Economic Community directives:
- 2006/95/EEC dated 12/12/06 (Low Voltage) and subsequent
amendments;
- 2004/108/EEC dated 15/12/04 (Electromagnetic

General safety
!
Make sure that the air inlet behind the fan grille is never
obstructed. The built-in hob should, in fact, be provided
with suitable ventilation for the cooling of the electronic
components used in the appliance.
!
We advise against the installation of an induction hob above
an under-the-counter refrigerator (heat) or above a washing
machine (vibrations). In fact, there would be insufficient space
for the ventilation of electronic components.
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the
appliance exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot or with wet or
damp hands and feet.
• The appliance must be used by adults only for the
preparation of food, in accordance with the instructions
provided in this booklet. Do not use the hob as a worktop
or chopping board.
• The glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical shocks,
but it may crack (or even break) if hit with a sharp object
such as a tool. If this happens, disconnect the appliance
from the electricity mains immediately and contact a
Service Centre.
• Ensure that power supply cables of other electrical
appliances do not come into contact with the hot parts of
the hob.
• Remember that the cooking zones remain relatively hot for
at least thirty minutes after they have been switched off.
An indicator light provides a warning when residual heat
is present (see Start-up and use).
• Keep any object which could melt away from the hob,
for example plastic and aluminium objects, or products
with a high sugar content. Be especially careful when
using plastic film and aluminium foil or packaging: if
placed on surfaces which are still hot, they may cause
serious damage to the hob.
• Always make sure that pan handles are turned towards
the centre of the hob in order to avoid accidental burns.
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug
from the mains socket; do not pull on the cable.
10
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work
without having disconnected the appliance from the
electricity mains.
• The appliance should not be operated by people
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capacities, by inexperienced individuals or
by anyone who is not familiar with the product. These
individuals should, at the very least, be supervised
by someone who assumes responsibility for their
safety or receive preliminary instructions relating to
the operation of the appliance.
• For the attention of wearers of pacemakers or other
active implants:
The hob complies with all current standards on
electromagnetic interference.
Your induction hob is therefore perfectly in keeping
with legal requirements (89/336/CEE directives). It
is designed not to create interference on any other
electrical apparatus being used on condition that
the apparatus in question also complies with this
legislation.
Your induction hob generates short-range magnetic
fields.
To avoid any interference between your induction
hob and a pacemaker, the latter must be designed to
comply with relevant regulations.
In this respect, we can only guarantee our own
product conformity. Please consult the pacemaker
manufacturer or your doctor concerning its conformity
or any possible incompatibility.
• Do not let children play with the appliance.
• Do not place metal objects (knives, spoons, pan lids,
etc.) on the hob as they may become hot.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by
means of an external timer or separate remote-
control system.
Disposal
• When disposing of packaging material: observe local
legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that
household appliances should not be disposed of using
the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances
should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost
of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine,
while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and
to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all
products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding
separated waste collection.
For further information relating to the correct disposal of
exhausted household appliances, owners may contact
the public service provided or their local dealer.
