SAFETY WARNING
The use of flat-bottomed pots, with
a diameter equal to or slightly bigger
than the heated area, is recommended.
(Fig.5). Do not use pots that have a
rough base, in order to prevent the hob
thermal surface from being scratched.
This appliance is not intended for use
by children or infirm people without
supervision.
IMPORTANT
- Avoid the overflow of liquids by
reducing the heat supply when
boiling or warming liquids.
- Do not leave any heating element
switched on, if there are no pots, or
if the pots are empty.
- Once cooking is completed, turn the
concerned heating element off, by
using the control shown below.
- This appliance is not intended for use
by people (children included) with
limited physical, sensorial or mental
abilities, or lacking of experience
and knowledge, unless they are
supervised or well instructed about
the use of the appliance, by a person
who is responsible for their safety.
- Children should be supervised to
assure that they do not play with the
appliance.
- If the hob surface is cracked, turn
the appliance off and disconnect
it from the electric network , so as
to avoid the possibility of electric
shock.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These installation instructions are
intended for a specialized installer
and are meant as guidelines for the
hob installation, adjustment and
maintenance, in compliance with any
regulations and standards in force.
If a built-in oven or any other appliance
generating heat is to be mounted
directly under the vitro-ceramic hob,
IT IS NECESSARY THAT SUCH
AN APPLIANCE (the oven) AND
THE VITRO-CERAMIC HOB ARE
PROPERLY INSULATED
.
Failure to comply with this precaution
might result in the incorrect operation of
the TOUCH CONTROL system.
• Positioning:
This household appliance has been
designed for built –in installation onto a
worktop, as shown in the figure (Fig.2).
Use sealing material along the whole
perimeter - Fig.4 (Cut dimensions-
Fig.2). This operation is necessary in
order to prevent any liquid from entering
inside the hob, being that the flatness
of the top, the glass and their coupling
cannot be assured. Fix the appliance
on the worktop by using the 4 supports,
taking the work top thickness into
account (Fig.2). If, after installation, the
lower part of the appliance is accessible
from the lower part of the cabinet, it will
be necessary to mount a spacing panel
at the distances given (Fig.3). If the
appliance is installed under an oven,
this step will not be necessary. The
appliance is not intended to be operated
by an external timer or a separate remote
control system.
