Hob description  
This hob is fitted with:  
1. one "Haloring" halogen cooking zone with circular lamps:  
on the back left, 2500W - Ø 230 mm,  
3 "Quickring" radiant cooking zones:  
on the back right, one 1500W zone - Ø 180 mm,  
on the front left, one 1200W zone - Ø 165 mm,  
on the front right, one 1800W zone - Ø 145 mm.  
i.e. for a total power of 7000W.  
2. residual heat indicators: even after the zone has been turned off, the indicator light stays for as long as the  
corresponding zone is at a temperature above 60°C.  
3. electronic touch controls. It is easy to tell which control corresponds to which cooking zone thanks to the diagrams  
of the zone control keys.

Cooking zone control  
Each cooking zone is controlled by a set comprising two parts:  
a top part,  
a lower part.  
To turn on a cooking zone and turn up the heat, press the top part of the key corresponding to  
the chosen zone.The power setting is directly proportional to the amount of time your finger presses  
the key itself, and is displayed with the utmost precision on the power level display (15 stages).  
To turn down the heat, press the lower part of the key.  
To set the maximum power quickly, press the lower part of the key briefly: the 15 temperature  
stages are immediately lit (the cooking zone is on 100% power).  
To turn off the cooking zone, press both the lower and top parts of the key simultaneously: the  
zone power goes straight back down to zero and the power level display turns off;  
or press the lower part: the cooking zone power decreases gradually, as does the power level  
display, until they both turn off.  
Controls lock  
When the hob is in use, you can lock the control panel to avoid any accidental changes to the settings (by children or when  
cleaning, for example). Just touch the  
key, and the indicator light beside the key turns off.  
To change the power level setting or stop cooking, the controls have to be unlocked: press the  
key for 2 seconds:  
the controls are enabled again.  
Safety devices  
Several safety devices have been fitted onto the hob to protect its electronic components.After unlocking the control panel,  
if no keys are pressed for 30 minutes, the unlock indicator light turns off: the hob is locked.  
Blinking indicators and acoustic signal  
Anomalies such as:  
an object (such as a saucepan or a lid, etc.) placed for more than 10 seconds on the control zone,  
boiled-over liquids or food spilled on the control zone,  
prolonged pressure on a key,...  
could cause the acoustic signal to sound, followed by the blinking of the 4 power level displays; the control panel  
indicator light turns off and the cooking zone(s) in use turn(s) off.  
to stop the beep from sounding, remove the cause of the malfunction,  
to put a stop to the blinking, press key  
controls can be used again).

Overheating  
Prolonged use of the hob could cause the electronic components to overheat.  
A thermal protection device momentarily sets a reduced power (setting 3) on the right-hand cooking zones.The power  
level displays blink in sequence to advise you that this safety measure has been taken.  
When the temperature has gone back to normal, the power level display sequential blinking stops, the power settings  
remains low but the zones can be used at higher power settings if need be.

Using the cooking zones  
The "Haloring" cooking zone comprises a circular halogen lamp for the optimum distribution of the heat radiated. Its  
properties are similar to those of gas burners, making it ideal for quick frying over a high flame, frying and all other cooking  
processes requiring a rapid rise in temperature.  
The "Quickring" radiant cooking zone comprises several coils that guarantee the distribution of the heat over the  
bottom of the cookware.The stable and homogeneous distribution of heat will guarantee the success of all cooking on low  
heat. simmering, sauces or reheating.  
Cooking zone control  
Halogen zones and radiant zones feature touch controls with 15 stages to ensure the correct supply of energy according  
to time: the cooking zones do not heat constantly, but rather in pre-set sequences. Consequently they offer the utmost  
reliability, extremely quick temperature rises and accurate control, ideal for cooking over very low heat and for simmering  
delicate dishes.  
very fierce (steaks, to bring liquids to the boil, etc.),  
fierce (fish, omelettes, etc.),  
moderate - simmering (pasta and rice on reaching boiling point, potatoes, stews, blanquette, vegetables, fruit,  
soups, sauerkraut, hotpots, etc.),  
low (to reduce sauces, scrambled eggs, keeping food warm, etc.),  
very low (melted butter, melted chocolate, etc.).  
What cookware to use  
Use pans with a very thick flat bottom so they adhere fully to the heating zone.  
The diameter of the pans must match the diameter of the cooking zone so that all the available heat can be used.  
Avoid at all costs all cookware with irregular rough bases which could scratch the glass surface.  
It is preferable that you cover your cookware with a suitable lid to speed up the rise in temperature.

