amendments;

- 2004/108/EEC dated 15/12/04 (Electromagnetic

!

 Make sure that the air inlet behind the fan grille is never 

obstructed. The built-in hob should, in fact, be provided 

with suitable ventilation for the cooling of the electronic 

components used in the appliance.

!

 We advise against the installation of an induction hob above 

an under-the-counter refrigerator (heat) or above a washing 

machine (vibrations). In fact, there would be insufficient space 

for the ventilation of electronic components.

•  The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the 

home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.

•  The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in 

covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the 

appliance exposed to rain and storms.

•  Do not touch the appliance when barefoot or with wet or 

damp hands and feet.

•  The appliance must be used by adults only for the 

preparation of food, in accordance with the instructions 

provided in this booklet. Do not use the hob as a worktop 

or chopping board.

•  The glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical shocks, 

but it may crack (or even break) if hit with a sharp object 

such as a tool. If this happens, disconnect the appliance 

from the electricity mains immediately and contact a 

Service Centre.

•  Ensure that power supply cables of other electrical 

appliances do not come into contact with the hot parts of 

the hob.

•  Remember that the cooking zones remain relatively hot for 

at least thirty minutes after they have been switched off. 

An indicator light provides a warning when residual heat 

is present (see Start-up and use).

•  Keep any object which could melt away from the hob, 

for example plastic and aluminium objects, or products 

with a high sugar content. Be especially careful when 

using plastic film and aluminium foil or packaging: if 

placed on surfaces which are still hot, they may cause 

serious damage to the hob.

•  Always make sure that pan handles are turned towards 

the centre of the hob in order to avoid accidental burns.

•  When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug 

from the mains socket; do not pull on the cable.

•  Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work 

without having disconnected the appliance from the 

electricity mains.

•  The appliance should not be operated by people 

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory 

or mental capacities, by inexperienced individuals or 

by anyone who is not familiar with the product. These 

individuals should, at the very least, be supervised 

by someone who assumes responsibility for their 

safety or receive preliminary instructions relating to 

the operation of the appliance.

•  For the attention of wearers of pacemakers or other 

active implants:

  The hob complies with all current standards on 

electromagnetic interference.

  Your induction hob is therefore perfectly in keeping 

with legal requirements (89/336/CEE directives). It 

is designed not to create interference on any other 

electrical apparatus being used on condition that 

the apparatus in question also complies with this 

legislation.

  Your induction hob generates short-range magnetic 

fields.

  To avoid any interference between your induction 

hob and a pacemaker, the latter must be designed to 

comply with relevant regulations.

  In this respect, we can only guarantee our own 

product conformity. Please consult the pacemaker 

manufacturer or your doctor concerning its conformity 

or any possible incompatibility.

•  Do not let children play with the appliance.

•  Do not place metal objects (knives, spoons, pan lids, 

etc.) on the hob as they may become hot.

•  The appliance is not intended to be operated by 

•  When disposing of packaging material: observe local 

legislation so that the packaging may be reused.

•  The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste 

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that 

household appliances should not be disposed of using 

the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances 

should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost 

of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine, 

while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and 

to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all 

products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding 

separated waste collection.

  For further information relating to the correct disposal of 

exhausted household appliances, owners may contact 

the public service provided or their local dealer.
