Other precautions

• Ensure that each pan is centred on its cooking zone; The pan base
must cover as much of the cooking zone as possible.

• Do not use aluminium or plastic containers: they could melt onto hot
cooking zones.

• The use of incorrect cookware or any induction adaptor plate

designed for non-magnetic cookware is outside the manufacturer’s
specifications so will invalidate the guarantee. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for any damage to the hob or
consequential damages as a result of such use.

FOR THOSE WITH HEART PACEMAKERS OR ACTIVE IMPLANTS:

The function of this hob conforms to current electromagnetic
interference standards and thus is in total compliance with legal
requirements (2004/108/CE directives).

To avoid interference between your hob and a pacemaker, your
pacemaker must be designed and programmed in compliance with
the regulations that apply to it. As such, CDA guarantee only that our
product is compliant.

With regard to the compliance of the pacemaker or any potential

incompatibility, you should obtain information from the manufacturer or
your attending physician.

8

Cooking On Induction

The principle of induction cooking is based on magnetic eect.

When you put your cookware on an induction zone and switch it on,

the electronic boards in the hob produce induced currents in the base
of the cookware and instantly raise its temperature. This heat is then
transferred to the food inside the cookware.

The best cookware to use with induction cooking has thick at bases,

as the heat will be better distributed so cooking more evenly.

Most cookware is compatible with induction cooking. There are three

ways to check the suitability of your cookware:

1. Use a magnet to see if the base of the pan is magnetic: if the

magnet sticks, then the cookware is compatible.

2. Place the pan on one of the cooking zones switched on to power
level 4: If the display remains on, then the cookware is
compatible. If the display ashes, the cookware cannot be used on

an induction hob.

3. Check the instructions or packaging of the pans for the symbols

indicating suitability for use with induction.

IMPORTANT - PLEASE NOTE: In the event of any breakage, crack
or cracking – even minimal – of the vitroceramic glass, immediately
disconnect your appliance to prevent a risk of electric shock and
contact CDA Customer Care.

IMPORTANT:
When correctly installed, your product meets all safety
requirements laid down for this type of product. However, special
care should be taken around the rear or the underneath of the
appliance as these areas are not designed or intended to be
touched and may contain sharp or rough edges that could cause
injury.

Fitting the Hob

Unpacking the hob:

Take care not to lose or mishandle any parts.

Fitting position of the hob:

This appliance must be installed a minimum of 50mm from any
back wall and a minimum of 180mm away from any adjacent vertical
surfaces, e.g. a tall cupboard end panel. This may be reduced to
100mm if the adjacent surface is resistant to fire (tiles or steel, for
example). These dimensions are shown in Fig. 5.

Ventilation requirements:

This appliance must be installed to allow air to ow freely to the air

intake, from the air outlet and in the base and run of units into which

it is installed (Fig 3). Failure to allow sucient ventilation could cause

20

damage to the hob and constitutes incorrect installation, which is not
covered by the warranty.

Notes:

• This could be a simple slot cut out of the plinth, or a dedicated

ventilation grille.

• The furniture top rail should not be fitted to the unit. This allows the

induction hob to exhaust air into the kitchen space.

• The recommended ventilation sizes are for guidance only.

If tting a cooker hood above the hob:

If a cooker hood is to be installed above the hob, the height of
the hood above the hob must be at least 600mm (650mm is
recommended) (Fig. 4). If the instructions supplied with the hood
dictate that the hood must be installed at a height greater than
600mm, then that height is the minimum required.

Wall furniture requirements:

The minimum height of any cabinet immediately above the hob is
900mm. The minimum height of any adjacent units (including light
pelmets) is 400mm, unless they are manufactured from a material
resistant to fire (steel, for example).

Notes:

• Do not position this appliance above a refrigeration unit. The heat

generated may cause the refrigeration unit to fail.

• This appliance is designed to be installed into cabinet units capable

of withstanding temperatures of 65°C or greater above ambient

21

temperature.

• Never place perishable foods, soft items such as tea towels,

cleaning products or ammable items in the cupboard or drawer

below the appliance.

• If an oven is to be installed below the hob, the thermal safety system

on the hob may not allow the hob to be used at the same time as a
pyrolytic programme on the oven.

• The hob is equipped with an anti-overheating safety device that

can be activated if the hob is installed over an oven that is not

suciently ventilated. In the event that this occurs, we recommend

that you increase the ventilation of the hob by creating an opening
in the side of the cabinet (8cm x 5cm).

22

How to Install the Hob:

Overall dimensions of the hob:

Width: 590 mm Depth: 520 mm

Worktop cut-out dimensions:

Width: 560 mm Depth: 490 mm

1. Make the required hole in the
worktop. Before doing this, you must
check the instructions supplied with
any cooker hood to ensure that you
will have the required clearance. The
cut-out (Fig. 5) shows a 60mm gap
from the wall to the cut-out edge.
The distance from the hob, when
fitted, to the back wall is 50mm.

If a splashback/worktop upstand is

to be fitted, take this into account
when cutting the hole. The minimum
distance that the hob should be
positioned away from the rear wall or
splashback is 50mm.

2. Fix the foam seal underneath the
appliance by following the outline of
the worktop upon which the hob will
rest. This ensures an airtight seal with
the worktop. Do not use silicone type
sealant.
