The crossed-out dustbin symbol reported on the appliance indicates that the appliance
must be disposed of separately from other domestic refuse at the end of its useful life.
It must therefore be delivered to a waste recycling centre specifi cally for electric and
electronic equipment or returned to the retailer at the moment of purchase of a new
equivalent appliance.
The user is responsible for delivering the appliance to the appropriate collection centre at the end of its
useful life, failure to do so may result in a fine, as provided for by laws governing waste disposal.
Differential collection of waste products for eventual recycling, treatment and environmentally friendly
disposal helps reduce possible negative effects on the environment and health, and also enables the
materials making up the product to be recycled.
For more detailed information on the available refuse collection systems, refer to the local Municipal Solid

SAFETY AND CARE DIRECTIONS

Correct use.

• To avoid damages to persons and fittings read
carefully this directive before use the hob for the
first time.

• Use the hob after embedding it correctly; it is
important to avoid the contact with electric wire
components.

• The hob is meant to be used only in domestic
background not in the industrial field.

• Use the appliance only to prepare dishes; other
uses at consumer risk, they can be dangerous.
The manufacturer do not answer to damages
caused by an incorrect use of the appliance.

If there are children at home.

• Use controls lock so as the children can not switch
on the hob or modify its setting.

• The appliance must be used only by adults, who
are able to understand the indications on this
directive. Often children can not perceive the
damages of a functioning hob. Keep an eye on the
children carefully.

• Grown-up children can use the appliance only if
they have been educated to use it carefully and
in absolute security and if they know the possible
damages caused by an incorrect usage.

• Do not permit to children to play with the
appliance.

• The hob warms and stays warm for some time
also after the switching off. For this reason
children must be taken far from the appliance to
avoid every scorch risk.

• Take attractive objects far from children and the
hob, because they could lead them to approach
the appliance with consequent scorch risks.

• Make sure that children could not have the
possibility to upset hot pots or pans. Danger of
explosion and fire, in addition with scorch. In the
market there is a special pan support which could
be useful to reduce accident risks.

• Children should be taken far from the packaging,
because some of its components (in plastic or
polystyrene) are dangerous (choking danger).
Provide immediately for the elimination of the
packaging.

Advice to better use the hob.

• Take care not to throw objects or cutlery on the
ceramic surface. Also light objects (i.e. a salt­cellar) might crack or damage the ceramic plate.

• Do not use pots or pans with rough bottom
(i.e. cast iron), because they could scratch the
surface of the hob. Also grains of sand could
cause scratches.

• Make sure that sugar, liquefied or solid, plastic or
silver paper do not be leant on the hot cooking
areas. These materials melt, stick on the surface
and when they cool they can crack, break or
damage permanently the ceramic surface. If
these substances inadvertently reach the hot
cooking areas, switch off the hob and eliminate
them with a spatula as soon as possible, when
the appliance is already hot. Attention: since

the cooking areas are very hot there is the
possibility to scald yourself.

• To avoid a risk of dishes remains burning, get rid
of them immediately in case they overflowed in
the surface during the cooking; make sure that
the pot bottom is not grease, but clean and dry
before leaning it on the hob.

• Never use vapour devices. The vapour
pressure could damage permanently surfaces
and components of devices, for which the
manufacturer will not be responsible.

• Never lean too hot pots or pans on the control
panel. The electronics situated under the panel
could be damaged.

• If under the embedded appliance there is a

drawer, take care of that the distance between
the drawer, and so its content, and the lower
side of the appliance is enough. On the
contrary the aerification of the hob is not
warranted.

To avoid burns.

• When functioning the appliance is too hot and
maintains the temperature for some minutes
after the switching off. Only when the afterheat
lights go off there is no more danger of burns.
Pay attention to children at home, they must not
approach the still hot hob.

• Always use the proper knobs or pot holders to
move or to put pots and pans on the hob. The
knobs and pot holders material must not be wet
or damp. The dampness increases the heat
conductivity and so the risks of burns.

• Do not heat closed vessels, i.e. tin vessels, on
the cooking areas. The resulting overpressure
could cause the explosion of this material. Burn
and hurt danger.

• Do not use the appliance as a rest surface and
in particular do not lean on metallic objects. If the
hob is unintentionally switch on or if the cooking

SAFETY AND CARE DIRECTIONS

• areas afterheat is already functioning there is
the risk that the resting object, depending on its
material, heats (burn danger), start melting or
burning.

• Do not cover the hob with a cloth or a protective
film. The hob could be hot; burning danger.

• Stay near the hob when using fats and oils
because when they overheat, they can start
burning and ignite also the cooker hood. Fire
danger.

• If fats and oils used to cook start burning, do not
try to extinguish the fire with water. Smother the
fire with a blanket or an extinguisher.

• Do not cook flambè dishes under the cooker
hood. Flames could reach the cooker hood and
burn it.

If there is a faulty appliance.

• If the cosumer finds an anomaly in the appliance,
disconnect the electricity of the hob. If the
appliance is not definitively setted and linked
up, detach also the stoker wire from the electric
system. For this purpose do not hold the wire but
the plug, if present. Call the technical assistance.
Pay attention not no connect the appliance to the
electrical system before repairing it.

• If there are cracks on the ceramic surface,
disconnect the electricity of the appliance.
Electrical shock danger.

• Repairs have to be made only by skilled and

authorized staff. Uncorrect repairs could
be cause of danger and further damage
the appliance. Never undo the appliance
wrapping.

• Repairs on the appliance during the warranty
period can be done only by the firm technical
assistance, otherwise the consumer will not have
the right of calling for the following damages.

The main sheathing could be damaged. Electrical
shock danger.

• Warm sufficiently the dishes. Germs present in
the food are eliminated only at high temperature
and in a long period of time.

• Do not use plastic or tin foil dishes. High
temperature could melt these materials. Fire
danger.

• Do not approach to the functioning hob magnetic
objects like credit cards, floppy disks, calculators.
Their functions could be compromised.

• Do not put canisters, liquids or other flammable
materials in drawers under the appliance. The
drawer’s cutlery tray, if present, should be in heat
resistant material.

Further damages.

• Only for pacemaker carrier: to consider

that near the functioning appliance there
is a electromagnetic field, which could
compromise the pacemaker performance.
For doubts regarding the pacemaker apply its
producer or the doctor.

• Take care of positioning the dishes in the centre
of the cooking area, so that the pot’s backside
can cover all the electromagnetic field.

• Using a socker near the appliance, make sure
that the supply wire do not touch the hot hob.
