Service Manual

INDUCTION HOB G5 –TC SLIM 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 a cross screwdriver (PZ N°2), or with a
torx screwdriver (T20 footprint) according to the type of terminal block.
- The checking of the connection and tightening has to be made before any intervention
on the hob.
- A bad tightening can be at the origin of a breakdown
If a bridging is not made correctly or if a screw is badly tightened, there can be the
following symptoms:
- If the terminals 1 or 4 are wrong connected, the hob does not switch on (no
reaction) because the touch control is not supplied.
- If the terminal 2 is 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 and in case of an after sales service: leave
the glass in place and dismount the steel case under the work plan.
Control the ventilation of the air coming in of the ventilator (minimum 20 mm
of space).
1-3 Quality of the pans :
Control if the pan is compatible with induction.
- either a „magnet“ must remain hung on the bottom of the pan
- or put a little water that must quickly boil at the power level „9”.
The functioning of an induction generates a 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 press the key [0/I] during 2 to 3 seconds.
During the first times of use, the cooking appliance will release an smell of
„new“.
1-5 Ventilation :
The ventilation starts as soon as two heating zones are switched on.
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 2 keys at least of the control
panel are covered.

In case of overheating of the heating zones, an automatic and progressive
reduction of the power takes place.
2. To determine the breakdown according to the indications of the
control panel.

2-3 Fast starting :
When the hob is connected to the electric network, the displays’segments scroll
clockwise.
After that, press the key [0/I] (On/Off), « 0 » appears.
If no handling is made within 20 seconds, everything switches off.
So, slide on the « slider » to regulate gradually from 1 to 9, or press the selected
level for a direct access before 20 seconds (First put a pan with a little water.
The bottom of the pan has to be cleaned to avoid from any scratching).
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
display:

PROCEDURE OF CONFIGURATION (E4) - TC SMART SLIDER
A. Disconnect the hob from the electrical network.
B. Connect the network and take into account that the configuration setting has to be made in a
maximum time of 2 minutes (If the time goes over, the procedure must be begun again from
stage A).
C. Do not switch on the hob by pressing key [ ].
D. Press and keep the finger on key [ ] until you hear a “Beep”.
E. Then, press on each display in the order « A-B-C-D-E-F » until you hear a “Beep”.
F. Remove your fingers from the touch control, then push again on touch [ ] during few
seconds, until blinking [ E ] symbols appears.
G. Wait until [ E ] symbols stop blinking. After few seconds, [ E ] are automatically
transformed in [ C ]. The existing setup has been cancelled
H. Take a ferromagnetical pot with a minimum diameter of 16 cm. Select a cooking zone by
pushing on the corresponding [ C ] display. Place the pot on the area to be set. Wait until
the [ C ] display becomes a [ - ]. The selected cooking zone is now configured.
I. Follow the same procedure for each cooking zone with a [ C ] display.
All the cooking zones are configured once all the displays are turned off.
Please use the same pot for the whole procedure.
Never put several pots together on the zones during the setup-process.
The hob is now ready to be used.
