Safety and warning indications
Warning for people wearing pacemakers:
Keep in mind that when the appliance is being used an electromagnetic field forms in
the immediate proximity. There is therefore a remote possibility that the operation of
the pacemaker might be affected.
If in doubt, contact the pacemaker manufacturer or your GP.
The electromagnetic field of the hob during operation can affect the operation of ma-
gnetisable objects. Credit cards, life-saving devices, pocket calculators etc. should not
be in the proximity of a hob when in operation.
Metal objects stored in the drawer underneath the appliance may become hot in case of
prolonged use. Do not store metal objects in a drawer immediately underneath the hob.
The appliance is equipped with cooling fans. If there is a drawer under a built-in applian-
ce, a separation must be ensured between the drawer and the bottom of the appliance,
for appropriate hob ventilation and to make sure the fans are not be obstructed.
Never use two saucepans or pans on the same cooking zone, or a rectangular cooking
zone, or a PowerFlex cooking area.
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the
equipment by removing the plug or switching off the main switch.
Do not use the hood with wet hands or bare feet.
Always check that all electrical parts (lights, extractor fan) are off when the equipment is
not being used.
Do not rest objects on top of the motorised fins.
The maximum overall weight of any objects placed or hung (if applicable) on the hood must
not exceed 1.5 Kg.
Always supervise the cooking process during the use of deep-fryers: Overheated oil can
catch fire.
Never use the hood without the metal anti-grease filters: in this case, grease and dirt will
deposit in the equipment and compromise its operation.
Accessible parts of the hood can be hot when used at the same time as the cooking ap-
pliances.
Do not carry out any cleaning operations when parts of the hood are still hot.
There can be a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out according to the instructions and
products indicated in this booklet.
Disconnect the main switch when the equipment is not used for long periods of time.
If other appliances that use gas or other fuels are being used at the same
time (boiler, stove, fireplaces, etc.), make sure the room where the fumes
are discharged is well-ventilated, in compliance with the local regulations.
INSTALLATION
only intended for qualified personnel
Before installing the hood, carefully read the chapter 'SAFETY IN-
STRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS' .
TECHNICAL FEATURES
The technical specifications are exhibited on the labels located inside the hood.
POSITIONING
Do not install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to outdoor environment (rain, wind,
etc.).
COOKER
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
(only intended for qualified personnel)
Disconnect the equipment from mains power network before carrying out
any operation on the cooker.
Make sure that electric wires inside the cooker are not disconnected or cut:
in the event of damage, contact your nearest Servicing Department.
Refer to qualified personnel for electrical connections.
Connection must be carried out in compliance with the provisions of law in force.
Before connecting the cooker to the mains power network, check that:
• the mains voltage corresponds with the voltage indicated on the data plate located
inside the cooker;
• the electrical system is compliant and can withstand the load (see the technical specifi-
cations located inside the cooker);
• the power supply plug and cable do not come into contact with temperatures exceed-
ing 70 °C;
• the power supply system is effectively and properly connected to earth in compliance
with regulations in force.
• the socket used to connect the cooker is within reach.
In case of:
• devices fitted with cables without a plug: the type of plug to use is a ''standardised'' one.
The wires must be connected as follows: yellow-green for earthing, blue for neutral and
brown for the phase. The plug must be connected to an adequate safety socket.
• fixed equipment not provided with a power supply cable and plug, or any other device
that ensures disconnection from the electrical mains, with an opening gap of the con-
tacts that enables total disconnection in overvoltage category III conditions.
Said disconnection devices must be provided in the mains power supply in compliance
with installation regulations.
The yellow/green earth cable must not be cut off by the switch.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with the safety regulations.
