Using your hob in complete safety
If a crack appears in the glass surface, disconnect the appliance immediately to avoid any risk of
electric shock.
For disconnecting, remove the fuses or use the cutout switch
Do not re-use your hob until the glass surface has been changed.
Y our hob must never be used as a storage space or cutting surface for any products whatsoever.
Never allow power cables for other electrical appliances to trail across the hob.
When cooking never use aluminium foil and never place products wrapped in aluminium foil or products
deep-frozen in aluminium packs on the hob. The aluminium will melt and damage your appliance
irreparably. Do not leave empty pans on your hob in case of residual heat or if the hob is turned on by
mistake.
If your hob is placed above your oven (see "Choice of Installation") thermal protectors prevent it being
used when the oven is being pyro-cleaned.

Induced currents
Electronic circuit
Induction coil
For the attention of wearers of pacemakers or other active
implants:
The hob complies with all current standards on electromagnetic interference.
Your induction hob is therefore perfectly manufactured in keeping with legal requirements (89/336/CEE
directives). It is designed not to create interference on any other electrical apparatus being used on
condition that the apparatus in question also complies with this legislation.
Your induction hob generates short-range magnetic fields.
To avoid any interference between your induction hob and a pacemaker, the latter must be designed to
comply with relevant regulations.
In this respect, we can only guarantee our own product conformity. Please consult the pacemaker
manufacturer or your doctor concerning its conformity or any possible incompatibility. L
The principles of induction
When your induction hob is switched on and a
heating power has been selected, the electronic
circuits produce induced currents that
instantaneously heat the bottom of the pan that
transfers this heat to the food.
Thus,cooking takes place with practically no
energy loss between the induction hob and the
food.

Ensure that the unit crossbar does not block the air
passage, make a bevel if necessary.
Above a cupboard or drawer unit
Gap
When installing above a drawer the following ventilation requirements
must be observed.
MINI 4 mm
If the appliance underneath your hob produces excessive heat the following
ventilation requirements must be observed.
- Divider shelf separating the hob from the oven to be positioned at least 50mm below hob.
- Cooktop must be isolated from any oven cavity ie. under bench.
- Ventilation holes must be drilled into the side of adjoining cupboards to allow supply of fresh
Always ensure that the air vents beneath the hob are kept clear.
Your induction hob must always be adequately ventilated.
Incorrect installation may result in premature failure of the cooktop and will
void warranty!
- The connection cable must not be mechanically obstructed.
- Aerosols, spray canisters or any inflammable substances or materialsshould not be stored in

Fitting
A seal exists for preventing

worktop.
-This seal is supplied in the
sachet; stick it in place
beneath the hob.
These hobs are delivered with type H 05 VVF power cable (1.5mm²) with 3/5 conductors (including a
green/yellow earth wire), which must be connected to the power supply via a plug that complies with
publication CEI 83 or an all-pole cut-out unit with contacts that open by at least 3mm.
If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised St George Service Agent or similarly
qualified person for avoiding any possible risk of accident.
When the power is switched on, or after a long power failure, a light code appears on the control panel.
This disappears automatically after about 30 seconds or as soon as any touch control is touched on the
panel. This is normal, as the display is for use by the after-sales service when required. The user must not
take this into account under any circumstances. If the unit has a 3 phase 400 V2N connection, and is not
working correctly, check that the neutral wire is correctly connected. This precaution should also be taken
for all your other electronic apparatus.
The unit must be installed so that the mains plug is easily
accessible.

Containers
You probably already have some suitable pans.
Your induction hob is able to recognise
most types of pans.
Pan test: Place your pan on a zone, for
example at position 4; you know that your pan
is compatible if the display does not flash, but
if it does flash then you cannot use this pan for
induction cooking. You can also test it with a
magnet: if the magnet "sticks" to the base of
the pan, then you can use it for induction
cooking.
Pans compatible with induction are:
• pans made of enamel coated steel with or
without a non-stick coating.
• cast iron pans with or without enamel coated
base.
An enamelled coated base will prevent the glass
top of your hob from getting scratched.
• stainless steel pans designed for induction
cooking.
Most stainless steel pans (saucepans, stewpans,
frying pans, deep frying pans, etc.) are suitable
for induction cooking if they pass the pan test.
• aluminium pans with special base.
pans which do not have a flat base may be
suitable, however,they must not be deformed
too badly.
• Note
Glass, ceramic, aluminium pans (without a
special base) and copper pans, and some non-
magnetic stainless steel pans are incompatible
with induction cooking. You will be informed by
the flashing display.
You should choose pans with a thick flat base for
uniform cooking (heat is better distributed).
Always use the most suitable induction-cooking ring (depending on model)

Preserving and maintaining your hob
●Avoid banging pots and pans down on the hob:
The glass surface is very tough but not unbrea-
kable
●Avoid rubbing with any abrasive cleaners or with
base of pans etc. as in time this will deteriorate
the marking on the top of your ceramic hob.
●Avoid putting your pans on the surround or rim
(depending on model)
●Avoid using pans with rough or dented
bases:
They may hold and transport matter liable to stain
or scratch the hob.
●Place your pan in the middle of the heating
zone.
●Do not leave an empty pan on a heating
zone.
Any such faults, which are not the cause of
breakdowns nor make the hob impossible
to use, are not included in the guarantee
conditions.
