[. . . ] â· Avoid installing the hob above a dishwasher: if this cannot be avoided, place a waterproof separation device between the two appliances. â· Depending on the hob you want to install, the cabinet must have the following dimensions (see figure): To allow adequate ventilation and to avoid overheating of the surrounding surfaces the hob should be positioned as follows: At a minimum distance of 40 mm from the back panel or any other vertical surfaces. â· So that a minimum distance of 20 mm is maintained between the installation cavity and the cabinet underneath. â· Kitchen cabinets adjacent to the appliance and taller than the top of the hob must be at least 600 mm from the edge of the hob. [. . . ] Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that make up the induction element and the pot; it is generated by the electromagnetic field required for heating and increases as the power of the induction element increases. â· Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the heating zone is empty; the noise disappears once food or water is placed into the pot. â· Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on the bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be more or less intense depending on the material making up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot dimensions increase. â· Loud whistle: heard when two induction elements of the same group function simultaneously at maximum power and/or when the booster function is set on the larger element while the other is auto-adjusted. Noise is reduced by decreasing the power level of the autoadjusted induction element; pot bottom layers made of different kinds of materials are among the main causes of this noise. â· Fan noise: a fan is necessary to ensure the hob functions correctly and to safeguard the electronic unit from possible overheating. The fan functions at maximum power when the large induction element is at maximum power or when the booster function is on; in all other cases, it works at average power depending on the temperature detected. Furthermore, the fan may continue to work even after switching the hob off, if the temperature detected is high. The types of noise listed above are due to induction technology and are not necessarily operational faults. To operate a cooking zone, select the button corresponding to the desired zone and set the required power level by pressing down on the slider and moving it towards the right to increase the power level, or towards the left to decrease the power level. The min/med/max buttons can also be pressed directly to select the pre-set power levels: min (1) / med (8) / max (16), and to switch off the plate (see below). When the 6 seconds have elapsed, the ON/OFF and CONTROLS LOCKED indicator lights will flash for one second. At step 2, press the button: the duration decreases progressively until it reaches 0 and switches off. When the hob is switched on again it will be set to the "demo" mode. the display will show the text DE and OF and the hob will be switched off. Use cookware made from materials which are compatible with the induction principle (ferromagnetic material). We especially recommend pans made from: cast iron, coated steel or special stainless steel adapted for induction. When the temperature has reached a suitable level, this message disappears and the hob may be used again. Safety switch The appliance has a safety switch which automatically switches the cooking zones off after they have been in operation for a certain amount of time at a particular power level. When the safety switch has been triggered, the 0 display shows "0". For example: the rear right-hand hotplate is set to 5 and will switch off after 7 and a half hours of continuous operation, while the front left-hand hotplate is set to 2 and will switch off after 9 and a half hours.

[. . . ] 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. â· For the attention of wearers of pacemakers or other active implants: The hob complies with all current standards on electromagnetic interference. Your induction hob is therefore perfectly in keeping with legal requirements (89/336/CEE directives). It is designed not to create interference on any other electrical apparatus being used on condition that the apparatus in question also complies with this legislation. [. . . ]
