Positioning and levelling
It is possible to install the appliance alongside cupboards whose height does not exceed that of the hob surface. This cooker should be installed directly on the floor. Do not install this cooker on an artificial base of any kind. Make sure that the wall in contact with the back of the appliance is made from a non-flammable, heatresistant material (T 90°C). Important: Do not install this appliance adjacent to the door or other means of access to minimise the likelihood of persons using the door making contact with pans on the hob surface.
The appliance must not be installed behind a decorative door in order to avoid overheating
This appliance must not be fitted on a platform. The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets spaced 600mm apart. The space either side need only be sufficient to allow withdrawal of the cooker for servicing. It can be used with cabinets one side or both as well as in a corner setting. It can also be used free-standing. Adjacent side walls which project above hob level, must not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging surface or cooker hood should not be nearer than 650mm. a. The cooker may be located in a kitchen, a kitchen/
diner or bed sitting room, but not in a bathroom or shower room. b. The hoods must be installed according to the requirements in the hood handbook. c. The wall in contact with the back of the cooker must be of flameproof material. d. The cooker is fitted with a safety chain that must be attached to a hook, secured to the wall behind the appliance.

Moving the Cooker
Fig. A
Open the grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front edge of the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements. (FIG.A) Take care in moving the cooker as it is heavy. Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not damaged. The following instructions should be read by a qualified technician to ensure that the appliance is installed, regulated and technically serviced correctly in compliance with current regulations.

WARNING : This operation must be perfomed by a qualified technician

WARNINGS: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
The cooker must be connected to the mains by a switched (double pole) cooker outlet correctly fused with a capacity appropriate to that shown on the cooker Rating Plate. All electrical wiring from the consumer unit to the cooker, via the switched double pole cooker outlet, must be of an acceptable type and current rating as above. the supply cable must be positioned so that it
never reaches at any point a temperature 50°C higher than the room temperature. The cable must be routed away from the rear vents.

Safety Chain

In order to prevent accidental tipping of the appliance, for example by a child climbing onto the oven door, the supplied safety chain MUST be installed!

The cooker is fitted with a safety chain to be fixed by means of a screw (not supplied with the cooker) to the wall behind the appliance, at the same height as the chain is attached to the appliance.

Choose the screw and the screw anchor according to the type of material of the wall behind the appliance. If the head of the screw has a diameter smaller than 9mm, a washer should be used. Concrete wall requires the screw of at least 8mm of diameter, and 60mm of length.

Ensure that the chain is fixed to the rear wall of the cooker and to the wall, as shown in figure, so that after installation it is tensioned and parallel to the
ground level.

USING THE GLASS CERAMIC HOB

The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend you remove these with a special nonabrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

COOKING ZONES

The hob is equipped with electric radiant heating elements. When they are in use the following items on the hob become red.

A A
B

A . The cooking zone.
B . The residual heat indicator A light: this indicates that the
temperature of the A corresponding cooking zone is
greater than 60°C, even when the heating element has been switched off but is still hot.

SWITCHING THE COOKING ZONES ON AND OFF
To switch on a cooking zone turn the corresponding knob in a clockwise direction, to a position between 0 and 6.

To switch it off again, turn the knob in an anticlockwise direction until it is in the “0” position.

PRACTICAL ADVICE ON USING THE HOB
· Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.

· Always use pans with a diameter that is large enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all the heat produced.

Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The zones heat up and cool down quicker, providing greater controllability for sensitive foods. Each heating zone is equipped with a thermal limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the ceramic glass from overheating. After several minutes at full power without a pan on the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the heating elements off and on automatically to avoid any damage to the ceramic glass

· Always make sure that the base of the pan is completely clean and dry: this ensures that the pans adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and that both the pans and the hob last for a longer period of time.
· Avoid using the same cookware that is used on gas burners: the heat concentration on gas burners may have warped the base of the pan, causing it not to adhere to the surface correctly.
· Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone to become damaged.
