SAFETY
Precautions before using
Unpack all the materials.
The installation and connecting of the appliance have to be
done by approved specialists. The manufacturer can not be
responsible for damage caused by building-in or connecting
errors.
To be used, the appliance must be well-equipped and installed
in a kitchen unit and an adapted and approved work surface.
This domestic appliance is exclusively for the cooking of food,
to the exclusion of any other domestic, commercial or industrial
use.
Remove all labels and self-adhesives from the ceramic glass.
Do not change or alter the appliance.
The cooking plate can not be used as freestanding or as
working surface.
The appliance must be grounded and connected conforming to
local standards.
Do not use any extension cable to connect it.
The appliance can not be used above a dishwasher or a
tumble-dryer: steam may damage the electronic appliances.
This 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 using.
Keep an eye on the cooking using grease or oils: that may
quickly ignite.
Be careful not to burn yourself while or after using the
appliance.
Make sure no cable of any fixed or moving appliance contacts
with the glass or the hot saucepan.
Magnetically objects (credit cards, floppy disks, calculators)
should not be placed near to the engaged appliance.
Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids should
not be placed on the hob surface since they can get hot.
4
In general do not place any metallic object except heating
containers on the glass surface. In case of untimely engaging or
residual heat, this one may heat, melt or even burn.
Never cover the appliance with a cloth or a protection sheet.
This is supposed to 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.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
Precautions not to damage the appliance
Raw pan bottoms or damaged saucepans (not enamelled cast
iron pots,) may damage the 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 works according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not put or leave empty saucepans on the vitroceramic hobs.
Sugar, synthetic materials or aluminium sheets must not
contact with the heating zones. These may cause breaks or
other alterations of the vitroceramic glass by cooling: switch on
the appliance and take them immediately out of the hot heating
zone (be careful: do not 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 embedded appliance, make
sure the space between the content of the drawer and the
inferior part of the appliance is large enough (2 cm). This is
essential to guaranty a correct ventilation.
Never put any inflammable object (ex. sprays) into the drawer
situated under the vitroceramic hob. The eventual cutlery
drawers must be resistant to heat.
