100°C above ambient temperature whilst in use. Certain types of vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are
particularly prone to heat damage or discolouration at temperatures below the guidelines given above.
Any damage caused by the Cooktop being installed without adhering to the temperature limits set out
above will be the liability of the owner. To avoid any hazards, limit access to the under-bench section
of the cook top.

22. The Cooktop must be installed and put into operation by an authorised person under the conditions

provided by the manufacturer in this manual. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any
damage that might occur due to faulty installation.

23. Damage can occur to bench tops if pots and pans are allowed to overlap the bench top. This can result

in heat being transferred to the bench top. Ensure that correct sized pots & pans are used. Pans should
be lifted on and off the cooktop surface and not dragged. Cooking zones should not be switched on
without cookware placed on it. Do not place empty cookware onto the cooking zones when in use.

24. Do not leave the cooktop unattended while cooking with solid or liquid oils. There may be flaming up in

conditions of extreme heating. Never pour water onto the flames occurring from oil. Immediately turn
the cooktop off and cover the pan with a lid or fire blanket in order to smother the flame.

25. Users with pacemakers should keep their upper body at least 30cm away from any operational inductive

cooking zone. If in doubt, please consult your doctor before use.

26. Do not place metal objects such as spoons or pan lids onto the cooktop as they may become hot or

cause damage to the surface.

27. A small amount of noise will sometimes be heard as elements turn on & off during operation. This is

normal & not a fault. The sound of the fans will vary depending on cooking zone usage.

continuously.

INSTALLATION

The adjacent furniture must be able to withstand a minimum temperature rise of
100°C above the ambient temperature of the room it is located in, during periods of
use. The power supply to the Cooktop must be cut off before any adjustments or
maintenance work is done on it. The Cooktop must be well ventilated (as per this
manual) otherwise the Cooktop will overheat.

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION AND USE

Manufactured with best quality parts and materials, this modern, functional and practical
cooktop will meet your needs in all respects. Make sure to read the manual to obtain
successful results so as not to experience any problems in the future. The information given
below contains rules that are necessary for correct positioning and service operations. They
should be read without fail, especially by the technician who will position the Cooktop.

CHOOSING A LOCATION FOR THE COOKTOP
There are several points to pay attention to when choosing a location for your cooktop. Make
sure to take into account our recommendations below in order to prevent any problems and
dangerous situations, which might occur later!
When choosing a location for the cooktop, attention should be paid that there are no
flammable or combustible materials in the close vicinity, such as curtains, oil, cloth etc.
which quickly catch fire.
Ensure a distance between the cooktop edge and rear or side walls of at least 50mm.
Furniture surrounding the cooktop must be made of materials resistant to temperatures
above 100 C°. Required changes to wall cabinets and exhaust fans above a built-in cooktop as
well as minimum heights from the oven board are shown in Figure 1. Accordingly, the exhaust
fan should be at a minimum height of 65 cm from the cooktop. If there is no exhaust fan the
height should not be less than 70 cm.
