General
 Always ensure that pan bases are dry, stable
and before using them on the hob.
 Alwa\Vmatch the size of pan to the cook
zone – do not use large pans on small zones
or vice versa.
 Alwa\Vposition pans over the centre of the
cook zone, and turn the handles to a safe posi-
tion so they cannot be knocked or grabbed.
 Always lift pans onto and off the hob, rather
than sliding them across the surface, to avoid
marks and scratches.
This appliance should only be used for normal
domestic cooking of food.
 Never use the hob for any other purpose than
cooking food.
Plastic cooking utensils can melt if they come
into contact with a warm hob. Never leave
them close to, or on top of the hob.
Safety

06_
LAMONA Appliances
 Never use the hob surface as a chopping
board or food preparation area, as this may
lead to it becoming damaged.
 Never leave aluminium foil on the hob top,
it reÁects heat back into the element which
leads to damage.
 Never heat up a sealed tin of food on the hob,
as it may explode.
 Never leave pans overhanging the edge of the
hob. The surface of the hob is smooth. If pans
are knocked they may move on the hob top.
Fire safety advice
Most kitchen Àres occur when people are distracted
or leave things unattended, so remember:
If you’re called away from the hob - by the phone or
someone at the door, either take pans off the heat,
or switch off your hob.
Don’t let yourself be distracted while cooking.
If you do have a Àre in the kitchen, don’t take any
risks - get everyone out of your home and call the
Fire Service
,IDSDQFDWFKHVÀUH  
Do not move it as it’s likely to be extremely hot.
Turn off the heat if it’s safe to do so, but never
lean over a pan to reach the controls.
Use Àre blanket or a damp tea-towel to cover
the pan.
If you have put the Àre out, leave the pan to
cool completely.
Deep-fat frying presents more
dangers in your kitchen
Never Àll a pan or other deep fat fryermore
than one-third full of oil.
Do not use a Àre extinguisher on a pan of
burning oil - the force of the extinguisher can
spread the Àre and create a Àreball.
,I\RXKDYHDQHOHFWULFDOÀUHLQWKH
NLWFKHQ   
Pull the plug out, or switch off the power at the
fuse box - this may be enough to stop the Àre
immediately
Smother the Àre with a Àre blanket, or use a
dry powder or carbon dioxide extinguisher
Remember: never use water on an electrical or
cooking oil Àre.
Avoiding damage to the appliance
The ceramic glass of the hob can be damaged by
objects falling onto it. Be especially careful with
heavy jars of food being stored in cupboards above
the hob, we recommend storing them away from the
hob area.
The edge of the glass can be damaged by being
knocked by cookware. Cookware made of cast
iron, cast aluminium or with damaged bottoms
can scratch the ceramic glass if pushed across the
surface.
Objects that melt and things that boil over can burn
onto the ceramic glass and should be removed as
soon as possible. To avoid damage to cookware and
the ceramic glass, do not allow sauce pans or frying
pans to boil dry.
Do not use the cooking zones with empty cookware
or without cookware in place.

04 - Cleaning & maintenance
Ceramic glass hobs
It is recommended that you clean and wash
the hob surface before using for the time.
Apply a thin coat of ceramic hob cleaner to the
hob to help maintain and protect it.
The ceramic hob top can be cleaned using a
clean, damp cloth or kitchen paper. Do not
use a used dishcloth or sponge as they can
leave a of detergent on the surface which
can lead to discoloration. Please ensure that
the elements are cooled fully to avoid steam
burns.
You can use a specialist ceramic cleaner to
restore the surface, but use sparingly to avoid
coating the hob top too thickly. Too much
cream cleaner will lead to discolouration. Use
a dry, clean cloth to polish the surface.
For stubborn marks, a specialist hob scraper
or cleaner can be used.
Do not use steam cleaners or high-pressure
cleaning equipment.
Regular cleaning will prevent any salts or
minerals from accumulating on your hob and
discolouring the glass.
Wipe any spillage as soon as possible.
Clean the hob top as regularly as possible, this
will prevent any build up of grease which may
be a hazard.
Foods with high sugar content (toffee, fruit
juice, jam, etc.) that boil over while cooking, or
spattered sugar stains must be immediately
removed using a scraper even if hot.
Notes:
The edge of the ceramic glass will always
appear to be a different colour than the top
surface due to the ground safety edge.
Scratches or dark stains on the ceramic
glass that cannot be removed do not affect the
function of the appliance.
Safety when Cleaning
For cleaning, the appliance must be switched
off and cooled down.
Risk of burns from residual heat.

Installation
General information
Installation should only be carried out by a qualiÀed
installer or engineer.
Please keep to the following points most carefully;
Although every care has been taken to ensure
this appliance has no burrs, or sharp edges, we
recommend that you wear protective gloves when
installing and moving this appliance. This will
prevent injury.
The minimum distances to other appliances and
units are to be observed.
Wall surfaces above the work surface and
in the immediate vicinity of the cooking
hob must be heat resistant.
Laminated surfaces and the adhesive used for
Àxing them must be heat resistant in order to avoid
any damage.
The space for air circulation, located
underneath and at the back of the hob
improves its reliability by ensuring that it
will cool down, efÀciently.
Installations should be carried out in line
with the National Regulations applicable
with this product type.
Note: Avoid installing the appliance next to doors
and under windows. This will avoid the potential
for hot cookware being knocked off the hob when
doors and windows are opened (Risk of burns).
Built-in appliances may only be used after they have
been built-into suitable built-in units and surfaces
that meet the required standards.
Positioning
Choosing your installation
We recommend that you install this appliance in a
work top which is a minimum 38mm deep.
The hob can be Àtted into a work top less than
38mm deep, but the 25mm gap between hob base
and appliance must be maintained.
Installing the hob over a unit with a drawer or
door
The base of the appliance must be protected
from damage e.g. draws may only be installed
providing a partition panel is Àtted maintaining
the 25mm gap underneath the appliance.
Installation above an oven
Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for
clearances above the oven. We recommend a
minimum 25mm gap between the bottom of
the hob and appliance
Worktop

Clearances and dimensions – requirements
No shelf or overhang of combustible material
should be closer than 650mm above the hob.
There must be a minimum clearance of 50mm
between the edges of the hob and any side
walls; this clearance must be maintained up to
420mm above the worktop.

A clearance of at least 50mm should be maintained
between the cutout and any rear or side wall.
The worktop must be of heat-resistant material or
covered with heat-resistant material.
Protecting the cut-out
The types of chipboard used for work
surfaces swell relatively quickly in contact with
humidity.
Apply a suitable sealant to the cut edge to protect it
from moisture ingress.
Self Adhesive Seal
Apply the self adhesive seal to the underside edges
of the hob glass. For best results, the seal should
be adhered along each side in turn, as close to
the edge as possible, and trimmed at each corner,
taking care to ensure a neat join.
This hob can be installed conventionally
(glass above the work top) or recessed into the work
top for a
Conventional Installation
Install the 4 spire clips shown in
Place the hob in the aperture, checking the hob

Set the front edge of the appliance parallel with the
front of the work top.
Locate and attach the securing clamps as required,
Tighten the screws so that the hob is pulled down
against the worktop, thus ensuring a good
seal.
Recessed method
Recess the work top to the appropriate depth
(Approx 5mm) and shape to the hob (add 1mm to
overall glass size.
Install the 4 spire clips shown in
Insert the hob into the recess, ensuring that the
foam seal is sitting correctly.
Locate and attach the securing clamps to the
