Precautions and tips
!
This appliance has been designed and manufactured in
compliance with international safety standards. The following
warnings are provided for safety reasons and must be read
carefully.
Practical advice on using the appliance
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.
This appliance conforms to the following European
Economic Community directives:
- 2006/95/EEC dated 12/12/06 (Low Voltage) and subsequent
amendments;
-89/336/EEC dated 03/05/89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and
subsequent amendments;
- 93/68/EEC dated 22/07/93 and subsequent amendments.
General safety
!
Make sure that the air inlet behind the fan grille is never
obstructed. The built-in hob should, in fact, be provided with
suitable ventilation for the cooling of the electronic components
used in the appliance.
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home
and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered
areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance
exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot or with wet or damp
hands and feet.
• The appliance must be used by adults only for the preparation
of food, in accordance with the instructions provided in this
booklet. Do not use the hob as a worktop or chopping board.
• The glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical shocks, but it
may crack (or even break) if hit with a sharp object such as a
tool. If this happens, disconnect the appliance from the
electricity mains immediately and contact a Service Centre.
• Ensure that power supply cables of other electrical appliances
do not come into contact with the hot parts of the hob.
• Remember that the cooking zones remain relatively hot for at
least thirty minutes after they have been switched off. An
indicator light provides a warning when residual heat is present
(
see Start-up and use).
• Keep any object which could melt away from the hob, for
example plastic and aluminium objects, or products with a high
sugar content. Be especially careful when using plastic film
and aluminium foil or packaging: if placed on surfaces which
are still hot, they may cause serious damage to the hob.
• Always make sure that pan handles are turned towards the
centre of the hob in order to avoid accidental burns.
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug from the
mains socket; do not pull on the cable.
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work without
having disconnected the appliance from the electricity mains.
• The appliance should not be operated by people (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities,
by inexperienced individuals or by anyone who is not familiar
with the product. These individuals should, at the very least,
be supervised by someone who assumes responsibility for their
safety or receive preliminary instructions relating to the
operation of the appliance.
• Do not let children play with the appliance.
• Do not look at the halogen lamps in the cooking zones for long
if they are present.
Disposal
• When disposing of packaging material: observe local
legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that
household appliances should not be disposed of using the
normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should
be collected separately in order to optimise the cost of re-
using and recycling the materials inside the machine, while
preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and to public
health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to
remind the owner of their obligations regarding separated
waste collection.
For further information relating to the correct disposal of
exhausted household appliances, owners may contact the
public service provided or their local dealer.
