SAFETY GUIDELINES

We have designed this cooking hob for use by

private persons in their homes.

These cooking hobs are meant to be used

exclusively for cooking beverages and foods-

tuffs and do not contain any asbestos-based

materials.

••

Residual heat

A cooking zone can remain hot for several

minutes after use.

""HH""

is displayed during this period.

Avoid touching the hot areas during this time.

••

Child safety device

Your hob is equipped with a child safety

device that locks its operation after use or

during cooking (See "Using the Child

Safety Device" section).

Do not forget to unlock it before using the

hob again.

••

For users of pacemakers and

active implants

The functioning of the hob conforms to cur-

rent electromagnetic interference standards

and thus is in total compliance with legal

requirements (89/336/CEE directives).

In order to avoid interference between your

cooking hob and a pacemaker, your pacema-

ker must be designed and programmed in

compliance with the regulations that apply to

it.

Consequently, we can only guarantee that our

own product is compliant.

With regard to the compliance of the pacema-

ker or any potential incompatibility, you can

obtain information from the manufacturer or

your attending physician.

Electrical Danger

Ensure that the power cables of any

electrical appliances plugged in close to

the hob are not in contact with the cooking

zones.

If a crack appears in the glass worktop,

immediately disconnect your appliance to

avoid the risk of electric shock.

To do this, remove the fuses or use the cir-

cuit breaker.

Do not use your hob until you have repla-

ced the glass worktop.

Tip

If your oven is located below your hob,

the hob's thermal safety measures forbid

the simultaneous use of the hob and the

pyrolysis program of your oven.

Your hob is equipped with an anti-overhea-

ting safety device.

This safety can be activated, for example,

when the hob is installed over an oven that

is not sufficiently insulated. If this occurs, a

series of small lines appear in the control

panel. In this case, we recommend that you

increase the ventilation of your hob by crea-

ting an opening in the side of your cabinet

(8 cm x 5 cm) and/or that you install the

oven insulation kit (reference 75X1652) that

is available from the Post-Sales Service

Department.

Warning

You must ensure that the air intakes

located under your cooking appliance

remain clear at all times.

For all types of installation, your induction

hob needs proper ventilation.

••

PROPER POSITIONING

Your appliance should be positioned so that

the plug-in unit is accessible.

The distance between the edge of your

appliance and the side and rear walls (or par-

titions) must be at least four centimetres (area

A).

Your appliance can be easily integrated above

a cabinet, an oven or a build-in-ready house-

hold appliance. You must simply ensure that

the air intakes and air outlets are clear (See

"Description of Your Appliance" section).

BUILD-IN

Follow the diagram above.

Glue the foam seal underneath your appliance

by following the outline of the worktop upon

which your appliance will rest. This will allow

you to achieve an airtight seal with the work-

top.

Attach the clips to the hob.*

Warning

If the power cable is damaged, it

should be replaced by the manufacturer, its

after-sales service department or by a per-

son with similar qualifications to avoid dan-

ger.

For a 400 V 2N triphase hook-up, if your hob

malfunctions, check that the neutral conduc-

tor is properly connected.

These hobs must be connected to the power

grid via an electrical outlet that complies with

EIC publication 60083 or an all-pole cut-off

device that complies with installation regula-

tions in effect.

When power is first supplied to your hob, or

after an extended power outage, an indicator

light will appear on the control panel. It auto-

matically disappears after approximately 30

seconds, or as soon as any touch control on

the control panel is pressed. This display is

normal and, if needed, serves as an indication

to the after-sales service staff. In all cases, the

user of the hob should disregard it.

/ USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Tip

To check the suitability of your cook-

ware:

Place the vessel on a cooking zone at

power level 4.

If the display remains on, your cookware is

compatible.

If the display flashes, your cookware cannot

be used with induction cooking.

You can also use a magnet to test the cook-

ware.

If a magnet "sticks" to the bottom of the

cookware, it is compatible with induction.

••

WHICH COOKING ZONE

SHOULD YOU USE BASED ON

YOUR COOKWARE?

