Using The Induction Hob/Wok; Prolonged Disuse; Instructions For Cleaning; Reminders For Cleaning - ALI NIW74TE Instrucciones Para Instalación, Uso Y Mantenimiento

• Under no circumstances should the induc-
tion cooker be switched on if the glass ce-
ramic hob is cracked or broken. This could
be dangerous.
• With the transmission of heat from pots,
the glass ceramic hob becomes extremely
hot and must therefore never be touched
after cooking (risk of burns).
• Do not place metal items (equipment, kni-
ves, etc.) near the cooking zones, as they
can become hot very quickly.
• During use, take care when wearing rings,
watches and similar items since these can
become extremely hot if too close to the
cooking zone.
• Users must be informed of the potential
risks for individuals fitted with a heart pa-
cemaker or metallic prosthesis.
• Is recommended to use personal protec-
tive equipment, possibilities of spreading
hot food stuff.
• During operation of the equipment there
is the possibility that the surrounding floor
become slippery, attention and use suita-
ble means to avoid falling.

materials.These are :chrome-nickel stainless steel, alumi-
nium, copper, brass, glass, stoneware.
• Pots with a diameter smaller than approx. 12cm are not de-
tected by the system and the appliance will therefore not
switch on.
• Use pots with a maximum diameter of 28cm for maximum
heating efficiency.
• Do not leave the hotplates switched on with no pan or an
empty pan in place.
• Take care when moving pots on the hob.Dropping items on
the glass ceramic hob may cause irreparable damage.
