Pan Detection
The above “U” symbol appears when a zone has been activated but no pan has been placed on the
cook zone. If the “U” symbol does not disappear when a pan is placed on the zone it indicates that the
pan is not suitable for induction cooking.
When a pan is taken off a zone, the hob automatically reduces the power, and only switches back on
when you replace the pan.
Please be aware that the pans can make a noise during cooking. This is caused by vibration due
to the passage of energy from the hob to the pan.
Residual heat indicators
This feature not only warns you against hot surfaces but also indicates that there is residual heat which
can be used as temporary warm zone.
Note: The cook zone itself does not heat up, but the ceramic glass does get hot because of the hot pan
conducting heat back onto the hob glass.

Auto stand by
The hob will automatically switch off if left (with pan) on for an extended period of time, see maximum
running times below.

Before you start please read the instructions. Planning your installation will save you time and effort.
FAILURE TO INSTALL APPLIANCES CORRECTLY IS DANGEROUS AND COULD LEAD TO
PROSECUTION.
Please take care when handling - we recommend the use of protective gloves during installation.
Installation should only be carried out by a competent electrician / qualied technician. We recommend
that the appliance is connected by a competent person who is a member of a “Competent Person
Scheme” who will comply with the required local regulations. In regions where applicable, please retain
your certicate of compliance
Our policy is one of constant development and improvement, therefore we cannot guarantee the strict
accuracy of all of our illustrations and specications. Changes may have been made subsequent to
publishing.
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 recom-
mend that you wear protective gloves when installing and moving this appliance. This will prevent injury.
The hob should not be tted above a washing machine, a fridge or a freezer.
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, must be heat resistant in order to avoid any dam-
age.
The space for air circulation, located underneath and at the back of the hob improves its reliability by
ensuring that it will cool down, efciently.
Installations should be carried out in line with the National Regulations applicable for this product type.
Make sure that the air inlets through the ventilator grids underneath the hob are never blocked. An air
outlet of 5mm underneath work surface is required.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installation above an oven
Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for clearances above the oven. We recommend a minimum
20mm gap between the bottom of the hob and appliance, should the work surface be less than 38mm
deep
Installation above a unit with a drawer or door
If necessary, remove the front crosspiece of the unit. The base of the appliance must be protected from
damage e.g. drawers may only be installed providing a partition panel is tted to the required dimen-
sions underneath the appliance. Suitable protection to prevent obstruction of the air inlet to the fans
must be provided.

In the case of a pyrolytic oven
If installing the hob above a pyrolytic oven, additional provision for air circulation / ventilation may be
required. Due to the excessive temperatures attained during pyrolysis, using the hob at the same time
may cause the thermal safety device within the hob to operate.

Fitting into work top
Sufcient length of cable should be allowed so the hob can be removed for servicing, but make sure it
is routed away from the underside of the hob & does not get trapped during installation.
Important: Ensure that you route all electrical cables and exible tubing well clear of any adjacent heat
source - eg; oven / grill.
Protecting the cut-out;
The types of chipboard used for work surfaces swell relatively quickly in contact with humidity.
Apply a special varnish or adhesive to the cut edge to protect it from steam or condensation which may
form under the work surface under the hob.
This hob can be installed conventionally (glass above the work top) or recessed into the work top for a
ush t.
