• The cooking plate cannot be used as freestanding unit or as a working surface.

• The appliance must be grounded and connected in compliance with local standards.

• Do not use any extension cable to connect the cooktop.

• The appliance cannot be used above a dishwasher or a tumble dryer: steam may damage the electronic appliances.

• 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 use.

• Keep an eye on the cooktop when cooking with grease or oils as they may quickly ignite.

• Magnetic objects (credit cards, ﬂoppy disks, calculators) should not be placed near the appliance when in use.

• Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the cooktop surface as they can get hot.

• In general, do not place any metallic object except heating containers on the glass surface. In case of untimely activation or residual heat, they may heat, melt or even burn.

• Never cover the appliance with a cloth or a protection sheet. This may become very hot and catch ﬁre.

• 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.

SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS NOT TO DAMAGE THE APPLIANCE

• Raw pan bottoms or damaged saucepans (not enameled cast iron pots) may damage 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 is in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

• Do not put or leave empty saucepans on the vitroceramic cooktops.

• Sugar, synthetic materials or aluminum sheets must not come into contact with the heating zones. These may break or damage the vitroceramic glass when cooling: switch on the appliance and take them immediately out of the hot heating zone (be careful not to burn yourself).

• WARNING: Danger of ﬁre: do not store items on the cooking surface.

• Never place any hot container over the control panel.

• If a drawer is situated under the installed appliance, make sure the space between the contents of the drawer and the base of the appliance is large: at least (2 cm). This is essential to guarantee correct ventilation.

• Do not install the cooktop to the top of a non ventilated oven or dishwasher.

• The underside of the cooktop requires a clearance of 20mm from the under side of the induction unit to ensure good air circulation of the electronic device.

• If a drawer is placed under the unit, do not put ﬂammable objects (for examples sprays) or non heat resistant objects inside.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: CONNECTION OF THE APPLIANCE TO THE GAS SUPPLY MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF ASNZ5601. A ½ INCH

BSP CONNECTION AT THE INLET IS RECOMMENDED AND THE GAS SUPPLY LINE TO THE APPLIANCE MUST BE OF ADEQUATE LENGTH TO ALLOW SUFFICIENT WITHDRAWAL OF APPLIANCE FOR SERVICE

OR DISCONNECTION.

CONNECT USING ANNEALED COPPER PIPE OR A FLEXIBLE HOSE CAN BE USED PROVIDING THAT:

• Assembly acceptable by the local authority and complying with requirements of AS1869, Class B and ASNZ5601

• Length of hose is kept to a minimum.

• The hose connection starts below the protective barrier (where required) installed 60 mm below the appliance.

• The hose is not subject to kinking abrasion or sharp edges.

NOTE: THE COOKER MUST BE INSTALLED WITH PROVISION TO ALLOW THE GAS TO BE TURNED OFF AND DISCONNECTED FOR SERVICING AND REMOVAL

1. For the LP Gas model the gas supply must be regulated to 2.75kPa; for Natural Gas regulated to 1kPa . A manual shut oﬀ valve must be installed in the gas supply line in an accessible position so that gas supply can be turned oﬀ in an emergency or for service. The cooktop data plate gives details of injector sizes and gas rates.

2. After installing the gas supply ensure that all gas controls are in the oﬀ position , then check all connections thoroughly for leaks

3. Plug the electrical connection in.

Turn each gas control on and adjust to obtain a clear blue ﬂame with no yellow tipping. For adjustments refer to the attached servicing instructions. The ﬁrst time you ignite the burners they may not ignite immediately. This is due to air in the gas lines that should clear within a few seconds. If satisfactory performance cannot be obtained contact the local gas authority for advice and assistance. Fill in the warranty model details in this book taking information from the data plate where necessary. Instruct the owner in safe operation of the appliance and ensure that these instructions are left with the appliance.
