CE Declarations of Conformity

This appliance has been manufactured to the strictest standards and complies with all applicable legislation, including

Electrical safety (LVD) 2006/95/EC and Electromagnetic interference compatibility (EMC) 2004/108/EC. Parts

intended to come into contact with food conform to 89/109/EC.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF THE PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH EC

DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC.

At the end of its working life, the product must be taken to a special local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer

providing appliance recycling services.

Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health. It also

enables the constituent materials to be recovered, saving both energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of

household appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.

Please note:

• Induction hobs become hot and remain hot during and immediately after use. Do not touch the hob until it has

been allowed to cool.

• Keep children away from the appliance when in use.

• Never use the hob top for storage.

• Pan handles should never stand out beyond the edge of the worktop. This will ensure children cannot reach them.

• Do not lean over the hob when it is in use.

• Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.

• Ensure the base of the saucepan is clean and dry before placing it on the hob.

• Avoid hard shocks from cookware – the vitroceramic glass surface is highly resistant but not unbreakable.

• Do not place hot lids flat on the hob top. A “suction” effect could cause damage to the hob.

• Do not drag cookware across the hob top: in the long term, this could cause damage to the hob.

• Do not store cleaning or flammable products in the unit below the hob.

• Always use appropriate cookware.

• Do not cook unopened tins of food directly on the hob.

• Never put cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface when the hob is hot. These materials could melt

and cause damage to the hob.

• This hob (Class 3) has been designed for use only as a cooking appliance. Any other use should be considered

incorrect and therefore dangerous.

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.

Important

• Do not use the hob if the glass surface is cracked or damaged to prevent the risk of electric shock. Disconnect it

from the power supply.

• Ensure that the power cable of a connected electrical appliance near the hob is not in contact with the

cooking zones.

Cooking on Induction

The principle of induction cooking is based on magnetic effect.

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 flat 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. Using a magnet to see if the base of the pan is magnetic: if three 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 flashes, 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.
