General Instructions
Care must be taken when using the appliance because the cooking surfaces
are very hot.
The hot plates are equipped with a temperature limiting device which cuts
off the electric power supply when the temperature reaches the maximum
value allowed.
Turning the hot plates on & off
Switch the power on using the switch upstream of the appliance.
Turn knob "A" fig.2 of the desired plate, until it corresponds with the dial on
the panel in the chosen position; the relevant green luminous indicator
green "B" fig.2 on the control panel and index "F" fig.1 on the cooktop will
light.
The maximum heating power is produced with the knob in position "
minimum power is produced in position "1".
General cleaning
The appliance must be cold and the electrical power turned off to
clean it. In any case, if anomalies are noticed or suspected, turn the
appliance off and disconnect it from the mains. Call the authorised repair
service.
Unauthorised persons should never attempt to repair the appliance, or
carry out maintenance. Tampering with the appliance voids the
warranty!
The removable parts should be washed separately with warm water and
detergent, then rinsed in running water. The steel parts can be cleaned with a
damp cloth and with a non-abrasive detergent and then dried by using a soft, dry
cloth; for stubborn deposits use hot water and vinegar. Do not use harsh or
abrasive detergents to clean the stainless steel parts. Iron cleaning pads should
not be used as they cause the formation of rust. For the same reason, avoid
contact with ferrous materials. When cleaning, avoid using abrasive paper or
Maintenance
The appliance needs no specific maintenance besides normal cleaning; we do however suggest having it checked once a year by the assistance centre for which,
we recommend drawing up a maintenance contract.
Ecology and environment
Our appliances are studied and optimised, with lab tests, to provide high
performance and yields. However, in order to reduce energy consumption
(electricity, gas and water), we suggest not using the appliance for any length of
time if it is empty or under conditions that compromise optimum yield.
All packaging materials are environment-friendly. They can be kept without
creating problems or burnt in a waste incinerator plant. The following plastic
components can be recycled:
Polyethylene: external packaging material and/or pluribol film

cloth; instead and only in special cases you can use pumice stone powder; we
recommend using sponges (ex. Scotch) to remove stubborn deposits.
Cleaning the pyroceramic cooktop
The pyroceramic cooktop can be cleaned using a scraper with a sharp blade to
remove the residues of food. Clean the cooktop with a detergent, wash and dry.
To avoid damaging the cooktop remove any traces of sugar, aluminium foil
plastics immediately with the scaper; don't use abrasive or corrosive products,
the blade of the scraper must be in contact with the cooktop along the entire
length of the blade; don't use the corner of the scraper. To minimise the
emission of polluting substances in the environment we suggest cleaning the
appliance with products that are at least 90% biodegradable.
Malfunctions do not always depend on the quality of the components used.
These appliances are manufactured using top quality components. Malfunctions
may be caused by voltage surges, dust and/or dirt getting into the components.
At the end of the appliance's useful life, dispose of it properly.
90% of each appliance is made of metal (stainless steel, iron, aluminated sheet,
etc.) hence it can be recycled by the relative recycling organisations in
compliance with the standards in force in your country.

The limiting device is automatically reactivated.
We recommend using pots with smooth flat bottoms to avoid scratching the
pyroceramic cooktop. Turn the hot plate on after placing the pan on it. Avoid
spilling cold liquids on the hot plate when it is hot.
Turn the knob to position "0". Switch the power off using the switch
upstream of the appliance.
