 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.

1.1  The principle of induction:

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).

1.2  Advantages:

If you compare your electric cooker tops, with the induction 

cooker top, the result will be:

- Safer:

 low temperature on the glass surface.

- Quicker:

 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.

1.3  Cooking vessels (Fig.7A):

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.

Before connecting the appliance to the electricity supply:

- 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, 

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). By making 

sure that this appliance is disposed of in a suitable manner, the 

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 

treated as domestic waste, but should be delivered to a 

suitable electric and electronic appliance recycling collection 

point. Follow local guidelines when disposing of waste. For 

more information on the treatment, re-use and recycling of 

this product, please contact your local authority, domestic 

waste collection service or the shop where the appliance was 

purchased.
