EN
This hotplate is designed for domestic use
only. These hotplates are for cooking food
and drink only, and none of their
components contain asbestos.
Residual heat
The cooking zones of the hotplate may
remain hot for a few minutes after use.
An “H” will appear on the display while
they are still hot. Do not touch these
areas while the “H” is lit up.
Child safety system
Your hotplate has a child safety system
which blocks its functioning during or
after the cooking process (see the
section on using the child safety
system). Remember to unblock the
safety system before using the appliance
again.
For pacemaker and active implant users
The functioning of the hotplate complies
with current electromagnetic interference
regulations, and it also totally complies
with legal requirements (89/336/EEC
directives).
To prevent any interference occurring
between your hotplate and a pacemaker,
the pacemaker must be designed and
regulated in accordance with the
applicable standard.
To this effect we can only guarantee
the conformity of our own product.
With regard to pacemaker conformity
and any incompatibilities that may
arise, please consult the pacemaker
manufacturer or your doctor.
Electrical hazard
Always ensure that no electrical
appliance cables near the hotplate are in
contact with the cooking zones.
If you should note any damage to the glass
surface of the hotplate, disconnect the
appliance immediately to avoid risk of
electric shock.
To do this, remove the fuses or switch off the
circuit-breaker. Do not use the hotplate
again until the glass top has been replaced.

••CHOOSING A LOCATION
Your appliance must be fitted so that it can
be plugged into an accessible electrical
socket.
There must be a minimum distance of 4 cm
(area A) between the edge of the hotplate
and the wall (or partition) beside it or behind it.
This appliance can easily be mounted on
top of a kitchen fitting, an oven or a built-in
domestic appliance.
However you must check that the air inlets
and outlets are kept clear (see the section
“Description of the hotplate”).
The hotplate’s electronic circuits must be
cooled by a draught of fresh air, as shown
in the diagram.
Important:
You must ensure that the hotpla-
te’s air inlets are always kept clear.
Wherever your hotplate is installed, it
will always require sufficient ventilation.
There must be an air inlet at the rear
of your induction hotplate and an air
outlet at the front, with a minimum
size of 5 mm.
Some advice:
If your hotplate is installed above
an oven, its thermal safety devices will
prevent it from being used at the same
time as the oven in pyrolytic mode.
The hotplate is equipped with a safety
system to prevent overheating.
This safety device may be activated if
the hotplate is installed above an oven
with insufficient insulation, for exam-
ple. A series of dashes will appear on
the display in the control areas. If this
happens, we recommend you improve
the hotplate’s ventilation by making a
hole in the side of the cabinet it is ins-
talled in.

••ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
These hotplates must be connected to the
mains supply with a plug and socket compl-
ying with publication CIS 60083 or an omni-
polar cut-off device in compliance with the
applicable regulations for electrical
installations.
When the hotplate is powered, or Blue after
an prolonged electricity cut, a code will light
up on the control panel. You should wait
around 30 seconds until this information
disappears before using the hotplate. (It is
normal for this to appear on the display: it is
for use by the after-sales servicing staff if
the need should arise. It is not intended for
the hotplate user.)
400V 2N -16A electrical connection
Separate the 2 phase wires L1 and
L2 before connecting the hotplate.
If the power cord is damaged, for safety
reasons it must be replaced by either the
manufacturer, the after-sales servicing
staff or a similarly qualified person.
If a 400 V 2N three-phase type connection
is being used, in case of hotplate malfunc-
tioning check that the neutral wire is
correctly connected.

2 / USING YOUR HOTPLATE
56
EN
The induction principle is based on a
magnetic phenomenon.
When you stand a pan on one of the
cooking zones and switch on the appliance,
the hotplate’s electronic circuits generate
“induced” currents in the base of the pan,
instantly increasing its temperature.
This heat is then transmitted to the food
which is simmered or brought quickly to the
boil depending on which power setting you
choose.
Pans.
Most pans are compatible with induction
cookers. Only pans made of glass, ear-
thenware, aluminium (without a special
base), copper and certain non-magnetic
stainless steels are unsuitable for induction
cooking. We suggest you choose pans with
a thick, flat bottom. The heat is distributed
much better in this type of pan and the food
will be cooked more evenly.

