Precautions and tips
 This appliance has been designed and
manufactured in compliance with international safety
standards. The following warnings are provided for
safety reasons and must be read carefully.
General safety
 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 with bare feet or with
wet or damp hands and feet.
 The instruction booklet accompanies a class 1
(insulated) or class 2 - subclass 1 (recessed
between 2 cupboards) appliance.
 Do not touch the heating elements or certain
parts of the oven door when the appliance is in
use; these parts become extremely hot. Kee
p
children well away from the appliance.
 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.
 If the surface of the hob is cracked, switch off the
appliance to prevent electric shocks from
occurring.
 Make sure that the power supply cables of other
electrical appliances do not come into contact
with the hot parts of the oven.
 The openings used for the ventilation and
dispersion of heat must never be covered.
 Always use oven gloves when placing cookware
in the oven or when removing it.
 Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol,
etc...) near the appliance while it is in use.
 Do not place flammable material in the lower
storage compartment or in the oven itself. If the
appliance is switched on accidentally, the
materials could catch fire.
 The internal surfaces of the compartment (where
present) may become hot.
 Always make sure the knobs are in the  position
when the appliance is not in use.
 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.
 If the appliance breaks down, under no
circumstances should you attempt to perform the
repairs yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or further
malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact
Assistance.
 Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
 Remember that the temperature of the cooking
zones remains relatively high 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 that could melt away from the
hob, for example plastic and aluminium objects,
or products with a high sugar content. Keep
plastic and aluminium film and packaging away
from the hob: if placed on surfaces that are still
hot, they may cause serious damage to the hob.
 Always make sure pan handles are turned
towards the centre of the hob in order to avoid
accidental burns.
 Do not place metal objects (knives, spoons, pan
lids, etc.) on the hob as they may become hot.
 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.
 If the cooker is placed on a pedestal, take the
necessary precautions to prevent the same from
sliding off the pedestal itself.
 After use, switch off the hob element by its control
and do not rely on the pan detector.
 Do not let children play with 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.
 The appliance must be used by adults only for
the preparation of food, in accordance with the
instructions outlined in this booklet. Any other
use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room)
constitutes improper use
and is dangerous.
The manufacturer may not be held liable for
any damage resulting from improper, incorrect
and unreasonable use of the .