••

COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION

••

The induction principle

The principle of induction is based on a

magnetic phenomenon.

When you place your cookware on a cooking

zone and you turn it on, the electronic boards

in your cooking hob produce "induced" cur-

rents in the bottom of the cookware and ins-

tantly raise its température. This heat is then

transferred to the food, which is simmered or

seared depending on your settings.

••

Cookware

Most cookware is compatible with induction.

Only glass, terra cotta, aluminium without a

special finish on the bottom, copper and

some non-magnetic stainless steels do not

work with induction cooking.

We recommend that you select cookware

with a thick, flat bottom. The heat will be dis-

tributed better and cooking will be more uni-

form.

By choosing cookware that displays this logo

on its bottom or on its packaging, you can be

certain that it is perfectly compatible with

your hob under normal operating conditions.

To help you choose, a list of cookware is pro-

vided with this guide.

/ USING YOUR APPLIANCE

SAFETY OF INDUCTION ZONES

DURING OPERATION

•Temperature limiter

Each cooking zone is equipped with a safety

sensor that constantly monitors the tempera-

ture of the bottom of the cookware. In the

event that an empty vessel is left on a cooking

zone that is on, this sensor automatically

adjusts the power output of the hob, thereby

avoiding any risk of damage to the cookware

or the hob.

•"Small Items" safety

A small object (such as a fork, a spoon, a ring,

etc.) left alone on the hob is not detected as a

piece of cookware.

The display flashes and no heat is produced.

Warning

Several small objects together on a

cooking zone may be detected as cook-

ware.

If the display remains on: power may be

supplied and the objects may be heated.

HOB SAFETY DURING OPERA-

TION

•Residual heat

After intensive use, the cooking zone that you

have just used can remain hot for several min-

utes.

""HH""

is displayed during this period.

Avoid touching the hot areas during this time.

•Protection against overflows

The hob may shut down (with

the adjacent symbol in the

display) automatically in any

of these three situations:

Overflow that spills onto the touch controls.

- Damp towel placed over the touch controls.

- Metallic object placed on the touch con-

trols.

Clean the hob or remove the object, then

begin cooking again.

•Auto-Stop system

If you forget to switch off a cooking zone,

your hob has an "

AAuuttoo--SSttoopp ssyysstteemm

" safety

function which automaticallty cuts off the

power to the cooking zone, after a predefined

period (between 1 and 10 hours depending

on the power used).

If this safety system is used, the cutoff to the

cooking zone is displayed as "

AASS

" or "

" on

the control panel and a "bip" sounds for about

2 minutes. Simply press any of the control

buttons to stop this.

A double beep will confirm your action.

••

/ DAILY CARE OF YOUR APPLIANCE

PROTECTING YOUR APPLIANCE

Avoid hard shocks from cookware:

The vitroceramic glass worktop is very sturdy;

however, it is not unbreakable.

Do not place any hot lids flat on your cooking

hob. A suction effect may damage the vitroce-

ramic surface.

Avoid dragging cookware across the surface,

which may in the long-term result in the

degradation of the decorative finish of the

vitroceramic top.

Avoid placing cookware on the frame or cover

(depending on the model).

Avoid using cookware with rough or bumpy

bottoms: they can capture and transfer parti-

cles that may produce stains or scratches on

your hob.

These defects that do not result in

appliance malfunction or do not make it

unsuitable for use are not covered by the

warranty.

MAINTAINING YOUR APPLIANCE

Do not store cleaning products or flammable

products in the cabinet underneath your coo-

king hob.

Do not heat unopened canned goods; they

may burst.

Of course, this precaution applies to all types

of cooking.

Never use a sheet of aluminium for cooking.

Never place items wrapped in aluminium foil

or packaged in aluminium dishes on your coo-

king hob.

The aluminium will melt and permanently

damage your cooking appliance.

Objects not intended for cooking should

never be placed on the hob (risk of powering

on, scratches, etc.).

Steam cleaning should never be used. The

steam jet could damage your hob.
