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.

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:

1. Remove the protective films from the

external surfaces of the appliance and accessories.

2. Remove any labels [apart from the

technical data plate].

3. Place a pan full of water on each ofthe

front cooking zones and switch them on to the maximum power setting for at least 30 minutes. À. Afier 30 minutes, switch off the front cooking zones and repeat this operation for the rear cooking zones and any central cooking zone.

5. 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.

Allthe 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. À beep will sound to confirm every effective touch. List of symbols © On/Of key: turns the hob on or off. O] Pause key: pauses cooking. Control lock key: prevents accidental operation of controls. Increase key: increases the cooking time or timer. Decrease key: decreases the cooking time or timer. Scroll bar: increases or power level. ecreases the @ Special functions key: activates the appliance'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 sufficientl large base. Suitable cookware: + Enamelled steel cookware with thick bases. + Castiron 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. IFyou do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the pan, place it 4 on a cooking zone and start the cooking zone. IFthe symbol appears on the display, it means the pan is not suitable.

Limiting the cooking duration The hob has an automatic device which limits the duration of use. Ifthe 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, ifthe zone is hot, the symbol H appears on the display. ol æo Nour) uw n

Protection from overheating IFthe 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 ofthe base ofthe pan must correspond to the diameter ofthe cooking zone. + When buying a pan, check whether the diameter indicated is that of the base or the top ofthe 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.

4 Cleaning and maintenance

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 prolective, water-repellent membrane which also resists dirt. AÏl 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 ofthe 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. lt 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.

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 thatthe 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: + _Letthe 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, ifneeded. The fuses blow or the circuit breaker ofthe residential electrical system trips repeatedly. + Call Technical Support or an electrician. There are cracks or fissures in the hob: +_ Turn ofthe appliance immediately, disconnect the power supply and contact Technical Support.

5.1 Electrical connection

General information Check the grid characteristics against the data indicated on the plate. The identification plate bearing the technical data, serial number and brand name is visibly positioned on the appliance. Do not remove this plate for any reason. Perform the ground connection using a wire that is 20 mm longer than the other wires. The appliance is connected as follows: 90 cm models: + 380-415 V 3N- (default) ARR 6 x 2.5 mm? six-core cable.

The circuit breaker should be located near the appliance and in an easily reachable position. Connection with plug and socket Make sure that the plug and socket are of the same type. Avoid using adapters and shunts as these could cause overheating and a risk of burns.

Testing 5.3 Section cut from the countertop Atthe end of installation, carry out a brief inspection test. IF the hob fails to operate, after checking that you have carried out the instructions correctly, unplug the appliance and contact Technical Support.

5.2 Safety instructions
