Installation

The control panel described in this manual is only a representative example: it may not exactly match the panelon your appliance.

When using the touch control pannel panel: Do not use gloves Use a clean finger Touch the glass smoothly

1 INCREASE POWER/ TIME button - controls the power

and time

2 REDUCE POWER/ TIME button controls the power

and time.

3 COOKING ZONE SELECTOR button is used to select

the desired cooking zone 4 ON/OFF button switches the appliance on and off. 5 CONTROL PANEL LOCK button prevents accidental

changes to the hob settings and shows the control

panel has been locked. 6 HEATER DISPLAY -shows the cooking zone selected,

power level, preset time of cooking, booster funcition

activated.

! For detailed information on the control panel functions refer to “Start-up and use” section.

! This product complies with the requirements of the latest European Directive on the limitation of power consumption of the standby mode. If no operations are carried out for a period of 2 minutes, after the residual heat indicator lights turn off and the fan stops (if present), the appliance automatically switches to the .off mode.. The appliance resumes the operating mode once the ON/OFF button is pressed.

! Depending on the number of heaters/cooking zones on the hob the COOKING ZONE SELECTOR BUTTONS may vary between and

! Before operating your new appliance please read

this instruction booklet carefully. It contains important information concerning the safe operation, installation and maintenance of the appliance.

! Please keep these operating instructions for future

reference. Pass them on to any new owners of the appliance.

Positioning

! Keep all packaging material out of the reach of children.

It may present a choking or suffocation hazard (see Precautions and tips).

! The appliance must be installed by a qualified

professional in accordance with the instructions provided. Incorrect installation may cause harm to people and animals or may damage property.

Built-in appliance

Use a suitable cabinet to ensure that the appliance functions properly.

• The supporting surface must be heat-resistant up to a temperature of approximately 100°C.

• If the appliance is to be installed above an oven, the oven must be equipped with a forced ventilation cooling system.

• Avoid installing the hob above a dishwasher: if this cannot be avoided, place a waterproof separation device between the two appliances.

Ventilation

To allow adequate ventilation and to avoid overheating of the surrounding surfaces the hob should be positioned as follows:

• At a minimum distance of 40 mm from the back panel or any other vertical surfaces.

• So that a minimum distance of 20 mm is maintained between the installation cavity and the cabinet underneath.

• Kitchen cabinets adjacent to the appliance and taller than the top of the hob must be at least 450 mm from the edge of the hob.

Fixing

The appliance must be installed on a perfectly level

supporting surface. Any deformities caused by improper fixing could affect the features and operation of the hob. The thickness of the supporting surface

into account when choosing

the fixing hooks:

• 3,5 mm thick: 9,5 mm screws

the length of the screws for

should be taken

Fix the hob as follows:

1. Use short flat-bottomed screws to fix the 4 alignment springs in the holes provided at the central point of each side of the hob.

2. Place the hob in the cavity, make sure it is in a central position and push down on the whole perimeter until the hob is stuck to the supporting surface.

! The screws for the alignment springs must remain

accessible.

! In order to adhere to safety standards, the appliance

must not come into contact with electrical parts once it has been installed.

! All parts which ensure the safe operation of the

appliance must not be removable without the aid of a tool.

Electrical connection

! The electrical connection for the hob and for any built-

in oven must be carried out separately, both for safety purposes and to make extracting the oven easier.

Single-phase connection

The hob is equipped with a pre-connected electricity supply cable, which is designed for single-phase connection. Connect the wires in accordance with the instructions given in the following table and diagrams:

Other types of connection

If the mains supply corresponds with one of the following:

Voltage and mains frequency

• 400V - 2+N ~ 50/60 Hz

• 220-240V 3 ~ 50/60 Hz Separate the wires and connect them in accordance with the instructions given in the following table and diagrams:

Connecting the electricity supply cable to the mains

If the appliance is being connected directly to the electricity mains an omnipolar switch must be installed with a minimum opening of 3 mm between contacts.

! The installer must ensure that the correct electrical

connection has been made and that it is fully compliant with safety regulations.

Start-up and use

• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the appliance itself.

• The voltage falls within the range of values indicated on the data plate.

• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it. Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply

cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.

! The cable must not be bent or compressed. ! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by

authorised technicians only.

! The manufacturer declines any liability should these

safety measures not be observed.

! Do not remove or replace the power supply cable for any reason. Its removal or replacement will void the warranty and the CE marking. INDESIT does not assume liability for accidents or damage arising from replacement/removal of the original power supply cable. Replacement can only be accepted when carried out by personnel authorised by INDESIT and using an original spare part.

! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease

on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

! A few seconds after the hob is connected to the electricity

supply, a buzzer will sound. The hob may now be switched on.

Types of noise during normal hob operation:

• Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that make up the induction element and the pot; it is generated by the electromagnetic field required for heating and increases as the power of the induction element increases.

• Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the heating zone is empty; the noise disappears once food or water is placed into the pot.

• Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on the bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be more or less intense depending on the material making up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot dimensions increase.

• Loud whistle: heard when two induction elements of the same group function simultaneously at maximum power and/or when the booster function is set on the larger element while the other is auto-adjusted. Noise is reduced by decreasing the power level of the autoadjusted induction element; pot bottom layers made of different kinds of materials are among the main causes of this noise.
