2 POSITIONING OF THE HOB
The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work so must be carried out by a competent tradesman.
Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood as long as they are heat resistant (T 90°C).
2.1 Attachment to support structure
Create an opening with the dimensions shown in the figure in the top surface of the counter, keeping a minimum distance of 50 mm from the rear border.
This appliance is classified as “type Y” in relation to fire hazards and can therefore be mounted against walls higher than the work surface on condition that a certain distance “X” be kept between the appliance and the wall as shown in the figure so as to avoid damage from overheating.
Make sure there is a minimum of 750 mm between the hot plate flames and any shelf that may be installed directly above them.
Carefully position the insulating seal supplied on the outer perimeter of the hole made in the counter top as shown in figure 4 (the dimensions in the figure refer from the hole to the inside of the seal), trying to ensure that it sticks across the whole of its surface by applying light pressure with your hands. Fix the hob to the unit using the appropriate brackets B and spacers A as shown in graphics 1, 2 and 3. Spacers A will help to keep the hob top at the right distance from the edge of the counter top to avoid future overheating during operation. Carefully trim the surplus away from edge C beyond the seal (Fig.5).

7 USING THE HOB
Before turning on the burners, make sure that the burner rings, caps and grids have been fitted correctly.
In the ultrarapid burner, notch
A must be aligned with pin B.
Grid
C provided is intended for use with woks (Chinese pans).
Adapter
D comes only with open grids models and is intended for use with small sized vessels.
7.1 Ignition of the burners
The device is fit with electronic ignition. Simply press and simultaneously turn the knob counter-clockwise on the low point flame symbol, until the burner is ignited.
In models with safety valve, the knob has to be turned to the ignition symbol before it is pressed, and after ignition the knob has to be kept pressed for about 2 seconds to keep the flame lit and to activate the safety device.
The burner might go off when the knob is released. In this case repeat the aforesaid operation keeping the knob pressed for more than 2 seconds.
Should the burners go off accidentally in the models with valves, a safety device will trip after approximately 20 seconds to block the gas outlet even if the cock is open.
7.2 Practical advice for using the burners
For better burner performance and minimum gas consumption, flat bottomed, even pans must be used, with covers and proportional in size to the burners (see
paragraph “7.3 Diameter of the pans”).
To avoid overcooking or damage to the surface top while cooking, all pans or griddles must be positioned within the cooking hob perimeter and must be a minimum distance of 3-4 cm from the knobs.

Instructions for the user
8 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Never use a steam jet to clean the appliance.
Before any intervention, disconnect the power supply of the device.
8.1 Cleaning
Clean the cooking top regularly every time you use it, obviously after it has cooled.
8.1.1 Regular daily cleaning of the hob
In order to clean and preserve the surface, always use specific products only, which do not contain abrasive substances or chlorinebased acid substances.
How to use: pour the product on a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
8.1.2 Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will damage the surface.
Use normal non-abrasive products and remove spots or residuals with non-scratch sponges or, if need be, with wood or plastic utensils.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
42
Instructions for the user
8.2 Cleaning of cooking hob components
CAUTION: do not wash these components in a dishwasher.
In normal use of the hob, the stainless steel burner caps and panstands tend to be burnished by the high temperature. Clean these parts using very fine abrasive sponges or similar commercial products. Then use a specific paste polish to restore the steel’s shine. Your local authorised after-sales technician is able to supply professional products for appliance cleaning and care.
Grids, caps, flame cap crowns and burners can be removed for ease of cleaning. Wash them in warm water using a non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all tough spots. Before remounting, allow the components to fully dry out. In fact, humidity residues inside the burner holes might impair burner operation.
8.2.1 Ignition plugs and safety devices
For good functioning of the lighting ignition plugs and the safety devices, keep them very clean.
Check frequently and clean with a damp cloth when necessary.
8.2.2 The electric element
After use, to make sure that the surfaces are clean and long lasting, the electric element must be treated with specific cleaning products which are available on the market. This necessary operation prevents oxidisation (rust formation).
8.2.3 The cover
Clean the glass or steel cover, where mounted, with warm water. Never use abrasive sponges or detergents.
Never lower the cover when burners or electric elements are on or still hot.
Attention: the glass lid may break if overheated. Make sure that all the burners are switched off and let them cool down before lovering the lid.