••WHICH COOKING ZONE
SHOULD BE USED WITH
WHICH PAN?
Some tips:
To check whether a pan is suitable for
induction cooking:
Place the pan on one of the cooking zones
and turn the power setting to 4.
If the display remains steady, the pan is
compatible.
If it flashes, the pan cannot be used for
induction cooking.
You can also use a magnet with the pan. If
it “sticks” to the bottom of the pan, the pan
is suitable for induction cooking.

Important:
•When “PC” (preheating) appears on
the display, if you do not adjust the power
setting the cooking zone will switch off.
The preheating time is calculated
automatically by the hotplate itself,
depending on the power setting selected.
The preheating function cannot be used
with a power setting of any lower than 6.
The preselection buttons cannot be used
for this function.
When preheating is underway, if you
press any of the power setting buttons
this will cancel out the preheating and the
hotplate will go back into classic power
adjustment mode.
Some advice:
If you are using several pans on the
hotplate at the same time, preference
should be given to cooking zones on
different sides of the hotplate. If you use
cooking zones on the same side, using the
booster button in one zone will
automatically limit the power of the other
zone shown on the display. This automatic
limitation also applies to the preheating
function.
••PREHEATING
This function allows you to quickly raise the
cooking temperature and then continue
cooking at the chosen power setting.
To use it:
Select power setting 12 and then switch
on the “PC” preheating function to
provide extra power by pressing the “+”
button again. “PC” will appear on the
display.
While it remains steady on the display,
you can adjust the power setting for
cooking.
You will hear a beep to confirm the
adjustment.
“PC” and the power setting selected will
alternate on the display. This is the
“preheating” phase.
At the end of the automatic preheating
cycle, the hotplate display will only show
the cooking power you have preselected.
It is now functioning in classic cooking
mode.

••SETTING THE TIME
SWITCHES
Each cooking zone has its own time switch,
which can be started up as soon as the par-
ticular cooking zone is switched on. To start
up a time switch or alter it, press the time
switch “+“ or “-” button. To make it easier to
adjust very long cooking times, you can
turn it directly to 99 minutes by pressing the
“-” button at the start. When the cooking
time has elapsed, a 0 will appear on the dis-
play and a beep will sound. To erase this
information, press any of the control but-
tons for the particular cooking zone. If none
of the buttons are pressed, it will stop auto-
matically after a few moments. To stop the
time switch manually, press the “+” and “-”
buttons at the same time, or use the “-” but-
ton to return to 0.
••USING THE “CHILD SAFETY”
SYSTEM
Your hotplate is equipped with a safety
system which prevents the control buttons
from working the appliance when it is swit-
ched off (for cleaning, for example) or when
cooking is underway (so that your settings
cannot be altered). For safety reasons, only
the “stop” buttons are always enabled, which
means you can switch off a cooking zone
even when it is blocked.
How do I use the blocking system?
Press and hold down the block button until
the LED above it lights up and you hear a
confirmation beep.
Hotplate blocked during functioning
The display for the cooking zones being
used will alternate between the power set-
ting and the block symbol
If you press the power setting or time switch
buttons of the cooking zones in use, the
block LED will light up. It will switch off after
a few seconds.
Only the “stop” button is always enabled.
For the cooking zones that are not in use,
the symbol and the LED light up when
you press the “on/off buttons. This will
disappear from the display after a few
seconds.
The hotplate is blocked when it is stop-
ped
The LED above the block button is switched
off. If you briefly press this button, it will light
up. The LED lights up when you press an
on/off button of any of the cooking zones.
How do I unblock it?
Press the block button until the LED swit-
ches off. You will hear two confirmation
beeps.
Some advice : Remember to unblock
your hotplate before using it again (see the
section on “Using the Child Safety
System”).

