SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - RECOMMENDATIONS
• It is strongly recommended to keep children away from the cooking zones while they
are in operation or when they are switched off, so long as the residual heat indicator is
on, in order to prevent the risks of serious burns.
• When cooking with fats or oils, take care always to watch the cooking process as
heated fats and oils can catch fire rapidly.
• Aluminium foil and plastic containers must not be placed on the hot surfaces.
• The cooking heat zone equipping the ceramic hob gives off a strong light, do not stare
at the heat source lamps.
• After every use, some cleaning of the top is necessary to prevent the build up of dirt
and grease. If left, this is recooked when the hob is used and burns giving off smoke
and unpleasant smells, not to mention the risks of fire propagation.
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY TO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR HOB. We recommend you keep
the instructions for installation and use for later reference, and before installing the hob,
note its serial number below in case you need to get help from the after sales service.
. Identification plate (located under the hob’s bottom casing)
• The hob’s control area is sensitive, do not place hot containers on it.
• Never cook directly on the hob surface, use pots and pans.
• Always centre the pan well on the cooking zone used.
• Do not use the hob surface as a cutting board, or work top.
• Do not slide pans on the hob: risk of scratching.
• Do not store heavy objects above the hob, they can fall and damage it.
• Do not store any objects whatever on the hob.
• In the unlikely event of a crack appearing on the glass, immediately disconnect the unit
from the mains and contact the after-sales service directly.

The high light cooking zone
A metal conducting strip is uniformly distributed over the entire surface area of the
cooking zone. Effective in three seconds and is for regular uniform cooking, but also
sustained cooking.
CHOOSING UTENSILS
Y ou should use high quality utensils to obt ain good cooking result s:
• Use high quality utensils with flat and thick bottoms: a very flat bottom eliminates
hot spots causing food to stick, and the thickness of the metal gives excellent heat
distribution.
• Make sure that utensil bottoms are dry: when you fill the container or use a pan
straight out of the fridge, for example, make sure that it is dry; this check will stop any dirt
getting on the cooking surface.
• Use pans big enough to fully cover the heat source: it is best to make sure that
the bottom is at least as large as the cooking zone. If the bottom is slightly larger, the
energy is used most efficiently .

CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB
• It is important to wait for the ceramic hob surface to cool completely before cleaning it.
• Only use special products for cleaning ceramic surfaces, cream and scraper . You can
find them easily in the shops.
• A void spills; messes that fall onto the cooking surface burn fast and are then harder to
clean off.
• It is recommended to keep away from the cooking surface anything likely to melt like
plastic articles, sugar or products with a high sugar content.
CLEANING:
. Sprinkle a few drops of special ceramic surface cleaner.
. Rub, working hard on any stained parts, using slightly damp soft cloth or kitchen roll.
. Rinse if necessary .
. Wipe with dry soft cloth or kitchen roll until the surface is clean.
