• Electrical cables are not to be in contact with the cooker.
• It is recommended to protect hands from heat using pot holders. Only use dry gloves or pot holders.
• Only use cookware with smooth and magnetic bottom suitable for induction hobs.
• Avoid that sugar, synthetic materials of aluminium, films are in contact with the hot areas. During cooling, those substances can cause cracks or other alterations on the pyroceram surface: switch off the device and immediately remove from the cooking area that is still hot
• When moving saucepans, make sure to lift them rather than slide them over the surface.
• Saucepans and cooker are to be perfectly cleaned before being in contact.
• Do not drop objects on the hob!

Only use saucepans with magnetic bottom. Other materials are not admitted.

Saucepan selection

Saucepans suitable for induction hobs
Only saucepans with a fully magnetic, sufficiently wide and perfectly flat bottom are suitable for use on induction hobs.

The bottom is magnetic if a magnet sticks to every point on the bottom of the saucepan.

Using saucepans with uneven bottoms can make it difficult to detect the saucepan and heat it up.

Suitable saucepans (examples):

• Thick-bottomed enamelled steel saucepans
• Cast iron saucepans with enamelled bottom
• Multi-ply stainless steel saucepans
• Ferritic stainless steel saucepans

Saucepan bottom size:

Saucepans not suitable for induction hobs:
Saucepans with non-magnetic or partially magnetic bottoms, with a size smaller than the indicated minimum and not perfectly flat are not suitable for use on induction hobs.
Unsuitable saucepans (examples):

• Copper saucepans
• Aluminium saucepans
• Ceramic saucepans
• Terracotta saucepans
• Stainless steel saucepans

Noise during cooking
Saucepans may generate noise during cooking: this is not a malfunction anddoes not affect the operation of the product. The noise depends on the type of saucepan and the type of bottom; If it is particularly unpleasant, it is recommended to replace the saucepan.

Humming, hissing, crackling sounds and vibrations are due to the transfer of energy to the bottom of the saucepan, and are generated by the various materials it is composed of. This noise is produced when cooking on a high power level and decreases as the set power level decreases.

Internal ventilation noise: the appliance is equipped with a ventilation module to adjust the internaltemperature of the induction hob. Ventilation can remain on even after switching off the appliance

• Use saucepans of appropriate size to the desired cooking area.
• Always use a saucepan or frying pan on each cooking area, even with the BRIDGE function.
• Do not place hot saucepans on the sensor keys or the LEDs, as this could cause damage to the electronic components underneath.
• Keep controls and lamps always clean.
• Do no keep metal objects directly below the cooker.
• Possibly use always covers to avoid heat dispersion.
• Cook with little water.
• After starting grilling or cooking dishes bring the power level to a lower one.

Safety and warning indications
Warning for people wearing pacemakers:

Keep in mind that when the appliance is being used an electromagnetic field forms in the immediate proximity. There is therefore a remote possibility that the operation of the pacemaker might be affected. If in doubt, contact the pacemaker manufacturer or your GP.

The electromagnetic field of the hob during operation can affect the operation of magnetisable objects. Credit cards, life-saving devices, pocket calculators etc. should not be in the proximity of a hob when in operation.

Metal objects stored in the drawer underneath the appliance may become hot in case of prolonged use. Do not store metal objects in a drawer immediately underneath the hob.

The appliance is equipped with cooling fans. If there is a drawer under a built-in appliance, a separation must be ensured between the drawer and the bottom of the appliance, for appropriate hob ventilation and to make sure the fans are not be obstructed.

Never use two saucepans or pans on the same cooking zone, or a rectangular cooking zone, or a PowerFlex cooking area.

COOKER HOOD

FUMES DISCHARGE

EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD (SUCTION)

In this version the fumes and vapours are discharged outside  through the exhaust pipe.To this end, the hood outlet fitting must be connected via a pipe, to an external output

The outlet pipe must have:

• a diameter not less than that of the hood fitting.
• a slight slope downwards (drop) in the horizontal sections to prevent condensation from flowing ack into the motor.
• the minimum required number of bends.
• the minimum required length to avoid vibrations and reduce the suction performance of the hood.
• You are required to insulate the pipes if it passes through cold environments.
• In the presence of motors with 800m3 /hor higher, a check valve is present to prevent external air flowing back

Deviation for Germany:
when the kitchen hood is used at the same time as appliances that are powered by energy other than electricity, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bar).

