SAFETY WARNINGS
It is recommended to use fl at-bottom pans with a diameter
equal to or slightly larger than that of the heated area. Do not
use pans with a rough base to prevent scratching the heat
surface of the cooktop (Fig.2).
This appliance is not suitable for use by children or persons
requiring supervision. Do not let children play with the ap-
pliance.
Before connecting the appliance to the electricity sup-
ply:
- Check that the voltage and power values listed on the data
plate (positioned on the lower part of the appliance) are com-
patible with the electricity supply and socket. If you have any
doubts, please consult a qualifi ed electrician for assistance.
Important
- Avoid spilling liquid, therefore to boil or heat liquids,
reduce the heat.
- Do not leave the heating elements on with empty pots
and pans or without receptacles.
- When you have fi nished cooking, switch off the relevant
heating element with the control indicated below.
Attention:
- Steam cleaners must not be used.
- If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions address specialised installers and serve
as a guide for installation, adjustment and maintenance in
conformity with the laws and regulations in force.
If a built-in oven or any other appliance that generates heat
must be fitted directly under the glass-ceramic cooktop,
THIS APPLIANCE (oven) AND THE GLASS-CERAMIC COOKTOP
MUST BE SUITABLY INSULATED in such a way that the heat
generated by the oven, measured on the bottom right of
the cooktop, does not exceed 60°C. Failure to respect this
precaution may determine improper functioning of the
TOUCHCONTROL system.
· Positioning (Fig.1)
The domestic appliance is designed to be built into a worktop
as illustrated in the specifi c fi gure. Apply sealant around the
entire perimeter (cut-out dimensions Fig.1B).
Fix the domestic appliance on the worktop by means of the
4 brackets provided, taking the thickness of the worktop into
account (Fig.1A). If the lower part of the appliance, after instal-
lation, is accessible via the lower part of the cabinet then it is
necessary to mount a separator panel respecting the distances
indicated (Fig.1C). If the appliance is installed with an oven
underneath then the separator is not necessary.
· Electrical connections
Before making the electrical connections, check that:
- the ground cable is 2 cm longer than the other cables;
- the system ratings meet the ratings indicated on the identi-
fi cation plate fi xed on the lower part of the worktop;
- the system is fi tted with effi
cient earthing compliant to the
laws and regulations in force.
Earthing is obligatory by law.
If the appliance is not fi tted with a cable, use type:
“H05V2V2-F” for a power level of up to 6400 Watts. The cross-
section of the cable should be at least 2.5 mm2, or 4 mm2 for
greater power levels.
The cable should never reach a temperature which is 50°C
above the temperature of the room in which it is installed.
The appliance is designed for permanent connection to the
electricity supply and should therefore be fitted with an
omnipolar switch which has a minimum opening of 3 mm
between contacts. The switch should be suitable for the char-
ge indicated on the appliance data plate and must conform to
all current legislation (the yellow/green earth wire must not
be interrupted by the switch).
The omnipolar switch must be easy to reach once the instal-
lation process has been completed.
USE AND MAINTENANCE
· Maintenance
Remove any residues of food and drops of grease from
the cooking surface using the special scraper supplied on
request (Fig.3)
Clean the heated area as thoroughly as possible using SIDOL,
STAHLFIX or similar products and a cloth/paper, then rinse
with water and dry with a clean cloth.
Using the special scraper (optional) immediately remove any
fragments of aluminium and plastic material that have unin-
tentionally melted on the heated cooking area or residues of
sugar or food with a high sugar content (Fig.3). In this way,
any damage to the cooktop surface is prevented.
Under no circumstances use abrasive sponges or irritating
chemical detergents such as oven sprays or stain removers.
