Ventilation
The cooling system is fully automatic. The cooling fan starts with a low speed when the calories brought out by the electronic system reach a certain level. The ventilation starts its high speed when the hob is intensively used. The cooling fan reduces its speed and stops automatically when the electronic circuit is cooled enough.
STARTING-UP AND OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
Before first use
Clean your hob with a damp cloth, and then dry the surface thoroughly. Do not use detergent which risks causing blue-tinted colour on the glass surface. Use only detergents specific for cleaning ceramic glass.
Induction principle
An induction coil is located under each heating zone. When it is engaged, it produces a variable electromagnetic field which produces inductive currents in the ferromagnetic bottom plate of the pan. The result is a heating-up of the pan located on the heating zone.
Of course the pan has to be adapted:
- All ferromagnetic metallic pans are recommended (please verify it thanks a little magnet) cast iron and steel pans, enamelled pans, stainless-steel pans with ferromagnetic bottoms...
- Are excluded: cupper, pure stainless-steel, aluminium, glass, wood, ceramic, stoneware, clay, stainless-steel non ferromagnetic...
The induction heating zone adapts automatically the size of the pan. With a too small diameter the pan doesn't work. This diameter is varying in function of the heating zone diameter. If the pan is not adapted to the induction hob the display will show [] .
Sensitive touch
Your ceramic hob is equipped with electronic controls with sensitive touch keys. When your finger presses the key, the corresponding command is activated. This activation is validated by a control light, a letter or a number in the display and/or a "beep" sound.
For normal use press only one key at the same time.

The installer is held to respect the legislation and the safety standards enforce in his home country.
Failure to respect these conditions results in loss of warranty.
Installation
How to stick the gasket:
The gasket supplied with the hob avoids all infiltration of liquids in the cabinet. Its installation has to be done carefully, in conformity with the following drawing.

Stick the gasket (2) two millimeters from the external edge of the glass, after removing the protection sheet (3).
Built-in:
- Refer to the diagram below for cut out sizes from work plan. Ensure that there is a distance of 50mm minimum between the hob and the wall or sides. The work plan must have a minimum thickness of 30mm and must be heat resistant.


-
The hobs are classified as "Y" class for heat protection. Ideally during the built-in step, 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 appliance must stand higher than the hob.
-
The piece of furniture or the support in which the hob has 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 100^ .
- The mural rods of edge must be heat-resisting.
- Do not install the hob to the top of a non ventilated oven or a dishwasher.
- If a drawer is below the hob, to guarantee a good air circulation and good cooling system of the appliance, maintain a gap of 20 ~mm minimum between the bottom of the drawer and the inferior part of the hob.

- WARNING: 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 .
- If a drawer is placed under the work, avoid to put into this drawer flammable objects (for example: sprays) or not heat-resistant objects.
- The connection cord should be subjected, after built-in step, to no mechanical constraint, such for example of the fact of the drawer. Materials which are often used to make worktops can expand on contact with water. To protect the cut out edge, apply a coat of varnish or special sealant.
