Frequently Asked Questions - FLHK 800 ESK SILVERLINE

Why does the hob not start?

Check if the hob is properly connected to the power supply, the fuse is intact, the control panel is not locked (symbol L), and the touch keys are clean and dry.

What does the error symbol 'E' mean?

The 'E' symbol indicates an electronic failure. Contact the After-sales Service.

Why do one or all cooking zones turn off during use?

This may be due to the safety system engaging: the zone was left on too long, the pan is empty and overheated, or a touch key is covered. Let the hob cool and remove any objects on the controls.

How do I use the automatic cooking function?

Select a zone, set it to full power, then press the [-] key to activate automatic cooking. The display shows a blinking 'A' and the power level. The zone will run at full power then reduce to the selected level.

How do I lock the control panel?

Press the On/Off key to start. Then simultaneously press the [∧] and [∼] keys on the left side. The display shows 'L' on all zones. To unlock, repeat the same steps within 5 seconds of switching on.

What does the residual heat indicator 'H' mean?

The 'H' symbol shows that the cooking zone is still hot. Do not touch it or place heat-sensitive objects on it to prevent burns or fire. It disappears when safe to touch.

Can I use pans with a diameter smaller than the cooking zone?

For best efficiency, use pans that cover the cooking zone as much as possible. The zone may not detect very small pans, and energy efficiency decreases.

How do I clean the ceramic glass hob?

Ensure the hob is off and cool. Wipe with a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or steam cleaners.

What should I do if sugar or jam spills on the hot hob?

Immediately remove the spillage from the hot zone (be careful not to burn yourself) using a scraper if necessary. The sugar can damage the glass if allowed to cool.

What are the minimum clearances for installation?

The hob must be installed with at least 50 mm space from walls or sides. The safety distance to a cooker hood above should be at least 760 mm unless specified otherwise by the hood manufacturer. Ensure 20 mm gap underneath for ventilation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The installation must be performed by a qualified electrical contractor. This contractor will take the entire responsibility of the installation. The installation has to comply with the legislation and the standards in force in your country.

How to stick the gasket:

The gasket supplied with the hob prevents the intrusion of liquids into the cabinet below. Its installation has to be done carefully, as described below.

Stick the gasket (2) two millimeters from the external edge of the glass, after removing the protection tape (3).

Fitting - installing:

- Cut out sizes of the worktop:

Glass		Cutting		Rear	Side	Radius	Shoulder		Shoulder depth.
A1	B1	C	D	E	F	H	A2	B2	G
520	780	490	750	60	40	8	526	786	5

• Ensure that there is a distance of 50 mm between the hob and the wall or sides.
• The hobs are classified as "Y" class for heat protection. Ideally the hob should be installed with plenty of space on either side. There may be a wall at the rear and tall units or a wall at one side. On the other side, however, no unit or divider must stand higher than the hob.

- The piece of furniture or the support in which the hob is to be fitted, as well as the edges of furniture, the laminate coatings and the glue used to fix them, must be able to resist temperatures of up to 75 °C.

- The mural rods of edge must be heat-resisting.

• 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.

- If a drawer is placed under the work, avoid to put into this drawer flammable objects (for example: sprays) or not heat-resistant objects.

- 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.

- The safety gap between the hob and the cooker hood placed above must respect the indications of the hood manufacturer. In case of absence of instructions respect a distance minimum of 760 mm.
