If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced only by an authorized service agent in order to avoid a hazard.
If the appliance is not fitted with a supply cord and a plug, or with other means for disconnection from the supply mains having a contact separation in all poles that provide full disconnection under overvoltage category III conditions, means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
WARNING: The appliance and its accessible parts become hot during use.Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements. Children less than 8 years of age shall be kept away unless continuously supervised.
WARNING: Use only hob guards designed by the manufacturer of the cooking appliance or indicated by the manufacturer of the appliance in the instructions for use as suitable or hob guards incorporated in the appliance. The use of inappropriate guards can cause accidents.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced only by an authorized service agent in order to avoid a hazard. Induction hobs:
Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the hob surface since they can get hot.
Do not use metallic kitchen utensils (e.g. ladles). It is preferable to use plastic or wood kitchen utensils.
Please use pans of recommended size (see minimum pan diameter recommended). It is not advisable to use pans smaller than the cooking zone. The pans have to be placed in the centre of the cooking zone.
Do not use defective pans or pans with a curved bottom.
Please use suitable pans marked for induction cooking.
Please keep your distance from the electromagnetic fields by standing 5-10 cm from the cooking zones. When possible use the rear cooking zones.
Magnetic objects (e.g. credit cards, floppy disks, memory cards) and electronic instruments (e.g. computers) should not be placed near the induction hob.
The heating of magnetic tins is forbidden! Closed tins may explode by exceeding pressure while heating. There is a burning risk with open tins as well, because the integrated temperature protection will not work correctly. IMPORTANT WARNING: The induction hob complies with European Standards for domestic cooking appliances. Therefore it should not interfere with other electronic units. Persons with cardiac pacemakers or any other electrical implants must check with their doctor if they can use an induction cooking system (and check any possible interferences with the implants). Energy labelling/ecodesign
Commission delegated regulation (EU) No 65/2014 (supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council).
Commission regulation (EU) No 66/2014 (implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council). Reference to the measurement and calculation methods used to establish compliance with the above requirements:
Standard EN 60350-1 (electric ovens).
Standard EN 60350-2 (hobs: electric cooking zones and/or areas). Use of the appliance, energy saving tips oven
Check the oven door always closes properly and the door gasket is clean and in order. During use, open the oven door only when strictly necessary to avoid heat losses (for some functions it may be necessary to use the oven with the door half-closed, check the oven operating instructions).
Turn off the oven 5-10 minutes before the end of the theoretical cooking time to recuperate the stored heat.
We recommend using oven proof dishes and adjusting the oven temperature during cooking if necessary. Hob Induction cooking zones and/or areas
To save electricity, use lids whenever possible.
When the pan comes to the boil, turn the heat down to the level desired.
Please use suitable pans marked for induction cooking. Some cookware available on the market has an effective ferromagnetic area which is much smaller than the diameter of the pan itself. Avoid using this cookware because the induction cooktop may not function properly or may be damaged.
Always use pans/coffee pots with thick, completely flat bottom. Do not use pans/coffee pots with concave or convex bottom; these could cause overheating of the cooking zone.
Important: Do not use pots/coffee pot adaptors. Advice for the installer Important
Cooker installation must only be carried out by QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS and in compliance with local safety standards. Failure to install the appliance correctly could invalidate any manufacturer's warranty.
The appliance must be installed in compliance with regulations in force in your country and in observation of the manufacturer's instructions.
Always disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply before carrying out any maintenance operations or repairs.
