appropriate recycling centre.
To save energy
• The diameter of the base of the pan must not
extend beyond the lines printed on the glass
ceramic surface.
• Pans must not be placed outside the
perimeter of the hob or on the display.
• When buying a pan, check whether the
diameter indicated is that of the base or the
top of the pan, as the top is almost always
larger than the base.
• When preparing dishes with long cooking
times, you can save time and energy by
using a pressure cooker, which also helps to
retain vitamins contained in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker contains
enough liquid as, if there is not enough and
it overheats, this may cause damage to both
the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover pans with a
suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
saucepan leads to a waste of energy.

Advantages of induction cooking
• 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
transmitted to the pan placed on the hob.
• 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.
Power control
The hob is fitted with a power control module
that optimises/limits consumption. If the overall
set power level exceeds the maximum limit
permitted, the electronic circuit board will
automatically manage the power supplied by
the hot plates. The module tries to maintain the
maximum deliverable power levels. Levels set by
the automatic control will appear on the display.
The appliance is equipped with an
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.
Priority is given to the last zone set.
The power control module does not
affect the total power consumption of
the appliance.

USE
Basic functions
First power connection
When connected to the power supply for the
first time, or after power has been switched
back on after a power failure, an automatic
check is carried out that control turns on the
indicator lights and the displays for a few
seconds. Afterwards, the appliance can be
used normally.
Switching on the hob for the first time
When the appliance is used for the first time,
after having been connected to the mains
power supply, the flashing symbol appears
on the display. It is used to access the
appliance’s technical menu and is intended only
for Technical Support personnel.
When the appliance is switched on, the
icon, the
dimly lit button and the text appear
on the timer display.
Preliminary operations
• Remove any protective film from the outside
or inside of the appliance, including any
accessories (if present).
• Remove any labels (apart from the technical
data plate).
Usable cookware diameters
*If you use pans with a diameter less than the one
indicated in the column above, the appliance might
not detect them.
Bear in mind the following:
• Do not exceed the limits of the zones printed
on the hob.
• Do not cover the control panel.
• Do not place the pans next to the edges of
the glass.
• If you wish to use a griddle or a long pan in
zones 1 and 2 in Multizone mode, it is
recommended that you use one with a
maximum size of 22 x 36 cm and a
minimum size of 19 x 19 cm.
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.
Advice on energy-saving
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.

correspond to the diameter of the cooking zone.
• When buying a pot, check whether the
diameter indicated is that of the base or the
top,
as the top is almost always larger than the base.
• The base of the cookware must be thick and
completely flat. In addition, the hob should
be clean and dry as well.
• When preparing dishes with long cooking
times, you can save time and energy by
using a pressure cooker, which also makes it
possible to preserve the vitamins in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker contains
enough liquid as, if there is not enough and
it overheats, this may cause damage to both
the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover the pans with a
suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of
food to be cooked. A large, half-empty
saucepan leads to a waste of energy.
• Do not use cast-iron cookware or cookware
with a rough base.

•“E2”
• “Er21”
Indicate that the appliance or part of it is
overheating. If this occurs, you should switch off
the appliance immediately, remove all pans and

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the surfaces in good condition, they
should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them
cool first.
Ordinary daily cleaning
Always and only use specific products that do
not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe
the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft
cloth or a microfibre cloth.
Weekly cleaning
Clean and maintain the hob once a week using
an ordinary glass ceramic cleaning product.
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
The silicon in these products creates a
protective, water-repellent membrane which
also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane
and can therefore be removed easily. After
cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth.
Make sure that there is no detergent left on the
cooking surface as it might undergo an
aggressive reaction when heated up and could
modify the structure of the cooking surface.
Food stains or residues
Light coloured marks from pans with aluminium
bases can be easily cleaned off with a cloth
moistened in vinegar. Remove any burnt-on
residues after cooking; then rinse with water and
dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Dirt, which
may have fallen on the hob while cleaning
lettuce or potatoes, can scratch the hob when
moving pans. Consequently, remove any dirt
from the cooking surface immediately. Changes
in colour do not affect the operation and
stability of the glass. These are not alterations to
the material of the hob but just residues which
have not been removed and have then
carbonised. Shiny surfaces can form due to the
bases of pans, especially aluminium ones,
rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of
unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to

remove using conventional cleaning products. It
may be necessary to repeat the cleaning
process several times. Use of corrosive
detergents or rubbing of pan bases can wear
away the decoration on the hob over time and
contribute to the formation of stains.
What to do if...
The hob does not work:
• Make sure that the hob is connected and
that the main switch is turned on.
• Make sure that there is no power failure.
• Make sure that the fuse has not blown. In
this case replace the fuse.
• Make sure that the circuit breaker of the
residential electrical system has not tripped.
In this case, reset the circuit breaker.
The cooking results are unsatisfactory:
• Make sure that the cooking temperature is
not too high or too low.
• Make sure that the hob is properly
ventilated and that the air inlets are
unobstructed.
• Use cookware that is certified and tested for
induction cooking.
The hob smokes:
• Let the hob cool down and clean it once
cooking is complete.
• Make sure that the food has not spilled out
of the pan and use a larger cooking vessel,
if needed.
The fuses blow or the circuit breaker of the
residential electrical system trips repeatedly.
• Call Technical Support or an electrician.
There are cracks or fissures in the hob:
• Turn off the appliance immediately,
disconnect the power supply and contact
Technical Support.