A steady dot will appear and the power settings memorised will appear one by one.
The power setting and time switch values will appear steadily on the display, and the
cooking process will begin.
NOTE
When the cooking process has finished, 0 will appear on the display and every 5
seconds a beep will sound for a few moments. To erase this information, press any of
the control buttons for the “MEMO” cooking zone.
When you use the MEMO system, you can return to normal functioning at any time (exit
MEMO) by pressing the “-”, “+” or “preselection” buttons to change your adjustment, or
the “stop” button to stop the cooking process.
To replace the data stored in the memory, proceed as described in the paragraph «How
to memorise a cooking cycle».
Functioning:
Up to 5 successive cooking stages can be recorded in the same “MEMO” cooking cycle.
After the fifth phase, the word “no” will appear on the display and the stage will not be
recorded.
Each stage must last a minimum of 10 seconds for it to be recorded.
The time switch can only be used at the last cooking stage memorised.
The preheating function is not available with the “MEMO” function.
Use of the “MEMO” function will take priority if you are using the two cooking zones on
the same side of the hotplate. At high power settings, the power setting of the opposite
cooking zone may be limited. If this happens, a beep will sound.

••SAFETY SYSTEMS DURING
FUNCTIONING
Residual heat
After intensive use of the hotplate, the coo-
king zones that have just been used may
remain hot for several minutes. An “H” will
appear on the display while it is still hot. Do
not touch these zones while the “H” is on
the display.
Temperature limiter
Each cooking zone is equipped with a
safety sensor which constantly monitors the
base of the pan. If you accidentally leave an
empty pan on a cooking zone that is swit-
ched on, the sensor will automatically adapt
the hotplate power setting to prevent any
risk of damage to the pan or the hotplate.
“Small objects” safety system
Any single small-sized object (forks, spo-
ons, rings, etc.) placed on the hotplate will
not be detected as a pan. The display will
flash and the power will not be switched on.
Important:
Several small-sized objects placed on
a cooking zone at the same time may be
detected as a pan.
The power setting display will remain on
steadily and it may heat up the objects.
Boilover protection
The hotplate will switch off,
a special symbol (shown on
the right) will appear on the
display or a beep will sound
(depending on the model), if
any of these 3 cases occur:
A liquid boils over onto the control buttons.
A wet cloth is placed on the buttons.
A metal object is placed on the control
buttons.
Clean the hotplate or remove the object and
start up the cooking process again.
Auto-Stop system
If you are cooking and forget to switch off
the hotplate, its “Auto-stop system” safety
function will automatically switch off the
cooking zone you have left on after a preset
time has elapsed (from 1 – 10 hours depen-
ding on the power setting selected). If this
safety system is triggered, the symbols
“AS” or “A” will appear on the control area
display and a beep will sound for around 2
minutes to indicate that the zone has been
switched off. To stop the beep, simply press
any of the control buttons. A double confir-
mation beep will sound.

3 / ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OF YOUR HOTPLATE
••HOTPLATE CARE
Avoid any knocks from pans:
The vitro-ceramic glass surface is very
hard-wearing, but it is not unbreakable.
Do not place hot pan lids directly on the
hotplate, as a “suction” effect may occur
which will damage the vitro-ceramic top.
Avoid scraping it with kitchen utensils as
this could eventually cause the decorative
part of the vitro-ceramic top to be worn off.
Do not stand pans on the frame or the
embellisher (depending on the model).
Avoid pans with a rough or bumpy base:
particles may become stuck to them and
cause stains or scratches to the hotplate.
These defects will not cause your hotplate
to break down or function incorrectly, and
they are therefore excluded from the
guarantee.
Do not store maintenance products or
flammable substances in the kitchen fitting
under the hotplate.
Never heat up unopened tins of food as
they could explode. This precaution applies
to all forms of cooking.
Never use aluminium foil for cooking. Never
stand products wrapped in aluminium foil or
on an aluminium tray on the hotplate, as the
aluminium will melt and cause permanent
damage to your cooker.
Never store any objects on top of the
hotplate (accidental switch-on, scratches,
etc. could occur).
Never use a steam cleaner with the
hotplate, as the steam jet could damage it.
