SAFETY
•
Raw pan bottoms or damaged saucepans (not enameled cast iron pots) may damage ceramic glass.
•
Sand or other abrasive materials may damage ceramic glass.
•
Avoid dropping objects, even little ones, on the vitroceramic.
•
Do not hit the edges of the glass with saucepans.
•
Make sure that the ventilation of the appliance is in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
•
Do not put or leave empty saucepans on the vitroceramic cooktops.
•
Sugar, synthetic materials or aluminum sheets must not come into contact with the heating zones. These may break or damage the
vitroceramic glass when cooling: switch on the appliance and take them immediately out of the hot heating zone (be careful not to burn
yourself).
•
WARNING: Danger of fire: do not store items on the cooking surface.
•
Never place any hot container over the control panel.
•
If a drawer is situated under the installed appliance, make sure the space between the contents of the drawer and the base of the
appliance is large: at least (2 cm). This is essential to guarantee correct ventilation.
•
Never put flammable objects (ex. sprays) into the drawer under the vitroceramic cooktop. Cutlery drawers must be resistant to heat.
PRECAUTIONS IN CASE OF APPLIANCE FAILURE
•
If a defect is noticed, switch off the appliance and turn off the electrical supply.
•
If the ceramic glass is cracked or fissured, you must unplug the appliance and contact after sales service.
•
Servicing must be done by specialists. Do not open the appliance by yourself.
•
WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
•
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
OTHER PROTECTIONS
•
Ensure that the pot or pan is always centred on the cooking zone. The bottom of the pan must cover as much of the
•
cooking zone as possible.
•
For the users of pacemaker, the magnetic field could influence its operating. We recommend discussing this with the retailer or a doctor.
•
Do not to use aluminum or synthetic material containers: they could melt on cooking zones that are still hot.
•
NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off the appliance and then cover flame
e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.
PRECAUTIONS NOT TO DAMAGE THE APPLIANCE
DO NOT USE INTERMEDIATE REMOVABLE
ACCESSORIES TO HEAT PANS WHICH ARE NOT
ADAPTED TO INDUCTION.
THIS RISKS BURNS AND DETERIORATION OF THE COOKTOP.
