Before the first use

Before using the hob for the first time, switch the plates
on for about 10 minutes at the maximum position.
It is important to note that the plate may smoke a little and
produce a slightly unpleasant odour when used for the
first time. This is quite normal and will disappear after a
few minutes.

Operation

Electric Hotplates

To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control knob
anticlockwise to the required heat setting.

The control knob is numbered 1 - 6
0 - OFF
1 - Minimum
6 - Maximum.
We recommend the plates are switched to maximum (6)

for a short while to boost the plate, and then adjusted to
the required setting.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the
overheated splashes could easily ignite.

Pilot Light

The Pilot Light will come on each time a cooking zone is
switched on.

You can switch off the plate a short while before you
finish cooking, and the final stage will be completed on
the accumulated heat. Similarly, stews etc. cooked in
well covered saucepans cook at lower temperature which
is more economical.

Ensure pans are large enough to avoid liquids being
split onto the plates.

Never leave the plates on without a pan on them
or with an empty pan on them.

Hints and Tips

Saucepans for use on solid plates should have several
characteristics:

 They should be fairly heavy duty
 They should fit the heat area exactly, or be slightly

larger for efficient use, NEVER smaller.

 They should have a flat base to ensure good contact

with the plate.
This is particularly important when using pans for high
temperature frying or pressure cooking.

Suggestions for the correct setting of the plates are given
in the following table.

OFF 0

Very Gentle 1 To keep food warm

To melt butter and chocolate

Gentle 2 To prepare cream-sauces,

stews and milk puddings
or to fry eggs

Slow 3 Dried vegetables, frozen

food, fruit, boiling water
or milk

Medium 4 Boiled potatoes, fresh

vegetables, pâtés, soups,
broths, pancakes or fish

High 5 Larger stews, meat roll, fish,

omelettes, steaks

Fast 6 Steaks, escalopes and frying.

As soon as liquid starts boiling, turn down the plate control
knob so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering.

28

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried
out, you must DISCONNECT the hob from the
electricity supply.

Never use steam or a steam cleaning machine
to clean the appliance.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage
can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

The Hob Top

Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well
wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid
has been added. Avoid the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following
products are recommended:

- For stainless steal hobs use a proprietary stainless
steel cleaner.

- For other hobs use warm water and soft detergent.

The control knobs may be removed by carefully pulling
them upward for easier cleaning.

The Hotplates

Spills onto the actual plate should be removed using
warm water and a soft brush, nylon or plastic scourer. To
keep the plates looking as new, hotplate conditioner can
be purchased from most hardware stores.

Alternatively, wipe the plates with a drop of olive oil on a
kitchen towel to avoid rust. It is important to note that the
plate will smoke a little and produce a slightly unpleasant
odour when next used.

Stainless steel parts: the stainless steel spill rings may
become straw coloured with use. Use a proprietary
stainless steel cleaner to remove this straw discolouration.
This also applies to the area around the hotplates on
stainless steel hobs.

Failure to clean and condition hotplates may lead
to rust and corrosion forming on the surface.

Instruction for the Installer

The following instructions about installation
and maintenance must be carried out by
qualified personnel in compliance with the
regulation in force.

The appliance must be electrically
disconnected before all interventions. If any
electric supply to the appliance is required to
carry out the work, ensure all the necessary
precautions are followed.

Electrical Connection

The appliance is designed to be connected to 230 V
monophase electricity supply.
The connection must be carried out in compliance with
the laws and regulations in force.
Before the appliance is connected:

1. check that the main fuse and the domestic installation
can support the load (see the rating label);

The side walls of the unit in which the hob is
going to be installed, must not exceed the
height of the working top.

Avoid installing the appliance in the proximity
of inflammable materials (e.g. curtains, tea
towels etc.).

Neutral

Earth (yellow/green)

2. check that the power supply is properly earthed in
compliance with the current rules;

3. check the socket or the double pole switch used for
the electrical connection can be easily reached with
the appliance built in the forniture unit.

The appliance is supplied with a connection cable. This
has to be provided with a proper plug, able to support the
load marked on the identification plate. To connect the
plug to the cable, follow the recommendation given in
Fig.1. The plug has to be fitted in a proper socket.
If connecting the appliance directly to the electric system,
it is necessary that you install a double pole switch
between the appliance and the electricity supply, with a
minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and
of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with
the current rules.
The connection cable has to be placed in order that, in
each part, it cannot reach a temperature 90 °C higher than
the room temperature.
The brown coloured phase cable (fitted in the terminal
block contact marked with "L") must always be connected
to the network phase.

Replacement of the connection cable

Fig. 2

FO 0257

The connection of the connection cable to the appliance's
terminal block is of type "Y". This means that its
replacement requires the specific equipment of a
technician.

In this case, only cable type H05V2V2-F T90 must be
used. The cable section must be suitable to the voltage
and the working temperature.
The yellow/green earth wire must be approximately 2
cm longer than the phase wires (Fig. 1).

