Advantages of induction cooking
Level 9 Booster Double Booster
Power control
The hob is fitted with a power control
The appliance is equipped with an
induction generator for each
cooking zone. Each generator
located under the glass ceramic
cooking surface creates an
electromagnetic field which
induces a thermal current in the
base of the pan. This means the
heat is no longer transmitted from
the hob to the pan but created
directly inside the pan by the
module that optimises/limits consumption. If
the overall set power level exceeds the
maximum limit permitted, the electronic
circuit board will automatically manage the
power supplied by the hot plates.
The module tries to maintain the maximum
deliverable power levels. Levels set by the
automatic control will appear on the
display.
inductive current.
• Energy saving thanks to the direct
transmission of energy to the pan
(suitable magnetisable cookware is
required) compared to traditional
electric cooking.
• Improved safety as the energy is only
transmitted to the pan placed on the
hob.
• High level of energy transmitted from the
induction cooking zone to the base of
the pan.
• Rapid heating speed.
Priority is given to the last zone set.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking
surface is only heated under the base of
the pan; foods which overflow do not
stick.
The power control module does
not affect the total power
consumption of the appliance.

the hob.
• After use the cooking zones remain hot
for a certain period of time after they
have been turned off. Do not touch the
hob surfaces.
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use aluminium foil to cover the
burners or hob body.
• Cooking vessels or griddle plates
should be placed inside the perimeter of
the hob.
• All pans must have smooth, flat bottoms.
• If any liquid does boil over or spill,
remove the excess from the hob.

High temperature
Danger of fire or explosion
• Do not use or leave flammable materials
near the appliance or directly

• Do not cook in closed tins or containers,
plastic kitchenware or containers.
• In case you notice cracks or fissures or
you cannot turn off the appliance,
disconnect the power supply and
contact the Assistance Centre.
68
Use
3.2 Precautions
A gas leak can cause an explosion.
If you smell gas or there are faults in the gas
system:
• Immediately turn off the gas supply or
close the valve on the gas cylinder.
• Extinguish all naked flames and
cigarettes.
• Do not turn on power switches or
appliances and do not remove plugs
from power sockets. Do not use phones
or mobile phones inside the building.
• Open the window in order to ventilate
the room.
• Call customer assistance services or your
gas supplier.
Malfunctions
Any of the following indicate a malfunction
and you should contact a service centre.
• Damage to kitchen utensils.
• The burners do not ignite properly.
• It is difficult to keep the burners lit.
• The burners go out when the appliance
is in use.
• It is difficult to turn the gas cocks.
If the appliance does not work properly,
contact your local Authorised Service
Centre.
3. Remove and wash all the appliance
accessories (see 4 Cleaning and
maintenance).
3.4 Using the gas burners
All the appliance’s control and monitoring
devices are located together on the front
panel. The burner controlled by each knob is
shown next to the knob. The appliance is
equipped with an electronic ignition device.
Simply press the knob and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum flame symbol, until
the burner ignites. If the burner does not light
in the first 15 seconds, turn the knob to
and wait 60 seconds before trying again.
After lighting, keep the knob pressed in for a
few seconds to allow the thermocouple to
heat up.
The burner may go out when the knob is
released: In this case, the thermocouple has
not heated up sufficiently. Wait a few
moments and repeat the operation. Keep
the knob pressed in longer.
In case of an accidental switching
off, a safety device will be
tripped, cutting off the gas supply,
even if the gas cock is open.
Return the knob to and wait at
least 60 seconds before lighting it
again.
EN
3.3 First use
1. Remove any protective film from the
outside or inside of the appliance,
including accessories.
2. Remove any labels (apart from the
technical data plate) from accessories.
69
Use
Correct positioning of the flamespreader crowns and burner caps
Before lighting the hob burners, make sure
that the flame-spreader crowns are
correctly positioned in their housings with
their respective burner caps. Make sure that
the holes in the burners are aligned with the
igniters and thermocouples. Also ensure that
the flame-spreader crowns are correctly
engaged in the burner holes.
Correct positioning of the pan supports
Under the pan supports there are silicone
rests with a hole that must be centred onto
the matching fixing pins on the surface.
Make sure that the pan supports are simply
centred on their respective burners, without
forcing them to be raised or tilted. If they
are, repeat the positioning procedure.
If you find that a pan is particularly unstable,
make sure that the grids have not been
positioned incorrectly.

Cookware diameters
• AUX: from 8 to 18 cm.
• R: from 20 to 26 cm.
• UR: from 20 to 30 cm.
• UR*: from 20 to 30 cm.
Use
Trivets and reduction pan supports
The trivet/support must be rested on the
hob pan supports. Make sure they are
properly positioned.
Using a griddle
A few precautions are necessary if you wish
to use a griddle:
• The griddle can be pre-heated with the
burner on maximum power for no more
than 10 minutes.
• It is recommended you reduce the
power during cooking;
• Do not allow the burner flames to extend
beyond the edge of the griddle;
• Leave a gap of at least 150 mm
between the edge of the griddle and the
side wall;
• Do not place the griddle over more than
one burner at the same time.
3.5 Using the induction hot plates
All the appliance’s control and monitoring
devices are located together on the front
panel. The induction hob is controlled by
means of the Touch control sensor buttons.
Lightly touch a symbol on the glass ceramic
surface. A beep will sound to confirm every
effective touch.
Switching on the hob for the first time
On first connection to the electrical
mains, an automatic check will be
carried out that will switch on all
indicator lights for a few seconds.
When the appliance is used for the first
time, after having been connected to the
mains the flashing symbol appears on
the display. It is used to access the
appliance’s technical menu and is intended
only for Technical Support personnel.

• Do not cover the control panel.
• Do not place the pans next to the edges
of the glass.

(cm)
Suitable cookware:
• Enamelled steel cookware with thick
bases.
• Cast iron cookware with an enamelled
base.
• Cookware in multilayer stainless steel,
ferritic stainless steel and aluminium with
a special base.
Unsuitable cookware:
• Copper, stainless steel, aluminium,
fireproof glass, wood, ceramic and
terracotta cookware.
To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a
magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted,
the pan is suitable for induction cooking.
If you do not have a magnet, you can put a
small amount of water in the pan, place it
on a cooking zone and start the hot plate.
If the symbol appears on the display, it
means the pan is not suitable.
Cookware suitable for use in induction
cooking
Cookware used on the induction cooking
surface must be made of metal, with
magnetic properties and a sufficiently large
base.
72
Use only cookware with a
perfectly flat bottom which is
suitable for induction hot plates.
Using cookware with an irregular
bottom could jeopardise the
efficiency of the heating system
and prevent cookware from being
detected on the hot plate.
