User instructions
Installation
All the operations concerned with the installation (electrical and gas
connections, adaptation to type of gas, necessary adjustments, etc.) must be
carried out by qualified technicians, in terms with the standards in force.
For specific instructions, kindly read the part reserved for the installation
technician.
DO NOT FOCUS INENSEL ON THE LEDS AND DISPLAYS.
Use
Use Gas burners
The ignition of the gas burner is carried out by putting a small flame to the
upper part holes of the burner, pressing and rotating the corresponding knob
in an anti-clockwise manner, until the maximum position has coincided with the
marker. When the gas
burner has been turned on, adjust the flame according to need. The minimum
position is found at the end of the anti-clockwise rotation direction.
For models with automatic/ simultaneous (with one hand) ignition, it is
sufficient to proceed as described above using the corresponding knob. The
electric spark between the ignition plug and the burner provides the ignition
of the burner itself. After ignition, immediately release the push-button and
adjust the flame according to need. For models with a thermoelectric safety
system, the burner is ignited as in the various cases described above, keeping
the knob fully pressed on the maximum position for approximately 3/5 seconds.
After releasing the knob, make sure the burner is actually lit.
N.B.
- We recommend the use of pots and pans with a diameter matching that of the burner, thus preventing the flame from escaping from the bottom part and surrounding the pot;
- do not leave any empty pots or pans on the fire;
- do not use any tools for grill-cooking on Crystal hobs.
When cooking is finished, it is also a good norm to close the main gas pipe tap and/or cylinder.
Models with Dual Wok burner (DWK)
Some models are equipped with a Dual Wok burner. It is possible to light the
central and external flame (F1+F2) by turning and pressing the knob anti-
clockwise or to light the central burner (F1) only, as shown in the figure
below.
Important
On floors with thermoelectric protection do not keep the ignite button pushed
for more than 15 seconds. If the burner has not ignited after 15 seconds, open
the door of the room and wait at least one minute before making a further
attempt.
Maintenance Gas/Electrical
Prior to any operation, disconnect the appliance from the electrical system.
For long-life to the equipment, a general cleaning operation must take place
periodically, bearing in mind the following:
- the glass, steel and/or enamelled parts must be cleaned with suitable non-abrasive or corrosive products (found on the market). Avoid chlorine-base products (bleach, etc.);
- avoid leaving acid or alkaline substances on the working area (vinegar, salt, lemonjuice, etc.);
- the wall baffle and the small covers (mobile parts of the burner) must be washed frequently with boiling water and detergent, taking care to remove every possible encrustation. Dry carefully and check that none of the burner holes is fully or partially clogged;
- the electrical parts are cleaned with a damp cloth and are lightly greased with lubricating oil when still warm;
- the stainless steel grids of the working area, after having been heated, take on a bluish tint which does not deteriorate the quality. To bring colour back to its original state, use as lightly abrasive product.
N.B.- Cleaning of the taps must be carried out by qualified personnel, who must be consulted in case of any functioning anomaly. Check periodically the state of conservation of the flexible gas feed pipe. In case of leakage, call immediately the qualified technicians for its replacement.
DO NOT USE STEAM CLEANERS
Operating principle
Induction
Heating by induction is the most efficient form of cooking available.
The heat is generated by an electromagnetic field, directly on the bottom of
the pan or pot used.
The surface which is free from contact remains virtually cold. When the
cooking time is up and the container is removed, there is no residual heat. It
is efficient become there is no waste of energy due to dispersion, as happens
with gas burners, it is 30 to 50% faster than normal hobs using HGL technology
and allows energy savings of up to 25%.
If liquid overflow from the container, it does not stick to the surface of the
hob, because this is just slightly warm.
Operating principle
This is based on the electromagnetic properties of most cooking containers.
The electronic circuit governs the operation of the coil (inductor), creating
a magnetic field.
The heat is transmitted by the container to the food.
- Te cooking process takes place as follows:
- minimum dispersion (high performance);
- the removal of the pan (simply lifting it) automatically stops the system;
- the electronic system allows maximum flexibility and precision of regulation.
User instructions
Installation
All installation operations (electrical connection) must be carried out by
people qualified in compliance with the laws in force.
