Use of Ceramic Griddle
Figure 2
HOW TO USE THE COOKER
TOP
The griddle reaches the working
temperature very quickly and can grill
any food, without fat and oil, directly
on the radiant zone's glass-ceramic
surface.
Operation of the radiant zone is
controlled by a continuous
12-position power regulator.
The signal lamp lights up when the
griddle is ON.
USING THE GRIDDLE FOR
THE FIRST TIME
ꢀ Remove the adhesive film which
protects some parts.
ꢀ Remove any residual glue carefully,
without using abrasive substances,
to avoid scratching the surfaces.
ꢀ Clean the cooking surface carefully.
ꢀ Switch the griddle on by turning
the power setting knob to the
maximum position (11-12) for
about 15 minutes to remove
residual working greases.
5
USE OF THE GRIDDLE
ꢀ Before cooking make sure that the
radiant zone is clean.
Caution!
The griddle becomes very hot
during use and remains very hot
even after it is switched off.
Keep children well out of reach.
ꢀ Switch the griddle on by turning
the knob to position 12.
ꢀ Preheat until the cooking surface
becomes red.
ADVICE FOR THE SAFE
ꢀ Then turn the knob to the position
required. The numbers from 1 to
12 indicate the working positions
with temperature increasing as the
number increases.
USE OF CERAMIC GRIDDLE
ꢀ Do not lean on the cooking zones
when they are switched on.
ꢀ Do not put aluminium foil or plastic
objects on the cooking zones when
they are hot.
ꢀ Place the food on the radiant zone
and check the cooking by eye.
ꢀ Turn off the griddle by turning the
knob to position “0”.
ꢀ Do not leave objects of any type on
the surfaces made of ceramic, glass
or similar fragile material.
ꢀ As the radiant zone remains hot for
some time after the hob is
switched off, turn the zone off a
few minutes before the end of
cooking.
ꢀ Remember that the cooking zone
remain hot for some time after it is
switched off (about 30 min.).
ꢀ Follow the cleaning instructions
carefully.
The residual heat will complete the
cooking.
ꢀ If you note a crack in the cooktop,
switch the appliance off immediately
and call the After-Sales Service.
ꢀ Do not use the griddle for
more than 30 minutes.
TIPS FOR GRILLING:
ꢀ Preheat the radiant zone sufficiently
to obtain quick and uniform
cooking.
ꢀ Do not pour water on the cooking
surface when it is switched on or
still hot.
ꢀ If cooking very fatty foods, leave the
griddle switched on for a few
minutes after cooking is finished, to
burn off the fatty residues.
Do not scratch the cooktop with
cutting or sharp objects.
Do not use the cooktop as a
work surface.

Cleaning and Maintenance
CLEANING THE CERAMIC
GRIDDLE
Make sure that the cooktop is
switched off before cleaning it.
GENERAL TIPS
ꢀ Before you begin cleaning, you
must ensure that the hob is
switched off.
ꢀ It is advisable to clean when the
appliance is cold, especially when
cleaning the enamelled parts.
ꢀ Remove any encrustation.
ꢀ Remove dust with a damp cloth.
ꢀ Avoid leaving alcaline or acidic
substances (lemon juice, vinegar,
etc.) on the surfaces.
ꢀ Avoid using cleaning products with
a chlorine or acidic base.
ꢀ Detergents can be used, but they
must not be abrasive or corrosive.
ꢀ Any remaining detergent must be
completely removed with a damp
cloth.
ꢀ Do not use a steam cleaner because
the moisture can get into the
appliance and make it unsafe.
ꢀ Do not put any objects on the
cooktop which can melt with heat,
such as plastic objects, aluminium
foil, sugar or sugar products.
ꢀ If any object melts on the cooktop,
remove it immediately (while the
cooktop is still hot) using a speaal
scraper, to prevent any irreversible
damage to the glass ceramic
surface.
ENAMELLED PARTS
ꢀ All the enamelled parts must be
cleaned with a sponge and soapy
water only or other non-abrasive
products.
ꢀ Do not use knives or sharp objects
which could damage the cooktop
surface.
ꢀ Dry preferably with a chamois
leather.
If acid substances such as lemon
juice, tomato conserve, vinegar etc.
are left on the enamel for a long
time they will etch it, making it
opaque.
ꢀ Do not use abrasive sponges or
pads which could irreversibly
damage the glass ceramic surface.
STAINLESS STEEL PARTS
ꢀ Clean with special products which
are available on the market.
ꢀ Dry preferably with chamois leather.
.
CONTROL KNOB
ꢀ The control knob may be removed
for cleaning but care should be
taken not to damage the seal.
CAUTION: Any abrasive substan-
ces and non-neutral detergents
are absolutely not to be used as
these can cause permanent dama-
ge to these elements.

