The kitchen area should be dry and aired and equipped with efficient ventilation. When installing the ceramic, easy access to all control elements should be ensured.

This is a Y-type design built-in ceramic, which means that its back wall and one side wall can be placed next to a high piece of furniture or a wall .Coating or veneer used on fitted furniture must be applied with a heat-resistant adhesive (100℃).This prevents surface deformation or detachment the coating. Hoods should be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Assembly of ceramic hob :

Make an opening with the dimensions given in the diagram for the hob to be mounted on the worktop． Check seal for perfect fit and overall cover. Lower the ceramic hob into place and align correctly. Using a standard screwdriver, tighten the tension clamps evenly starting at the centre and moving diagonal, until the built-in rim is tight on the worktop.

Cut a hole in the worktop that corresponds with the drawing shown above.

IMPORTANT: You must observe the ventilation requirements shown in the drawing opposite. IMPORTANT: There are ventilation holes around the outside of the hob. YOU MUST ensure that these holes are not blocked by the work top, when you put the hob into position (see drawing opposite). IMPORTANT: Do not use a silicon sealant to seal the appliance against the aperture. This will make it difficult to remove the hob from the aperture in future, particularly if it needs to be serviced. Carefully turn the hob back over and then gently lower it into the aperture hole that you have cut out. There are holes on the base or the sides of the hob that you can fix the four brackets to. There are three holes in each one of the brackets.

You should place the bracket on the underneath of the hob, in a position that is appropriate for the aperture that you have cut out. Using the screws provided, fix the bracket to the hob. These screws MUST be securely tightened. Fitting guidelines The

ceramic hob is manufactured to work with three-phase alternating current (400V3N~50Hz).The voltage rating of the ceramic hob heating elements is 230V. Adapting the ceramic hob to operate with one-phase current is possible by appropriate bridging in the connection box according to the connection diagram below. The connection diagram is also found on the cover of the connection box. Remember that the connection wire should match the connection type and the power rating of the ceramic hob. The connection cable must be secured in a strain-relief clamp. Warning! Remember to connect the safety circuit to the connection box terminal marked with .The electricity supply for the ceramic hob must have a safety switch which enables the power to be cut off in case of emergency. The distance between the working contacts of the safety switch must be at least 3mm. Before connecting the ceramic hob to the power supply it is important to read the information on the data plate and the connection diagram. CONNECTION DIAGRAM Caution!

You should use a good quality screwdriver to carefully, fully tighten ALL of the terminal screws. If when the hob is first switched on, only two of the zones work, you should recheck that the terminal screws are all fully tightened. This should be done before contacting the Customer Care Department. IMPORTANT: The appliance must NOT be connected to the mains supply by means of a 13A plug and socket. The cable can be looped if necessary, but make sure that is not kinked or trapped when the hob is in position. Care must be taken to avoid the cable being in contact with hot parts of the appliance. Replacing the mains supply cable If the mains supply cable is damaged, then it must be replaced by an appropriate replacement. The mains supply cable should be replaced in accordance with the following instructions: Switch the appliance off at the control switch. Open the terminal block on the underside of the hob. Unscrew the terminal screws fixing the cable. The “green-yellow” earth wire must be connected to the terminal marked It must be about 10 mm longer than the live and neutral wires. The “blue” neutral wire must be connected to the terminal marked with letter (N) - the live wire must be connected to the terminal marked with letter (L).

Using the ceramic hob Before first use IMPORTANT: You should clean the ceramic hob surface (see “Maintenance and cleaning” section). You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on the heating elements during transit. Do not burn off more than one zone at once. You must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on each zone as you burn it off. Important! The inside of the oven should only be washed with warm water and a small amount of washing-up liquid. How to use the hot plate Put the pot in center of the heating zone, Turn the knob clockwise and anticlockwise to turn on the hob. High temperature indication lamp: When the glass plate is too hot, the high temperature indication lamp will light up, don’t touch the glass plate until the indication lamp goes out. Shut down:after using,please turn the knob to “OFF”,the hob will stop heating.

Ensure the heating plate is clean-a soiled zone does not transfer all of the heat. Protect the plate against corrosion. Switch off the plate against corrosion. Do not leave pans with prepared dishes based on fats and oils unattended on the switched-on plate; hot fat can spontaneously catch fire. Heat level selection

The stainless ornamental rings can be cleaned using washing liquids or gentle liquid scrubbing agents and wiped dry. The surface of the hotplates should be regularly polished with white mineral oil or silicone oil. Never use animal or vegetable fats like butter, lard, oil etc. for the purpose. The enamel working plate should be cleaned using warm water with a bit of washing liquid. larger stains can be removed using gentle scrubbing liquids. Caution! All repairs and regulatory activities should be carried out by the appropriate service centre or by an appropriately authorized fitter. IMPORTANT: If your appliance appears not to be operating correctly, Please contact with dealer.

Hob guidelines The first few times the hob top is used, it may give off an acrid, burning smell. This smell will disappear completely with repeated use. The worktop is fitted with cooking areas of different diameter and power. The positions where the heat will radiate from are clearly marked on the hob top. The saucepans must be positioned exactly on these zones for efficient heating to occur. Pans should have the same diameter as the cooking zone that they are being used on. You should not use saucepans with rough bottoms, as this can scratch the ceramic surface. Before use, make sure that the bottoms of the saucepans are clean and dry. When cold, the bottom of the pans should be slightly concave, as they expand when hot and lie flat on the surface of the hob. This will allow the heat to transfer more easily. The best thickness for the bottom of the pans is 2 – 3 mm of enamelled steel and 4 – 6 mm for stainless steel with sandwich type bottoms. If these rules are not followed, then there will be a great loss of heat and energy. Heat not absorbed by the saucepan, will spread to the hob, frame and surrounding cabinets. Preferably cover pans with a lid to permit cooking at a lower heat. Always cook vegetables and potatoes, etc. in as little water to reduce cooking times. Food or liquid that has high sugar content may damage the hob top if it comes into contact with the ceramic hob surface. Any spillages should be wiped up immediately, however this may not prevent the hob surface from becoming damaged. IMPORTANT: The ceramic hob surface is tough; however it is not unbreakable and can be damaged. Especially if pointed or hard objects are allowed to fall on it with some force. DO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN OR CRACKED. YOU SHOULD SWITCH OFF THE APPLIANCE TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF ELECTRIC SHOCK AND CONTACT THE CUSTOMER CARE DEPARTMENT IMMEDIATELY. Maintenance and cleaning Cleaning operations must only be carried out when the hob is cool. The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process. Cleaning the ceramic hob top Any residues that are left on the hob top surface from cleaning agents will damage it. You should remove any residues with warm water mixed with a little washing up liquid.

Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage the hob surface; you should clean it using warm water mixed with a little washing up liquid. You may find it easier to clean some deposits whilst the hob surface is still warm. However you should take care not to burn yourself if cleaning the hob surface when it is still warm. After each use Wipe the appliance over with a damp cloth. Dry the appliance by rubbing the surface with a clean cloth.