For specific instructions, see the installation section.
DO NOT FOCUS INENSEL ON THE LEDS AND DISPLAYS.
Use
First of all, position the pan in the chosen cooking area.
The absence of the pan display means the system cannot start.
Pan detection
A certainty which distinguishes the knowledgeable use of technology in favour
of the consumer.

Residual heat indicator
this tells the user that the glass is at a dangerously high heat in case of
contract with the whole area over the cooking zone. The temperature is
determined using a mathematical model and any residual heat is indicated with
an “H” by the corresponding sevensegment display.
Heating and cooling are calculated in relation to:
- the power level selected (from “0“ to “9“);
- the relay activation period.
After switching off the cooking zone, the corresponding display shows an “H”
until the temperature in the zone falls below the critical level (≤ 60°C) in
compliance with the mathematical model.
Protection in the event of accidental switching on
-
If the electronic control sense continuous activation of a key for about 10 sec. it switches off automatically. The control gives off an acoustic error signal for 10 seconds, warning the user of the presence of an object on the sensors. The displays show the
permanent error code, which will be displayed as long as the electronic control senses the error. If the cooking zone “burns”, an “H” will appear on the display, alternating with the error signal. -
If no cooking zone is activated within 20 seconds of switching on the touch control, the control returns to stand-by mode. (See also paragraph 1.2.
-
When the touch control is on, the ON/OFF key takes priority over all the other key, so the touch control can be switched off at any time, even in the case of multiple or continuous activation of the keys.
-
In stand-by mode, continuous activation of the keys will have no effect. However, before the electronic control can be switched on again, it must acknowledge that no key is active.
Key LoPrecautions
- If there is even the tiniest crack in the ceramic glass surface, immediately disconnect the hob from the electricity supply;
- during operation, move any magnetic materials such as credit cards, computer disks, calculators, etc., away from the area;
- never use cooking foil or rest products wrapped in foil directly on the hob;
- metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids must not be rested on the surface of the hob to prevent them from heating up;
- with cooking with non-stick containers, without using water or oil, limit any preheating time to one or two minutes;
- when cooking foods which tend to stick to the bottom of the pan, start at minimum power and gradually increase the heat, stirring frequently;
- after use, switching off correctly (decreasing to “0”) and avoid relying on the pan sensor.
Pans (Fig. 4)
- If a magnet is attracted by the bottom of a container, the container is suitable for induction cooking;
- prefer pans declared as suitable for induction cooking;
- flat, thick-bottomed pans;
- a 20 cm diameter saucepan can benefit from maximum power;
- a small saucepan reduces the power but will not cause energy dispersion. The use of containers with a diameter of less than 12 cm is not recommended;
- stainless steel containers with multilayer bottom or ferrite stainless steel if the bottom indicates: for induction;
- cast iron containers, better with an enamelled bottom to avoid scratching the ceramic glass hob;
- containers made of glass, ceramic, terracotta, aluminium, copper or non-magnetic stainless steel (austenitic) are not recommended and are unsuitable.
Maintenance (Fig. 5)
Traces of foil, food residues, splashes of fat, sugar or very sugary foods
must be removed immediately from the hob using a scraper to avoid damaging the
hob surface.
Then clean with SIDOL or STANFIX and kitchen paper, rinse with water and dry
with a clean cloth.
Never use abrasive sponges or clothes and avoid using aggressive chemical
cleansers such as OVEN SPRAYS or STAIN REMOVERS.
DO NOT USE STEAM CLEANERS
Turning the cooking surface on and off
The cooking surface is turned on by pressing the “centre” On/Off button (1),
you will hear a short beep and the 5 seven-segment displays light up showing
“0”.
If a cooking zone is “hot”, the display will alternate between “H” and “0”.
After switching on, the touch control remains active for 10 seconds.
If you do not select either a cooking zone or the times, the touch control
automatically returns to stand-by mode.
Acoustic signal (buzzer)
During use, the following activities are signalled by a buzzer:
- Normal pressing of the buttons with a short beep.
