INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
4 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
4.1 General information
This appliance must only be used for its expressly intended purpose for cooking or heating food. Any other
use is considered improper. The appliance is also intended for industrial use and must only be used by
personnel trained for use and aware of the risks that the hot element entails.
Warning
The appliance operates at high temperatures, so the following is necessary:
· Pay attention to the areas surrounding the hot surface during routine normal operation
(danger of scalding);
· RISK OF BURNS Do not touch hot surfaces floor with your hands or other parts of the body
to avoid burns caused by high temperatures;
· After switching off the appliance, wait for a sufficient time for it to cool before carrying out
any cleaning or maintenance operation.
4.2 Induction cooker hobs
What is induction cooking?
The basic principle of induction cooking is very simple. When the pan is placed on the glass ceramic surface
of the hob, it enters in a magnetic field generated by an induction system. The iron base of the pot heats up
quickly as the molecules are "rubbed" together, which creates heat. The speed and intensity of the heat are
regulated by controlling the magnetic field
Why select induction?
· For the safety, there are no flames or sources of heat that can create hazards when the pot is removed
from the cooking hob. The hob turns off automatically as soon as the pot is removed
· For the speed, the heat is generated inside the pot itself, which makes it heat up immediately. For the
same reason, the temperature is adjusted immediately in comparison to cooking with gas
· For the efficiency, in comparison with other types of cooking, induction has a very high energy yield,
around 85%. This cooking system also makes the surrounding environment healthy and fresh as the heat
is not dispersed as for other types of cooking appliances

5 MAINTENANCE
5.1 Routine
When using the appliance over time, it is essential to perform regular maintenance to ensure safe operation.
We therefore recommend stipulating a service contract.
Caution
Maintenance must only be performed by specialist personnel in compliance with current
Before carrying out any maintenance and/or cleaning operation:
· Disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply and/or close the gas.
· Wait for a sufficient time for the appliance to cool down.
· Do not wash the appliance with direct or high-pressure jets of water, since any infiltration of water into the
Replacing parts must exclusively be performed by authorised and/or qualified personnel. When replacing the
electrical components of the machine and the electrical panels, scrupulously follow the technical
characteristics for the replacement component indicated on the component itself. The appliance does not
require any special maintenance but during the use of the equipment it is advisable to check the following at
least once a year (possibly increasing the frequency depending on the degree of use):
· The status of connections especially on the terminal board and the power supply cable, as well as the
· The operating condition of the various components (perform a functional test);
· For appliances fitted with rotary resistances, remove the hub, grease it and replace the three o-ring seals

MAINTENANCE
· Connect the wires to the terminal block marked "E" inside MOD1
The following terminal allocation appears:
The earth connection terminal is clearly marked inside the generator
The phase sequence is arbitrary but it is recommended to use the suggestion shown in the photo above.
Connecting the Bus
Proceed as follows to connect a MOD1 generator to the bus system:
· Make sure the power supply is switched off
· Remove the 2 screws marked "A". Slacken the 2 screws marked "B" by 3 turns
· Remove the cover plate "C"
37
Translation of the original instructions
Page 38
MAINTENANCE
· Insert the bus cables with cable glands including the seals into the holes marked "D" inside the cover
plate. Tighten the nuts from the other side (tightening torque 3 Nm). Make sure the gasket is positioned
correctly (see photo below)
· Connect the bus cables to the jacks marked "F" inside MOD1. Make sure the connector clip engages
correctly
Note
It is advisable to use the lower gland for the bus cable with the CAN termination resistor since this
cable is less flexible and will suffer less bending in this position
· Refit the cover plate and tighten screws "A" and "B" (tightening torque 2.0 Nm)
· Tighten the cable glands marked "D" (tightening torque 6 Nm). This step is important since it functions as
a strain relief as well as assuring splash protection after assembly
The electrical connection of the bus is now completed.

