USING THE HOB
Gas burners
The flow of gas to the burners is regulated by the knobs shown in fig.41 which command the valves. Depending
on the chosen version, the symbols can be printed onto the knobs or the command panel. The following
regulations are obtained when the indicator points to the printed symbols:
Valve closed, no gas flow
Maximum capacity, maximum gas flow
Minimum capacity, minimum gas flow
Switching on the burners
- Burners without safety valves
To turn on burners without electric ignition, or when there is no electrical power in models with ignition, place a
flame near to the upper part of the burner, press and turn the knob anti-clockwise so that it points to the
symbol with the reference on the panel.
Turn the knob to the small flame for minimum capacity.
All working positions must be chosen between the maximum and minimum and never the maximum and
switch-off point.
To turn the burner off, turn the knob clockwise until it reaches position
“valve closed”

7
- Burners with electric ignition
Models with ignition button
To switch on one of the burners, press the ignition button and turn the knob to the maximum flow button
(
symbol). Hold the ignition button down until it lights and then adjust the flame by turning the knob until the
desired flame is obtained.
Models with ignition incorporated into the knob
These models are identified with the symbol near to the symbol (maximum flow).
To light one or more burners, press and turn the knob to maximum flow and hold it down until the bunrers are lit;
turn the knob until the desired flame is obtained.
Note:
If it is difficult to light the burner with the knob in the maximum position because of local gas flow, we
recommend repeating the operation with the knob on minimum before placing a vessel on the ring.
- Burners with safety valves
Some models have safety valves which automatically interrupts gas flow should the burner switch itself off for
any reason.
Turn the knob to the and repeat the lighting operations explained in the following paragraphs to restore
functionality.
Using the burner
According to the type of electric ignition, proceed as follows:
 For models with ignition incorporated in the knob, turn the gas valve knob to maximum flow and then press
and hold it down for about 4 to 5 seconds. Release the knob and adjust he flame by turning the knob until it
reaches the desired intensity.
 Warning:
The ignition device cannot be activated for more than 15 seconds.
If it still has not lit after this time or it turned off accidentally, wait for 1 minute before repeating the
operation.
 For models with ignition button, turn the gas valve knob to maximum flow and then press the ignition button
and hold it down for about 4 to 5 seconds. Release the knob and adjust he flame by turning the knob until it
reaches the desired intensity.
Using the ring
Hob grids were designed to make the product easy and safe to use. We recommend checking their exact
position and stability on the hob before each use. Furthermore, check that the supporting rubbers are integral
and correctly positioned.
Gird for small vessels (Fig. 39)
Only use the auxiliary burner ring (the smallest) for vessels with a small diameter to prevent them for tipping.
Special ring for WOKs (Fig. 40 optional)
Only use the triple crown ring for WOKs (concave bases). In order to avoid serious burner malfunction, we
recommend not using woks without this special ring and not to use it for flat-based pans
Choosing the burner
The symbology printed on the panel (diagram fig. 41) to the side of the knob indicated the correspondence
between the knob and the burner. Choosing the most adapt burner depends on the vessels’ diameter and
capacity (see table).
It is important that the pan’s diameter is adequate to the burner power not to compromise high yield.

8
Pan diameter
Burner Minimum diameter Maximum diameter
Auxiliary 60 mm (with
reduction) 140 mm
Semi-rapid 160 mm 200 mm
Rapid 200 mm 240 mm
Triple crown 240 mm 260 mm
Dual 240 mm 260 mm
Fish pan Maximum dimensions: 140X350 mm
Electric plates
Switching on the plate
The electric plate is switched on by turning the knob to the position desired.
Depending on whether the hob has a switch or energy regulator numbers 1 to 6 or from 1 to 11 (fig. 42) indicate
the functioning positions with increasing temperatures (see table).
A light on the control panel is lit when the electric plate is working.
Using the electric plate
Once boiling point is reached, adjust the power based on heating intensity desired, bearing in mind that the
plate will continue to emit heat for some minutes after being turned off.
When using the electric plate it is important to remember:
 It is crucial not to use it without vessels. If the plate is used with nothing on it, it can cause fires,
especially if used like this for some time.
 Do not pour liquids on the plates when they are hot.
 Only use flat-based pans with a diameter that covers the whole surface of the plate.

