ENERGY SAVING TIPS

Make the most of your hot plate’s residual heat by switching it o a few
minutes before you nish cooking.
The base of your pot or pan should cover the hot plate completely; a
container that is smaller than the hot pl ate will cause ener gy to be wasted.
Cover your pots and pans with tight-tting lids while cooking and use
as little water as possible. Cooking with the lid o will greatly increase
energy consumption.
Use only at-bottomed pots and pans.

INSTALLATION

• The cooktop must be set into a worktop between 20 mm and 50 mm deep.

• There must be nothing between the cooktop and the oven (cross rails, brackets, etc.).

• The distance between the lower face of the glass ceramic hob and the cupboard or separating

panel must be at least 20 mm.

• If the cooktop is to be installed next to a column unit, leave a distance of at least 100 mm from
the edge of the cooktop to the side of the column unit.

• For built-in dimensions and installation see the picture in this paragraph.

• A minimum distance must be maintained between the hob and the hood above it. Please refer to the

user manual of the hood for more informations.

• Apply the supplied gasket to the cooktop (unless it has already been tted), after having cleaned its surface.

• Do not install the cooktop near a dishwasher or washing machine, so that the electronic circuits do not come into contact with steam
or moisture, which could damage them.

• If an oven (from our range of ovens) is installed beneath the cooktop, make sure that it is equipped with a cooling system. If the temperature
of the electronic circuits exceeds the maximum permitted temperature, the cooktop will switch o automatically; in this case, wait for a few
minutes until the internal temperature of the electronic circuits reaches a tolerable level, at which point it will be possible to switch the hob on
again.

PLACING THE HOB

After the electrical connection (see the chapter “Electrical connection”).Position each xing clips on the dedicated slots on the lateral sides of the
hob as shown in the picture. Then push the hob inside the cut out and check that the glass is at and parallel to the worktop. The xing clips are
designed for every type of worktop material (wood, marble, etc).