- Holding down buttons for more than 10 seconds with a long intermittent sound (an error symbol is displayed and, if you continue, the touch control is turned off)
Turning on a cooking area
Position a pot and touch an area of the cursor for the cooking area where the
pot is (9-10-11), slide your finger to the right to increase the cooking level
(10), or slide your finger to the left to decrease it (9).
Turning off a cooking area
A single cooking area can be turned off directly by selecting the “0” position
by sliding your finger to the left in the cursor area for the cooking area
that is working.
Hot cooking areas will be displayed with a letter “H”.
You can turn off all cooking areas immediately at any time using the power
On/Off button (1).
If, during cooking, you inadvertently turn off the surface while using the
controls, you can turn it on again with the On/Off button and you will have 6
seconds to press the pause button (4) that will be indicated by the (3)
flashing of an indicator light above the button; doing so will turn the
surface on again with the same settings it had before it was accidentally
turned off.
Power level
The power level of the cooking area can be set from level 1 to level 9. A
further level P (Power Booster) is available that allows a very rapid heating
of food and, therefore, saves you time.
The power level represented by an intermittent letter “A” is the activation of
the automatic heating function.
Booster and power management
The generator, with Booster enabled, provides the cooking area power that is
significantly higher than the rated power; the display of the selected cooking
area shows a “P”. The Booster function can be activated by pressing at the end
of the cursor of the cooking area (11).
The power increase is different depending on the size of the cooking area:
For a rectangular cooking area (220×190), the power goes from a level 9 of
2100 W to the Booster level of 3000 W for 5 minutes.
For safety reasons, the Booster function has a limited duration.
If during pot is removed from the cooking area during the Booster time, the
Booster remains active and the Booster time is not deactivated.
With the Booster activated, changing the value set with your finger in the
cursor area deactivates the Booster.
The Booster function “P” can be activated in all cooking areas, but priority
is given to the last Booster activated, reducing any other cooking levels.
Automatic preheating (or “heat-up” function)
This feature makes cooking easier. You do not need to be permanently present
during cooking: the surface automatically heats up at Full Power and then
returns to the selected power level after a certain time (see Table 1).
Activating automatic heating (or “heat-up” function)
Press and hold an area of the cursor for the cooking area that is working for
about 3 seconds until you hear a beep (such as 1/3 of the length of the cursor
area).
For example: Select level 3 and activate the automatic heating function by
pressing your finger for 3 seconds. The corresponding display shows the letter
“A” alternating with “3”. With these settings, the cooking surface heats the
cooking area at the maximum level “9” for 2 minutes and then continues cooking
level at level “3”.

Extension function (For large pans)
This function facilitates cooking with large rectangular pans, is only
available for the rectangular cooking areas and is activated by simultaneously
pressing the 2 cursors of the 2 cooking areas involved. At this point, a “U”
icon will light up next to the display of the levels (1-9) and the cooking
area can now be controlled from only once cursor since the other will work
simultaneously at the same level.
Special functions
By turning on the touch display, you can program a special function by
pressing the button indicating the position of the cooking area (button 8).
This function is present for each cooking zone and is able to maintain the
temperature of the pan (about 40°), previously heated. It is displayed by the
dedicated icon (16) together with the symbol together with the symbol that
will appear on the display (14), flashing alternately with the no pot symbol
.
These temperatures are approximate and are greatly dependent on the pot and
the quantity of food.
Control lock (child safety)
It is only activated when the cooking surface is on but no cooking area is on.
Simultaneously press the key button (5) and the pause button (6) and then
press the key button (5).
The letter “L” will appear on both displays for 10 seconds and then they will
turn off.
When you try to turn on the cooking surface with the On/Off button (1), the
letters “L” will be displayed and it will not be possible to cook.
Unlocking/deactivation child safety
There are two types of unlocking:
- Unlocking for one time only: To disable the function, turn on the cooking surface and simultaneously press the pause (6) and key (5) buttons. The letters L disappear and are replaced by a “0” for each cooking area. If you turn off the cooking surface after use, when it is turned on again, the letters L will be displayed to indicate that the surface is locked.
- Permanent unlocking: To disable the function permanently, turn on the cooking surface and simultaneously press the pause (6) and key (5) buttons. Then release these 2 buttons and press the Pause button (6) again.
