Advice on energy-saving

The diameter of the base of the pan must correspond to the diameter of the cooking zone.

• When buying a pot, check whether the diameter indicated is that of the base or the top, as the top is almost always larger than the base.
• The base of the cookware must be thick and completely flat. In addition, the hob should be clean and dry as well.
• When preparing dishes with long cooking times, you can save time and energy by using a pressure cooker, which also makes it possible to preserve the vitamins in the food.
• Make sure that the pressure cooker contains enough liquid as, if there is not enough and it overheats, this may cause damage to both the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
• If possible, always cover the pans with a suitable lid.
• Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of food to be cooked. A large, half-empty saucepan leads to a waste of energy.
• Do not use cast-iron cookware or cookware with a rough base.

If hob and oven are being used at the same time, under certain conditions the maximum power limit that can be used by your electrical system might be exceeded.

Error warnings

In the event of a malfunction or abnormal operation, the display shows a message containing the code associated with the error. Error codes always begin with the letter “F” followed by a digit or letter (e.g. “Ft or F4”). Errors coded as:

• “Fc”
• “Ft”
• “FE”

Indicate an overheating of the appliance or part of it, so the appliance must be switched off immediately, all pans removed and allowed to cool down. If these errors persist or different ones are displayed, the code should be noted and the Technical Support should be contacted.

Residual heat indicators are not to be considered as error codes.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the glass ceramic hob

See General safety instructions.

Cleaning the surfaces

• To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.

Ordinary daily cleaning

Always and only use specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.

Weekly cleaning

Clean and maintain the hob once a week using an ordinary glass ceramic cleaning product. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The silicon in these products creates a protective, water-repellent membrane which also resists dirt. All marks stay on the membrane and can therefore be removed easily. After cleaning, dry the surface with a clean cloth. Make sure that there is no detergent left on the cooking surface as it might undergo an aggressive reaction when heated up and could modify the structure of the cooking surface.

Food stains or residues

Light coloured marks from pans with aluminium bases can be easily cleaned off with a cloth moistened in vinegar. Remove any burnt-on residues after cooking; then rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Dirt, which may have fallen on the hob while cleaning lettuce or potatoes, can scratch the hob when moving pans. Consequently, remove any dirt from the cooking surface immediately. Changes in colour do not affect the operation and stability of the glass. These are not alterations to the material of the hob but just residues which have not been removed and have then carbonised.

Shiny surfaces can form due to the bases of pans, especially aluminium ones, rubbing on the surface, and due to the use of unsuitable detergents. They are difficult to remove using conventional cleaning products. It may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process several times. Use of corrosive detergents or rubbing of pan bases can wear away the decoration on the hob over time and contribute to the formation of stains.

We recommend the use of cleaning products distributed by the manufacturer.
After cleaning, dry the appliance thoroughly to prevent any water or detergent from interfering with its operation or creating unsightly marks.

What to do if…

• The hob does not work:
  • Make sure that the hob is connected and that the main switch is turned on.
  • Make sure that there is no power failure.
  • Make sure that the fuse has not blown. In this case replace the fuse.
  • Make sure that the circuit breaker of the residential electrical system has not tripped. In this case, reset the circuit breaker.
• The cooking results are unsatisfactory:
  • Make sure that the cooking temperature is not too high or too low.
  • Make sure that the hob has proper  ventilation and that the air intakes are completely free.
• The hob smokes:
  • Let the hob cool down and clean it once cooking is complete.
  • Make sure that the food has not spilled out of the pan and use a larger cooking vessel, if needed.
  • The fuses blow or the circuit breaker of the residential electrical system trips repeatedly.
  • Call Technical Support or an electrician. There are cracks or fissures in the hob:
  • Turn off the appliance immediately, disconnect the power supply and contact Technical Support.
