Safety instructions
Installation
Warning! Only a qualified
person must install this
appliance.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Follow the installation instruction supplied with
the appliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from the other
appliances and units.
• Always take care when moving the appliance as
it is heavy. Always use safety gloves and
enclosed footwear.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to prevent
moisture to cause swelling.
• Protect the bottom of the appliance from steam
and moisture.
• Do not install the appliance adjacent to a door
or under a window. This prevents hot
cookware to fall from the appliance when the
door or the window is opened.
• If the appliance is installed above drawers make
sure that the space, between the bottom of the
appliance and the upper drawer, is sufficient for
air circulation.
• The bottom of the appliance can get hot. Make
sure to install a non-combustible separation
panel under the appliance to prevent access to
the bottom.
• Make sure that the ventilation space of 2 mm,
between the worktop and the front of the
below unit, is free. The warranty does not
cover damages caused by the lack of an
adequate ventilation space.
Electrical Connection
Warning! Risk of fire and
electrical shock.
• All electrical connections should be made by a
qualified electrician.
• The appliance must be earthed.
• Before carrying out any operation make sure
that the appliance is disconnected from the
power supply.
• Make sure that the electrical information on the
rating plate agrees with the power supply. If
not, contact an electrician.
• Make sure the appliance is installed correctly.
Loose and incorrect electricity mains cable or
plug (if applicable) can make the terminal
become too hot.
• Use the correct electricity mains cable.
• Do not let the electricity mains cable tangle.

that there is access to the mains plug after the
installation.
• If the mains socket is loose, do not connect the
mains plug.
• Do not pull the mains cable to disconnect the
appliance. Always pull the mains plug.
• Use only correct isolation devices: line
protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses
removed from the holder), earth leakage trips

Hob User Manual 11

Hints and tips
Warning! Refer to Safety
chapters.
Cookware
For induction cooking zones a
strong electro-magnetic field
creates the heat in the cookware
very quickly.
Use the induction cooking zones
with correct cookware.
Cookware material
•correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel, the bottom made of multi-layer
(with correct mark from a manufacturer).
•not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass,
ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction hob
if:
• some water boils very quickly on a zone set to
the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
The bottom of the cookware must
be as thick and flat as possible.
Cookware dimensions
Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension
of the bottom of the cookware automatically to
some limit.
The cooking zone efficiency is related to the
diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a
smaller diameter than the minimum receives
only a part of the power generated by the
cooking zone.
Refer to “Technical information”
chapter.
The noises during operation
If you can hear:
• crack noise: cookware is made of different
materials (sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use the cooking zone with
high power level and the cookware is made of
different materials (sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to hob malfunction.
Examples of cooking
applications
The relation between the heat setting and the
cooking zone consumption of power is not
linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is
not proportional to the increase of the cooking
zone consumption of power. It means that the
cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses
less than a half of its power.
The data in the table is for guidance
only.
