It is for this reason that the task should be undertaken by a professionally qualified person who will carry it out in accordance with the technical regulations in force. In the event that this advice is ignored and the installation is carried out by an unqualified person, the manufacturer declines all responsibility for any technical failure of the product whether or not it results in damage to goods or injury to individuals. BUILT-IN The furniture in which your hob will be installed and all adjacent furniture, should be made from materials that can withstand high temperatures. In addition, all decorative laminates should be fixed with heat-resistant glue. Installation: · A watertight seal is supplied with the hob. Before fitting: - turn the hob upside down, with the glass surface facing downwards. Make sure the glass is protected. - fit the seal round the hob. - make sure that it is correctly fitted to avoid any leakage into the supporting cabinet. - It is important to fit the hob on a level supporting surface. - Deformations caused by incorrect fitting can alter the specifications of the worktop and the performance of the hob. - Leave a gap of at least 5 cm between the appliance and any neighbouring vertical surfaces. - It is absolutely essential that the recess conforms with the dimensions indicated. - Cut a hole in the worktop of the dimension shown in the diagram below. A minimum of 50 mm space should be left around the hole. - The worktop should be at least 30 mm thick and made of heatresistant material. As shown in the Figure (1) ELECTRICAL CONNECTION "The installation must conform to the standard directives." The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage that may be caused by unsuitable or unreasonable use. Warning : - Always check before any electrical operation, the supply tension shown on the electricity meter, the adjustment of the circuit-breaker, the continuity of the connection to earth to the installation and that the fuse is suitable. - The electrical connection to the installation should be made via a socket with a plug with earth, or via an omnipole cut-out switch with an opening gap of at least 3 mm. If the appliance has a socket outlet, it must be installed so that the socket outlet is accessible. - The yellow/green wire of the power supply cable must be connected to the earth of both power supply and appliance terminals. - The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any accidents resulting from the use of an appliance which is not connected to earth, or with a faulty earth connection continuity. - Any queries regarding the power supply cord should be referred to After Sales Service or a qualified technician. - If the cable is damaged or to be replaced, the operation must be carried out the by sale agent with dedicated tools to avoid any accident. Connection to power supply The socket shall be connected in compliance with the relevant standard, to a single-pole circuit breaker. The method of connection is shown in Figure (3) Voltage & Frequency 400 V 2-N 50/60 HZ Brown Black Grey & Blue Yellow/Green Wire connection - You can not build the hob in above an oven with no fan, a dishwasher, fridge, freezer or washing machine. - It is essential that the induction hob is well ventilated and that the air intake and exit are not blocked.

This will help to avoid staining the hob. · Use pans whose diameter is wide enough to completely cover the surface unit : the size of the pan should be no smaller than the heating area. If it is slightly wider the energy will be used at its maximum efficiency. The following information will help you select the pans best adapted to obtain good results. Induction currents Vitrocéramic top COIL CONTROL UNIT Pan which changes the inductions currents into HEAT USE PROCEDURE An electronic generator powers a coil located inside the appliance. This coil creates a magnetic field, so that when the pan is placed on the hob, it is permeated by the induction currents. These currents make the pan into a real heat transmitter, while the glass ceramic hob remains cold. This system is designed for use with magnetic-bottomed pans. Put simply, induction technology has two main advantages: - as heat is emitted only by the pan, heat is maintained at its maximum level and cooking takes place without any heat loss. - There is no thermal inertia, as cooking automatically starts when the pan is placed on the hob and stops when it is removed. HIGH SAFETY APPLIANCE - Protection from over-Temperature A sensor monitors the temperature in the cooking zones. When the temperature exceeds a safe level, the cooking zone is automatically switched off. - Detection of Small non-magnetic items When the pan with a diameter of less than 80 mm, or some other small item (e.g. aluminium) has been left on the hob, a buzzer sounds for approximately one minute, after which the hob goes automatically on to standby. - Residual heat warning When the hob has been operating for some time, there will be some residual heat. The letter "H" appears to warn you to keep away from it. - Auto shutdown Another safety feature of the induction hob is auto shutdown. This occurs whenever you forget to switch off a cooking zone. The default shutdown times are shown in the table below. Power level The heating zone shut down automatically after ---------------------------------------------------------------------1-3 8 hours 4-6 4 hours 7-9 2 hours When the pan is removed from the cooking zone, it stops heating immediately and switches itself off after the buzzer sounded for one minute. REMIND: The patient with a heart pacemaker shall use this product under the guidance of the doctor. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------INDUCTION ZONE -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------MARK ON KITCHEN On the label, check the mark which UTENSILS shows if the pan is compatible with induction.
