BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP
These instructions are only valid for those
Countries where the destination abbreviations are
mentioned on the rear cover of the user
instructions and on the appliance.
• To get full satisfaction of your cooktop,
please read these instructions carefully
and keep them for future consultation.
Keep the packaging material (plastic bags,
•
polystyrene parts, etc.) out of the reach of
children, as they are potentially dangerous.
Check whether the cooktop has been damaged
•
during transport.
• Ensure that the installation and gas/electrical
connections are performed by a qualified
technician, following the manufacturer's
instructions and in compliance with current
local safety regulations.
SUGGESTIONS FOR ENVIRONMENT
PROTECTION
1. Packaging
The packaging material is entirely recyclable, and is
marked with the recycling symbol , which
identifies it as a type of material that must be sent
to local waste-disposal centres.
2. Product
The cooktop is made out of recyclable material.
When scrapping it, comply with local wastedisposal regulations. Before disposing of it, cut its
power cable off in order to render it inoperative.
PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL ADVICE
• Before any cleaning or maintenance
operation, disconnect the cooktop from
mains power supply.
• The use of a gas appliance produces heat
and humidity in the room. Ensure that the
room is well ventilated, or install an
extractor hood with exhaust duct.
• In case of prolonged use, additional ventilation
may be needed (opening a window or
increasing the extraction force of the hood).
• Keep children away from the cooktop when
it is in use.
• After use, ensure that the knobs are in
position (off), and close the main gas
delivery valve or the gas cylinder valve.
• Caution: the lid (where present) might
break if overheated. Before closing it, make
sure that all the burners are off.
• Warning: The protective rubber feet on the
panstand grids represent a choking hazard
for young children. After cleaning the
panstand grids, please ensure that all the
rubber feet are correctly fitted.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
The cooktop is equipped with burners and/or a hotplate with
•
different diameters. Use pots and pans whose bottom diameter
is equal to that of the burners and hotplate, or slightly larger.
Only use flat-bottomed pots and pans.
•
The pots and pans must not overlap the control panel.
•

INSTALLATION
Technical information for the Installer
This cooktop can be embedded in a worktop 20 to 50 mm
thick. If there is no oven beneath the cooktop (any oven
installed must be manufactured by us and equipped with
a cooling system), insert a separator panel at a minimum
distance of 20 mm from the bottom of the cooktop.
Note: before installation, make sure that the local gas
delivery conditions (nature and pressure of gas) are
compatible with the settings of the cooktop, as indicated
on the Product Description Sheet and on the rating plate.
• If a vertical piece of furniture is installed, there must be
a gap of at least 100 mm between it and the edge of the
cooktop.
Before installation, remove the plastic film protecting the
•
appliance, if provided.
The outer surfaces of the furniture or appliances adjacent to
the cooktop must be heat resistant (heat protection
according to standards.
Installation must comply with current local regulations.
•
In the room where the cooktop is installed, there must be
•
enough air to allow the gas to burn correctly
(see the separate Product Description Sheet).
The natural flow of air must take place through an adequate
•
opening, that must be:
- permanent, made on one of the outside walls of the room,
and communicating with the exterior in an area away from
sources of pollution;
- built so as to ensure that its openings, both on the inside and
on the outside, cannot be obstructed, intentionally or
accidentally;
- protected by a metal grid or mesh that does not reduce its
working section;
- situated near the floor level and positioned so as not to
interfere with the operation of the fume exhaust devices.
- The fume exhaust has to take place through an appropriate
hood or fan installed on the wall or on the window.
Assembly
• Apply the supplied gasket to the cooktop (if not yet
fitted), after having cleaned its surface as shown in the
relevant figure.
To secure the cooktop, use brackets
Fit the brackets into the relevant bores and fasten them by
1.
means of their screws.
Make an opening in the worktop, respecting the dimensions
2.
indicated in the enclosed Product Description Sheet.
Install the cooktop in the worktop.
3.
Important: the power supply cable and plug must be

If no information concerning your Country is given, please ask
details to your Installer.
The connection of the cooktop to the gas pipe network or gas
cylinder must be made by means of a rigid copper or steel pipe
with fittings complying with local regulations, or by means of a
continuous-surface stainless steel hose complying with local
regulations. Interpose gasket
The maximum length of the hose is 2 m.
ONLY FOR BELGIUM:
It is necessary to replace the elbow connection (A) on the
appliance, with the one supplied.
Important: if a stainless steel hose is used, it must be installed
