General safety
! 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.
• 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 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 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.
• 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.
• Do not look at the halogen lamps in the cooking
zones for long if they are present.
• 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
means of an external timer or separate remote-
control system.
Disposal
• 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.
