ADVICE FOR THE INSTALLER
IMPORTANT
Appliance installation and maintenance must only be carried out by QUALIFIED
TECHNICIANS and in compliance with the local safety standards.
Fa
ilure to observe this rule will invalidate the warranty.
This induction hob caters for all kind of cooking, with its electromagnetic
cooking zones, and its micro-computerised controls and multi-functions.
Manufactured with specially imported materials, the induction hob is extremely
user-frie
ndly, durable and safe.
The induction hob comprises a coil, a hotplate made of ferromagnetic material
a
n
d a control system. Electrical current generates a powerful magnetic field
through the coil. This produces a large number of vortices which in turn
generate heat which is then transmitted through the cooking zone to the
cooking vessel.
Safety
This hob was specially designed for domestic use. In its constant search to
improve its products, reserves the right to modify any technical, programme
or aesthetic aspects of the appliance at any time.
When a unsuitable size or non-magnetic pan (e.g. aluminium), or some other
small item (e.g. knife, fork, key) has been left on the cooking zone, the
corresponding indicator will appear a " " and the cooking zone will switch
off after 1 minute.

3. Residual heat warning
When the hob has been operating for some time, The letter “H” appears to
warn you that the cooking zones are hot.
4. Auto shut down
