Using your hob in complete safety We have designed this hob for private use in homes. With a view to constantly improving our products, we reserve the right to make any changes to their technical, program or aesthetic features connected with their technical evolution. These hobs are exclusively designed for cooking drinks and foodstuffs and contain no asbestos based components. We suggest that you should periodically check that there are no objects (glass, paper, etc.) that could obstruct the air inlet under your induction hob (See fitting) HOB safety Residual heat indicator A sensor continuously monitors the temperature of the components of your hob. The power output by the hob will automatically be reduced if this temperature becomes excessive. After intensive use, the cooking zone may remain hot for several minutes. The letter “H” is displayed during this period. Do not touch the zones concerned

• You only have to remove the pan from the hob to stop power instantaneously. Touch the "Off" touch control to turn off the heating zone completely. Automatic-Stop Automatic stop is a safety function for your hob. It starts up automatically if ever you forget to turn off your cooking. SAUCEPAN safety Each unit is equipped with a sensor that continuously monitors the temperature of the bottom of the pan, so that overheating is impossible (empty saucepan, etc.). Power consumed Between 1....4 Between 5....7 Between 8....9 METALLIC OBJECT safety 8 hours 2 hours 1 hour The letter A is displayed for the heating zone concerned and the hob will bleep for about 2 minutes. The A will continue to be displayed until any control of the zone in question is touched. The hob will then bleep twice to confirm your action. A small object such as a fork, spoon or a ring placed on your induction hob by itself is not detected as a pan. The display flashes and there is no output power. Recommendations

Your induction hob in complete safety The principles of induction Induced currents When your induction hob is switched on and a heating power has been selected, the electronic circuits produce induced currents that instantaneously heat the bottom of the pan that transfers this heat to the food. Thus cooking takes place with practically no energy loss between the induction hob and the food.

Induction coil Electronic circuit For the attention of wearers of pacemakers or other active implants: The hob complies with all current standards on electromagnetic interference. Your induction hob is therefore perfectly in keeping with legal requirements (89/336/CEE directives). It is designed not to create interference on any other electrical apparatus being used on condition that the apparatus in question also complies with this legislation. Your induction hob generates short-range magnetic fields. To avoid any interference between your induction hob and a pacemaker, the latter must be designed to comply with relevant regulations. In this respect, we can only guarantee our own product conformity. Please consult the pacemaker manufacturer or your doctor concerning its conformity or any possible incompatibility.L If a crack appears in the glass surface, disconnect the appliance immediately to avoid any risk of electric shock. For disconnecting, remove the fuses or use the cutout switch. Do not re-use your hob until the glass surface has been changed. Your hob must never be used as a storage space or cutting surface for any products whatsoever. When cooking never use aluminium foil and never place products wrapped in aluminium foil or products deep-frozen in aluminium packs on the hob. The aluminium will melt and damage your appliance irreparably. Do not leave empty pans on your hob in case of residual heat or if the hob is turned on by mistake. A steam cleaner must not be used.

• aluminium pans with special base. pans which do not have a flat base may be suitable, however they must not be deformed too badly. You probably already have some suitable pans. Your induction hob is able to recognize most types of pans. Pan test: Place your pan on a zone, for example position 4; you know that your pan is compatible if the display does not flash, but if it does flash then you cannot use this pan for induction cooking.You can also test it with a magnet: if the magnet "sticks" to the base of the pan, then you can use it for induction cooking. Pans compatible with induction are:
• pans made of enamel coated steel with or without a non-stick coating. Choose a pan marked with the logo on its base or packaging to be sure that it is perfectly suitable for use on your induction hob under normal conditions of use. A list of utensils is supplied with these instructions to help you make your choice.
• Note Glass, ceramic, earthenware pans, aluminium pans (without a special base) and copper pans, and some non-magnetic stainless steel pans are incompatible with induction cooking. You will be informed by the flashing display.

• cast iron pans with or without enamel coated base. An enamelled coated base will prevent the glass top of your hob from getting scratched.
• stainless steel pans designed for induction cooking. Most stainless steel pans (saucepans, stewpans, frying pans, deep frying pans, etc.) are suitable for induction cooking if they pass the pan test. You should choose pans with a thick flat base for uniform cooking (heat is better distributed).

Installing your hob in complete safety Remove the appliance from its packaging. Remove and completely roll out the mains cable situated under the appliance. Respect a distance of 5 cm from all vertical partitions. Do not place your hob beneath a shelf or close to inflammable materials such as curtains, drapes, etc Connect your hob to a 16-amp socket with an earth connection. If you are using an electrical extension lead, ensure that it is in good condition and complies with safety standards (earth, cross section of conductor = 1.5 mm²). IMPORTANT Your appliance must rest on a clean, horizontal, smooth, stable and heat resistant surface, or a surface covered in such a material. Do not move your appliance whilst in use. These hobs must be connected to the power supply via a plug "16 Amp" that complies with publication CEI 60083 or an all-pole cut-out unit with contacts that open by at least 3mm. The appliance must be positioned in such a way that the plug is accessible. When installing the hob, precautions must be taken to prevent damage to the mains cable by sharp edges. If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturers, their After Sales Service or another similarly qualified person for avoiding any possible risk of accident. When the power is switched on, or after a long power failure, a light code appears on the control panel. This disappears automatically after about 30 seconds or as soon as any touch control is touched on the panel. This is normal, as the display is for use by the after-sales service when required. The user must not take this into account under any circumstances.

Preserving and maintaining your hob ● You must not ● You must: Leave metal cooking utensils, knives and forks, or metal objects on the hob. They will get hot if left close to any heating zone that is in use. Store MAINTENANCE or INFLAMMABLE products in the cupboard under your hob. Leave an empty pan on a heating zone. Avoid any shocks with pans: The glass surface is highly resistant but not unbreakable. Avoid rubbing with any abrasive or with the base of pans etc. as in time this will deteriorate the markings on the top of your ceramic hob. Heat up a closed can. It may burst; this recommendation applies to all methods of cooking. Put the pans on the frame or plate (depending on the model) Preheat at maximum temperature when using pans with non-stick inside surfaces (Teflon type). Use very little or no fat at all. The maximum heating position is for boiling and frying only. Avoid using pans with rough or dented bases: They may hold and transport matter liable to stain or scratch the hob. Any such faults, which are not the cause of breakdowns nor make the hob impossible to use, are not included in the guarantee conditions. Place your pan in the middle of the heating zone. It is very easy to clean your countertop hob, especially if you follow these few recommendations:

Minor Soak the area to be cleaned with hot water, then wipe it. Clean sponges Accumulated burnt-on stains Soak the area to be cleaned with hot water, use a special ceramic hob scraper to remove the worst, finish off with the rough side of a cleaning sponge, then wipe it clean. Clean sponges special ceramic hob scraper Rings and traces of limescale Apply hot white spirit vinegar on the stain, leave to act then wipe off with a soft cloth.- Use a commercial cleaner. Special ceramic hob cleaner Burnt-on stains following sugar spillage, melted aluminium or plastic. - Apply a special ceramic hob cleaner on the surface, preferably one which contains silicone (protective action). powder abrasive-backed sponge cream

Special ceramic hob cleaner ordinary sponge or special sponge for delicate items Minor troubleshooting You have doubts about whether your hob is working correctly .... ...... this does not necessarily mean there is a breakdown. Nevertheless, check the following points

POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? When you switch on, the display lights up The hob is working normally When you switch on, the fuse blows Your hob is connected incorrectly The fan keeps going for a few minutes after the hob has been switched off The electronics are cooling down This is normal. The top of the hob is always warm (even when it is switched off). The electronics are under power as for all other electronic apparatus (TV, transformers, etc.). This is normal. The hob does not work. Displays on the keyboard do not come on The apparatus is not under power. There is a power or connection problem. Inspect the fuses and the cut-out switch. The hob does not work, another message comes

The electronic circuit is working badly. Call the After Sales Service After having turned on a heating zone, the keyboard displays continue to flash. The saucepan you use is unsuitable for induction cooking or its diameter is under 12 cm. (10 cm on the 160 mm zone). See containers. The pans make a noise during cooking This comes from vibrations made by energy going from the hob to the pan. Under high power this phenomenon is normal with certain types of pans. There is no danger for the hob. The hob gives off a smell when first used for cooking A new apparatus Use each heating zone for ½ hour with a pan full of water. Check the connection and make sure it complies with requirements. If the slightest break or crack appears in the ceramic glass surface, disconnect the unit immediately and contact your After Sales Service.
