Before using the hob
To make the most of your
new appliance, please read
the user instructions
carefully and keep them to
hand for future
consultation.
Installation - Technical information for the Installer
Cooktop
The cooktop must be set
into a worktop between
20 mm and 45 mm deep.
If there is no oven
beneath the cooktop,
insert a separator panel
at a minimum distance
of 20 mm from the
bottom of the hob.
If there is an oven
installed under the
cooktop, make sure that
it is manufactured by us
and equipped with a
cooling system.
Please make sure that
the supply cord of the
cooktop does not come
in contact with the oven
installed under it.
Note: After installation, make
sure the cooktop power cable
does not come into contact
with the metal burner box
and the oven (if installed)
with tangential fan below it.
If the cooktop is to be
installed next to a
column unit, leave a
distance of at least
150 mm from the edge
of the hob.
The outer surfaces of the
furniture or appliances
next to the cooktop
must be heat resistant
(heat protection Y,
according to local
standards).
Installation must comply
with current local
regulations.
In the room where the
cooktop is installed, there
must be enough air to
allow the gas to burn
correctly.
The natural flow of air
must take place through
an adequate opening, that
must be:
- permanent, made on one
of the outside walls of the
room and communicating
with the exterior in the
area away from sources of
pollution;
- built so as to ensure that its
openings, both on the
inside and on the outside,
cannot be obstructed,
intentionally or
accidentally;
- protected by a metal grid
or mesh that does not
reduce its working section;
- situated near the floor
level and positioned so as
not to interfere with the
operation of the fume
exhaust devices.

Installation - Technical information for the Installer
Electrical connection
Assembly
The installation of the
cooktop must be carried
out without grids to
avoid any deformation
of the appliance.
Position the brackets
into the relevant holes
and tighten by means of
the screws supplied.
Make an opening in the
worktop, respecting the
dimensions indicated in
the separate Product
Description Sheet.
Apply the gasket
supplied along the
outer perimeter of the
worktop, as shown in
the figure. Also make
sure that the ends of the
gasket get in touch with
each other without
overlapping.
Install the cooktop into
the worktop.
Important
The power supply cable and
plug must be suitable for the
power absorption of the
cooktop and that cable must
be long enough to permit the
upward extraction of the
cooktop.
Installation must be carried
out in compliance with the
regulations of the local
electricity supply company.
Make sure that the voltage
indicated on the rating plate
corresponds to the voltage in
your home.
Regulations
require that the appliance
is earthed
: use conductors
(including the earth
conductor) of the appropriate
size only. The manufacturer
declines all responsibility for
injury to persons or animals
and for damage to property
resulting from failure to
observe the above
regulations.
The appliance must be
connected to the
electricity supply by
means of an all-pole
disconnect switch with
minimum contact gap of
3 mm.
If necessary, the electrical
power cable must be replaced
exclusively with a power cable
having identical
characteristics to the original
supplied by the manufacturer.
This operation must be
performed by the After Sales
Service or a qualified
electrician.
Warning
: The power supply
cable must be long enough to
allow the cooktop to be
removed from the worktop
and must be positioned so as
to avoid damage or
overheating caused by
contact with the base.

Connection to gas supply
The gas supply system
must comply with local
regulations.
The connection of the
cooktop to the gas pipe
network or gas cylinder
must be bade by means of
a rigid copper or steel pipe
with fittings complying
with local regulations.
The max. length of the
hose is 2 m.
Important
If a stainless steel hose is used,
it must be installed so as not
to touch any movable part of
the furniture. It must pass
through an area where there
are no obstructions and
where it is possible to inspect
it on all its length.
Adjustment to
different types of gas
If a different type of gas
from the one indicated in
the rating plate is used,
the cooktop must be
adapted to it, proceeding
as follows:
Replace the injectors with
the suitable ones for the
gas used (see the separate
Product Description
Sheet).
Adjust the minimum
settings of the taps.
Adjustment of
minimum setting
After replacing the injectors,
light the burner and remove
the knob. Turn the tap to the
minimum setting and insert a
screwdriver in the rod:
tighten to reduce the flame,
loosen to increase the flame.
For gas G30/G31, tighten
the adjustment screw
fully.
The flame must be small,
uniform and regular all
around the burner crown.
Finally, check that the flame
does not go out by rapidly
turning the tap from the
maximum setting to the
minimum. For burners with a
safety device, check that the
flame slightly licks the
thermocouple. Make sure
that the adjustment is correct
by leaving the burner alight
for a few minutes. If it goes
out, increase the minimum
setting.

be 100% recycled, as
confirmed by the recycling
symbol ( ).
2. Products
The appliances are built
from recyclable materials. If
you decide to scrap the
appliances act responsibly
and observe local waste
disposal by laws. Cut off the
power cords so that the
appliances cannot be
connected to the mains.

Precautions and general recommendations
Before any maintenance
on the appliance
disconnect it from the
electrical power supply.
Keep children away from
the appliance when in use
and when it has just been
switched off.
The appliance must be
repaired or adjusted
exclusively by a qualified
technician.
Make sure that the
electrical wires of other
electrical appliances near
the cooktop do not come
into contact with hot parts.
The use of a gas appliance
produces heat and
humidity in the room.
Ensure that the room is
well ventilated or install an
extractor hood with
exhaust duct.
In case of prolonged use,
additional ventilation may
be needed (opening a
window or increasing the
extraction force of the
hood).
Do not switch on
burners when there is
no pan in position.
Do not leave the appliance
unattended when frying
food: risk of fire.
After use, ensure that the
knobs are in position
(off), and close the main
gas delivery valve or the
gas cylinder valve.
Warning: The protective
rubber feet on the
panstand grids represent a
choking hazard for young
children. After cleaning
the panstand grids, please
ensure that all the rubber
feet are correctly fitted.

Care and maintenance
Troubleshooting Guide
1. The burner does not
work:
Is the main gas delivery valve?
Has the delivery of the
town gas (methane) been
suspended?
Are the openings of the
burner clogged?
Have the cap and burner
been positioned correctly
after cleaning?
2. The burner fails to
remain lit:
Repeat the ignition
operation, turning the
knob to the position with
the small flame symbol.
3. The electric ignition
device does not work:
Is there a power failure?
Clean the cooktop, when it is
cool, after each use. This will
prevent the build-up of dirt
and make cleaning easier.
Use a clean cloth,
absorbent kitchen wipes
and washing up liquid or a
specific inox cleaner.
Do not use abrasive
products, bleach, oven-
cleaner spray or pan
scourers.
Food spills should be
cleaned off before they
bake onto the surface.
Do not leave acid or
alkaline substances, such as
vinegar, salt or lemon
juice, etc. onto the surface.
Note: The high temperatures
of the flames, may affect, in a
long term use, the colour the
surface around the burners.
Cleaning the burners
1. Raise the cap and remove
it.
2. Extract the burner from its
housing by pulling it up.
3. Soak the burner and the
cap in hot water and liquid
detergent. (Do not wash
into a dishwasher).
4. Rinse out and dry carefully.
5. Ensure that none of its
opening is clogged.
6. Reposition the burner and
the cap.
Note: To avoid damaging the
electric ignition device, do not
use it when the burners are
not in place.
