cause burns.
Do not let body, clothing or any item other than suitable cookware contact
with the ceramic glass until the surface is cool.

Never use your appliance as a work or storage surface.
Never leave any objects or utensils on the appliance.
Do not place or leave any magnetisable objects (eg credit cards, memory cards) or electronic
devices (eg computers, MP3 players) near the appliance, as they may be affected by its
electromagnetic field.
We recommend using plastic or wooden kitchen utensils for cooking with your induction cooktop.
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
After use, always turn off the cooking zones and the cooktop as described in this manual (ie by
using the touch controls). Do not rely on the pan detection feature to turn off the cooking zones
when you remove the pans.
Do not allow children to play with the appliance or sit, stand, or climb on it.
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above the appliance. Children climbing on
the cooktop could be seriously injured.
Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use.
Children or persons with a disability which limits their ability to use the appliance should have a
responsible and competent person to instruct them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied
that they can use the appliance without danger to themselves or their surroundings.
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the
manual. All other servicing should be done by a qualified technician.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean your cooktop.
Do not place or drop heavy objects on your cooktop.
Do not stand on your cooktop.
Do not use pans with jagged edges or drag pans across the ceramic glass surface as this can
scratch the glass.

can scratch the ceramic glass.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must only be replaced by a qualified technician.
Do not operate your cooktop by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.

the benchtop is square and level, and no structural members interfere with space requirements
the benchtop is made of a heat-resistant material
the cooktop will not be installed directly above a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine or
clothes dryer, as the humidity may damage the cooktop electronics
if the cooktop is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan
the installation will comply with all clearance requirements and applicable standards and
regulations
a suitable isolating switch providing full disconnection from the mains power supply is
incorporated in the permanent wiring, mounted and positioned to comply with the local wiring
rules and regulations. The isolating switch must be of an approved type and provide a 3 mm air
gap contact separation in all poles (or in all active [phase] conductors if the local wiring rules
allow for this variation of the requirements)
the isolating switch will be easily accessible to the customer with the cooktop installed
you consult local building authorities and by-laws if in doubt regarding installation
you use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean finishes (such as ceramic tiles) for the wall surfaces
surrounding the cooktop.
When you have installed the cooktop, make sure that
the power supply cable is not accessible through cupboard doors or drawers
there is adequate flow of fresh air from outside the cabinetry to the base of the cooktop
if the cooktop is installed above a drawer or cupboard space, a thermal protection barrier is
installed below the base of the cooktop
the isolating switch is easily accessible by the customer
you complete the ‘Final checklist’ at the end of these installation instructions.
The thermal protection barrier must be:
removable
heat-resistant
made from low thermal
conductivity material
at least 25 mm below the
plastic housing of the
cooktop chassis
25 mm min.
