Advantages of induction cooking
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.
- 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.
2.2 Available accessories
Scaper
Useful for cleaning the hob.
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.

- Do not allow children younger than 8 years old to come near the appliance when in operation.
- Activate the key lock when you have children or pets which could reach the hob.
- After use the cooking zones remain hot for a certain period of time after they have been turned off. Do not touch the hob surfaces.
High temperature Danger of fire or explosion
- Do not use or leave flammable materials near the appliance or directly underneath the hob.
- Do not cook using closed tins or containers, plastic kitchenware or containers.
- Do not leave the appliance unattended during cooking operations where fats or oils could be released.
- In case you notice cracks or fissures or you cannot turn off the appliance, disconnect the power supply and contact the Assistance Centre.
Improper use Risk of damage to surfaces
- Do not use the hob if the pyrolytic cycle is taking place inside any oven installed below.
- Never place pans with bases which are not perfectly flat and smooth.
- Avoid hard, solid objects falling on the cooking surface.
- Do not use the hob as a support surface.
3.2 Preliminary operations
In order to remove any moisture that could have accumulated during the manufacturing process and for the electronic circuits and control keypad to work properly:
- Remove the protective films from the external surfaces of the appliance and accessories.
- Remove any labels (apart from the technical data plate).
- Place a pan full of water on each of the front cooking zones and switch them on to the maximum power setting for at least 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, switch off the front cooking zones and repeat this operation for the rear cooking zones and any central cooking zone.
- If after carrying out the above operations the controls do not work properly, it might be necessary to extend the operations until the moisture has completely evaporated.
3.3 Using the hob
On first connection to the electrical mains, an automatic check will be carried out that will switch on all indicator lights for a few seconds.
All the appliance's control and monitoring devices are located together on the front panel. The induction hob is controlled by means of the Touch control sensor keys. Lightly touch a symbol on the glass ceramic surface. A beep will sound to confirm every effective touch.
List of symbols
On/Off key: turns the hob on or off.
Pause key: pauses cooking.
Control lock key: prevents accidental ation of controls.
Increase key: increases the cooking or timer.
Decrease key: decreases the cooking or timer.
ll bar: increases or decreases the er level.
Special functions key: activates the iance's special functions.
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.
To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the pan, place it on a cooking zone and start the cooking
zone. If the symbol appears on the display, it means the pan is not suitable.
Use only cookware with a perfectly flat bottom which is suitable for induction hobs. Using cookware with an irregular bottom could jeopardise the efficiency of the heating system and prevent cookware from being detected on the cooking zone.
Limiting the cooking duration
The hob has an automatic device which limits the duration of use.
If the cooking zone settings are not changed, the maximum duration of operation for each zone 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 H appears on the display.
| Set power level | Maximum cooking duration in hours |
| 1 | 8 1⁄2 |
| 2 | 6 1⁄2 |
| 3 | 5 1⁄2 |
| 4 | 4 1⁄2 |
| 5 | 3 1⁄2 |
| 6 | 2 1⁄2 |
| 7 | 2 1⁄2 |
| 8 | 2 |
| 9 | 1 1⁄2 |
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.
To avoid excessively high temperatures forming in the electronics, the power to the cooking zone is reduced automatically.
Advice on energy-saving
- The diameter of the base of the pan must correspond to the diameter of the cooking zone.
- 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 makes it possible to preserve the vitamins 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 pan leads to a waste of energy.
Under certain circumstances, if the hob and the oven are being used at the same time, the maximum power limit that can be used by the electrical system might be exceeded.
Power levels
The power in the cooking zone can be adjusted to various levels. The table shows the levels suitable for various types of cooking.

4 Cleaning and maintenance
4.1 Instructions
Improper use Risk of damage to surfaces
- Do not use steam jets to clean the appliance.
- Do not spill sugar or sweet mixtures on the hob during cooking.
- Do not place materials or substances that could melt (plastic or aluminium foil).
- Keep sensor keys clean at all times and do not rest any object on them.
- Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on parts made of steel or that have metallic surface finishes (e.g. anodizing, nickel or chrome plating).
- Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (e.g. scouring powders, stain removers and metallic sponges) on glass parts. Use wooden or plastic utensils.
4.2 Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.
4.3 Ordinary weekly cleaning
Clean and maintain the hob once a week using an ordinary glass 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 will undergo a corrosive reaction when heated up and could modify the structure of the cooking surface.
4.4 Food stains or residues
Smudges from aluminium-based pans can be easily cleaned off with a cloth dampened in vinegar.
After cooking, remove any burnt residues with the scraper provided; rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Regular use of the scraper considerably reduces the need for chemical detergents for the daily cleaning of the hob.
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.
4.5 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, re-activate the circuit breaker.
The cooking results are unsatisfactory:
- Make sure that the cooking temperature is not too high or too low.
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.