Some appliances are supplied with a protective film on steel and aluminium parts. This film must be removed before using the cooker. 1 Cooking hob Note The Nominal and Booster Power may change depending on the size and material of the pan set on the cooking zone. Do not cover the hob with aluminium foils. Attention Detach the appliance from the mains if the ceramic glass is cracked and contact the After-Sales Service. Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the hob surface since they can get hot. 2 Control panel Note Your appliance has been fitted with a cooling fan to achieve optimum efficiency of the controls and to ensure lower surface temperatures are maintained. When the oven is operating the cooling fan motor switches ON/OFF depending on temperature. Depending on cooking temperatures and times, the cooling fan may run on even after appliance has been switched off. The duration of this time is dependent on previous cooking temperature and duration. 3 Use of induction hob Note Each lit figure refers to the relevant cooking zone Induction cooking system When your induction hob is switched on and a cooking zone has been selected, the electronic circuits produce induced currents that instantaneously heat the bottom of the pan which then transfers this heat to the food. Cooking takes place with hardly any energy loss between the induction hob and the food. Your induction hob operates only if a correct pan with the right features is placed on a cooking zone. Please refer to cookware for induction cooking. If the pan detection symbol appears on the display, your pan is not suitable and your induction hob will not operate After 10 minutes without detecting any pan, the cooking zone switches Off automatically and can only be switched On after the control knob has been returned into “O” (Off) setting. Remaining heat indicators When the temperature of a cooking zone is still hot, the relevant H remaining heat indicator lights up on the display to alert you of the hot surface. Avoid touching the hob surface over the cooking area. Please pay special attention to children. When the 7 is lit on the display, it is still possible to start cooking again; just turn the control knob to the required power level. Cookware for induction cooking The induction cooking system OPERATES ONLY if using correct cookware suitable for induction cooking. The bottom of the pan has to be ferromagnetic to generate the electromagnetic field necessary for the heating process (meaning a magnet has to stick to the bottom of the pan). Pans made from the following materials are not suitable:
Glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, stoneware;
Pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without magnetic bottom. To check if a pan is suitable or not:
test the bottom of the pan with a magnet: if the magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.
if a magnet is not available pour a small amount of water inside the pan and place the pan on a cooking zone. Switch on the cooking zone: if the symbol (pan detection) appears on the cooking zone display (instead of the power level), the pan is not suitable. Important The cooking zones will not operate if the pan diameter is too small (pan detection symbol will appear on the cooking zone display). To correctly use the cooking zones follow the indications given in the following table. Attention The pan shall always be centred over the middle of the cooking zone. It is possible to use oversized pans but the bottom of the pan cannot touch other cooking zones. Always use pans with thick, completely flat bottom. Do not use pans with concave or convex bottom; these could cause overheating of the cooking zone. Note Some types of pans could cause noise when used on an induction cooking zone. The noise does not mean any failure on the appliance and does not influence the cooking operation. Control knobs Each cooking zone is adjusted by a separate control knob positioned on the control panel and the operation is controlled by the electronic system. If a cooking zone is not turned Off the electronic system automatically switches it Off after a pre-set time which depends on the power setting. Operation time limit of cooking zones Each cooking zone is automatically switched off after a maximum preset time if no operation is performed. The maximum preset time limit depends on the set power level, as illustrated in this schedule. Each operation on the cooking hob by using the knob will reset the maximum operation time at its initial value. 1 - 9 power level Turn the knob clockwise to set the desired power level between 1 (minimum) and 9 (maximum). The power level can be modified at any time by turning the knob clockwise or anti-clockwise to a different setting. The cooking zone display shows the selected level. Examples of cooking power setting "Fast heating" function Turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the “A” setting and then release the knob (after the "beep"); the relative symbol lights up on the cooking zone display. Turn the knob to the desired power level (between 1 and 9); within 5 seconds once a setting has been selected, 7 and the chosen power level will flash in alternation on the control panel display. This function allows the cooking zone to operate at the maximum power (100%) for a proportional time to the selected power level; after this time the cooking zone will operate at the selected level. This function is available on all the cooking zones. While this function is operating it is possible, at any time, to increase the selected power level but it is not possible to decrease the power; by turning the knob anti-clockwise to a lower level the function will be disabled. The function will be disabled also by turning the knob to the "O" (Off) position or by selecting the “Booster” function. Note If removing the pan from the cooking zone before the programme has been completed, the “Fast heating” function will be completed with the remaining time if the pan is put back on the cooking zone within 10 minutes. "Booster" function Turn the control knob clockwise to set the maximum power level (9), then turn clockwise again to the “P” setting and release the knob (after the "beep"); the control knob returns to the maximum setting (9) automatically and the relative symbol lights up on the cooking zone display. The "Booster" program is now operative. This function allows the cooking zone to operate at the Booster maximum power (above the nominal power) for a maximum 5 minutes; it could be used, for example, to rapidly heat up large amount of water. This function is available on the front left/rear right zones. To disable this function turn the knob anti-clockwise to a lower power level or to the “0” (Off). The “Booster” is also disabled by turning the knob again to the “P” setting; in this case the cooking zone operates at the power level 9. Note: if a cooking zone is still hot, it is not possible to use the “Booster” function and will flash if you try to activate. The cooking zone is automatically set to the maximum power level (9). The "Booster" function is always limited to a maximum of 5 minutes. You can activate the “Booster” function again after 5 minutes. Important notes The "Booster” function is not suitable for use with non water based cooking. Do not use this function for heating oil (e.g. deep fat frying) Maximum usable power for the cooking zones The right and left cooking zones are controlled by two separate power boards and the maximum total power per each power board is 3700 W. Should the cooking zones of one power board require more than 3700 W, the last selected power level has priority and the power of the other cooking zone is automatically reduced to the remaining power available. If this occurs, the cooking zone will display a flashing figure for about 3 seconds before automatically displaying the new power level. This means for example that:
When setting a “Booster” programme for the second zone, the setting for the other zone could be reduced to the remaining power available.
