SAFETY

Precautions before usage

 Unpack all the materials.
 The installation and connection 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.

 The appliance must be installed in a kitchen unit and in 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 surface 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.

Using the appliance

 Switch the heating zones off after using.
 Keep an eye on preparations 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.

 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 instructions concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.

 Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Precautions to prevent damage to 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).

 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.

Precautions in case of appliance failure

 If a defect is noticed, switch off the appliance and turn off the electrical supplying.
 If the ceramic glass is cracked or fissured, you must unplug the appliance and contact the

after sales service.

 Repairing has to be done by specialists. Do not open the appliance by yourself.
 WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the possibility of

electric shock.

Other precautions

 Make sure that the container pan is always centred on the cooking zone. The bottom of

the pan must have to cover as much as possible the cooking zone.

 For the users of pacemaker, the magnetic field could influence its operating. We

recommend getting information to the retailer or of the doctor.

 Do not use aluminium or synthetic material containers: they could melt on still hot cooking

zones.

DO NOT USE INTERMEDIATE REMOVABLE ACCESSORIES TO HEAT

PANS WHICH ARE NOT ADAPTED TO INDUCTION.

RISKS OF BURNS AND DETERIORATION OF THE HOB.
