•
Worktop must be placed absolutely horizontal.
•
Suitably protect the edges of the cut aperture.

By means of the supplied screws 4 (or 6 by
some models) fasten the supplied tightening
brackets 4 (or 6 by some models) fasten to the
front and the rear side of the cooking hob and
to the prepared aperture.
•

supply (see instructions for the connection of
the cooking hob to mains power supply).
•

Ceramic-glass cooktop
Ceramic-glass cooktop is equipped with four hotplates
designed as cooking zones. The surface of the hob is
flat, without any edges for eventual gathering of dirt.
Cookware may easily be moved about along the hob
surface.
•
Hotplates quickly reach the selected heating power
while the adjacent area around the hotplates
remains cool.
•
The cooktop is resistant to temperature changes.
•
The cooktop is also impact resistant. Cookware
may be placed upon the surface rather firmly
without any consequences.
•
Avoid using the hob as a working surface. Sharp
objects may produce scratches.
•
Never attempt to prepare food in aluminum or
plastic cookware. Never place any plastic objects or
aluminum foil upon the hot cooking hob.
•
Avoid making coffee in traditional Turkish coffee
kettle since the diameter of the bottom is too small
and the hotplate may be damaged.
CAUTION !
•
Never use cracked or broken ceramic-glass
cooking hob. Sharp edged objects, falling upon the
surface of the hob may cause cracking. The
consequences may be visible immediately or only
after a while. In case any visible cracks are
observed cut the power supply immediately.
•
In case sugar or other heavily sweetened substance
is spilled on the hotplate, wipe it immediately and
remove the sugar residues with a scraper although
the cooking zone is still hot, otherwise the hotplate
may be damaged.
•
Avoid cleaning the cooktop while the cooking zones
are still hot, as you may damage the hob.
