Residual heat indicator
After using a cooking zone an indicator in the form [ H ] will warn you that the surface
temperature is high. You should avoid touching this zone. There is a risk of getting burnt.
The residual heat can be used to save energy.
Ventilation
The cooling system is fully automatic. The cooling fan starts with a low speed when the calories
brought out by the electronic system reach a certain level. The ventilation starts his high speed
when the hob is intensively used. The cooling fan reduces his speed and stops automatically
when the electronic circuit is cooled enough.
STARTING-UP AND APPLIANCE MANAGEMENT
Before the first use
Clean your hob with a damp cloth, and then dry the surface thoroughly. Do not use detergent
which risks causing blue-tinted colour on the glass surface.
Induction principle
An induction coil is located under each heating zone. When it is engaged, it produces a variable
electromagnetic field which produces inductive currents in the ferromagnetic bottom plate of the
pan. The result is a heating-up of the pan located on the heating zone.
Of course the pan has to be adapted :
All ferromagnetics pans are recommended (please verify it thanks a little magnet): cast
iron and steel pans, enamelled pans, stainless-steel pans with ferromagnetic bottoms…
Are excluded : cupper, pure stainless-steel, aluminium, glass, wood, ceramic,
stoneware,…
The induction heating zone adapts automatically the size of the pan. With a too small diameter
the pans doesn’t work. This diameter is varying in function of the heating zone diameter.
If the pan is not adapted to the induction hob the display will show [ U ].

disappears when a pan is put on the heating zone.
If the pan is removed from the heating zone the operation is stopped. The display shows
[ U ]. The symbol [ U ] disappears when the pan is put back to the heating zone. The
cooking continues with the power level setted before.
Residual heat indication
After the switch off of a heating zone or the complete stop of the hob, the heating zones are still
hot and indicates [ H ] on the display.
The symbol [ H ] disapears when the heating zones may be touched without danger.

or a wall at one side. On the other side, however, no unit or divider must stand higher
than the hob.
Ensure that there is a distance of 50 mm between the hob and the wall or sides.
The cut out sizes are:
Materials which are often used to make worktops expand on contact with water. To
protect the cut out edge, apply a coat of varnish or special sealant. Particular care must
be given to applying the adhesive joint supplied with the hob to prevent any leakage into
the supporting furniture. This gasket guaranties a correct seal when used in conjunction
with smooth work top surfaces.
Not to install the hob to the top of a not ventilated oven or a dishwasher.
To guarantee under the bottom of the hob casing a space of 20 mm to ensure a good air
circulation of the electronic device.
To guarantee between the work top and the top of the drawer or oven a space of 5 mm
to allow the exit of the air flow.
If a drawer is placed under the work, avoid to put into this drawer flammable objects (for
example : sprays) or not heat-resistant objects.
The safety gap between the hob and the cooker hood placed above must respect the
