PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
Connect all of the electrical components to the unit
and motor to make sure both the unit and the motor
are functioning properly.
(NOTE: The motor plug is fitted with a dummy
plug - with the exception of SEM1 motor - to
protect the connection from dust. Ensure the
red dummy plug is removed and replaced
with the two pin motor plug from the power
transformer box. Failure to do so will result in
only two speeds operating).
Before installing the product, check that all
components are not damaged. If any components
are damaged, contact the retailer and do not go
ahead with the installation.
Before installing the downdraft, remove the safety
spacer highlighted in the photograph
(Fig. 1, Page 38).
Furthermore, carefully read all the instructions as
follows:
• Utilise an air extraction duct that has a maximum
length of not more than 7 metres.
• Limit the number of curves in the duct because
each curve reduces the efficiency of the
extraction equal to 1 linear metre (E.g., if two 90°
curves are utilised, the length of the duct must
not exceed 5 metres in length).
• Avoid drastic changes of direction.
• Utilise a duct with a 200mm diameter along its
whole length.
• Utilise a duct that is manufactured from material
approved to the norm. The supplying company
will not respond to problems of flow capacity or
noise if there is a lack of respect of the previously
mentioned instructions and the guarantee will be
annulled.
1. Position the support bracket of the downdraft in
the rear part of the realised aperture (refer to Fig.

2. The bracket must be positioned approximately
two/three millimetres from the upper surface of
the worktop, as shown in Fig.3.
3. Fix the support bracket of the downdraft to the
worktop by utilising the screws supplied in the
case of wood worktops. For worktops realised in
materials different to wood, utilise the appropriate
screws.
4. Utilise the upper and lower holes positioned in the
support bracket of the downdraft in accordance
with the thickness of the worktop into which the
product is installed.
5. Fix the two worktop reinforcement telescopic
structures to the lower sides of the support
bracket of the downdraft, as shown in Fig. 4.
6. After fixing the reinforcement structures, adjust
their telescopic travel so as to reach the base
underneath (Fig. 5). Fix the structure to the base
underneath utilising the screws supplied.
7. Check that the worktop is perfectly level then
block the travel of the structures utilising the four
self-threading screws, positioned as in Fig. 6.
8. Insert the downdraft into the installed support
bracket (refer to Fig. 7). The fixtures positioned
on the downdraft must coincide perfectly with the

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
APPROPRIATE COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION
HOTPLATES
HOTPLATE FUNCTION PRINCIPAL
• Induction hob is fitted with four cooking
zones.
• Hob surface is completely flat and
smooth,without edges to accumulate dirt.
• The cooking hob is equipped with a highly
functional induction cooking zone. The
heat is formed directly in the bottom of the
cooking plate. This way, the required extent
of energy is considerably smaller compared
to traditional heaters, which operate on
radiation principals.
• Glass ceramic hotplate is not heated directly,
but only by return heat transmitted by the
dish. This heat figures as “remaining heat”
after the hotplate is turned off. The induction
hotplate generates heat from the induction
coil, installed underneath the ceramic glass
surface. The coil stabilises the magnetic field.
• Induction hotplate will function perfectly only
if appropriate cookware is used.
• Cookware should be in the middle of the
hotplate during cooking.
• The appropriate cookware is the one which
enables induction, for example steel, enamel
or steel alloy cookware. Pots made from steel
alloy with copper or aluminium bottom, or
glass pots are inappropriate.
• When buying cookware, check if it bears
the label “allows induction”.

In case sugar or other heavily sweetened
substance is spilled on the hotplate, wipe is
immediately and remove the sugar residues
with a plstic scraper although the cooking
zone is still hot, otherwise the hotplate may be
dameged. Avoid cleaning the cookplate while
the cooking zones are still hot, as you may
damage the hob.

MAGNET TEST POWER REGULATION
Use small magnet to test if the dish bottom is
magnetic. Only dishes where magnet sticks to
the bottom are suitable for induction cooking.
Dish recognition
One of great advantages of the induction
hotplate is pot recognition. Even if there are no
dishes upon the hotplate, or the dish diameter
is smaller than the diameter of the relevant
hotplate, there are no thermal energy losses.
When the hotplate is on, the power indicator
displays letter “U”. If you place the dish over
that hotplate within the following 10 minutes,
the hotplate recognizes the dish and turns on
to the preset power value.
At the moment you remove the dish from
the hotplate, power is suspended. If you
place smaller dish upon the hotplate and it
is recognized, the hotplate will only use the
amount of energy required to heat the dish
according to its size.
Hotplate may be damaged if:
• It is turned on and left empty, or an empty
dish is placed on it;
• You use clay dishes which leave scratches
on the ceramic glass surface;
• You fail to wipe the dish bottom dry prior
placing it on the induction cooktop; heat
induction is obstructed and the hotplate
may be damaged;
• You fail to use the appropriate dishes that
can be magnetized: steel dishes, enamel
or steel alloy dishes; induction hotplate will
not function otherwise.
Hotplate may be damaged if:
• Heating power of the hotplates may be set
at nine different levels.
The following chart indicates illustrative use
of each power setting.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• When buying cookware be careful in
selecting size: pot diameter usually refers
to the top edge of the dish, which is often
larger than the dish bottom.
Steam-pressure pots (economic pots),
which use pressure in tightly sealed interior,
are especially economic, and save both
time and energy. Shorter cooking time
leaves more vitamins in food.
• Always leave enough water in steam-
pressure pots, otherwise it may result in
