IMPORTANT: The appliance must be
installed by a qualied technician
according with the current local
regulations and in compliance with
the manufacturer instructions.
Incorrect installation might cause
harm and damage to people, animals
or objects, for which the manufacturer
accepts no responsibility.
Connection to a good earth wiring
system is absolutely essential.
The manufacturer accepts no
responsibility for any inconvenience
caused by failure to comply with this
rule.
Before carrying out any work on the
electrical section of the appliance,
it must be disconnected from the
mains.
GENERAL
• Connection to the electric power
supply must be carried out by a
qualied technician and following the
appropriate safety regulations.
• The appliance must be connected to
the mains checking that the voltage
corresponds to the value given in the
rating plate and that the electrical
cable sections can withstand the load
specied on the plate.
• If the hob is supplied without plug, t a
standard plug which is suitable for the
power absorbed by the appliance and in
conformity with the local rules in force.
• The colours of the wires in the appliance
power cable may not correspond with
the colours marked on the terminals of
your electrical plug. The plug should
always be wired as follows:
– connect the green/yellow wire to
the terminal marked with the letter
“E” or the earth symbol “ ” or
coloured green/yellow;
– connect the blue wire to the
terminal marked with the letter “N”
or coloured black;
– connect the brown wire to the
terminal marked with the letter “L”
or coloured red.
• The plug must be connected to an
outlet connected to the grounding unit
in conformity to security norms.
• If the appliance is to be connected
directly to the mains, it must be placed
with an omnipolar switch with minimum
opening between the contacts of 3 mm
between the appliance and the mains.
• The power supply cable must not touch
the hot parts and must be positioned
so that it does not exceed 50°C above
ambient.
• Once the appliance has been installed,
the power switch or power plug must
always be in a accessible position.
• If the power supply cable is damaged it
must be substituted by a suitable cable
available in the after sales service.
• The appliance must have its own
supply; any other appliances installed
near it must be supplied separately.
– N.B. For connection to the mains,
do not use adapters, reducers or
branching devices as they can
cause overheating and burning.
– If the hob surface is cracked
disconnect the appliance from the
mains and contact the After-Sales
Service.
In the event that installation should
require modications to the mains supply
wiring system, it is recommended that a
qualied technician be called to carry out
substitution.
The technician will also have to verify that
the cross-section of the electric cables
on the power point match the appliance’s
power rating.

Caution! Do not cover the hob with

WARNING: If the surface is cracked,
switch o the appliance to avoid the
possibility of electric shock.
The ceramic surface of the hob allows a fast
transmission of heat in the vertical direction,
from the heating elements underneath the
ceramic glass to the pans set on it.
The heat does not spread in the horizontal
direction, so that the glass stays “cool” at
only a few centimeters from the cooking
plate.
Check that the hob is clean and then switch
on by turning the control knob.
When the top is working, the pilot light will
be on.
When the hob temperature is above 60°C,
the corresponding indicator light will come
on to indicate that the hob is hot.
This light will stay on even after the hob
has been switched o to indicate that the
hob is still hot.
The residual heat persists for some time
after the hob has been switched o.
During this time avoid touching the
hob and take particular care if there are
children nearby.
The light will go out automatically when the
hob temperature drops below 60°C.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The heating elements incorporate a
thermolimiter that switches ON/OFF the
element in all settings to protect any
overheating of the ceramic glass.
The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong
pan positioning will cause the temperature
limiter to operate more frequently, resulting
in a reduction of cooking performance.
“3-CIRCUIT” RADIANT ZONES
The heating element (g. 2.2) consists of
3 electrical resistances which can operate
together or separately according to the
setting of the 7-position switch (g. 2.1).
It reaches the required temperature very
quickly.

COOKING HINTS:
• To reduce the cooking time, you can
turn the control knob to the max when
you switch the plate on. After a short
time you can set the control knob to
the position required for cooking.
• You should only use pots and pans
with at bases (pans with the test mark
for glass-ceramic hobs are available
from specialist shops). The diameter
of the pan should match that of the
cooking plate (or be slightly bigger) to
make the most of the energy.
• Since the cooking surface will stays
hot for a certain time after the plate
has been switched o, you can switch
it o 5 or 10 minutes before the end of
the cooking. The residual heat of the
hob will complete the cooking.
• To save electricity, use pan lids
whenever possible.
• Never cook the food directly on the
glass ceramic cooktop.
WARNING: Hobs become very hot with
use, and retain their heat for a long time
after cooking has nished (about 30
minutes).
Children should be supervised at all
times and be prevented from touching
the hot surfaces, until such time as the
appliance has cooled.
Caution!
The cooking hob becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
DO NOT USE GLASSWARE ON CERAMIC HOBS.
DO NOT USE PANS WITH ROUGHT CIRCULAR

ADVICE FOR SAFE USE OF THE
COOKTOP
• Before switching on make sure that
you have the correct knob for the
hotplate chosen. It is advisable to
put the pan on the hotplate before
switching
on and to take it away after
switching o.
• Use cookware with at and even
bottoms (be careful when using cast
iron vessels). Uneven bottoms can
scratch the glass ceramic surfaces. Be
careful that the bottom is clean and dry.
• Pots with aluminium bottoms may
leave silver streaks or spots on the bob.
• Do not leave wet or damp lids on the bob.
• The glass-ceramic surface and pans
must be clean. Carefully eliminate any
food remains (especially containing
sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a
cleansing agent.
• Make sure that the handles of
cookware do not stick out over the
edge of the cooker, to avoid them
being knocked over by accident. This
also makes it more dicult for children
to reach the cooking vessels.
• Do not lean over the cooking zones
when they are switched on.
• Do not drop heavy or sharp objects
on the glass ceramic cooktop. If the
surface is broken or damaged unplug
the appliance and contact the after-
sales service.
• Do not put aluminium foil or plastic
objects on the cooking zones when
they are hot.
• Remember that the cooking zones
remain hot for some time after they are
switched o (about 30 mm.).
• Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
• If you note a crack in the cooktop,
switch the appliance o immediately
and call the After-Sales Service.
Do not scratch the cooktop with
cutting or sharp objects.
Do not use the glass ceramic surface
as a work surface.
CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB
Before you begin cleaning make sure
that the appliance is switched o.
Remove any encrustation using a scraper
specic for glass ceramic surfaces.
Dust or food particles can be removed with
a damp cloth.
If you use a detergent, please make sure
that it is not abrasive or scouring.
Abrasive or scouring powders can damage
the glass surface of the hob. All traces of
the cleaner have to be removed with a
damp cloth.
It is highly recommended to keep o the
hob any article which can melt: plastic,
aluminium foil, sugar, sugar syrup mixtures
etc.
If any of these products has melted on
the ceramic surface, you should remove it
immediately (when the surface is still hot)
by using a scraper to avoid any permanent
damage to the surface of the hob.
Avoid using any knife or sharp utensil since
these can damage the ceramic.
Do not use steel wool or an abrasive
sponge which could scratch the surface
permanently.
ATTENTION: MOST IMPORTANT!
If cleaning the glass ceramic hob using
a special tool (i.e. scraper) take extra
care to avoid damage to the seal at the
edges of the glass ceramic surface.
