BEFORE USING THE COOKING HOB
x To get full satisfaction of your
cooking hob, please read these
instructions carefully and keep them
for future consultation.
SUGGESTIONS FOR ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
1. Packaging
The packaging material is entirely recyclable,
andismarkedwiththerecyclingsymbol
which identifies it as a type of material that
must be sent to local waste-disposal centres.
2. Product
The cooking hob is made out of recyclable
material. When scrapping it, comply with
local waste-disposal regulations. Before
disposing of it, cut its power cable off in
order to render it inoperative.
PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL ADVICE
Ù
x Keep the packaging material (plastic bags,
polystyrene parts, etc.) out of the reach of
children, as they are potentially dangerous.
x Check whether the cooking hob has been
damaged during transport.
x 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.
,
x Before any cleaning or maintenance
operation, disconnect the cooking hob
from mains power supply.
x 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.
x In case of prolonged use, additional
ventilation may be needed (opening a
window or increasing the extraction
force of the hood).
x Keep children away from the cooking
hob when it is in use.
x After use, ensure that the knobs are in
position x (off), and close the main gas
delivery valve or the gas cylinder valve.
x Caution: the lid (where present) might
break if overheated. Before closing it,
make sure that all the burners are off.

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 cooking hob, as indicated on
the rating plate.
x
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 cooking
hob.
x
Before installing the cooking hob, remove the
plastic film that protects it, if present.
The outer surfaces of the furniture or appliances
adjoining the cooking hob must be heat resistant
(heat protection “Y” , according to standards
EN 60335-2-6).
Assembly

- 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.
