important instructions regarding safety of installation, use
and maintenance.
Keep the leaflet for possible future consultation. All the
operations relating to installation/replacement (electrical
connections) must be carried out by specialised personnel
in conformity with the regulations in force.
SAFETY WARNINGS
It is recommended to use flat-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.
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 finished 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
prevent electric shock.
- This appliance is not intended for use by young children
or infirm persons without supervision
- Young children should be supervised to ensure they do
not play with the appliance

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 SUIT-
ABLY 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 TOUCH CONTROL system.
• Positioning (Fig.1)
The domestic appliance is designed to be built into a worktop
as illustrated in the specific figure. Apply sealant around the
entire perimeter (cut-out dimensions Fig.1B). Fix the domes-
tic 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 installation, 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
identification plate fixed on the lower part of the worktop;
- the system is fitted with efficient earthing compliant to
the laws and regulations in force.
Earthing is obligatory by law.
If the appliance is not fitted 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 unintentionally 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.
• Use
Use the touch control system for the position that corresponds
to cooking needs, keeping in mind that higher the selected
number is and the more heat is given off.
