•All accessible parts of the hob will become hot while in operation. Always keep
children away from it.
• The hob should be given a quick clean after each use, to avoid the accumulation of
spillagesand grease. Ifspillages are not removed, theywill harden, andcould causethe
productionof smoke andunpleasant smells.

INSTALLATION
Installing a domestic appliance can be a complicated operation which, if not carried
out correctly, can seriously affect consumer safety.
It is for this reason that the task should be undertaken by a professionally
qualified person who will carry it out in accordance with the technical regulations in
force.
In the event that this advice is ignored and the installation is carried out by an
unqualified person, HOOVER declines all responsibility for any technical failure
of the product whether or not it results in damage to goods or injury to individuals.
INSTALLATION: "BUILDING-IN"
Both the unit into which the hob will be fitted and any adjacent kitchen furniture must be
made of heat resistant material and fixed with heat resistant adhesive.
If, when installing the hob, the lower part of the casing is adjacent to an area normally
accessible when handling or cleaning, fit a heatproof partition 1 cm below the base of
the casing, with a 10x10 cm opening in the rear right-hand corner, to avoid any risk of
burningordamage.
There should also be a 5 cm gap between the appliance and all adjacent vertical
surfaces.
Afoam adhesive seal is supplied with the hob. Stick this sealunder the edge of the body
as near as possible to the outer edge of the hob. Press round the edges of the hob,
so that the seal flattens out and ensures an air tight seal.

The body of the hob is fitted with 4 location holes to take the fixing brackets that secure
the intended to fix the hob in the unit. Place the 4 fixing bars in such a way that the hob
surface is placed perfectly in the support unit.

INSTALLATION: "ELECTRICAL CONNECTION"
The mains electricity supply connected to the appliance should comply with the norms
in force in the country of installation.
HOOVER declines all responsibility for any damage that may be caused by unsuitable
orunreasonableuse.
•Anyqueries regarding the powersupplycord should bereferred to After Sales
Serviceoraqualifiedtechnician.
Warning :
• Always check before any electrical operation, the supply tension shown on the
electricity meter, the adjustment of the circuit-breaker, the continuity of the
connection to earth to the installation and that the fuse is suitable.
• HOOVER cannot be held responsible for any accidents resulting from the use of an
appliancewhichisnot connectedtoearth,orwithafaultyearthconnectioncontinuity.
The hob is equipped with a supply cord type H05RR-F - aera 3G2,5 mm². This power
cord enables you the connection exclusively to single phase 220-240 V~ or two phases
220-240V2~.

THE HOT PLATE
THESTANDARDELECTRICALHOTPLATE
This is a cast-iron hot plate, controlled by a 7 positions commutator.
Eachpositioncorrespondstoapermanentandprogressivetempe-
rature according to the marks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
RAPID SELF-PROTECTING ELECTRIC HOT PLATE (with a red dot in the centre)
This a cast-iron hot plate, controlled by a 7 positions commutator.
As with the previous hot plate, each position corresponds to a
permanent and progressive temperature according to the marks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
An internal thermostat cuts off of the power supply if there is any abnormal heating.
(If, for example, a hot pate is working without a pan on it).
BEFOREUSINGTHEELECTRICHOTPLATE:
• Before using the electric hot plate for the first time, let it heat up for a few minutes,
without a pan, at maximum temperature to let the protective coating harden.
HOW TO USE:
• For best results, it is advisable to start on the maximum heat and then turn back
toan intermediate temperature taking intoaccount thetypeand volume of the food.
• The power-on indicator light comes on to show that the hot plate is working.
• To stop it, turn back the knob until position " ".

Cooking with the electric hot plate
To gest the best results from your appliance it is important to observe the following:
• Use thick, flat-bottomed cooking vessels, a completely flat bottom prevents the
overheating of some points which cause food to stick. Thick metal allows for good heat
distribution.
• Make sure that the bottoms of pans are dry: this will prevent things from sticking to the
hot plate because of moisture.
• Use pans with a diameter large enough to completely cover the hot plate, otherwise
someoftheenergy will be wasted andifthereare any spillages thehotplatewillquickly
become stained and difficult to maintain (rust, etc).
•Neverleaveahotplateswitchedonwithoutapanonit:itcouldbecomedeformed,which
wouldreduce its efficiency.
•Whencookingwithfatoroil,donotremovethepanfromthehob. Veryhotfatsandoils
can quickly catch fire.
•Whenthehotplateishot,avoidanycontactwithmaterialsmadeofplasticoraluminium
foil.
Warning: during the hot plate is operating, it becomes hot, keep children away
from it.
