To save energy
• The diameter of the base of the pan must not
extend beyond the lines printed on the glass
ceramic surface.
• Pans must not be placed outside the
perimeter of the hob or on the display.
• When buying a pan, check whether the
diameter indicated is that of the base or the
top of the pan, as the top is almost always
larger than the base.
• When preparing dishes with long cooking
times, you can save time and energy by
using a pressure cooker, which also helps to
retain vitamins contained in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker contains
enough liquid as, if there is not enough and
it overheats, this may cause damage to both
the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover pans with a
suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
saucepan leads to a waste of energy.

Advantages of induction cooking
• Energy saving thanks to the direct
transmission of energy to the pan (suitable
magnetisable cookware is required)
compared to traditional electric cooking.
• Improved safety as the energy is only
transmitted to the pan placed on the hob.
• High level of energy transmitted from the
induction cooking zone to the base of the
pan.
• Rapid heating speed.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking
surface is only heated under the base of the
pan; foods which overflow do not stick.
Power control
The hob is fitted with a power control module
that optimises/limits consumption. If the overall
set power level exceeds the maximum limit
permitted, the electronic circuit board will
automatically manage the power supplied by
the hot plates. The module tries to maintain the
maximum deliverable power levels. Levels set by
the automatic control will appear on the display.
Accessories
• Not all accessories are available on some
models.
• The accessories intended to come into
contact with food are made of materials that
comply with the provisions of current
legislation.
• Original supplied and optional accessories
can be requested to Authorised Assistance
Centres. Use only original accessories
supplied by the manufacturer.
Wok support
Useful when using a wok.
USE
Precautions
A gas leak can cause an explosion.
If you smell gas or there are faults in the gas
system:
• Immediately turn off the gas supply or close
the valve on the gas cylinder.
• Extinguish all naked flames and cigarettes.
• Do not turn on power switches or
The appliance is equipped with an
induction generator for each cooking
zone. Each generator located under the
glass ceramic cooking surface creates
an electromagnetic field which induces
a thermal current in the base of the pan.
This means the heat is no longer
transmitted from the hob to the pan but
created directly inside the pan by the
inductive current.
Priority is given to the last zone set.
The power control module does not
affect the total power consumption of
the appliance.
See General safety instructions.

42 - USE 91477A880/A
appliances and do not remove plugs from
power sockets. Do not use phones or
mobile phones inside the building.
• Open the window in order to ventilate the
room.
• Call customer assistance services or your
gas supplier.
Malfunctions
Any of the following indicate a malfunction and
you should contact a service centre.
• The burners do not ignite properly.
• It is difficult to keep the burners lit.
• The burners go out when the appliance is in
use.
• It is difficult to turn the gas cocks.
Preliminary operations
• Remove any protective film from the outside
or inside of the appliance, including any
accessories (if present).
• Remove any labels (apart from the technical
data plate).
Using the accessories
Trivet
The trivets and reduction pan supports must be
placed on the hob pan supports. Make sure
they are placed properly.
The trivet should only be used on the UR burner.
Cookware suitable for use in induction
cooking
Cookware used on the induction cooking
surface must be made of metal, with magnetic
properties and a sufficiently large base.
Suitable cookware:
• Enamelled steel cookware with thick bases.
• Cast iron cookware with an enamelled
base.
• Cookware in multilayer stainless steel, ferritic
stainless steel and aluminium with a special
base.
Unsuitable cookware:
• Copper, stainless steel, aluminium, fireproof
glass, wood, ceramic and terracotta
cookware.
Cookware diameters
To ensure that the appliance detects the
containers correctly and for best results, use the
pan sizes indicated in the following table.
Bear in mind the following:
• Pans should not extend beyond the lines
marked on the surface of the appliance.
• Do not place pans near to the edges of the
glass ceramic surface or close to the control
panel.
• If you use a griddle, it must have a maximum
size of 36x24 cm.
*Values valid when using a single
pan; if using two pans refer to
the values for the single
hob configuration.
Practical tips for using the hob
For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas
consumption, use pans with lids and of suitable
size for the burner, so that the flames do not
reach up the sides of the pan. Once the contents
come to the boil, turn down the flame far
enough to ensure that the liquid does not boil
over.

