GENERAL
Carefully read the contents of this leaflet since it provides
important instructions regarding safety of installation,
use and maintenance. Keep the leaflet for possible future
consultation. All the operations relating to installation
(electrical connections) must be carried out by specialised
personnel in conformity with the regulations in force.

The system of cooking by induction is based on the physical
phenomenon of magnetic induction. The fundamental
feature of this system is direct transfer of heat energy from the
generator to the pan without intermediate means (different
from traditional cooker tops see Fig.1).
"EWBOUBHFT
If you compare your electric cooker tops, with the induction
cooker top, the result will be:
4BGFS
low temperature on the glass surface.
2VJDLFS
brief heating times.
- More precise:
the top reacts immediately to your commands.
- More efficient:
90% of the energy absorbed is tran sfor med
into heat.
Furthermore, once the pan has been removed from the hob,
heat transmission is stopped immediately, thereby preventing
the needless dispersion of heat.
The system also automatically recognises the various
diameters of all pans and uses a suitable power level for
each size.
This means that we are able to use pans of various sizes,
provided that the pan diameter is no more than 10% larger
- or 40% smaller - than the printed detail marked on the hob
(Fig.7B).
Caution:
if you are using a pan with a diameter which is more
than 40% smaller than the printing marked on the glass, the
cooking zone may not be activated.

Cooking by induction uses magnetism to generate heat. The
vessels must therefore contain iron.
Check if the vessel material is magnetic using a magnet.
Important:
To prevent permanent damage to the cooker surface, do
not use:
- Pans with bases that are not perfectly flat.
- Metal pans with enamelled bases.
- Do not use pans with rough bases as they may scratch the
hob’s surface.
SAFETY WARNINGS
This apparatus is not suitable for use by children or persons
who need supervision. Do not allow children to play with
the apparatus. Before using the induction cooker top it is
important to check that the apparatus is compatible with
anyone who has a pacemaker and active surgical implants.

- Check that the voltage and power values listed on the data
plate (positioned on the lower part of the appliance) are com-
patible with the electricity supply and socket. If you have any
doubts, please consult a qualified electrician for assistance.
Important:
- Metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons or lids must not
be placed on the cooker surface as they can get hot.
- After use, switch the cooker off using the control device and
do not rely on the pan detector.
- Avoid liquid spilling, therefore to boil or heat liquids reduce
the heat supply.
- Do not leave the heating elements switched on with empty
vessels or without vessels.
- When you have finished cooking, switch off the relative
resistance using the control indicated below.
- Never use aluminium foil for cooking, or never place products
wrapped in aluminium foil onto the cooking surface. The alu-
minium would melt and damage your apparatus irreversibly.
- Never heat a tin or can of food without opening it – it could
explode! This warning applies to hobs of all types.
- The use of high power like the Booster function is not suitable
for heating some liquids like, for example, frying oil. The exces-
sive heat may be dangerous. In these cases, we recommend
using a lower power.
- The containers must be placed directly on the hob and must
be centred. Do not, in any case, insert objects between the
pan and the hob.
- In a situation of high temperatures, the appliance automati-
cally decreases the power level of the cooking areas.
- Pay attention to easy to reach device parts as they over-heat
during use.
- Avoid spilling liquids like, for example, oil or other types of
grease, as they can cause fires.
- Do not attempt to put fires out using water. Turn off the hob
and cover the flame with a lid or fire-proof blanket.
- Do not leave objects on the cooking surface, it may cause
fires.
- If cable is damaged, have qualified personnel or After-Sales
Service replace it.
Attention:
steam cleaners must not be used.
Attention:
if the surface is cracked, switch the ap paratus off
to prevent electric shocks.
Attention:
the appliance is not intended to be operated by
means of external timer or separated remote-control system.
This appliance conforms to the European Directive EC/2002/96,

user is helping to prevent potential damage to the environ-
ment or to public health.
The symbol on the product or on the accompanying
paperwork indicates that the appliance should not be
