it. Disconnect it from the electrical power
supply.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions are for a specialized
installer and are a guide for the installation
process, regulations and maintenance
in accordance with the law and current
standards. If the built-in oven or any other
appliances that produce heat, need to be
installed directly underneath the cooking
hobs in ceramic glass, IT IS NECESSARY
THAT THE APPLIANCE (oven) AND

5
THE COOKING HOBS IN CERAMIC
GLASS ARE ADEQUATELY ISOLATED.
Failure to follow this precaution, could
cause a malfunction in the TOUCH
CONTROL system.
POSITIONING
The domestic appliance was built in order
to be encased on a work surface, the
way it is illustrated in the graph (Fig.1).
Predispose sealing material along the
whole perimeter Fig. 4 (the dimensions of
the cut Fig.1).
This operation is necessary to avoid any
liquids penetrating the worktop, as it is
not possible to guarantee that the top, the
glass and their connection are completely
at.
Lock the domestic appliance into place
with 4 supporters, keeping in mind the
width of the surface (Fig.2). If the lower
part of the appliance after installation,
is accessable via the lower part of the
furniture, it is necessary to mount a
separating panel keeping in mind the
distances indicated (Fig.3) if the appliance
is being installed underneath an oven,
this is not necessary.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
(Fig.5)
Before making the electrical connections,
check that:
-the ground wire is 2 cm longer than the
other cables;
-the system ratings meet the ratings
indicated on the identication plate xed
on the lower part of the worktop;
- the system is tted with efcient ground
wires in accordance with the laws and
current standards.
WARNING! THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
GROUNDED
The electrical safety of this appliance
can only be guaranteed when continuity
is complete between it and an effective
earthing system, which complies with
current local and national safety regulations.
It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and regularly tested
and, where there is any doubt, the electrical
wiring in the home should be inspected by
a qualied electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for the consequences
of an inadequate earthing system such as
an electric shock.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage which is the direct or indirect result
of incorrect installation or connection.
If the domestic appliance is not supplied
with a cable and/or suitable plug, use
material suitable for the absorption value
indicated on the identication plate and
the operating temperature.
If wishing to make a direct connection to
the mains, an omnipolar switch must be
installed with a minimum 3 mm opening
between the contacts and appropriate
for the load indicated on the plate and in
accordance with current standards (the
yellow/green ground conductor must not
be disconnected by a switch).
When the appliance has been installed,
the omnipolar switch must be easily
reachable.
SUITABLE COOKWARE
• Most suitable
The best pans for use on a ceramic
hob are those with a thick base which is
very slightly concave when cold. When
heated, the base attens to rest evenly
on the hob, optimising the conduction of
the heat.
• Less suitable
Pans made of glass, ceramic or
stoneware are less suitable, as they do
not conduct the heat so well.
• Not suitable
Dishes or containers made from plastic
or aluminium foil must not be used as
these melt at high temperatures.

6
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Remove any residues of food and drops
of grease from the cooking surface by
using the special scraper supplied on
request (Fig.10).
• Clean the heated area as thoroughly as
possible using suitable products, and a
cloth/paper, then rinse with water and
dry with a clean cloth.
• Using the special scraper immediately
remove any fragments of aluminium and
plastic material that have unintentionally
melted on the heated cooking area, or
residues of sugar or food with a high
sugar content. In this way, any damage
to the cooktop surface can be prevented.
• Under no circumstances should
abrasive sponges, or corrosive chemical
detergents, such as oven sprays or stain
removers, be used.
• Do not use water spray and steam to
clean the appliance.
USE
Use the touch control system in the
corresponding position according to
individual cooking needs. Keep in mind
that the higher the number, the more heat
is produced.
