Instruction for the User
Use of electric plates
To switch on the plates, turn the relevant knob to the
required position.
Pilot lamp
The pilot light signals the connection of the electric plate.
Electric plate with 7 position
knob
The plates are regulated by a 7 position switch:
Position 0: off
Position 1: minimum disbursement of heat
Position 6: maximum disbursement of heat
In the intermediate positions, 2-3-4-5, increasing power
values are obtained.
When cooking with fats or oils maximum
care must be taken as these can self-ignite
when over-heated.
Normal and rapid plates: For best results we
advise you to initially regulate the switch to “rapid”
to accelerate the heating of the plate and then turn
the switch to the position most suitable for the
food to be cooked.
Very low 1 To keep food hot. To melt
butter or chocolate.
Low 2 For the preparation of sauces,
casseroles, puddings, fried
eggs.
Moderate 3 For vegetable soups. To thaw
food, boil water or milk.
Medium 4 For potatoes, fresh
vegetables, pasta, minestro-
ne, stocks, doughnuts, fish.
High 5 Omelettes, steak, pancakes.
Very high 6 Steak, meat in breadcrumbs,
fried food.

Before the first use
Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove
any protective material, which were put on in the factory.
It is important to note that the plate may smoke a little
and produce a slightly unpleasant odour when used for
the first time. This is quite normal and will disappear after
a few minutes.
Practical hints
When cooking by electric, saucepans should have a thick
base and be perfectly flat in order to ensure total contact
with the plate and, consequently, perfect conduction (Fig.
1).
Occasionally, saucepans have a thin bottom and these
loose their shape over a period of time. In this manner
two of the qualities of the electric plate are lost: the even
distribution of heat and the saving of energy. Cooking time
is also lengthier. We therefore recommend that you
acquire a battery of kitchenware specifically for use with
electric plates. Furthermore, these particular saucepans
are easy to use and clean.
Recipients in heat-resistent glass (pyrex) or in oven-proof
pottery can be placed directly on the plates if their
instructions for use are followed.
As regards the size of the saucepans: for best results,
the plate and the saucepan should have the same
diameter. The diameter of the saucepan may be slightly
larger; a smaller diameter is not advised.
Never leave the plates on without a saucepan! Switch off
the plate just before the end of cooking time. The heat
accumulated by the plate will finish cooking the food and
save energy.
Hints and tips

Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance.
This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam
or with a steam cleaning machine.
To ensure the long-life of the hob, we advise you to clean
it regularly. Naturally, before cleaning the plates, allow
them to cool.
Do not acquire the bad habit of wiping over the plates with
a damp cloth whilst they are still hot. Although they will
stand up to such teatment, fragments of the cloth could
remain. The plates and their bases can, however, be
cleaned occasionally using fine sandpaper.
The base of the plates in special steel will stay
impeccable if cleaned with hot water and vinigar. We
advise you to grease the surface of the plates from time
to time with a non-acid fat (cooking oil, sewing machine
oil or vaseline). Products for care and maintenance are
available commercially.
Clean the control panel with a damp cloth, do not use
abrasive products. The knobs can be removed by lifting
to facilitate cleaning.
The enamelled part of the hob can be cleaned with warm
water and detergent.
Although the enamel will tollerate acids, we advise you
to quickly remove splashes of vinigar, lemon and all acid
substances.
Also immediately remove all residue of fat or other to
avoid any incrustation. If incrustations have formed leave
the crust immersed in hot water. Never use metal
brushes, knives or similar objects which could scratch
the enamel. Avoid using acid detergents. Clean steel
hobs with specific detergents.

Insertion and assembly
The hobs can be installed in a kitchen unit with an
opening for insertion of the dimensions illustrated in Fig.
3.
The appliance is of type X and has been designed to be
built into or fitted next to the unit according to the
regulations in force (I.E.C. 335.2.6). The side walls of the
unit must not exceed the height of the hob. Avoid
installing the appliance in the proximity of inflammable
materials (e.g. curtains, tea towels, etc.).
The fixture of the hob to the unit must be carried
out as follows:
! Position the relevant sealings, supplied, on the edge
of the opening predisposed for installation, taking care
that the edges meet without overlapping;
! Install the hob in the opening of the unit taking care
in centring.
! Fix the hob with the appropriate clips (Fig. 2).
The edge of the hob forms a double labyrinth seal which
provides a total guarantee against the infiltration of
liquids.

