INDUCTION VITROCERAMIC HOB
User instructions
GENERAL
Carefully read the contents of this leaflet since it provides
important instructions regarding safety of installation, use
and maintenance.
Keep the leaflet for possible future consultation. All the
operations relating to installation (electrical connections)
must be carried out by specialised personnel in
accordance with current regulations.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
-This appliance is designed exclusively for co-
oking food, with the express exclusion of any
other domestic, commercial or industrial.
- Pay attention to cooking using grease or oil, can
ignite easily.
- Metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons and
lids should not be placed on the device because
it may become very hot.
- Avoid the overflow of liquids by reducing the
heat supply when boiling or warming liquids.
- Do not leave any heating element switched on,
if there are no pots, or if the pots are empty.
- Once cooking is completed, turn the concerned
heating element off, by using the control shown
below.
- This appliance is not intended for use by people
(children included) with limited physical, senso-
rial or mental abilities, or lacking of experience
and knowledge, unless they are supervised or
well instructed about the use of the appliance,
by a person who is responsible for their safety.
- Children should be supervised to assure that
they do not play with the appliance.
- If the hob surface is cracked, turn the
appliance off and disconnect it from the
electric network , so as to avoid the pos-
sibility of electric shock.
IMPORTANT: After use, switch the cooking top off with
the command device.
IMPORTANT:
- Avoid spilling liquid, therefore to boil or heat liquids,
reduce the heat.
- Please ensure when the appliance is turned on, that
there are no empty pots left on top.
- When you have finished cooking, switch off the relevant
heating element with the command indicated below.

WARNING
If the surface of the hob is cracked, turn off the
appliance and disconnect from the electrical main in
order to avoid any possible electric shocks.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions are for a specialized installer and
are a guide for the installation process, regulations and
maintenance in accordance with the law and current
standards.
If the built-in oven or any other appliances that produce
heat, need to be installed directly underneath the
cooking hobs in ceramic glass, IT IS NECESSARY THAT
THE APPLIANCE (oven) AND THE COOKING HOBS

h
IN CERAMIC GLASS ARE ADEQUATELY ISOLATED,
in such a way that the heat generated from the oven,
measured on the right hand side of the bottom of the
cooking hobs, does not exceed 60°C.
Failure to follow this precaution, could cause a
malfunction in the TOUCH CONTROL system.
POSITIONING
The domestic appliance was built in order to be
encased on a work surface, the way it is illustrated in
the graph (Fig.1). Predispose sealing material (Fig.2)
along the whole perimeter (for dimensions of the cut
see Fig.1). Lock the domestic appliance into place with
4 supporters, keeping in mind the width of the surface
(Fig.4). If the lower part of the appliance after installation,
is accessable via the lower part of the furniture, it is
necessary to mount a separating panel keeping in mind
the distances indicated (Fig.3).
This is not necessary if underneath the induction hob is
installed an oven.
VENTILATION
the distance between the cooktop and built-in kitchen's
furnitures or cooking apparatuses must guarantee
sufficient ventilation of the air. Not to use the cooktop if in
the oven is in course the pyrolysis process.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (Fig.5)
Before making the electrical connections, check that:
- the ground wire is 2 cm longer than the other cables;
- the system ratings meet the ratings indicated on the
identification plate fixed on the lower part of the worktop;
- the system is fitted with efficient ground wires in
accordance with the laws and current standards.
Grounding is mandatory by law. If the domestic appliance
is not supplied with a cable and/or suitable plug, use
material suitable for the absorption value indicated on
the identification plate and the operating temperature.
If wishing to make a direct connection to the mains, an
omnipolar switch must be installed with a minimum 3
mm opening between the contacts and appropriate for
the load indicated on the plate and in accordance with
current standards (the yellow/green ground conductor
must not be disconnected by a switch). When the
appliance has been installed, the omnipolar switch must
be easily reachable.
USE
The fundamental characteristic of the induction system is
the direct transference of heat from the generator to the
cooking recipient.
Advantages:
- The transference of power takes place only when the
recipient is placed on the cooking zone.
- The heat is generated only at the base of the recipient
and transferred directly to the food to be cooked.
- Reduced heating time and low consumption of power
during the beginning of cooking, allowing a global
saving of power.
- The fibreglass top remains cold, the heat felt on
the cooking top is that reflected from the base of the
recipient.
COOKING RECIPIENTS
The use of appropriate recipients is an essential factor
for induction cooking. Check that your pots are suitable
for the induction system.
The recipients must contain iron. You can check
whether the material of the pot is magnetic with a simple
magnet (Fig.6).
We advise recipients having a flat base (Fig.7A).
This way you can use the power optimally.
Do not use recipients with a rough base to avoid
scratching the thermal surface of the top.
A very important factor in induction cooking is the dimension
of the pot compared to the plate used (Fig.7B). The
