Advantages of induction cooking
The appliance is equipped with an
Max. power absorbed

2.3 Available accessories
WOK ring
Power absorbed in
Power function (W)*
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
inductive current.
Useful when using a wok.
The accessories intended to come
into contact with food are made of
materials that comply with the
provisions of current legislation.
• 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

• High level of energy transmitted from the
induction cooking zone to the base of
the pan.
• Rapid heating speed.
• Reduced danger of burns as the cooking
surface is only heated under the base of
the pan; foods which overflow do not
stick.

3.1 Instructions
Improper use
Danger of burns
• Make sure that the flame-spreader
crowns are correctly positioned in their
housings with their respective burner
caps.

during operation or when the residual
heat indicator lights are still on.
• Do not put empty pans or frying pans on
switched on cooking zones.
• Do not touch the appliance’s heating
elements when it is running. Leave them
to cool before cleaning.
• Activate the controls lock when you

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.

High temperature
Danger of fire or explosion
• Do not use or leave flammable materials
near the appliance or directly
underneath the hob.
• 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.
3.2 Precautions
Use
• The burners go out when the appliance
is in use.
• It is difficult to turn the gas valves.
If the appliance does not work properly,
contact your local Authorised Service
Centre.
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.
3. Remove and wash all the appliance
accessories (see 4 Cleaning and
maintenance).
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.
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 anti-clockwise 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.
12
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.
Use
EN
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 grids
Under the grids there are silicone rests with
a hole that must be centred onto the
matching fixing pins on the surface.
Make sure that the grids are simply centred
on their respective burners, without forcing
the burners to be raised or tilted. If this is the
case, repeat the positioning procedure.
If you find that a pan is particularly unstable,
make sure that the grids have not been
positioned incorrectly.
13
Use
Cookware diameters
• UR*: from 20 to 30 cm.
Ring reducers
The ring reducers must be rested on the hob
grid. 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
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.
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 keys.
Lightly touch a symbol on the glass ceramic
surface. A beep will sound to confirm every
effective touch.
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.
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.
14
Use
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.
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 cooking zone.

Limiting the cooking duration
The hob has an automatic device which
limits the duration of use.
If the cooking zone settings are not
changed, the maximum duration of
operation for each zone depends on the
power level selected.
When the device for limiting the duration of
use is activated, the cooking zone turns off,
a short alert sounds and, if the zone is hot,
the symbol appears on the display.

Protection from overheating
If the hob is used on full power for a long
period, the electronics will have trouble

high.
To avoid excessively high temperatures
forming in the electronics, the power to the
cooking zone is reduced automatically.
