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 conformity with the regulations in force.
1.1 THE PRINCIPLE OF INDUCTION
The system of cooking by induction is based on the physical
phenomenon of magnetic induction.
The fundamental feature of this system is direct transfer of heat
energy from the generator to the pan without intermediate
means (different from traditional cooker tops see fig.1).
1.2 ADVANTAGES
If you compare your electric cooker tops, with the induction
cooker top, the result will be:
- Safer: low temperature on the glass surface
- Quicker: brief heating times.
- More precise: the top reacts immediately to your
commands
- More efficient: 90% of the energy absorbed is tran sfor med
into heat.
Furthermore, once the pan has been removed from the hob,
heat transmission is stopped immediately, thereby preventing
the needless dispersion of heat.
The system also automatically recognises the various
diameters of all pans and uses a suitable power level for
each size.
This means that we are able to use pans of various sizes,
provided that the pan diameter is no more than 10% larger
- or 40% smaller - than the printed detail marked on the hob
(fig. 7B).
Caution: if you are using a pan with a diameter which is more
than 40% smaller than the printing marked on the glass, the
cooking zone may not be activated.
1.3 COOKING VESSELS fig.7
Cooking by induction uses magnetism to generate heat. The
vessels must therefore contain iron.
Check if the vessel material is magnetic using a magnet.
Important:
To prevent permanent damage to the cooker surface, do
not use:
- pans with bases that are not perfectly flat.
- metal pans with enamelled bases.
- Do not use pans with rough bases as they may scratch the
hob's surface
SAFETY WARNINGS
This apparatus is not suitable for use by children or persons
who need supervision.
Do not allow children to play with the apparatus. Before using
the induction cooker top it is important to check that the
apparatus is compatible with anyone who has a pacemaker
and active surgical implants.
ENGLISH
Before connecting the appliance to the electricity
supply:
- Check that the voltage and power values listed on the
data plate (positioned on the lower part of the appliance)
are compatible with the electricity supply and socket. If you
have any doubts, please consult a qualified electrician for
assistance.
IMPORTANT
- metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons or lids must not
be placed on the cooker surface as they can get hot.
- after use, switch the cooker off using the control device and
do not rely on the pan detector.
- avoid liquid spilling, therefore to boil or heat liquids reduce
the heat supply.
- do not leave the heating elements switched on with empty
vessels or without vessels.
- when you have finished cooking, switch off the relative
resistance using the control indicated below.
- never use aluminium foil for cooking, or never place
products wrapped in aluminium foil onto the cooking surface.
The aluminium would melt and damage your apparatus
irreversibly.
- Never heat a tin or can of food without opening it – it could
explode! This warning applies to hobs of all types.
ATTENTION: Steam cleaners must not be used.
ATTENTION: If the surface is cracked, switch the ap paratus
off to prevent electric shocks
This appliance conforms to the European Directive EC/2002/96,
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). By making
sure that this appliance is disposed of in a suitable manner,
the user is helping to prevent potential damage to the
environment or to public health.
The symbol on the product or on the accompanying
paperwork indicates that the appliance should not be treated
as domestic waste, but should be delivered to a suitable
electric and electronic appliance recycling collection point.
Follow local guidelines when disposing of waste. For more
information on the treatment, re-use and recycling of this
product, please contact your local authority, domestic waste
collection service or the shop where the appliance was
purchased.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions address specialised installers and serve
as a guide for installation, adjustment and maintenance in
conformity with the laws and regulations in force.
POSITIONING (fig.6)
The appliance is made for fixing into a worktop, as shown in
the relevant figure. Apply the supplied sealant to the entire
perimeter of the hob and insert it into the fitment hole (for
sizing see fig. 6B). Fix the appliance into the worktop with the 4
stays, rotating them according to the top's depth (fig. 6A).
If the underside of the appliance will be accessible after
installation, a separator panel G (fig. 9A) will need to be
mounted maintaining the distances shown (fig. 9B). If the
appliance is installed over an oven the panel is not necessary
(fig. 10A - 10B).