Key
This cooking surface allows setting a keypad lock using the lock button (5).
It may be useful to lock the keypad during operation, for example for cleaning
the control area or, in any case, if you do not want to change any settings.
The On/Off button (1) still has priority.
Pause
This cooking surface allows setting a pause (6) during cooking (which is
useful, for example, when answering a phone call). When this function is
pressed, an LED lights above the button and the symbol “II” is displayed in
all the cooking areas and the cooking settings and timers are frozen for a
maximum of 10 minutes, after which the cooking surface turns off.
Deactivating Pause
Once activated, the function can be deactivated by pressing the pause button
(6) again. The LED for the pause setting turns off and, within 10 seconds, you
must slide your finger along the cursor below the illuminated area (from left
to right). This allows the
surface to resume cooking and the timer starts from the same point at which it
was stopped.
Timer function
There are two versions of the timer function:
- An independent timer from 1 to 59 minutes: it beeps when the time has run out. This function is always available and is indicated by the clock symbol (24) which is located between the – and + buttons (the symbol may be less bright if another cooking area timer has a remaining time that is less than that set on the independent timer).
- A timer from 1 to 59 minutes for each cooking area: it beeps when the time has run out and turns off the cooking area where it was set. The 4 cooking areas can be programmed independently (the symbol may be less bright if another cooking area timer has a remaining time that is less than that set on the independent timer).
The type of timer activated is shown in the dedicated displays (19-20-21-22). The timer with the least time is highlighted and the related clock icon is brighter (13-24). The other timer settings are still active and running, but the clock icon (13-24) will be less
bright.
Another icon with the word “min” (23) appears when you set times longer than 10 minutes. For example 0.11 indicates 0 hours and 11 minutes.
The separator dot (21) flashes when the timer is running, while the dot is static while the timer is selected and thus modifiable.
Independent timer
-
If the touch display is on, the independent timer can be used by simultaneously pressing the + and – buttons. If all the cooking areas are in position “0”, this is the only timer available. The clock icon (24) will turn on and the display will show “0.00”.
If you do not select any button, the timer deactivates within 5 seconds. -
The time setting (0-1hour.59min) can be changed in increments of one minute with the + button from 0 to 99.
-
Holding down the + or – button dynamically increases the rate of change up to a maximum value, without beeps.
-
If the + (or -) button is released, the rate of increase (decrease) starts again from the initial value.
-
The timer can be set by either continuously pressing the + or – buttons or by pressing successively (with beeps).
After the timer is set, it begins to count down. The expiry of the time is signalled by a beep or by the flashing of the timer display, which will show “00”.
The beep will not stop until the + or – button is pressed. The display stops flashing and turns off.
Turning off/changing the timer
The timer can be changed or turned off at any time by turning on the touch
display again, if no cooking area is on, and pressing the + and – buttons
simultaneously to select the timer. At this point, set it to “0” by pressing
the – button, to turn it off, or by pressing the + button to increase the time
setting.
The independent timer remains active even when the On/Off button is pressed
Programming the timer for the cooking areas
By turning on the touch display, you can program an independent timer for each
cooking area.
- At least one cooking area must be on and set to a certain level.
- By pressing the + and – buttons simultaneously, you can set a countdown for turning off the cooking area. There are illuminated clock icons (13) next to the display of the cooking area. To set the timer on a cooking area when there are more than one cooking area on, you must press the + and – buttons simultaneously. You will note that the clock icon will light and move to the various cooking areas each time you simultaneously press the + and – buttons.
- When the timer of the cooking area is selected, the related clock icon near the display becomes brighter (13). The timers programmed for each cooking zone remain active.
- Other functions of the timer are the same as the independent timer. To increase the time, use the plus button.
- The expiry of the time is signalled by a beep and “00” on the display and the LED of the cooking area assigned to the timer flashes. The cooking area is turned off and an “H” is shown if the area is “hot”, otherwise the display shows a hyphen. The beeping and flashing of the display stop.
- Automatically after 2 minutes.
- When you press the + or – buttons, the timer display turns off.
Error codes are displayed by the 7-segment display with “E” or “ER” plus the error number.