depends on the power level selected.
When the device for limiting the duration of use
is activated, the cooking zone turns off, a short
alert sounds and, if the zone is hot, the
symbol is displayed.
Protection from overheating
If the hob is used on full power for a long
period, the electronics will have trouble cooling
down if the room temperature is high.
When certain safety thresholds are reached,
one or more cooking zones are switched off. At
least, if the internal temperature is very high, the
appliance is switched off automatically and
"ER21" is displayed (see "error codes")
Correct positioning of the flame-spreader
crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure that
the flame-spreader crowns are correctly
positioned in their housings with their respective
burner caps. Make sure that the holes 1 in the
flame-spreader crowns are aligned with the
igniters 3 and thermocouples 2. Also ensure that
the flame-spreader crowns are correctly
engaged in the burner holes.
Correct positioning of the pan supports
Under the pan supports there are silicone rests
with a hole that must be centred onto the
matching fixing pins on the surface.
Make sure that the pan supports are simply
centred on their respective burners, without
forcing them to be raised or tilted. If they are,
repeat the positioning procedure.
If you find that a pan is particularly unstable,
make sure that the grids have not been
positioned incorrectly.

Support.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the hob
Cooking hob pan support grids
Remove the pan support grids and clean them in
lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent.
Make sure to remove any encrustations. Dry
them thoroughly and return them to the hob.
Flame-spreader crown and burner caps
For easier cleaning, the flame-spreader crowns
and the burner caps can be removed. Wash
them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent.
Carefully remove any encrustation, then wait
until they are perfectly dry. Replace the flame-
spreader crowns, making sure that they are
correctly positioned in their housings with their
respective burner caps.
Igniters and thermocouples
For correct operation the igniters and
thermocouples must always be perfectly clean.
Check them frequently and clean them with a
damp cloth if necessary. Remove any dry
residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.
Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they
should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them
cool first.
Ordinary daily cleaning
Always and only use specific products that do
not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe
the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft
cloth or a microfibre cloth.
The continuous contact between the
pan supports and the flame can cause
modifications to the enamel over time in
those parts exposed to heat. This is a
completely natural phenomenon which
has no effect on the operation of this
component.
See General safety instructions.
In case of stubborn dirt, clean when
cold using a damp kitchen sponge and
neutral detergent; then dry with a
microfibre cloth.

52 - INSTALLATION 91477A880/A
Weekly cleaning
Clean and maintain the hob once a week using
an ordinary glass ceramic cleaning product.
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
The silicon in these products creates a
protective, water-repellent membrane which
also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane
and can therefore be removed easily. After
cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth.
Make sure that there is no detergent left on the
cooking surface as it might undergo an
aggressive reaction when heated up and could
modify the structure of the cooking surface.
Food stains or residues
Light coloured marks from pans with aluminium
bases can be easily cleaned off with a cloth
moistened in vinegar. Remove any burnt-on
residues after cooking; then rinse with water and
dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Dirt, which
may have fallen on the hob while cleaning
lettuce or potatoes, can scratch the hob when
moving pans. Consequently, remove any dirt
from the cooking surface immediately. Changes
in colour do not affect the operation and
stability of the glass. These are not alterations to
the material of the hob but just residues which
have not been removed and have then
carbonised. Shiny surfaces can form due to the
bases of pans, especially aluminium ones,
rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of
unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to
remove using conventional cleaning products. It
may be necessary to repeat the cleaning
process several times. Use of corrosive
detergents or rubbing of pan bases can wear
away the decoration on the hob over time and
contribute to the formation of stains.
What to do if...
The hob does not work:
• Make sure that the hob is connected and
that the main switch is turned on.
• Make sure that there is no power failure.
• Make sure that the fuse has not blown. In
this case replace the fuse.
• Make sure that the circuit breaker of the
residential electrical system has not tripped.
In this case, reset the circuit breaker.
The cooking results are unsatisfactory:
• Make sure that the cooking temperature is
not too high or too low.
• Make sure that the hob is properly
ventilated and that the air inlets are
unobstructed.
• Use cookware that is certified and tested for
induction cooking.
The hob smokes:
• Let the hob cool down and clean it once
cooking is complete.
• Make sure that the food has not spilled out
of the pan and use a larger cooking vessel,
if needed.
The fuses blow or the circuit breaker of the
residential electrical system trips repeatedly.
• Call Technical Support or an electrician.
There are cracks or fissures in the hob:
• Turn off the appliance immediately,
disconnect the power supply and contact
Technical Support.
INSTALLATION
Gas connection
Connection to the gas mains can be made using
a continuous wall steel hose in compliance with
the guidelines established by the standards in
force. To use other types of gas, see the chapter
We recommend the use of cleaning
products distributed by the
manufacturer.
After cleaning, dry the appliance
thoroughly to prevent any water or
detergent from interfering with its
operation or creating unsightly marks.
The appliance must be installed by a
qualified technician and according to
the regulations in force. See General safety instructions.
