SAFETY
Precautions before using
• Unpack all the materials.
• The installation and connecting of the appliance have to be done
by approved specialists. The manufacturer cannot be responsible
for damage caused by installation or connecting errors.
• To be used, the appliance must be well-equipped and installed in a
kitchen unit and an adapted and approved work surface.
• This domestic appliance is exclusively for the cooking of food, to
the exclusion of any other domestic, commercial or industrial use.
• Remove all labels and self-adhesives from the ceramic glass.
• Do not change or alter the appliance.
• The cooking plate cannot be used as freestanding or as working
surface.
• The appliance must be grounded and connected conforming to
local standards.
• Do not use any extension cable to connect it.
• The appliance cannot be used above a dishwasher or a tumble-
dryer: as steam may cause damage.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of external
timer or separate remote control system.
Using the appliance
• Switch the heating zones off after using.
• WARNING: Unattended cooking on a cooktop with fat or oil
can be dangerous and may result in a fire.
• Be careful not to burn yourself while or after using the appliance.
• Make sure no cable of any fixed or moving appliance contacts with
the glass or the hot saucepan.
• Magnetically objects (credit cards, floppy disks, calculators) should
not be placed near to the engaged appliance.
• Do not place any metallic object on the cooktop except for
pans or cooking utensils. In case of untimely engaging or
residual heat, this one may heat, melt or even burn.
• Never cover the appliance with a cloth or a protection sheet. This
could become very hot and catch fire.

Page 5
• CAUTION: The cooking process has to be supervised. A short
term cooking process has to be supervised continuously.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
• Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids should not
be placed on the cooktop surface since they can get hot.
• Children shall not play with the appliance.
• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
Precautions not to damage the appliance
• Raw pan bottoms or damaged saucepans (not enamelled cast iron
pots,) may damage the ceramic glass.
• Sand or other abrasive materials may damage ceramic glass.
• Avoid dropping objects, even little ones, on the vitroceramic.
• Do not hit the edges of the glass with saucepans.
• Make sure that the ventilation of the appliance works according to
the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to
clean the glass cooktop since they can scratch the surface, which
may result in shattering of the glass.
• Do not put or leave empty saucepans on the vitroceramic cooktops.
• Sugar, synthetic materials or aluminium sheets must not contact
with the heating zones. These may cause breaks or other
alterations of the vitroceramic glass by cooling: switch on the
appliance and take them immediately out of the hot heating zone
(be careful: do not burn yourself).
• WARNING: Danger of fire: do not store items on the cooking
surface.
• Never place any hot container over the control panel.
5
Page 6
• If a drawer is situated under the embedded appliance, make sure
the space between the content of the drawer and the underside of
the appliance is large enough (2cm). This is essential to guarantee
correct ventilation.
• Never put any inflammable object (ex. sprays) into the drawer
situated under the vitroceramic cooktop. All cutlery drawers
must be resistant to heat.
Precautions in case of appliance failure
• If a defect is noticed, switch off the appliance and turn off at the
main electrical supply.
• If the ceramic glass is cracked or fissured, you must unplug the
appliance and contact the after sales service.
• Repairing has to be done by specialists. Do not open the
appliance by yourself.
• WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to
avoid the possibility of electric shock.
Other protections
• Note sure that the container pan is always centred on the cooking
zone. The bottom of the pan must have to cover as much as
possible the cooking zone.
• For the users of pacemaker, the magnetic field could influence its
operating. We recommend getting information from the retailer or
from the doctor.
• Do not to use aluminium or synthetic material containers: they
could melt on still hot cooking zones.
• NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off the
appliance and then cover flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Switch-off the appliance before cleaning.
Do not clean the cooktop if the glass is too hot because they are risk of burn.
• Remove light marks with a damp cloth with washing up liquid diluted in a little water. Then
rinse with cold water and dry the surface thoroughly.
• Highly corrosive or abrasive detergents and cleaning equipment likely to cause scratches must
be absolutely avoided.
• Do not ever use any steam-cleaner or pressure washer.
• Do not use any object that may scratch the ceramic glass.
• Ensure that the pan is dry and clean. Ensure that there are no grains of dust on your ceramic
hob or on the pan. Sliding rough saucepans will scratch the surface.
• Spillages of sugar, jam, jelly, etc. must be removed immediately. You will thus prevent the
surface being damaged.

Stick the gasket (2) two millimetres from
the external edge of the glass, after
removing the protection sheet (3).
The installation comes under the exclusive responsibility of specialists.
The installer is held to respect the legislation and the standards enforce in his home country.
How to stick the gasket:
The gasket supplied with the cooktop avoids all infiltration of liquids in the
cabinet. His installation has to be done carefully, in conformity of the following
drawing.
Fitting - installing:
• The cut out sizes are:
• Ensure that there is a distance of 50 mm between the cooktop and the wall or sides.
• The cooktops are classified as “Y” class for heat protection. Ideally the cooktop should be
installed with plenty of space on either side. There may be a wall at the rear and tall units or
a wall at one side. On the other side, however, no unit or divider must stand higher than
the cooktop.
13
Page 14
• The piece of furniture or the support in which the cooktop is to be fitted, as well as the
edges of furniture, the laminate coatings and the glue used to fix them, must be able
to resist temperatures of up to 100 °C.
• The mural rods of edge must be heat-resisting.
• Not to install the cooktop to the top of a not ventilated oven or a dishwasher.
• To guarantee under the bottom of the cooktop casing a space of 20 mm to ensure a
good air circulation of the electronic device.
• If a drawer is placed under the work, avoid to put into this drawer flammable objects (for
example: sprays) or not heat-resistant objects.
• Materials which are often used to make worktops expand on contact with water. To protect the
cut out edge, apply a coat of varnish or special sealant. Particular care must be given to
applying the adhesive joint supplied with the cooktop to prevent any leakage into the
supporting furniture. This gasket guaranties a correct seal when used in conjunction with
smooth work top surfaces.
• The safety gap between the cooktop and the rangehood placed above must respect
the indications of the hood manufacturer. In case of absence of instructions respect a
distance minimum of 760 mm.
• The connection cord should be subjected, after building, with no mechanical constraint, such
for example of the fact of the drawer.
• WARNING: Use only cooktop guards designed by the manufacturer of the cooking
appliance or indicated by the manufacturer of the appliance in the instructions for use as
suitable or cooktop guards incorporated in the appliance. The use of inappropriate guards can
cause accidents.