Fig. 3

To open the terminal block and reach the terminals,
proceed as follows:

1. insert the point of a screwdriver into the visible
protrunding part of the terminal block;

2. exert a light pressure and lift (Fig. 2)

Dimensions are given in millimetres

These hobs can be inserted in a built-in kitchen unit whose
depth is between 550 and 600 mm. The hobs dimensions
are shown in Fig. 4.

Installation and assembly

These hobs can be installed in a kitchen unit with an
opening for insertion whose dimensions are shown in
Fig. 5.

The edge of the cut out must have a minimum distance
from the rear wall of 55 mm.
If there are side walls, or sides of the furniture unit near
the hob, the cut out edges must have a minimum distance
of 100 mm.
Hanging forniture units or hoods must be placed at 650
mm minimum from the hob.

Carry out the building in of the hob as follows:



1. Put the relevant sealings, supplied with the hob,
on the edges of the cut out, taking care that the
sealings meet without overlapping;

2. place the hob in the cut out, taking care of its centring;

3. fix the hob with the relevant screws (Fig. 6). The
traction of the screws is able to trace the sealing, any
excess of which can then be easily removed.

Fig. 5

If several 30cm hob are to be installed side by
side into the same cut out, an assembly kit
including a support side bracket and
supplementary sealings is available at our After
Sales Centres. The relevant installation instructions
are supplied within the kit package.

DECLARATION OF GUARANTEE TERMS

(BELGIUM)

Our appliances are produced with the greatest of care.
However, a defect may still occur. Our consumer
services department will repair this upon request,
either during or after the guarantee period. The service
life of the appliance will not, however, be reduced as a
result.
This declaration of guarantee terms is based on Euro­pean Union Directive 99/44/EC and the provisions of
the Civil Code. The statutory rights that the consumer
has under this legislation are not affected by this
declaration of guarantee terms.
This declaration does not affect the vendor’s statutory
warranty to the end user. The appliance is guaranteed
within the context of and in adherence with the follow­ing terms:

1. In accordance with provisions laid down in para­graphs 2 to 15, we will remedy free of charge any
defect that occurs within 24 months from the date
the appliance is delivered to the first end user.
These guarantee terms do not apply in the event of
use for professional or equivalent purposes.

2. Performing the guarantee means that the appli­ance is returned to the condition it was in before
the defect occurred. Defective parts are replaced
or repaired. Parts replaced free of charge become
our property.

3. So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect
must be brought to our attention immediately.

4. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer
providing proof of purchase showing the purchase
and/or delivery date.

5. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to
delicate parts, such as glass (vitreous ceramic),
synthetic materials and rubber, is the result of
inappropriate use.

6. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults
that do not affect the value or the overall reliability
of the appliance.

7. The statutory warranty does not apply when de­fects are caused by:

· a chemical or electrochemical reaction caused

by water,

· abnormal environmental conditions in gen-

eral,

· unsuitable operating conditions,

· contact with harsh substances.

8. The guarantee does not apply to defects due to
transport which have occurred outside of our re­sponsibility. Nor will the guarantee cover those
caused by inadequate installation or assembly,
lack of maintenance or failure to respect the
assembly instructions or directions for use.

9. Defects that result from repairs or measures car­ried out by people who are not qualified or expert
or defects that result from the addition of non­original accessories or spare parts are not covered

by the guarantee.

10. Appliances that are easy to transport may be
delivered or sent to the consumer services depart­ment. Home repairs are only anticipated for bulky
appliances or built-in appliances.

11. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or

replacing them in the place where they are fitted
takes more than half an hour, the costs that result
therefrom will be charged for. Connected damage
caused by these removal and replacement opera­tions will be the responsibility of the user.

12. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same
defect repeatedly is not conclusive, or if the repair
costs are considered disproportionate, in agree­ment with the consumer, the defective appliance
may be replaced with another appliance of the
same value.
In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a
financial contribution calculated according to the
length of time it has been used.

13. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the
normal guarantee period will be extended nor that
a new guarantee period begins.

14. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs,
limited to the same defect.

15. Except in the event where liability is legally im­posed, this declaration of guarantee terms ex­cludes any compensation for damage outside the
appliance for which the consumer wishes to as­sert his rights. In the event of legally admitted
liability, compensation will not exceed the pur­chase price paid for the appliance.

These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances
purchased and used in Belgium. For exported appli­ances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy
the technical conditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency,
installation instructions, type of gas, etc.) for the
country concerned and that they can withstand the
local climatic and environmental conditions. For appli­ances purchased abroad, the user must first ensure
that they meet the qualifications required in Belgium.
Non-essential or requested adjustments are not cov­ered by the guarantee and are not possible in all
cases.

Our consumer services department is always at your
disposal, even after the guarantee period has expired.
