Installation
Using the hob
Identify the model of your hob (“a”, “b”, “c”, “d”,
“e”, “f”, “g”, “h”, “i”, “j”, “k”, “l”) by comparing the
number and arrangement of the rings on your hob
with those shown in the illustrations.
1.1 Unpacking the hob. Remove all the
protective elements.
1.2 Recess-mounting in a kitchen fi tting.
Always take into account the reference plate
data (1.2.1), the ventilation areas (1.2.2)
and the dimensions of the kitchen fi tting in
which you are to recess-mount the plate
(1.2.3). Stick the foam seal all around the hob
perimeter for good impermeability (1.2.4).
Turn the hob around and fi t it into the space
(1.2.5). Fix it to the kitchen fi tting with the
four clips supplied (1.2.6). Make sure air can
circulate from the rear of the hob, exiting
from the front (1.2.7).
1.3 Mains connection. The hob is supplied with
a power cable. Check which type of cable
the hob is provided with, according to the
number and colours of the wires: 3-wire
cable (1.3.1) a) yellow and green, b) blue,
c) brown. 5-wire cable (1.3.2) a) yellow and
green, b) blue, c) brown, d) black, e) grey.
8-wire cable (1.3.3) a) yellow and green, b)
blue, c) brown, d) black, e) grey.
Recommendation: The hob must be installed
by an authorised installer following the
manufacturer’s instructions and diagrams. If an
oven of another brand is installed, it must be
insulated from the hob. The induction hob must
not be installed on top of a dishwasher, washing
machine, refrigerator or freezer. Do not use
non-removable materials such as silicone. The
distance between the edge of the hob and the
side or rear wall must be at least 40 mm.

Identifi cation
Before using your new hob for the fi rst time,
remember that induction is a technology whereby
heat is transmitted directly to the pan. All the pans
you use must therefore have a ferromagnetic
base.
2.1 Choosing a pan. It is very important to
choose the type of pan so that the best
possible hob performance and cooking
results are obtained. In principle, any pan is
suitable for induction cooking if a magnet
sticks to its base. (2.1.1). Place the food
to be cooked in the pan. Never heat up an
empty pan on the hob. (2.1.2). For radiant
vitro-ceramic rings, ceramic, copper and
stainless steel pans can also be used.
Aluminium pans are not advisable as they
could stain the hob glass.
2.2 Choosing a ring. There are several rings
you can place the pan on
. Choose the best one according to the
size of the pan. If the base of the pan is too
small, the power indicator will fl ash and the
ring will not switch on, even though the pan
is suitable for induction cooking. Make sure
you are not using pans with a smaller base
diameter than those shown on the chart.

Recommendation: Do not drag the pans along
the hob glass, as this could cause scratches.
Do not place any metal objects such as knives,
forks or pan lids on the hob surface, as they
could heat up.