CLEANING
6 CLEANING
6.1 Routine cleaning
Caution
The use of flammable fluids to clean the appliance is forbidden
To ensure hygiene and the durability of the appliance, perform external cleaning on a regular basis, taking
care not to damage the cables and the electrical connections. Before starting cleaning, disconnect the
appliance from the power supply. Parts in steel can be washed with warm water and a neutral detergent:
Rinse them thoroughly to eliminate all traces of detergent and then dry with a dry cloth. Do not use abrasive
and corrosive detergents. Enamelled parts must be washed with soapy water. For appliances that included
an oven, cleaning it is made easier by removing the support grid. Thorough, daily cleaning prevents faults
and accumulated deposits of fat and/or food. The steels used in the manufacture of professional equipment
are tried and tested materials of the highest quality. Thanks to their characteristics, they are ideal materials
for use with food substances.
Consequently, when using stainless steel appliances, the following suggestions must be observed:
· Stainless steel surfaces must always be kept clean, also ensuring contact with the air. The lack of oxygen
under layers of scale, starch, egg white or other deposits means that surfaces can be affected by
corrosion
· Do not use products containing salt or sulphuric acid to remove scale. Suitable products are available
commercially but a diluted solution of acetic acid can also be used
· To clean STAINLESS STEEL appliances, it is advisable to use detergents specifically formulated for this
material. For "minor cleaning", a mild washing up liquid solution may also be used
· Do not wash the appliance with jets of water under pressure
· Avoid using detergents containing abrasive powders or bleaches of any kind
· Lockable stainless steel appliances, during periods of inactivity, must be left uncovered so that air can
freely access internal metal surfaces
· Stainless steel must not remain in contact for long periods with concentrated acids or with aromatised
concentrates such as salt solutions, mustard, spice mixtures or the like. At certain temperatures and
concentrations, these substances can damage the passive layer. Contact surfaces must therefore be
immediately rinsed with clean water and then dried
· It is inadvisable to use stainless steel pots exclusively to cook foods in salt water (pasta, rice, potatoes,
etc.). From time to time, these pots must also be used to cook foods containing fats or vegetables. This
helps to prevent damage caused by corrosion
· After cooking foods in salt water, rinse the tanks with fresh water since salt water residues from cooking
form layers of highly concentrated saline solution that can cause spotting corrosion
· To prevent so-called secondary corrosion, prolonged contact of stainless steel with ferritic steels should
be avoided
· Any secondary corrosion spots must be eliminated immediately
· Do not use sharp objects that may scratch stainless steel parts and consequently give rise to
deterioration
6.2 Cleaning the glass
The glass must be washed with liquid degreasers, vinegar and lemon based acids that are suitable for
cleaning ceramic and glass. It is recommended to perform cleaning when the glass is not completely cold, as
residual food, burnt grease or other items can be softened with a moist cloth and removed while hot using a
common scraper to prevent the glass surface from being tainted.

CLEANING
6.4 How to achieve a brilliant result in three simple steps:
To ensure thorough cleaning, first remove the worst encrustations and food remains using a special cleaning
spatula or a special sponge for glass ceramic hobs.
Then pour a few drops of a specific detergent on to the cold SCHOTT CERAN® hob and wipe with kitchen
paper or a clean cloth. Alternatively, you can also use a special cleaning sponge: we recommend the special
Vileda sponge
Lastly, wipe the hob with a wet cloth and then dry it with a clean cloth or the smooth side of a special sponge
for CERAN. Done!

CLEANING
6.5 How to your SCHOTT CERAN® hob bright and shining for a
long time
· The dimensions of the cooking pots must always be suitable for those of the cooking area
· Use cooking pots with smooth bases to avoid damaging the surface
· The base of the hot cooking pot must stand perfectly on the cooking area; in this way, the heat is
transmitted in the best possible way
· We recommend cooking pots with 2-3 mm thick bases for enamelled steel and 4-6 mm for stainless steel
with a sandwich base
· If you use the cold hob as a worktop, remember to clean it to avoid scratches caused by particles of dirt
or the like.
· When moving pots on the hob, always lift them to avoid scratching the surface.
Warning
A moment's distraction is more than enough ... for plastic, aluminium foil, sugar or foods
containing sugar to come into contact with the hob. These substances must be eliminated
immediately from the hot cooking area using the special cleaning spatula. If they melt, they
may damage the surface. We therefore recommend treating the hob with a suitable product
before cooking foods with high sugar content.
