflow.
In case of overheating of the heating zones, an automatic and progressive
reduction of the power takes place.

EError message electronic failure
Hresidual heat heating zone is hot
PBooster The booster is activated.
Llocking the hob is protected
UKeep warm of 70°C Maintain automatically of 70°C.
ll Pause The hob is in pause.
2-1 Fast starting :
With the connection of the hob to the electric network, four or five “8” are
indicated and then get off.
After that, press the key [0/I] (On/Off), « 0 » appears with ablinking point (3, 4 or
5according to the hob).
If no handling is made within 20 seconds, everything switches off.
Therefore, before the 20 seconds, press with your finger on the display of the
cooking zone to use (while having put before apan with water, a pan which
external bottom hasbeen wiped in order to avoid from any scratching of the
glass).
Then, either slip on the SLIDER to regulate gradually from 1to P, or press the
selectedlevel for adirect access.
If no pan is put on the selected cooking zone,or if the pan is taken away during
the cooking, or if the pan is not adapted to induction, you will have the following

2-2 Locking « L »
To lock the hob:
Press the key [0/I] (On/Off)
Pressthe key [stop/go]and keep your finger on the key and press 3times on the
key [timer]. Each time you press on the key [timer], one segment more is
displayed to show a«L».
These operations have to be done within maximum 10 seconds, or else it will be
necessary to start again by stopping the hob (key [0/I] (On/Off)).
Once these 3operations done,the “L” appear on the hob (3, 4 or 5according to
the model) and after this they get off; the hobis so locked.
That corresponds to amain switch,nobody can start the hob anymore (children
security)and the hob can be cleaned without fear to put it in function.
To unlock the hob:
Press the key [0/I] (On/Off)
Press the key [stop/go]and keep your finger on the key and press 3times on the
key [timer]. Each time you press on the key [timer], one segment from the «L»
disappear.
These operations have to be done within maximum 10 seconds, or else it will be
necessary to start again by stopping the hob (key [0/I] (On/Off)).
Once these operations done, the “L” disappear and the hob can be used again.
Caution:
To cancel the security realized on the hob, it is imperative:
either to wait for 20 seconds so that the control lights switches off,
either to press the key [0/I] (On/Off) to stop the hob.
If ashort circuit occurs after having been put in the security does not cancel the
locking.
The electronic keeps indeed this security in memory and at the moment of the
re-connexion, the “L” will appear while pressing the key [0/I] (On/Off)