Plate type
The hob can have a normal or fast plate. The normal plate is completely black whereas the fast one has a red
centre. Consult section “Characteristics of the plate – Cooking Point” for technical characteristics.
The fast plate differs from the normal one basically because:
 It has higher power.
Never cook food direclty on electric plates but in proper
pans or vessels

9
 It reaches the desired temperature more rapidly.
Glass-ceramic hob.
The glass-ceramic hob has the feature of allowing rapid heat transmission vertically from the heating elements
located under the surface to the pans placed upon it.
The heat is not propagated horizontally so the glass remains “cold” up to just a few centimetres from the
cooking area.
The cooking areas are commanded by a 7-position switch or by a continuous eleven position energy regulator
as shown in figure 42.
Heating intensity in these areas is adjusted increasing from “0” (off) to “6” or “11” (max).
When the hob is operational, the signalling light is lit.
When the temperature in the cooking zone is higher than 70°C the corresponding “remaining heat” light goes
on, indicating that the area is hot.
This light remains on after the cooking zone is turned off to signal that the zone is still hot.
Remaining heat continues some time after the cooking zone is switched off.
During this time the cooking area must not be touched; most of all, pay attention to children.
The light automatically switches off when the temperature in this area lowers to under 70°C.
Advice for using the hob safely
 Before switching on, identify which knob controls the desired cooking area.
 We recommend placing the vessel on the cooking zone before switching on and to remove it after turning
off.
 Use vessels with even, flat bases (mind cast-iron vessels. Uneven bases can scratch the surface of the
glass-ceramic. Make sure that the base is clean and dry.
 Do not use the hob if the surface is broken or damaged.
 Remember that the cooking area remains hot for some time (about 30 minutes) after switch-off.
 Do not let heavy or sharp objects drop onto the glass-ceramic.
 As soon as you notice a crack on the hob, remove the power supply and call the Assistance Centre.
 Do not point intense halogen lamps onto the hob.
 Never cook food directly on the glass-ceramic hob, but in proper cooking vessels.
Types of cooking areas
“3” circuit radiating area
The heating element is made up of 3 electric resistances which can work together or separately depending on
the seven-position switch or the 0-11 energy regulator.
“Hi-light” radiating zone
The heating element is made up of a coiled band resistance which reaches working temperature very quickly.
A continuous energy regulator commands this working area.
Halogen zone
The heating element is made up of 2 halogen lamps and an electric resistance.
It instantaneously reaches the working temperature.
This is also controlled by a continuous energy regulator.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Important!
The instructions are for a qualified installer.
The appliance must be installed correctly, conforming to the laws in force.
Remove the electrical power supply before intervening on the appliance.
Installation on the top (furniture plane)
The cooking hob can be installed on fittings as long as they are heat-resistant (minimum temperature 90°C)
The size of the hole to be drilled into the furniture plane and the minimum distance between the back, side and
overhead upper walls are shown in figures 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48 and 49.
Note that:
 When the hob is installed without the oven in pair a separation panel is obligatory between the hob base
and the furniture underneath at a distance of at least 10 mm.
 When the hob/oven are a pair, interpose a divider at a minimum distance of 15mm and following the oven
supplier’s instructions maintaining aeration as specified in fig.54. In any case, electrical connection of the
two apparati must be carried out separately, both for electrical reasons and to facilitate extraction.
We recommend the use of an oven equipped with forced internal cooling.
Fixing the hob
The hob is to be fixed to the furniture as follows:
 Place the sealing gasket supplied along the outside edge of the hole drilled in the fittings following the
scheme indicated in fig. 50 so that the ends of the strips are perfectly joined without overlapping.
 Position the hob into the hole in the fittings making sure it is centered.
 Attach the hob to the fittings with the supplied mounts as shown in fig. 51.
When the sealing gasket is correctly installed, it is an absolute guarantee against infiltration of liquids.
Place of installation and discharge of combustion products.
 The appliance must be installed and operational in the best possible location and in any case
according to the laws in force.
The installer must refer to the laws in force concerning ventilation and evacuation of combustion
products.
We would remind you that the air necessary for combustion is 2m
3
/h for every kW of power (gas)
installed.
Place of installation
The place where the gas appliance is installed requires a natural air flow necessary for gas combustion (norms
UNI-CIG 7129 e 7131)
The air flow must come directly from one or more openings made on a free area of at least 100 cm
2
(A). If the
appliance does not have a safety valve, this opening should have a minimum area of at least 200 cm
2
(fig. 53).
The opening should be built so that it will not be blocked internally or externally and it is near to the floor,
preferably on the opposite side from the evacuation of combustion products.
If the required openings cannot be made, the necessary air can come from an adjacent room which is ventilated
as required as long as this room is not a bedroom, a dangerous area or under vacuum (UNI-CIG 7129).
Discharging combustion products
As appliances must discharge combustion products through ventilation hoods directly connected to the chimney
flue or to the outside (fig. 53).
If a hood cannot be installed, an electro-ventilator must be used which is applied to an external wall or to the
window in the room.
