entirely complete. In regards to the technical and safety measures that must be adopted for fume extraction, regulations issued by local authorities must be strictly followed. The extracted air must not be conveyed through the same ducts used to extract the fumes generated by gas combustion or other types of combustion devices. Never use the hood unless the grill has been correctly assembled! years or older and by persons with physical, sensory or mental impairments, or by people without any experience or the necessary knowledge, provided they are supervised or have received instructions regarding the safe use of the device and provided they have a thorough understanding of the associated risks. Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with the device. Cleaning and maintenance must never be performed by children unless they are properly supervised. The room must be properly ventilated when the cooker hood is used at the same time as other combustion devices, gas or otherwise. The hood must be regularly cleaned both internally and externally (AT LEAST ONCE PER MONTH), in strict accordance with the maintenance instructions. Failure to follow the rules for hood cleaning and filter replacement and cleaning shall result in a fire hazard. It is strictly prohibited to flame food. The use of an open flame may damage the filters and cause a fire hazard; it must therefore be avoided under all circumstances. Extra care must be taken when frying to prevent the oil from overheating and catching fire. CAUTION: When the hob is on, the accessible parts of the hood may become hot. Caution! Do not connect the device to the electrical network until installation is Use only the fastening screws supplied with the product for its installation, or if not supplied, purchase the correct type of screws. Use screws with the right length, as indicated in the installation guide. When the cooker hood is used together with other devices powered with nonelectrical energy, the negative pressure of the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bar). This manual must be stored for future consultation at any time. If sold, transferred or moved, it must remain with the product.

Device designed, tested and developed in compliance with regulations on:

  • EMC: EN 55014-1; CISPR 14-1; EN 55014-2; CISPR 14-2; EN/IEC 61000-3-3; EN/IEC 61000-3-12. Recommendations for correct use in order to reduce the impact on the environment: When starting to cook, turn on the hood at minimum speed and leave it on for a few minutes even after cooking is complete. Increase the speed only if there is a large amount of fumes and steam, using the Booster function only in extreme cases. To keep the odour reduction system running efficiently, replace the carbon filter/s when necessary. To ensure the high performance of the grease filter, clean it when necessary. To improve efficiency and minimise noise, use the maximum ducting diameter indicated in this manual.

Recommendations for best results: - Use pots and pans with a bottom diameter equal to that of the cooking zone. - Use only pots and pans with flat bottoms. - Where possible, keep the lid on pots during cooking - Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with a small amount of water to reduce cooking time. - Use a pressure cooker, it further reduces the energy consumption and cooking time - Place the pot in the centre of the cooking zone drawn on the hob. Using the extractor fan The extraction system can be used in two versions: external extraction and evacuation or as a filter with internal recirculation. Extraction version Fig.7

The fumes are evacuated towards the outside through a series of pipes (bought separately) fastened to the supplied connecting flange. The diameter of the exhaust pipe must be equivalent to the diameter of the connecting ring: - for rectangular outlets 222 x 89 mm - for circular outlets Ø 150 mm (*) For more information, see the page relative to the extraction version in the illustrated part of this manual. Fig.7c Connect the product to wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connecting flange). Using wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a smaller diameter may reduce the efficiency of extraction and drastically increase noise levels. All responsibility in this regard is therefore denied. ! Use ducting with the minimal indispensable length. ! Use ducting with the least possible number of curves (maximum angle: 90°). ! Avoid drastic changes in the ducting diameter. Using the hob The induction cooking system is based on the physical phenomenon of magnetic induction. The main characteristic of this system is the direct transfer of energy from the generator to the pot. Advantages: When compared to electric hobs, your induction hob is: - Safer: lower temperature on the glass surface. - Faster: shorter food heating times. - More accurate: the hob immediately reacts to your commands - More efficient: 90% of the absorbed energy is transformed into heat. Moreover, once the pot is removed from the hob, heat transmission is immediately interrupted, avoiding unnecessary heat losses.

2.1 Cooking containers

Use only pots bearing the symbol Important: to avoid permanent damage to the hob surface, do not use: - containers with less than perfectly flat bottoms. - metal containers with enamelled bottoms. - containers with a rough base, to avoid scratching the hob surface. - never place hot pots and pans on the surface of the hob's control panel Filtration version Fig. 8 The extracted air will be filtered in special grease filters and odour filters before being sent back into the room. The product is supplied with all parts necessary for standard installation, with the air outlet positioned in the front part of the cabinet plinth. Four high-performance ceramic activated carbon filter packs are already supplied with the product. Ceramic filters are innovative modular carbon filters, which are regenerating (see the Maintenance - Activated carbon filters section of this manual). Their chemical-physical properties allow extremely efficient odour absorption and high mechanical resistance. For more information, see the page relative to the filtration version (in the illustrated part of this manual). Fig. 13b

2.1.1 Pre-existing containers

Induction cooking uses magnetism to generate heat. Containers must therefore contain iron. Check if the pot material is magnetic using a magnet. Pots are not suitable if they are not magnetically detectable.

2.1.2 Recommended pan bottom diameters

IMPORTANT: if the pots are not correctly sized, the cooking zones will not turn on For details of the minimum pot diameter that needs to be used on each zone, see the illustrated part of this manual.

The product is equipped with four filter packs that trap odours thanks to the activated carbons. The activated carbons are incorporated into a ceramic structure, making them easily and completely accessible by impurities, thus creating a large absorption surface. The ceramic activated carbon filters will become saturated after a more or less prolonged period of use, depending on the type of cooking and frequency with which the grease filters are cleaned. These odour filters can be thermally regenerated every 2/3 months in an oven preheated to 200°C for 45 minutes. Regeneration allows a maximum filter lifespan of 5 years. Fig. 17 – 17a – 17b – 17c Hob maintenance Caution! Before any cleaning or maintenance, make sure the cooking zones are switched off and the heat indicator has turned off.

The hob must be cleaned after each use. Important: Do not use abrasive sponges, scouring pads. Their use, over time, may ruin the glass. Do not use chemical irritants, such as oven sprays or stain removers. After each use, leave the hob to cool and clean it to remove deposits and stains caused by food residue. Sugar or food with a high sugar content damages the hob and must be immediately removed. Salt, sugar and sand may scratch the glass surface. Use a soft cloth, paper towel or specific products to clean the hob (follow the Manufacturer's instructions). DO NOT USE STEAM JET CLEANERS!!! Important: If liquids accidentally or excessively leak out of the pots, the drain valve located on the lower part of the product can be opened so as to remove any residue and be able to clean in conditions of maximum hygiene. Fig.18 For a more complete and in-depth clean, the lower tray can be completely removed. Fig.18a - 18b Extractor fan maintenance Cleaning For cleaning, use ONLY a cloth moistened with neutral liquid detergents. DO NOT USE CLEANING UTENSILS OR TOOLS! Avoid the use of products containing abrasives. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL! Grease filter Traps grease particles generated by cooking. Must be cleaned once per month (or when the filter saturation indication system indicates this need), with non-aggressive detergents, either manually or in the dishwasher at a low temperature and in a short cycle. When cleaned in the dishwasher, the metal grease filter may discolour, but its filtering characteristics remain unchanged.
