Installing the hob
Before installing the hob
After installing the hob
The power supply cable is not accessible through cupboard doors or drawers.
There is adequate ow of fresh air from outside the cabinetry to the base of
the hob.
If the hob is installed above a drawer or cupboard space, a thermal protection
barrier is installed below the base of the hob.
The isolating switch is easily accessible by the customer.
The work surface is square and level, and no structural members interfere
with space requirements.
The work surface is made of a heat-resistant and insulated material.
If the hob is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan.
The installation will comply with all clearance requirements and applicable
standards and regulations.
A suitable isolating switch providing full disconnection from the mains power
supply is incorporated in the permanent wiring, mounted and positioned to
comply with the local wiring rules and regulations.
The isolating switch must be of an approved type and provide a 3 mm air gap
contact separation in all poles (or in all active [phase] conductors if the local
wiring rules allow for this variation of the requirements).
The isolating switch will be easily accessible to the customer with the hob
installed.
You consult local building authorities and by-laws if in doubt regarding
installation.
You use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean nishes (such as ceramic tiles) for
the wall surfaces surrounding the hob.
Make sure the appliance is well ventilated and that air inlets and outlets are not
blocked.
In order to avoid accidental touch with the overheating bottom of the hob, or
getting unexpected electric shock during working, it is necessary to put a wooden
insert, xed by screws, at a minimum distance of 25mm from the bottom of the
hob. Follow the requirements below.
WARNING
WARNING
•
•
There are ventilation holes around outside of the hob. YOU MUST ensure these
holes are not blocked by the work surface when you put the hob into position.
Be aware that the glue that joins the plastic or wooden material to the
furniture, has to resist to temperatures not below 150 ºC, to avoid the
paneling becoming unstuck.
The rear wall, adjacent and surrounding surfaces must therefore be able to
withstand a temperature of 90 ºC.

Induction heating
A
B
C
A. Induction coil
B. Induced currents
C. Electronic circuits
• The Principle of Induction Heating:
When you place your cookware on a
cooking zone and you turn it on, the
electronic circuits in yourinduction
hob produce “induced currents” in the
bottom of the cookware which instantly
raise cookware’s temperature.
• Greater speed in cookingand frying:
As the pan is heated directly andnot
in other systems becauseno heatis
lost. Most of the energy absorbedis
transformedinto heat.
Safety shutoff
If one of the cooking zones is not switched off or the power level is not adjusted
after an extended period of time, that particular cooking zone will automatically
switch itself off.
Any residual heat will be indicated with (for “hot”) in the corresponding
cooking zone display.
The cooking zones switch themselves off at the following times.
Power level Switch off
1-5 After 8 hours
6-10 After 4 hours
11-14 After 2 hours
15 After 1 hours
NOTE
If cookware is unsuitable, too small, or no cookware has been placed on the
cooking zone, will be displayed.
And after 1 minute the corresponding cooking zone will be switched off.
NOTE
Should one or more of the cooking zones switch off before the indicated time has
elapsed, see the “Troubleshooting” on page 26.
Other reasons why a cooking zone will switch itself off
All cooking zones will switch themselves off if liquid boils over on the control
panel.
The automatic shutoffwill also be activated if you place a damp cloth on the
control panel. In both of these instances, the appliance will need to be switched on
again usingthe button after the liquid or the cloth has been removed.
Before you start

English 15
Before you start
Residual heat indicator
Whenan individual cooking zone or the hob is turned off, the presence of residual
heatis shown with an (for “hot”) in the corresponding cooking zone
display. Even after the cooking zone has been switched off, the residual heat
indicator goes out only after the cooking zone has cooled.
You can use the residual heat for thawing or keeping food warm.
WARNING
As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there is a risk of burns.
WARNING
If the power supply is interrupted, the symbol will go out and information
about residual heat will no longer be available.
However, it may still be possible to burn yourself. This can be avoided by always
taking care when near thehob.
Temperature detection
If for any reason the temperatures on any of the cooking zones were to exceed the
safety levels, the cooking zone will automatically reduce to a lower power level.
the hob’s electronics has cooled down. And the cooling fan switches itself off
depending upon the temperature of the electronics.
Cookware
contacts the entire cooking zone. Check
the bottom of the cookware. Be sure to
follow all the recommendations for using
cookware.
• Use cookware made withthe correct material for induction cooking.
• Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution. This
gives better cooking results.
• Match the cookware size to the quantity of food being prepared.
• Do not let cookware boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form
of breakage, fusion, or marring that can affect the ceramic hob. (This type of
damage is not covered by your warranty).
• Do not use dirty cookware or cookware with heavy grease buildup. Always
use cookware that is easy to cleanafter cooking.
CAUTION
• The cooking zones may appear cooled down after they have been turned off.
However, the glass surface may be hot from residual heat transferred from the
cookware. The risk of burns is still present.
• Do not touch hot cookware directly with your hands. Always use oven mitts or
pot holders to protect yourhands from burns.
• Do not slide cookware across the hob surface. Doing so may permanently
damage the hob.

NOTE
• Cookware appropriate for induction cooking is labelled as suitable by the
manufacturer.
• Certain cookware can make noises when being used on induction cooking
zones.
• These noises do not indicate that the hob is malfunctioning and do not affect
its operation in any way.
• Special stainless-steel cookware may not be suitable for induction cooking.
Check if the base of the cookware is attracted by a magnet.
Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the bottom size of the cookware
up to a certain limit. However, the magnetic part of the bottom of the cookware
must have aminimum diameter depending upon the size of the cooking zone.

burner. Ifthe cookware is not sensed by the
burner, try a smaller sized burner.

Some cookware has thin magnetic material on the bottom to work with an
induction heating hob. These cookware has weak magnetism and may not work

BA
A. Area where magnet does not
stick
B. Area where magnet sticks
• Even though cookware are designed
for an induction hob, the heating
performance could be weak or
sometimes the hob may not detect the
cookware depending on the size and
strength of the magnetic area on the
bottom of the cookware.
When using large cookware with a
smaller ferromagnetic element, only
the ferromagnetic element heats up.
Consequently, heat might not be uniformly
distributed.
Suitability test
Cookware is suitable for induction cooking
if a magnet sticks to thebottom of the
cookware and the cookware is labelled as
suitable by the cookware manufacturer.
• You can recognise good cookware by their bases. The base is supposed to be
• When buying new cookware, pay special attention to the diameter of the base.
Manufacturers often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
• Do not use cookware which have damaged bases with rough edges or burrs.
Damaged cookware can scratch the ceramic hob permanently if you slide
them across the surface.
• When cold, cookware bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave).
They must not bebent outwards (convex).
• If you want to use aspecial type of cookware, for example, a pressure cooker,