Installation Instruction
Figure 3
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
FOR THE INSTALLER
Before installing the cooktop, remove
the protective film.
This cooktop can be built into a
working surface 30 to 40 mm thick
and 600 mm deep.
In order to install the ceramic griddle
into the kitchen fixture, a hole with
the dimensions shown in fig. 3 has
to be made, keeping in considera-
tion the following:
ꢀ within the fixture, between the
bottom side of the ceramic griddle
and the upper surface of any
other appliance or internal shelf
there must be a clearance of at
least 30 mm;
ꢀ the ceramic griddle must be kept
no less than 300 mm away from
any side wall;
Figure 4
ꢀ the rear wall must be at least 50
mm from the ceramic griddle and
must withstand a temperature of
150°C.
ꢀ there must be a distance of at least
650 mm between the hob and
any wall cupboard or extractor
hood positioned immediately
above (see fig. 4)
ꢀ the coatings of the walls of the
unit or appliances near the
cooktop must be heat resistant (“X”
protection against heating in
compliance with standards EN
60335-2-6).
ꢀ Do not instal the appliance near
inflammable materials (eg.
curtains).

put tabs “A” into the mountings,
only tighten screws “B” a few turns
(fig. 6).
Make sure that the tabs are mounted
correctly as shown in the figures.
Turn the tabs so that the cooktop
can be put into the hole.

minal marked E (Earth) or

2) The wire which is coloured blue must
be connected to the terminal marked
N (Neutral), or coloured Black.
3) The wire which is coloured brown

DETAILS
ꢀ Connection to the electric power sup-
ply must be carried out by a qualified
technician and following the appro-
priate safety regulations;
ꢀ The power supply cord must not
touch against any hot surfaces and
must be placed so that its tempera-
ture does not exceed 75°C at any
point along its length.
ꢀ Before carrying out the connection to
the power supply, the voltage rating
of the appliance (stamped on the
appliance identification plate) must
be checked for correspondence to
the available mains supply voltage,
and the mains electric wiring should
be capable of handling the appli-
ance’s power rating (also indicated
on the identification plate);
ꢀ After having installed the appliance,
the power switch or power plug
must always be in a accessible posi-
tion.
N.B. For connections to the mains
power supply, never use adaptors,
reductions or multiple power
points as these may overheat and
catch fire.
ꢀ If the hob is supplied without plug, fit
a standard plug which is suitable for
the power absorbed by the appliance
and in conformity with the local rules
in force.
In the event that installation should
require modifications to the mains sup-
ply wiring system, it is recommended
that a qualified technician be called to
carry out substitution.
The technician will also have to verify
that the cross-section of the electric
cables on the power point match the
appliance’s power rating.
ꢀ The plug must be put into a socket
connected to the earth system in
compliance with safety rules.
ꢀ This appliance can be connected
directly to the mains, using fixed
wiring via
a
DOUBLE POLE
SWITCHED FUSED SPUR OUTLET (13
amps. fuse).
If the hob surface is cracked dis-
connect the appliance from the
mains.
ꢀ As the colours of the wires in the
mains lead for the appliance, may not
correspond with the coloured mark-
ings identifying the terminals in your
spur box, proceed as follows:

Figure 7
Before carrying out any work on
the electrical section of the appli-
ance, it must be disconnected
from the mains.
REPAIRS