Kitchen unit with door
Proper arrangements must be taken in
designing the forniture unit, in order to avoid
any contact with the bottom of the hob which
can be heated when it is operated. The
recommended solution is shown in Fig. 4.
The panel fitted under the hob should be
easily removable to allow an easy access if
a technical assistance intervention is
needed.
Kitchen unit with oven
The hob recess dimensions must comply
the indication given in Figs. 3 and 5 and
must be provided with brackets to allow a
continuous supply of air.
To avoid overhating, the building in should be
carried out as shown in Figs. 3 and 6.
The hob's electric connection and the oven's
one must be carried out separately, both for
safety reasons and to allow the oven to be
easily taken off the unit.
In case a hood with lenght of 600 mm. is
fitted over the hob, the hanging furniture
units beside the hood must be placed at 550
mm. minimum from the hob, to allow the
fitting and the correct use of the lid, if
required (Fig. 3).

Electrical connection to the
terminal box
The appliance is fitted with a five pole terminal box whose
cables are predisposed for a 230 V monophase function
(Fig. 10).
In case of a different voltage, carry out the connection
as shown in Fig. 11.
The earth wire should be connected to the terminal
marked by the sign After having connected the wire
to the terminal secure it with a cable clip.
The connection must be carried out in conformity with the
regulations and dispositions of the laws in force. Before
connecting ensure that:
! the limiter valve and the electrical mains can support
the voltage of the appliance (see label).
! the power supply is correctly earthed according to
regulations in force.
! the omnipolar interrupter used can be easily reached
once the appliance has been installed.
The appliance is supplied without cable. Use a cable Type
HO5RR-F / H05V2V2 (T90), suitable for the existing
power suply, with a section suitable for the charge of a
normalized plug.
The cable must be fitted with three conductors. The earth
wire is coloured yellow/green. If a direct connection to the
mains is required an omnipolar interrupter with a minimum
opening of 3 mm between contacts should be interposed
between the appliance and the supply. The yellow/green
earth wire must not be interrupted by the interrupter. The
supply cable must be positioned in such a way that it will
at no point reach a temperature 50½C above that of room
temperature. After connection try out the heating
elements by allowing them to function for about three
minutes. The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the
accident prevention regulations are not respected.

However, a defect may still occur. Our consumer serv-
ices department will repair this upon request, either dur-
ing or after the guarantee period. The service life of the
appliance will not, however, be reduced as a result.
This declaration of guarantee terms is based on Euro-
pean Union Directive 99/44/EC and the provisions of
the Civil Code. The statutory rights that the consumer
has under this legislation are not affected by this decla-
ration of guarantee terms.
This declaration does not affect the vendor’s statutory
warranty to the end user. The appliance is guaranteed
within the context of and in adherence with the following
terms:
1. In accordance with provisions laid down in para-
graphs 2 to 15, we will remedy free of charge any
defect that occurs within 24 months from the date

11. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or
suspended in such a way that removing and replac-
ing them in the place where they are fitted takes
more than half an hour, the costs that result
therefrom will be charged for. Connected damage
caused by these removal and replacement opera-
tions will be the responsibility of the user.
12. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same
defect repeatedly is not conclusive, or if the repair
costs are considered disproportionate, in agree-
ment with the consumer, the defective appliance
may be replaced with another appliance of the
same value.
In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a
financial contribution calculated according to the
length of time it has been used.

normal guarantee period will be extended nor that
a new guarantee period begins.
14. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs,
limited to the same defect.
15. Except in the event where liability is legally im-
posed, this declaration of guarantee terms ex-
cludes any compensation for damage outside the
appliance for which the consumer wishes to assert
his rights. In the event of legally admitted liability,
compensation will not exceed the purchase price
paid for the appliance.
These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances
purchased and used in Belgium. For exported appli-
ances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy
