Installation should only be carried out by specialists. The user must comply with the legislation and standards in force in their country of residence.

Fitting the watertight seal

The adhesive seal supplied with the appliance prevents anything from getting inside the unit. Care must be taken when fitting this item.

Stick the seal on the edge of the hob, 3 mm from the outer edge, after removing the protective strip.

Fitting the hob

Cut the worktop according to the dimensions shown in the diagram below.

For fitting and use, there must be a gap of at least 50 mm around the hole.

Make sure the thickness of the worktop is at least 30mm. Select an insulated, heat-resistant worktop material (wood or similar hygroscopic materials should not be used unless it is an impregnated material) to avoid electrical shocks and reduce any warping caused by the heat radiating from the hob.

There are vents on the outside of the hob.

Make sure that these openings are not blocked by the worktop when fitting the hob.

Please note that the glue between the plastic or wood material and the unit must withstand a minimum temperature of 150^ C so that the coating does not peel off. The walls to the rear and sides, and the surrounding surfaces, must therefore be able to withstand a temperature of 90^ C.

Before fitting the hob, make sure that:

• The worktop is at right angles and level, and there are no structural elements interfering with the spacing requirements.
• The worktop is made of a heat-resistant and insulated material.
• If the hob is fitted above an oven, the oven must have a built-in cooling fan.
• The installation will comply with all clearance requirements as well as the applicable standards and regulations.
• If the appliance is not fitted with an accessible plug, the fixed installation must include a system for disconnecting it in accordance with applicable regulations.
• The appliance must be connected to the mains power by an all-pole switch (e.g. circuit breakers, fuses, residual current devices and contact switches) with a gap of at least 3 mm between the contacts.
• CAUTION: Only use hob guards designed by the manufacturer of the cooking appliance or recommended by the appliance manufacturer in the operating instructions, or hob guards built into the appliance. The use of unsuitable guards could lead to accidents.
• This appliance is not intended to be operated using an external timer or a remote control system.
• Consult local planning authorities and council regulations if you are unsure about the installation.

- Use heat-resistant, easy-to-clean finishes (e.g. ceramic tiles) for the wall surfaces surrounding the hob.

After fitting the hob, make sure that:

• The power cable is not accessible through the cupboard doors or drawers.
- There is enough cool air flowing from outside the units to the base of the hob.
- If the hob is fitted above a drawer or cupboard, a thermal protection barrier must be fitted under the bottom of the hob.
- The circuit breaker must remain easily accessible to the customer.

Fitting the mounting hooks

• The appliance must be placed on a stable and smooth surface (use the packaging). Do not force to controls that protrude from the hob.
• Secure the hob to the worktop by screwing the 4 hooks under the hob (see photo) after installation.
• Adjust the position of the hooks according to the thickness of the worktop.

cooking tips

Choice of cooking utensils

WHAT EQUIPMENT TO USE?

Most pans and other cooking utensils are compatible with ceramic glass. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions. However, choose a material that is not likely to scratch the glass-ceramic surface, such as cast iron or stainless-steel pans. Aluminium or copper utensils can leave marks that are difficult to remove.

CHARACTERISTICS OF CONTAINERS

• Cookware should always have a flat, full bottom that fits snugly into the cooking areas. Do not use unstable or deformed pans.
• Place the cookware on the cooking zone before switching it on.
• Make sure the diameter of the pan is suitable for the diameter of the cooking zone and is well positioned in the centre.
• Dry the underside of the pan before placing it on the cooking zone.
• Do not drag the pan across the glass surface to avoid damaging it. Lift the pan.
  • Using a lid will reduce the cooking time and save energy.

OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS

• Keep children away from the hob while it's in use. Make sure container handles are facing inwards. Remember that oil or fat can ignite if brought to an excessive temperature.
• The cooking zones remain hot after use. Do not leave any object on them and do not put your hands on the hob or you will burn yourself, as long as the residual heat indicator is still on.
• Unplug the hob if you notice the glass cracking.
• Do not use the hob as a storage or work surface.

cleaning and maintenance

• Daily cleaning and proper maintenance have a crucial impact on the durability of your ceramic hob.
• Clean the ceramic hob following the same rules as for glass. Never use objects that could scratch the glass ceramic such as the tip of a knife, abrasive or aggressive cleaning products, scouring powder, scratching sponges, etc.
  • After each use, immediately clean up any liquid spills, especially foods with a high sugar content or sugar splashes, to prevent them from burning on the glass-ceramic surface.
• Wipe light, unburned soiling with a damp cloth without cleaning agent. Some cleaning products can cause a blue stain on the plate. Stubborn stains often cannot be removed after the first cleaning, even if you use specific cleaning products.
• Remove larger stains stuck to the hob when the hob is still slightly warm using a scraper (not supplied). After removing the largest stains, wipe the surface with a damp cloth when the hob has completely cooled down.
• Calcium residues can be removed using vinegar or special cleaners.
• We recommend you obtain specific cleaning products for the maintenance of glass-ceramic hobs from shops for thorough cleaning.
• Never clean your hob with a pressure or steam cleaner.
  • Never apply cleaner to a hot hob.

troubleshooting guide

Some minor issues can be resolved by the user. If the information below doesn't resolve your specific problem, do not attempt to repair the appliance by yourself, but contact your retailer's after-sales service.

The hob doesn't switch on:

• The hob is improperly connected to the mains.
- Check the fuse in your home's electric board and replace it if necessary.
- Check if there is a power cut.

The control buttons do not respond:

- The child lock is activated and the controls are locked. Press and hold for a few seconds.

The touch-sensitive buttons are difficult to use:

- The touch-sensitive buttons are covered with water or grease. Make sure the surface of the touch-sensitive buttons is clean and dry.

The glass of the hob is scratched:

• You are using cooking vessels with rough edges. Use cooking utensils with a flat, smooth base. Check out the "Choice of cooking utensils" section.
• You are using an abrasive sponge or cleaning product. See the "Maintenance and cleaning" section.

A cooking zone stops automatically and the residual heat indicator comes on:

• When an excessive temperature is detected, the hob will automatically stop.
• This is a safety feature in the event of overheating. You can turn the hob back on and continue cooking.

The cooking plate is cracked:

- DANGER! Stop using the hob. Unplug it immediately and contact your dealer's after-sale service centre.