HOOD WITH INTERNAL RECIRCULATION (FILTERING)

In this model, the air passes through the Carbon-Zeo (optional) filters to be purified and recycled in the environment. Ensure that the Carbon-Zeo filters are assembled into the hood, if not, install them as indicated in the assembly instructions

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
only intended for qualified personnel

  The hood can be installed in various configurations. The generic assembly steps apply to all installations; for each case, follow the specific steps provided for the required installation.

OPERATION

WHEN TO TURN ON THE HOOD?

Switch on the hood at least one minute before starting to cook to direct fumes and vapours towards the suction surface. After cooking, leave the hood operating until complete extraction of all vapours and odours. By means of the Timer function, it is possible to set auto switch-off function which will allow the hood to turn off automatically after 15 minutes of operation.

WHICH SPEED IS TO BE SELECTED?

speed (1-3): maintains the circulation of clean air with low electricity consumption. speed (4-5): normal conditions of use. speed (6-7): presence of strong odours and vapours. speed (8-P): rapid disposal of odours and vapours

WHEN SHOULD THE FILTERS BE WASHED OR REPLACED?

The metal filters must be cleaned every 30 hours of operation. The active carbon filters must be replaced every 18 months and replaced every 3 years. For further details see the “MAINTENANCE” chap.

USEFUL CARE TIPS
Clean your glassceramic cooktop regularly, preferably every time you use it. Avoid using abrasive sponges or scouring agents. Harsh chemical cleaners like oven sprays or stain removers are also unsuitable, as are bathroom or household cleaners.

Accidents happen …
Do not allow the hot hob to come into contact with plastic, tin foil, sugar or sugary food have fallen on the hot glass-ceramic cooktop. Please scrape it off the hot surface as quickly as possible. If these substances melt, they can damage the glass-ceramic cooktop.

Sparkling results in only three steps:
To thoroughly clean your glass-ceramic cooktop, first remove dirt and food with a suitable metal scraper. Once the glass-ceramic cooktop has cooled, put a few drops of a suitable cleaner on it and rub it on with a paper towel or a clean cloth. Then wipe the glass-ceramic cooktop with a damp cloth and dry it with a clean cloth

How do I identify a suitable glass-ceramic scraper?

• Scraper made of metal (won’t melt or catch fire)
• Scraper easy to lock / to unlock
• Blade is fixed precisely, it does not shift
• Blade is unbroken, clean and stainless
• Scraper certified by testing institute, if procurable (e.g. TÜV-GS seal)
• User manual and safety instructions available

CLEANING OF INTERNAL SURFACES
Do not clean electrical parts, or parts related to the motor inside the hood, with liquids or solvents.
For the internal metal parts, see the previous paragraph.

METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS
It is advised to frequently wash the metal filters (F) (at least once a month) leaving them to soak in boiling water and cleaning solution for 1 hour, taking care not to bend them.

Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents. Rinse them well and wait for them to be completely dry before reassembling them.

Washing in a dishwasher is permitted To extract and insert the metal anti- grease filters see the assembly instructions.

CARBON-ZEO FILTERS
Under normal conditions, they should be regenerated every 18 months and replaced after 3 years. To regenerate the filter, follow the following procedure:

• Remove the filter as described in the instructions.
• Insert filters A, B and C (if any) in a domestic oven at 200°C for about 2 hours.
• When the filter has cooled down, refit the 4 filters onto the metal structure of the filter

GREASE DRIP TRAY
It is advisable to clean the tray every 1 month. Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents.For more thorough cleaning, remove the oil collection tray (see figure) and wash it with water and washing up liquid. Rinse it well and wait for it to be completely dry before reassembling it.