When setting a “Booster” programme for a zone and then another setting on the second zone, if the total power exceed 3700 W the "Booster" programme is deleted and the power reduced to the maximum power available. Thermal protections The induction hob is fitted with safety devices to protect the electronic system and to protect each cooking zone from overheating. In case of overheating, one of the following automatic functions could be started by the electronic system:
"Booster" program deleted and power reduced;
one or more cooking zone switched off;
cooling fan motor of the induction unit switched on. Childlock safety When not using the induction hob, set the childlock safety to prevent children from accidentally switching on the cooking zones. Ensure all cooking zones are switched off, then turn the control knobs of the left cooking zones simultaneously to the left (“A” setting) and hold the knobs in this position until 4 lights up on the cooking zones display; then release the knobs. To deactivate the childlock repeat the same procedure until 7 lights up on the cooking zones display; then release the knobs. Error codes on cooking zone display Advice for safe use of the hob
Before switching on make sure that you have the correct knob for the hotplate chosen. It is advisable to put the pan on the hotplate before switching on and to take it away after switching off.
Use cookware with flat and even bottoms. Uneven bottoms can scratch the glass ceramic surfaces. Be careful that the bottom is clean and dry.
Do not leave wet or damp lids on the hob.
The glass-ceramic surface and pans must be clean. Carefully eliminate any food remains (especially containing sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a cleansing agent.
Make sure that the handles of cookware do not stick out over the edge of the cooker, to avoid them being knocked over by accident. This also makes it more difficult for children to reach the cooking vessels.
Do not lean over the cooking zones when they are switched on.
Do not drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass ceramic cooktop. If the surface is broken or damaged unplug the cooktop and contact the after-sales service.
Do not put aluminium foil or plastic objects on the cooking zones when they are hot. Follow the cleaning instructions carefully. Cleaning
Before you start cleaning make sure that the appliance is switched off.
Remove any encrustation using the scraper provided.
Dust or food particles can be removed with a damp cloth.
If you use a detergent, please make sure that it is not abrasive or scouring. Abrasive or scouring powders can damage the glass surface of the hob.
All traces of the cleaner have to be removed with a damp cloth.
It is highly recommended to keep off the hob any article which can melt: plastic, aluminium foil, sugar, sugar syrup mixtures etc.
If any of these products has melted on the ceramic surface, you should remove it immediately (when the surface is still hot) by using the scraper to avoid any permanent damage to the surface of the hob.
Avoid using any knife or sharp utensil since these can damage the ceramic.
