SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 Installation
WARNING!
Only a qualified person must install this appliance.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appli-
ance.
• Obey the installation instruction sup-
plied with the appliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from the
other appliances and units.
• Always be careful when you move the
appliance because it is heavy. Always
wear safety gloves.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to
prevent moisture to cause swelling.
• Protect the bottom of the appliance
from steam and moisture.
• Do not install the appliance adjacent to
a door or under a window. This prevents hot cookware to fall from the appliance when the door or the window is
opened.
• If the appliance is installed above draw-
ers make sure that the space, between
the bottom of the appliance and the up-
per drawer, is sufficient for air circulation.
• Make sure that the ventilation space of
2 mm, between the worktop and the
front of the below unit, is free. The warranty does not cover damages caused
by the lack of an adequate ventilation
space.
• The bottom of the appliance can get
hot. We recommend to install a noncombustile separation panel under the
appliance to prevent access to the bottom.
Electrical connection
WARNING!
Risk of fire and electrical shock.
• All electrical connections must be made
by a qualified electrician.
• The appliance must be earthed.
• Before carrying out any operation make
sure that the appliance is disconnected
from the power supply.
• Use the correct electricity mains cable.
• Do not let the electricity mains cable
tangle.

applicable) does not touch the hot ap-
Page 5
pliance or hot cookware, when you
connect the appliance to the near sockets
• Make sure the appliance is installed
correctly. Loose and incorrect electricity
mains cable or plug (if applicable) can
make the terminal become too hot.
• Make sure that a shock protection is installed.
• Use the strain relief clamp on cable.
• Make sure not to cause damage to the
mains plug (if applicable) or to the
mains cable. Contact the Service or an
electrician to change a damaged mains
cable.
• The electrical installation must have an
isolation device which lets you disconnect the appliance from the mains at all
poles. The isolation device must have a
contact opening width of minimum 3
mm.
• Use only correct isolation devices: line
protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type
fuses removed from the holder), earth
leakage trips and contactors.

INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
For induction cooking zones a strong
electro-magnetic field creates the heat in
the cookware very quickly.
. It
5.1 Cookware for induction
cooking zones
Use the induction cooking zones
with correct cookware.
Page 9
Cookware material
• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, the bottom made
of multi-layer (with correct mark from a
manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if …
• ... some water boils very quickly on a
zone set to the highest heat setting.
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of
the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as possible.
Cookware dimensions: induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the
bottom of the cookware automatically to
some limit.
5.3 Energy saving
How to save energy
• If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food
warm or to melt it.
The cooking zone efficiency
The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a smaller diameter than the
minimum receives only a part of the power generated by the cooking zone. For the
minimum diameters see the Technical Information chapter.
5.4 The Examples of cooking
5.2 The noises during operation
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use one or more
cooking zones with high power levels
and the cookware is made of different
materials (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer to appliance malfunction.

applications
The relation between the heat setting and
the cooking zone consumption of power
is not linear.
When you increase the heat setting it is
not proportional to the increase of the
cooking zone consumption of power.
It means that the cooking zone with the
medium heat setting uses less than a half
of its power.

special scraper for the glass . Put
the scraper on the glass surface at
an acute angle and move the blade
on the surface .
Remove after the appliance is
–
sufficiently cool: limescale rings ,
water rings, fat stains, shiny metallic discolorations. Use a special
cleaning agent for glass ceramic or
stainless steel.
2.
