Do not store any object on the cooking areas of the stove- top. Prevent a possible fire hazard.
When the hotplates are in operation or have recently been in operation, some
areas will be hot and can burn. children should be kept well away.
Do not place metal objects,Such as knives, forks, spoons or lids on the
surface of the hob, as they may get very hot.
If you are frying oil, keep an eye on the cooking as the induction hobs heat
very quickly and they could ignite.
It is advisable not to use the induction hob during the pyro- litic cleaning function in the case of the pyrolitic ovens, due to the high temperature rea- ched by this appliance.
Installation
INSTALLATION AND SETUP SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY AN AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN IN LINE WITH CURRENT INSTALLATION STANDARDS
Positioning the hob
To install these models, an opening with the dimensions shown in figure 2 will
be cut into the unit’s worktop.
The worktop tastening system is suitable for units 20, 30 and 40 mm thick.
The minimum distance between the surface supporting the cooking pans and the
lower part of the kitchen unt or the hood located above the hob should be 650
mm. if the hood’s installation instructions recommend that the gap s greater
than this, you should follow this advice.
The unit where the hob and oven will be located will be suitably fixed.
INSTALLATION WITH CUTLERY DRAWER OR LoWER CABINET
In mixed induction vitroceramic hobs, if you would like to have a cabinet or a
cutlery drawer under the hob, it is necessary to put a separation board in
between the two.
The board should be situated 20 mm below the underside of the hob, leaving a
free space of at least 20 mm until the end of the cabinet (figure 1).
This prevents accidental contact with the hot surface of the casing of the
heating elements under the apparatus (figure 1).
Please do not store objects that can obstruct the hob fans or possibly
flammable materials in the draw er.
INSTALLATION WITH FAN OVEN UNDER THE HOB
The oven should be installed according to the correspond- ing manual.
An opening of 20 mm should be made in the back part of the cabinet in order to
allow cold air to enter (see figure 1)
When hobs are handled before being installed, care should be taken in case
there is any protruding part or sharp edge which could cause injury.
When installing units or applian ces above the hob, the hob should be
protected by a board so that the glass cannot be damaged by accidental blows
or heavy weights.
The glues used in manufacturing the kitchen unit and in the adhesive on the decorative laminate of the worktop surface should be made to tolerate tempera- tures of up to 100°C.
MEG assumes no responsibility for any malfunc- tion or damage caused by faulty
installation.
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE GUA RANTEE DOES NOT COVER THE GLASS IF IT SUFFERS A
VIOLENT BLOW ORIF IT IS USED IMPROPERLY.
Fastering the hob
When the gap has been properly sized, the sealing washer should be put on the
lower face of the glass. Silicone should not be applied between the glass and
the unit worktop because if it becomes necessary to remove the hob ffom its
position, the glass could break when trying to detach it.
To secure the hob to the cabinet, four brackets should be fastened to the
existing hole son the bottom part of the casing (two in the front and two in
the back). There are two possibilities of where the brackets may be placed,
just as is shown in figure 3.
Depending on the thickness of the cabinet, it may be necessary to use the self tapping screws that are provided as compliments for securing; insert them in the circular holes of the bracket. The thread of this hole will be made when the screw is inserted inside of it. The thread should be made before fastening the bracket to the hob.
Connecting the electricity
The electric connection is made via an omnipolar switch or plug where
accessible, which is suitable for the intensity to be tolerated and which has
a minimum gap of 3 mm between its contacts, which will ensure disconnection in
case of emergency or when cleaning the hob.
The connection should include correct earthing, in compliance with current
norms.
If the flexible supply cable fitted to these appliances ever needs to be
changed, it should be replaced by SMEG’s official service.
The input cable should not be in contact either with the body of the hob or
with the body of the oven, if the oven is installed in the same unit.