Do not use steel wool or an abrasive sponge which could scratch the surface in an irreparable way Attention: most important! If cleaning the glass ceramic hob using a special tool (i.e. scraper) take extra care to avoid damage to the seal at the edges of the glass ceramic surface. Do not scratch the cooktop with cutting or sharp objects. Do not use the glass ceramic surface as a work surface. 4 Multifunction oven (left) Attention The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away. General features As its name indicates, this is an oven that presents particular features from an operational point of view. In fact, it is possible to insert 8 different programs to satisfy every cooking need. The 8 positions, thermostatically controlled, are obtained by 4 heating elements which are:
Bottom element
Top element
Grill element
Circular element Note Upon first use, it is advisable to operate the oven for 30 minutes in the position and for another 30 minutes at the maximum temperature (thermostat knob on position 250) in the positions and to eliminate possible traces of grease on the Heating elements. Clean the oven and accessories with warm water and washing-up liquid. Warning The door is hot, use the handle. During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven. Operating principles Heating and cooking in the multifunction oven are obtained in the following ways: A) By normal convection The heat is produced by the upper and lower heating elements. B) By forced convection A fan sucks the air contained in the oven muffle, which sends it through the circular heating element and then sends it back through the muffle. Before the hot air is sucked back again by the fan to repeat the described cycle, it envelops the food in the oven, provoking a complete and rapid cooking. It is possible to cook several dishes simultaneously. C) By semi-forced convection The heat produced by the upper and lower heating elements is distributed throughout the oven by the fan. D) By radiation The heat is irradiated by the infra red grill element. E) By radiation and ventilation The irradiated heat from the infra red grill element is distributed throughout the oven by the fan. F) By ventilation The food is defrosted by using the fan only function without heat. Thermostat knob (fig. 4.2) To turn on the heating elements of the oven, set the switch knob on the desired program and the thermostat knob onto the desired temperature. To set the temperature, it is necessary to make the knob indicator meet the chosen number. Function selector knob (fig. 4.1) Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions: OVEN LIGHT By turning the knob onto this setting we light the oven cavity. The oven remains alight while any of the functions is on. TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING The upper and lower heating elements are switched on. The heat is diffused by natural convection and the temperature must be regulated between 50°C and 250°C with the thermostat knob. It is necessary to preheat the oven before introducing the foods to be cooked. Recommended for: For dishes that need to be cooked fully. Example: chicken, ribs or pork, foam (merengue) cake. GRILLING The infra-red heating element is switched on. The heat is diffused by radiation. Use with the oven door closed and the thermostat knob to between 50° and 225°C for max 15 minutes, then to position 175°C. Note: It is recommended that you do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time. Attention: The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away. For correct use see chapter “USE OF THE GRILL” Recommended for: Intense grilling action for cooking with a broiler; browning, crisping, "au gratin”, toasting, etc. DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS Only the oven fan is on. To be used with the thermostat knob on “ • ” because the other positions have no effect. The defrosting is done by simple ventilation without heat. Recommended for: To rapidly defrost frozen foods; 1 kilogram requires about one hour. The defrosting times vary according to the quantity and type of foods to be defrosted. HOT AIR COOKING The circular element and the fan are on. The heat is diffused by forced convection and the temperature must be regulated between 50° and 250 °C with the ther mostat knob. It is not necessary to preheat the oven. Recommended for: For foods that must be well done on the outside and tender or rare on the inside, i. e. lasagna, lamb, roast beef, whole fish, etc. VENTILATED GRILL COOKING The infrared ray grill and the fan are on. The heat is mainly diffused by radiation and the fan then distributes it throughout the oven. The temperature must be regulated between 50°C and 225°C maximum for max 30 minutes, with the thermostat knob. It is necessary to preheat the oven for about 5 minutes. For correct use see chapter "Grilling and “au gratin"" on page 32. Attention The oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away. Recommended for: For grill cooking when a fast outside browning is necessary to keep the juices in, i. e. veal steak, steak, hamburger, etc. SLOW HEATING AND KEEPING FOOD WARM - ECO FUNCTION (ENERGY SAVING) SLOW HEATING AND KEEPING FOOD WARM The circular element and the fan are on. The heat is diffused by forced convection. The temperature must be regulated between 50°C and 140°C with the thermostat knob. Recommended for: To keep foods hot after cooking. To slowly heat already cooked foods. ECO FUNCTION (ENERGY SAVING) The circular element and the fan are on. The heat is diffused by forced convection. This function reduces the appliance's energy consumption, it is therefore particularly beneficial for the gentle cooking of small quantities of food on a single shelf. It is not necessary to preheat the oven and use with the oven door closed. Cooking times may be longer than standard functions. Do not use this function to preheat the oven. Recommended for: Foods that require gentle cooking. To keep foods hot after cooking. To slowly heat already cooked foods. THAWING AND WARMING UP The upper and lower heating elements and the fan turn on. The heat coming from the top and bottom is diffused by forced convection. The temperature must be regulated between 50°C and the maximum temperature with the thermostat knob. Recommended for: For foods of large volume a
