A RISK THAT INCRUSTATIONS WILL BE LEFT THAT ARE

IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE ONCE THE HOB HAS COOLED.

Instructions for disposal

2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR DISPOSAL – OUR

CONCERN FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

Our product's packing is made of non-polluting materials, therefore

compatible with the environment and recyclable. Please help by disposing

of the packaging correctly. You can obtain the addresses of collection,

recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent

local organisations.

Do not throw the packing or any part of it away. It can constitute a

suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.

Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.

Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for

the collection of electrical appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal

enables intelligent recovery of valuable materials.

It is also necessary to cut the connecting cable to the power supply

network, removing it along with the plug.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER INSTALLATION CARRY OUT A BRIEF INSPECTION TEST,

FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW. SHOULD THE APPLIANCE NOT

FUNCTION, DISCONNECT IT FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AND CALL

THE NEAREST TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE CENTRE.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE APPLIANCE.

THE APPLIANCE BECOMES VERY HOT DURING USE. SUITABLE HEAT-PROOF

GLOVES SHOULD BE WORN FOR ALL OPERATIONS.

THE APPLIANCE IS INTENDED FOR USE BY ADULTS. KEEP CHILDREN AT A

ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE CONTROL KNOBS ARE IN THE 0 (OFF) POSITION

WHEN YOU FINISH USING THE APPLIANCE.

AS SOON AS YOU NOTICE A FRACTURE OR A CRACK ON THE SURFACE OF

THE GLASS CERAMIC HOB, SWITCH THE APPLIANCE OFF AND CONTACT AN

AUTHORISED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE CENTRE.

USERS OF PACEMAKERS OR SIMILAR DEVICES MUST ENSURE THAT THE

OPERATION OF THEIR DEVICES WILL NOT BE AFFECTED BY THE

INDUCTION FIELD, WHICH HAS A FREQUENCY RANGE OF 20-50 KHZ.

Instructions for the user

5. BEFORE INSTALLATION

Do not discard packing in the home environment. Separate the various

waste materials and take them to the nearest special garbage collection

centre.

In order to remove all manufacturing residues, we recommend you to

clean the appliance. For further information on cleaning see point "7.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE".

Before using the electric plates or the barbecue (if included) for the first

time, pre-heat them to the maximum temperature long enough to burn off

any manufacturing oily residues which could give the food a bad smell.

Instructions for the user

6. USING THE HOB

6.1 Gas hob

Before lighting the hob burners, check that the flame-spreader crowns are

correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the

holes A in the flame-spreaders are aligned with the plugs and

thermocouples.

The rack B is for use with woks. To prevent damage to the cooker hob, it

comes complete with a raised pan stand C. This must be placed under

pans with a diameter bigger than those indicated in the table in point "6.3

Pan diameters". In any case, the pan stand C should not be used on UR-3

burners and the fish burner.

The burner controlled by each knob is shown next to

the knob. The appliance is equipped with an

electrical ignition device. Simply press the knob and

turn it counterclockwise to the maximum flame

symbol, until the burner lights. If it does not light in

the first 15 seconds, position the knob on 0 and wait

at least 60 seconds before trying to light it again.

On valved models, once the burner is lit, keep the knob pressed for a few

seconds to give the thermocouple time 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 keeping the

knob pressed for longer. This is not necessary on burners that are not

equipped with a thermocouple. Once the burner is lit, the flame can be

adjusted as required. Always check that the control knobs are in the

(off) position when you finish using the hob.

If the burners should go out accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety

device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is

open. In this case, turn the knob to the OFF position and wait at least 60

seconds before trying to light the burner again.

Instructions for the user

6.2 Practical tips for using the burners

For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans

with a flat, smooth base and a lid that have a suitable size for the burner,

thus preventing the flames reaching the sides of the pan (see point "6.3

Pan diameters"). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame

far enough to prevent the liquid from boiling over.

To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all pans or griddle

plates must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob.

Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if

overheated.

Instructions for the user

6.4 Glass ceramic hob

The appliance has two cooking zones of various

power levels and diameters.

The positions are clearly indicated by circles and the

heat is concentrated within the diameters traced on

the hob. The radiating zones come on after a few

seconds and their heat level can be adjusted by

rotating the knob to the required position between 1

and 9.

The adjustment is gradual so all the intermediate zones can be used. The

lights to the side of the knobs indicate the residual heat: they come on

when the electric hot plates exceed 50°C and go off when the temperature

falls below this level. For cleaning, see paragraph "7.3 Cleaning the glass

ceramic hob".

6.4.1 Cooking guidelines
