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.

This appliance conforms to the following European Economic Community directives:

-2006/95/EEC dated 12/12/06 (Low Voltage) and subsequent amendments;

-2004/108/EEC dated 15/12/04 (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;

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.

￿We advise against the installation of an induction hob above an under-the-counter refrigerator (heat) or above a washing machine (vibrations). In fact, there would be insufficient space for the ventilation of electronic components.

• 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 provided in this booklet. Do not use the hob as a worktop or chopping board.

• 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 GB 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.

•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.

•Do not let children play with the appliance.

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.
