[. . . ] Or hobs with raised sides: After inserting the hob into its cavity, insert the 4 fixing hooks (each has its own pin) into the lower edges of the hob, using the long pointed screws to fix them in place, until the glass is stuck to the supporting surface. The appliance must be installed on a perfectly level Separate the wires and connect them in accordance with the instructions given in the following table and diagrams: Voltage and mains frequency 400V - 2+N ~ 50 Hz 220-240V 3 ~ 50Hz 400V 3-N~ 50Hz : yellow/green; N1: blue 400V - 2+2N ~ 50 Hz N2: blue L1: black L2: brown Electrical cable Wire connection : yellow/green; N: the two blue wires together L1: black L2: brown Connecting the electricity supply cable to the mains If the appliance is being connected directly to the electricity mains an omnipolar switch must be installed with a minimum opening of 3 mm between contacts. The installer must ensure that the correct electrical Connection has been made and that it is fully compliant with safety regulations. In order to adhere to safety standards, the appliance Must not come into contact with electrical parts once it has been installed. [. . . ] If no operations are carried out for a period of 2 minutes, after the residual heat indicator lights turn off and the fan stops (if present), the appliance automatically switches to the off mode. Before using the appliance, we recommend you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly. A few seconds after the hob is connected to the To begin using a cooking zone, set the desired power level using the Types of noise during normal hob operation: Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that make up the induction element and the pot; it is generated by the electromagnetic field required for heating and increases as the power of the induction element increases. Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the heating zone is empty; the noise disappears once food or water is placed into the pot. Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on the bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be more or less intense depending on the material making up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot dimensions increase. Loud whistle: heard when two induction elements of the same group function simultaneously at maximum power and/or when the booster function is set on the larger element while the other is auto-adjusted. Noise is reduced by decreasing the power level of the autoadjusted induction element; pot bottom layers made of different kinds of materials are among the main causes of this noise. An noise: a fan is necessary to ensure the hob functions correctly and to safeguard the electronic unit from possible overheating. The fan functions at maximum power when the large induction element is at maximum power or when the booster function is on; in all other cases, it works at average power depending on the temperature detected. Urthermore, the fan may continue to work even after switching the hob off, if the temperature detected is high. At step 2, press the button: the duration decreases progressively until it reaches 0 and switches off. Practical advice on using the appliance Use cookware made from materials which are compatible with the induction principle (ferromagnetic material). We especially recommend pans made from: cast iron, coated When the temperature has reached a suitable level, this message disappears and the hob may be used again. Safety switch The appliance has a safety switch which automatically switches the cooking zones off after they have been in operation for a certain amount of time at a particular power level. Or example: the rear right-hand hotplate is set to 5 and will switch off after 7 and a half hours of continuous operation, while the front left-hand hotplate is set to 2 and will switch off after 9 and a half hours. Power level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Maximum operating time in hours 10 9, 5 9 8, 5 7, 5 7 6, 5 6 5, 5 5 4 3, 5 3 2, 5 2 1 In addition, to obtain the best results from your hob: Use pans with a thick, flat base in order to fully utilise the cooking zone. Always use pans with a diameter which is large enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all the available heat. Make sure that the base of the cookware is always clean and dry, in order to fully utilise and extend the life of both the cooking zones and the cookware. Avoid using the same cookware which has been used on gas burners: the heat concentration on gas burners may distort the base of the pan, causing it not to adhere correctly. The hotplate only emits heat when a pan with suitable measurements for the cooking zone is placed on it. If the power level indicator display flashes, this may be because: An incompatible pan A pan whose diameter is too small The pan has been removed from the hotplate. [. . . ] Some hobs have an aluminium frame which is Example, products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues and ovens), stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the surface beyond repair. Do not use any cleaning or degreasing products which are not suitable for use with aluminium. Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on Loosen the screws holding the fixing hooks in each corner. It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen towel. [. . . ]
