under supervision or after instruction on the use of the appliance
from a person responsible for their safety.
- Children should be supervised so that they do not play with the
appliance.
Pans (Fig. 3)
- A magnet-attracting pan may be suitable for induction cooking.
- Preferably use pans indicated as being suitable for induction
cooking.
- Flat and thick-bottomed pans.
- A pan with the same diameter as the cooking zone ensures the
maximum power is used.
- A smaller pan reduces the power but will not lead to energy loss.
In any case, we do not recommend the use of pans with a
diameter of less than 10 cm.
- Stainless steel pans with multi-layer or ferritic stainless-steel
bases if the base indicates: for induction cooking.
- If cast iron pans are used, these should preferably have an
enamel bottom to avoid scratching the ceramic hob surface.
- The following types of pans are not suitable: glass, ceramic,
earthenware, aluminium, copper or non-magnetic (austenitic)
stainless steel.
Maintenance (Fig. 4)
Pieces of aluminium foil or food, fat splashes, spilt sugar or highly
sugared foodstuffs should be removed immediately from the
cooking surface using a spatula to avoid scratching the hob
surface. Subsequently clean the surface with a suitable product
and kitchen roll, rinse with water and dry with a clean cloth. Never
use abrasive sponges or scourers and avoid the use of
aggressive chemical detergents or stain removers.
Instructions for the fitter
Installation
These instructions are to be used by the fitter as a guide to
installation, setting and maintenance in line with current
regulations and standards. The appliance must be disconnected
from the mains before any work is carried out.
Installation (Fig. 5)
The appliance is designed for fitting into a worktop, as shown in
the figure.
Place the supplied sealant around the perimeter of the hob.
The hob should not be installed over an oven, although if this is
the case, check that:
- the oven is equipped with an appropriate cooling system
- there is no warm-air leakage from the oven towards the hob.
- suitable air inlets are provided as shown in the figure.

Electrical connection (Fig. 6)
Check the following before the electrical connection is made:
- the installation characteristics are in line with that indicated on
the specifications plate on the base of the hob surface
- the installation is fitted with an efficient earthing connection in
line with current regulations and law. The earth connection is a
legal requirement.
Where the appliance is not supplied with a cable or plug, use
suitable material for the current indicated on the specifications
plate and for the operating temperature. The cable must never
reach a temperature of more than 50 °C above the ambient
temperature.
Fit a device for disconnecting from the mains power supply on the
fixed cable, with a contact separation at all the poles to permit
total disconnection in the event of category III over-voltage, in
accordance with wiring regulations.
The plug or omnipolar switch must be easily accessible when the
appliance is installed.
This appliance is not designed to be used with an external timer
or separate remote control system.
The manufacturers shall not in any way be held responsible in the
event of non-compliance with that indicated above and where
accident prevention regulations are not respected.
To avoid all risk, if the power cable is damaged it must only
be replaced by the manufacturer, by an authorised service
centre or by a qualified electrician.
