Cleaning and maintenance
operations must not be
carried out by children
without supervision.
Children under 8 years of age
should not be allowed near
the appliance, unless they
are constantly supervised.
The appliance and its
accessible parts become
hot during use.
Precautions must be taken
to avoid touching the heating
elements.
Metal objects such as
knives, forks, spoons and
lids must not be placed on
the cooking surface as they
may become hot.
Your hob is equipped with
a child safety device that
locks its operation after
use or during cooking (See
"Child Safety use" section).
Your appliance complies
with applicable European
Directives and regulations.
In order to avoid interference
between your cooking hob
and a heart pacemaker,

4
the pacemaker must be
designed and programmed
in compliance with the
regulations that apply
to it. Ask the pacemaker
manufacturer or your GP.
Leaving oil or fat to cook
unattended on a hob can
be dangerous and lead
to re. NEVER attempt
to extinguish a re with
water. Instead, switch off
the appliance and cover the
ame with a lid or a re
blanket.
CAUTION: cooking must
be monitored. Short
cooking requires constant
surveillance.
Danger of re: do not store
objects in the cooking zones.
If the surface is cracked, turn
off the appliance to avoid
the risk of electric shock.
Do not use your hob until
you have replaced the glass

xed wiring.
If the power cable is
damaged, it should
be replaced by the
manufacturer, its after-sales
service department or a
similarly qualied person,
so as to avoid danger.
Ensure that the power
cables of any electrical
appliances plugged in close
to the hob are not in contact
with the cooking zones.
Never use a steam cleaner
to clean your cooking hob.
The appliance is not
designed to be switched
on using an external timer
or separate remote control
system.
After use, turn off the hob
using its control device
and do not rely on the pan

1.1 UNPACKING
Remove all the protective elements from
the hob, the sensor and the sensor
stand.
Your sensor is delivered with a battery
that you have to install (1.0). To insert
the battery, unscrew the cover on the
back of the sensor using a coin. Insert
the battery following the polarity (+
upwards), then screw the cover back on.
Check and respect the characteristics
of the appliance on the manufacturer's
nameplate (1.1.1).
Note the service and standard references
shown on this plate in the boxes below
for future reference.
1. 2 BUILDING INTO A BASE UNIT
Check that the air intakes and outlets are
free of obstruction (1.2.1). Comply with
the information concerning the tting
dimensions (in millimetres) of the base
unit destined to receive the hob.

- Fitting ush with the worktop See
diagram (1.2.3)
Check that air can ow correctly between
the front and back of your hob.
If you are installing the hob above a
drawer (1.2.6) or above a built-in oven
(1.2.7), comply with the dimensions
provided on the illustrations to ensure
a sufcient air outlet at the front. Apply
the seal all around the edge of the hob
(1.2.8).
Fit the hob into the base unit (1.2.9).
If your hob is located above your
oven, the hob’s thermal safety devices
can impede the simultaneous use of the
hob and the oven’s pyrolysis programme.
Your hob is equipped with an overheating
prevention safety system. This safety
device can trigger, for example, when
the hob is installed over an oven that is
not sufciently insulated. The code "F7"
then appears in the control zone. In such
circumstances we recommend that you
increase the hob’s ventilation by creating
an opening in the side of the cabinet
(8cm x 5cm).

2.1 CHOICE OF COOKWARE
Most cookware is compatible with
induction. Only glass, terracotta,
aluminium without a special base, copper
and some non-magnetic stainless steels
do not work with induction cooking.
We suggest that you choose
cookware with a thick, at bottom.
The heat will be distributed better and
cooking will be more uniform. Never
leave an empty pan to heat unattended.
Avoid putting cookware on the
control panel.
2.2 COOKING ZONE SELECTION
There are several cooking zones
available. Select one which is suitable,
based on the size of the pan. If the
base of the cookware is too small, the
power indicator will start to ash and the
cooking zone will not work, even if the
cookware's material is recommended
for induction. Take care not to use pans
which are smaller in diameter than the
cooking zone (see table)
When several cooking zones are used
at the same time, the hob manages the
power distribution, so as not to exceed
its total power.
2.3 SWITCHING ON/OFF
Press the On/Off touchkey . A "0"
ashes in each zone for 8 seconds.
If no pan is detected, select a zone .
If a pan is detected, the "0" ashes with
a dot.
You can then adjust the power. If you
do not select a power level, the cooking
zone will automatically turn itself off.
Switching off a zone on the hob
Press and hold the key for the zone ,
a long beep sounds and the display goes
off or an “H” appears (residual heat).
Press the On/Off key to switch the
hob off completely.
2.4 SETTING THE POWER
Press the key When switching
on, you can go directly to maximum
power (apart from boost) by pressing the
“-” key.

timer to 7h, 6h, 5h, 4h , 3h, 2h, 99 min,
etc.
At the end of cooking, the display
indicates 0 and a warning beep sounds.
To cancel this information, press any
button for the particular cooking zone
being used. Otherwise, they will switch
off after a few seconds.
To stop the timer during cooking, press
the +and -keys or return to 0 using
the - key.

beep sounds for 20 seconds.
2.6 LOCKING THE CONTROLS
Child safety
Your hob has a child safety device which
locks the controls when the hob is not in
use or during cooking (to maintain the
current settings). For safety reasons,
only the stop key and the zone selection
keys are still active and allow the hob or
a cooking zone to be switched off.
Locking

Cooking with the correctly sized lid
saves energy. If you use a glass lid, you
can control your cooking perfectly.
2.8 PERFECT SENSOR FUNCTION
There are three ways of using the
function
- View the temperature measured in the
dish directly on the hob's display.
