! 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.
• Depending on the hob you want to install, the
cabinet must have the following dimensions (see gure):

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.
• 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 600 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 length of the screws for
should be taken
the fixing hooks:
• 30 mm thick: 17.5 mm screws
• 40 mm thick: 7.5 mm screws
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.
3. For hobs with raised sides: After inserting the hob
into its cavity, insert the 4 fixing hooks (each has its
own pin) into the lower edges of the hob, using the
long pointed screws to fix them in place, until the glass
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.

• 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.

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.
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply,
make sure that:
• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant
with the law.
! 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.

Start-up and use
GB
! 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 nonabrasive 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.
! If the - or + button is pressed for an extended
period of time, the display scrolls quickly though the
power levels and timer minutes.

Heating elements
Two types of heating element may be installed,
depending on the appliance model: halogen and
radiant elements.
Halogen elements emit heat via radiation from the
halogen lamps they contain.
They have similar properties to gas burners: they are
easy to control and reach set temperatures quickly,
allowing you to see the power level instantly.
Radiant elements consist of a series of coils which
allow heat to be distributed evenly at the base of
the cookware, so that all slow-flame cooking may be
performed successfully, for example stews, sauces or
reheated dishes.

To obtain the best results from your hob:
• Use pans with a thick, flat base in order to fully
utilise the cooking zone.

• Always use pans with a diameter which is large
enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all
the available heat.
• Make sure that the base of the cookware is always
clean and dry, in order to fully utilise and extend the
life of both the cooking zones and the cookware.
• Avoid using the same cookware which has been
used on gas burners: the heat concentration on gas
burners may distort the base of the pan, causing it
not to adhere correctly.