Maintenance and useful tips  
Maintenance  
Turn the hob off by pressing the  
key.  
Should you accidentally press the ON/OFF key and turn the hob back on during cleaning, turn it off immediately.  
The vitroceramic glass used for the heating surface is smooth and poreless and it is also resistant to thermal shocks and  
to mechanical shocks under normal conditions of use. In order to preserve these properties, we recommend you care for  
your hob as follows:  
for ordinary maintenance, just wipe it with a damp sponge and dry it thoroughly using paper towels.  
If the hob is dirty, rub clean using a special cleaner suitable for vitroceramic glass, rinse off and dry thoroughly.  
food residue and dirt can be removed using a special scraper. Do this as soon as possible, do not wait for the hob  
to cool down in order to avoid incrustations.For excellent results, use a special stainless steel wool pad for vitroceramic  
glass cleaning soaked in soapy water.  
When the hob is clean, you can apply a special product for the care and protection of the same: this type of product  
leaves an invisible film on the surface of the hob to protect the same against any spills and boiled-over food. It is best  
if you do this when the hob is lukewarm or cold.  
Make sure you always rinse the hob with clean water and dry it thoroughly: otherwise the cleaning products could  
become encrusted onto the hob during subsequent cooking.  
Do not use steam cleaners or high pressure cleaners to clean your appliance.  
Precautions  
Never use abrasive or corrosive substances, such as aerosol cleaners for grills and ovens, stain removers or  
rust removers, scouring powders and abrasive sponges: even the delicate ones could scratch the hob surface  
irreversibly.  
We recommend you keep all items which could melt away from the hob, such as plastic utensils, sugar or  
products with a high sugar content.Should liquid boil over onto the hob surface, remove it immediately (while the  
hob is still hot) using a razor blade scraper, in order to avoid damaging the surface.  
Use this hob exclusively for cooking. Do not place items on the hob when the same is not in use. Do not use the  
hob as a work surface (by placing lids, saucepans or dishcloths on it, for example), nor as a chopping board.  
Never leave aluminium wrappers, aluminium foil and plastic cookware on the hob when hot or still warm.  
If you use small electric appliances near the hob, make sure their power supply cable does not come into contact  
with the hot parts of the hob.  
Make sure all pan handles are always pointing inwards towards the centre of the hob to prevent any accidental  
spills.  
Certain fundamental rules must be followed when using electrical appliances. The following are of particular  
importance:  
do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands,  
never use the appliance when barefoot,  
do not use extensions; if this is inevitable, please take the necessary precautions,  
never pull on the power supply cable or the appliance itself to unplug it from the mains socket,  
never leave the appliance exposed to atmospheric agents (rain, sun, etc.),  
do not allow children or persons who are not familiar with the appliance to use it without supervision.  
If the surface of the glass cracks, unplug the appliance immediately.For any repairs, contact only an authorised  
after-sales service centre and demand original spare parts. Failure to comply with the above may compromise the  
safety of the appliance.  
The glass ceramic hob is resistant to thermal and mechanical shocks. However, it may break due to a shock  
caused by a sharp object, such as a tool for example. In this case, unplug the appliance immediately and  
contact an authorised after-sales service centre to have it repaired.  
Cut the power supply cable after disconnecting it from the power mains when you decide not to use the appliance  
any longer. Also make all potentially dangerous parts of the appliance safe, above all for children who could play with  
the appliance.  
Do not stare at the halogen lamps featured by the cooking zones.  
The guarantee does not cover damage to the hob caused by incorrect use.

Recommendations  
When you have removed the packing, check whether the appliance is intact. If you have any doubts, contact a  
qualified professional before using the appliance.  
Never leave the packing components (plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) within the reach of children since  
these are a source of potential danger.  
The installation and electrical connection of your appliance should be performed by an authorised fitter or equivalent  
qualified technical serviceman.  
In the event of damage during transportation, do not commission the appliance.  
If the appliance is faulty, unplug it from the mains electricity supply and call your nearest authorised after-sales  
service centre.  
The latter denies all responsibility for improper installation which may harm persons and animals and damage  
property.  
Installation  
This hob can be built into a worktop simply by cutting out the corresponding slot.  
The worktop must be made with a material designed to withstand a temperature of approximately 100°C.  
The hob should be positioned at least 40 mm away from the back wall or any other vertical surface in order to allow  
for correct ventilation and to prevent the surfaces around the appliance from overheating.  
If you wish to install the hob on top of an oven, the latter must be fitted with a cooling fan.  
Try to avoid installing the hob on top of a dishwasher; if this is unavoidable, place a watertight separating element  
between the two appliances.  
Distance to

keep between the  
cut-out slot and  
the cabinet  
Fastening  
Your hob is supplied with a seal.  
Make sure it adheres perfectly to the lower surface of the hob frame. It is extremely important that the seal covers all the  
hob corners completely and that it seals the latter perfectly along all its perimeter to ensure the full airtightness between  
the hob and the worktop in order to prevent any accidental spills from penetrating the furniture cabinet beneath the hob.  
Very important: It is vital that you ensure the glass ceramic hob is built into a perfectly flat supporting surface.Deformations  
due to improper fastening could alter the characteristics of the hob and compromise its performance.  
The fastening springs are fastened by Torx screws (see diagram on the next page).  
To remove the hob from its place of installation, you should either unscrew the Torx screws at the front or the Torx screws  
at the back.  
This is why it is vital that these screws be kept accessible at all times.  
Insert the hob into the cut-out slot, applying pressure all along the perimeter of the hob frame so that the latter adheres fully  
to the worktop.
