Please keep to the following points most carefully :
PPPPaaaarrrrtttt 1111:::: FFFFoooorrrr tttthhhheeee iiiinnnnssssttttaaaalllllllleeeerr
rr
The hob should not be fitted above a washing
machine, a fridge or a freezer.
Wall surfaces above the work surface and in the immediate vicinity of the cooking hob must be heat resistant.
Laminated surfaces and the adhesive used for fixing them must be heat resistant in order to avoid any damage.
Protection of cut-outs:
The chipboard used for work surfaces swells relatively quickly when in contact with dampness.
Apply a varnish or a special glue to the edges of the cut-out to protect them from dampness or condensation which may occur underneath the work surface underneath the table.
Protection against overheating - type Y -
to CEI 335-2-6.
Cut a hole in the work surface to the required size. The measurement of at least 40 mm should be measured from the wall and the sides (rear and/or sides).
The cooking hob should be fitted into the top surface of a unit at least 3 cm thick, in heat-resistant material or surfaced with heat-resistant material.
To fix the hob, use the fasteners which you will find in the wallet .
Stick the seal under the hob to ensure a watertight seal between the hob and the work surface (see fig. below).

FITTING SHOULD NORMALLY ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED FITTER OR TECHNICIAN.

Do not touch the corresponding heating zones - you could be burned.
After a prolonged power failure, there may be a display on the control panel; this will go out as soon as any key is touched. The cooking zones may nevertheless still be very hot.
Thermal cutout device
The indicator displays E :
To avoid any risk of damage in certain cases of intensive use, the security device will limit the operation of your hob. When the display goes out (approx. 30 mins.), you will be able to use your hob once more.
Security device on the controls
If a pan (or anything else) covers the keys for more than 10 seconds, the power supply to the cooking zones may cut out.
Note
When your hob is first connected, a display may appear on the control panel. This will go out of its own accord after 30 seconds or after touching any of the controls. This is quite normal; if necessary, it provides information for your After-Sales Service. The user of the hob should disregard it.

If sugar, jam, jelly, etc boils over, the spills should be scraped off the hot cooking zone immediately to prevent damage to the surface of the hob.
Use pans designed for use on an electric cooker.
Use pans with flat bases which remain in contact with the surface of the ring:
- in stainless steel with a thick three-ply or "sandwich" base.
AACCCCEESSSSOORRIIEESS

The vitro-ceramic surface is very tough, but it is not unbreakable; don't bang pans down onto it.
Pan bases which are very rough may trap and carry substances which may mark or scratch the hob.
Avoid friction; over a period of time, this may damage the pattern on the vitro-ceramic top.
As these faults do not stop the hob working or render it unfit for use, they are not covered by the guarantee.
Nothing should ever be left lying on the hob.
Do not store

the unit underneath your cooking hob.
When plugging electric appliances into sockets near the hob, make sure that the flex does not come into contact with a heating zone.
It is not a good idea to leave an empty pan on a heating zone.
Pans should be placed in the centre of the heating zone.
Never heat up a sealed tin of food, as it may explode. This of course applies to all cooking methods.
CCOOOOKKIINNGG TTIIPPSS FFOORR UUSSIINNGG TTHHEE VVIITTRROO--CCEERRAAMMIICC HHEEAATTIINNGG ZZOONNEE
Never leave a pan containing hot oil or fat on any of the cooking zones without supervision.
Don't put any plastic items or aluminium foil on the cooking surfaces while they are still hot.
You will obtain the best result by using a pan with a diameter close to the size of the ring marked on the glass top.
Wipe the outside base of the pan before using it on the vitro-radiant heating zone.
Automatic adjustment of rings:
The radiant ring adjusts itself automatically,it comes
on and goes off in order to maintain the power selected. Thus the temperature remains constantly suited to the food you are cooking.
Lastly, the frequency of adjustment varies according to the power selected.

Cooking tips
Green vegetables (spinach, broccoli, sorrel, etc) or vege­tables rich in sulphur compounds (cabbage, onions, etc) should be cooked without a lid in plenty of boiling water; they will cook more quickly, and will keep their green colour (some vegetables only), vitamin and minerals content.
Pasta, rice, cereals, etc absorb water during cooking and increase in volume; cook them in plenty of boiling salted water in order to dilute the starch they contain. Make sure you use a sufficiently large pan to avoid boiling over; cook without a lid (there is a risk of foaming and therefore of the pan boiling over).
Mushrooms should be poached in a small quantity of boiling water, with salt, butter and lemon juice.
Hints
As soon as the water boils, turn the cooking zones down to a lower setting; this will help prevent pans boiling over.
Whenever possible, use a lid on saucepans; this will help save energy.
-12-
Looking after your pans
Stainless steel pans :
Appearance of white marks
: Cause : salt added to cold water. Solution : add salt when the water boils.
Appearance of specks : Cause : hard water. Solution : boil diluted vinegar in the pan, then rinse and dry.
Abrasive products should never be used on stainless steel pans. They should be washed with a sponge.
Burned food stuck to the bottom of the pan
: Cause : temperature too high. Solution : leave the pan to soak, or boil soapy water in it (1 part washing-up liquid to 10 parts of water).
____________
Cast-iron pans should only be cleaned with a sponge or nylon brush or a non-abrasive washing-up product. If marks remain on the base, don't try to rub them off; boil a litre of water plus a glassful of bleach in the pan. Wipe with a little vinegar to regain the pan's shine. This also works for colour-enamelled cast iron. For "matt black" items, use vinegar instead of bleach, then oil carefully and wipe with kitchen roll.
____________
Cooking will be a pleasure if you stick to a few rules and
look after your hob.

Should a crack appear in the surface of the glass, disconnect the appliance from the

Do not use any part of the hob before the vitro-ceramic top has been changed.

When cooking, never use kitchen foil and never put items wrapped in kitchen foil straight
onto the hob.
The aluminium would melt and do irreparable damage to your appliance.
CCOOOOKKIINNGG GGUUIIDDEE FFOORR UUSSIINNGG TTHHEE IHEEAATTIINNGG ZZOONNEE
A higher setting is needed when :
- your pan contains a large quantity of food;
- there is no lid on the pan;
- you use a glass or ceramic pan.
A lower setting is needed when :
- you are cooking foods which tend to burn easily (start on a lower setting than the one shown in the table below - you can increase the setting subsequently if necessary);
- the pan boils over (take the lid off or remove the pan, then turn the setting down).
Energy saving :
To finish cooking, press the "stop" control and leave the pan on the hob to make use of the residual heat (thereby saving energy). Use a lid as often as possible in order to reduce heat lost by evaporation.
To obtain full satisfaction, follow the examples in the guide above, bearing in mind that settings 9 and 8 are maximum positions
and should only be used for deep frying and bringing up to the boil quickly.
