GENERAL

Carefully read the contents of this leaflet since it

provides important instructions regarding safety of

installation, use and maintenance. Keep the leaet

for possible future consultation. All the operations

relating to installation/replacement (electrical connec-

tions) must be carried out by specialised personnel in

conformity with the regulations in force.

SAFETY WARNINGS

It is recommended to use at-bottom pans with a

diameter equal to or slightly larger than that of the

heated area. Do not use pans with a rough base to pre-

vent scratching the heat surface of the cooktop (Fig.2).

Before connecting the appliance to the electricity

supply:

- Check that the voltage and power values listed on

the data plate (positioned on the lower part of the

appliance) are compatible with the electricity supply

and socket. If you have any doubts, please consult a

qualied electrician for assistance.

Warning !

-Do not leave the heating

elements on with empty pots

andpansorwithoutreceptacles.

The process of cooking food

requires supervision; even

cookingjustforashortperiod of

time still requires your constant

attention

-When you have finished

cooking, switch off the relevant

heatingelementwiththecontrol

indicated below.

-Pay attention to easy to reach

device parts as they over-heat

during use.MAKE SURETO KEEP

CHILDREN AWAY FROMTHESE.

-Avoid spilling liquids like, for

example, oil or other types of

grease, as they can cause fires.

-Do not attempt to put fires out

usingwater.Turnoffthehoband

cover the flame with a lid or fire-

proof blanket.

-Do not leave objects on the

cooking surface, it may cause

fires.

-If cable is damaged, have

qualified personnel or After-

Sales Service replace it.

-Steam cleaners must not be

used.

-If the surface is cracked, switch

off the appliance to prevent

electric shock.

-This appliance can be used by

- Using unsuitable protective

devices may cause accidents.

Please make sure to use only

protective devices which are

approved by the manufacturer

or supplied with the device.

· The principle of induction:

The system of cooking by induction is based on the

physical phenomenon of magnetic induction. The

fundamental feature of this system is direct transfer

of heat energy from the generator to the pan without

intermediate means (dierent from traditional cooker

tops).

Advantages:

If you compare your electric cooker tops, with the

induction cooker top, the result will be:

-Safer: low temperature on the glass surface.

-Quicker: brief heating times.

-More precise: the top reacts immediately to your

commands.

-More ecient: 90% of the energy absorbed is tran-

sformed into heat.

Furthermore, once the pan has been removed from

the hob, heat transmission is stopped immediately,

thereby preventing the needless dispersion of heat.

The system also automatically recognises the various

ENGLISH GB

- 26 -

diameters of all pans and uses a suitable power level

for each size. This means that we are able to use pans

of various sizes, provided that the pan diameter is

no more than 10% larger - or 40% smaller - than the

printed detail marked on the hob (Fig.2B).

Caution: if you are using a pan with a diameter which

is more than 40% smaller than the printing marked

on the glass, the cooking zone may not be activated.

Cooking vessels (Fig.2A):

Cooking by induction uses magnetism to generate

heat. The vessels must therefore contain iron.

Check if the vessel material is magnetic using a

magnet.

Important:

To prevent permanent damage to the cooker surface,

do not use:

-Pans with bases that are not perfectly at.

-Metal pans with enamelled bases.

-Do not use pans with rough bases as they may

scratch the hob’s surface.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

These instructions address specialised installers and

serve as a guide for installation, adjustment and

maintenance in conformity with the laws and regula-

tions in force.

- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly quali-

ed persons in order to avoid a hazard

·Positioning (Fig.1)

The domestic appliance is designed to be built into

a worktop as illustrated in the specic gure. Apply

sealant around the entire perimeter (cut-out dimen-

sions Fig.1A).

Fix the domestic appliance on the worktop by means

of the 4 brackets provided, taking the thickness of

the worktop into account (Fig.1A). If the lower part

of the appliance, after installation, is accessible via

the lower part of the cabinet then it is necessary to

mount a separator panel respecting the distances

indicated (Fig.1C). After installation ensure that the

power cable remains perpendicular to the plane and

does not come into contact with adjacent metal parts.

Before connecting the model to power supply:

Check the data plate (located at the bottom of the de-

vice) to check that the voltage and power correspond

to that of the network and the connection socket is

suitable. If in doubt, consult a qualied electrician.

Electrical connections (Fig.4):

Before making the electrical connections, check that:

-The ground cable is 2 cm longer than the other cables;

-The system ratings meet the ratings indicated on

the identification plate fixed on the lower part of the

worktop;

-The system is fitted with efficient earthing compliant

to the laws and regulations in force.

If the appliance is not supplied with a cable, use a

cable of type: “H05V2V2-F”, that has a cross-section

suitable for the total power consumption of the device.

The cable should never reach a temperature which

is 50°C above the temperature of the room in which

it is installed. The appliance is to be permanently

connected to the electrical mains, therefore an

omnipolar switch must be inserted, enabling

complete disconnection under the conditions of

overvoltage category III; it must be fitted between

the appliance and the power supply, sized accord-

ing to the load and in compliance with the stand-

ards in force (the yellow/green earth wire must not

be interrupted by the switch). The omnipolar switch

must be easy to reach once the installation process

has been completed.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

·Maintenance

Remove any residues of food and drops of grease from

the cooking surface using the special scraper supplied

on request (Fig.3) Clean the heated area as thoroughly

as possible using SIDOL, STAHLFIX or similar products

and a cloth/paper, then rinse with water and dry with

a clean cloth. Using the special scraper (optional) im-

mediately remove any fragments of aluminium and

plastic material that have unintentionally melted on

the heated cooking area or residues of sugar or food

with a high sugar content (Fig.3). In this way, any

damage to the cooktop surface is prevented. Under

no circumstances use abrasive sponges or irritating

chemical detergents such as oven sprays or stain

removers.

Note: depending on the version that you have, the

unit could perform an auto setup by emitting sound

signals and activating all LEDs and Displays for a

several seconds upon initial connection to the power

supply. Do not operate any buttons or activate any

functions during this operation.

Warning:

To prevent damage being inicted on the electronic

circuits, the hob is tted with an overheating safety

system.In situations where the appliance is used at

high power levels for a prolonged period of time, the

hob may switcho one or more of the activated zones

temporarily, until the temperatures return to the set

levels.On the display corresponding to the cooking

zone which has been temporarily switched o, the

power level will be shown in alternation with a E/2.

cooking zone and the “-” key until you reach the

desired level.

-All operations will be combined with a“BEEP”acoustic

signal.

-The Booster might not turn on if the cooking zone

was activated previously with high temperature levels.

• Integrated power control (Fig.6):

Each phase (this is divided into two zones in a

horizontal line: F1 e F2) is capable of using a maximum

power of 3,700W.

If this is exceeded for example by activating the

Booster, the software automatically lowers power

of the previously selected zone until it reaches the

allowed power level.

The display of the zone with limited power will begin

to ash for about 3 seconds. During this time it is

possible to modify the power level.
