30 3. ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY 3.1 Our environmental responsibility Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at the end of its useful life, must be collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, the user must consign the product that has reached the end of its working life to the appropriate selective collection centres for electrical and electronic refuse, or deliver it back to the retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis. Adequate differentiated collection for the subsequent forwarding of the decommissioned product to recycling, processing and ecologically compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the environment and on health, and promotes recycling of the appliance's constituent materials. The illicit disposal of the product by the user results in the application of administrative sanctions. The product does not contain substances in quantities sufficient to be considered hazardous to health and the environment, in accordance with current European directives. 3.2 Your environmental responsibility Our product's packaging is made of non-polluting materials, therefore compatible with the environment and recyclable. Please help by disposing of the packaging correctly. You can obtain the addresses of collection, recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local organisations. Do not discard the packaging or any part of it, or leave it unattended. It can constitute a suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags. Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly. Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for the collection of household appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal enables intelligent recovery of valuable materials. Before disposing of your appliance it is important to remove doors and leave shelves in the same position as for use, to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside during play. It is also necessary to cut the connecting cable to the power supply, removing it along with the plug.

31 4. DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS 4.1 Control zone All the hob controls are grouped together at the centre front. CONTROL ZONE KNOB DESCRIPTION To light the flame, press the knob and, at the same time, turn it anticlockwise to the maximum flame symbol . To adjust the flame, turn the knob to the zone between the maximum and minimum settings. To turn off the burner, turn the knob to the zero position to the symbol.

32 5. USING THE HOB Make sure that the burners, flame-spreader crowns and racks are fitted correctly. The notches A of the flame-spreader crowns must be inserted into the housings B of the burner. The igniter and thermocouple on the hob should fit into the 2 holes on the burner. 5.1 Positioning the racks The racks are provided unassembled on the hob. To position each rack correctly on its burner, follow the instructions below: Each rack must be positioned on the corresponding burner in order to guarantee proper operation. Be very careful to match the different central diameters of the racks to the flame-spreader crowns.

33 All the racks have two reference notches (A). To position the racks correctly, align the reference notches (A) with the cavities (B) on the hob. After positioning, check that the rack feet are all resting on the same level. Make sure that the racks are simply centred on their respective burners, without forcing the burners to be raised or tilted. If they are, repeat the positioning procedure. INCORRECT INCORRECT CORRECT

34 5.2 Lighting the burners using a safety device The appliance is equipped with electronic ignition. Simply press the knob and simultaneously turn it anticlockwise to the minimum flame symbol , until it lights. Hold down the knob for about 2 seconds to keep the flame lit and to activate the safety device. The burner may go out when the knob is released. If this happens, repeat the procedure, holding the knob down for longer. If the burners should go out accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. 5.3 Practical tips for using the burners For better burner performance and minimum gas consumption, pans with flat, even bases and with lids should be used, and their size should be in proportion to the burner (see “5.4 Pan diameters”). During cooking, in order to avoid burns or damage to the hob top, all pans or griddles must be positioned inside the outer edge of the hob and at a minimum distance of 5-7 cm must be maintained from the knobs. If the burner flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.

36 6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Before performing any operations requiring access to powered parts, disconnect the appliance from the power supply. 6.1 Cleaning the hob To keep the hob in good condition it should be cleaned regularly after use. Let it cool first. 6.1.1 Ordinary daily cleaning To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. How to use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather. 6.1.2 Food stains or residues Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will damage the surface. Use ordinary non-abrasive products for steel, together with anti- scratch sponges and wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.

37 6.2 Cleaning the components 6.2.1 Knobs The knobs should be cleaned with a soft cloth dampened with lukewarm water, then dried carefully. For easier cleaning they can be removed by pulling them upwards. Do not use aggressive products containing alcohol or products for cleaning steel and glass when cleaning the knobs, as these products could cause permanent damage. 6.2.2 Racks Remove the racks and clean them with lukewarm water and non- abrasive detergent, making sure to remove any encrustations. Replace them on the cooking hob. These components must not be washed in the dishwasher. 6.2.3 Flame-spreader crowns The flame-spreader crowns are removable. Wash them with lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent, making sure to remove any encrustations. To remove burned on food residue, use Puliforno with a scourer sponge. For less stubborn residue and for polishing, use stainless steel cream cleaner Crema Inox with a microfiber cloth. After cleaning ensure they are perfectly dry and reposition them correctly. 6.2.4 Igniters and thermocouples For correct operation the igniters and thermocouples must always be perfectly clean. Check them frequently and clean them with a damp cloth if necessary. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.

38 7. POSITIONING IN THE COUNTER TOP 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). 7.1 Fixing to the supporting 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 edge. This appliance can be mounted against walls higher than the work surface on condition that a distance of "X" be kept between the appliance and the wall as shown in the figure so as to avoid damage from overheating. Make sure that there is a minimum distance of 750 mm between the hob and any shelf that may be installed directly above it. Do not use aggressive products containing alcohol or products for cleaning steel and glass when cleaning the knobs, as these products could cause permanent damage. If installing over an empty kitchen unit with doors, a separation panel must be placed under the hob. Keep a minimum distance of 10 mm between the bottom of the appliance and the surface of the panel, which must be easily extractable to allow sufficient access for any technical assistance.

39 Carefully position the supplied insulating seal on the outer perimeter of the hole made in the counter top as shown in the figures below, trying to make it stick on the entire surface by applying light pressure on it with your hands. Depending on the hob model being installed refer to the dimensions in the figure, bearing in mind that for both models the long front side must brush against the hole. Fix the hob to the unit using the appropriate brackets A supplied. Carefully trim the surplus away from edge B beyond the seal. The dimensions given in the following drawing refer from the hole to the inside of the seal. The figure to the side shows the exact holes to be used to correctly attach the hob to the work surface with brackets. IMPORTANT: If installing the hob over an oven, ensure that the latter is equipped with a cooling fan.

40 8. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Make sure that the voltage and capacity of the power supply line conform to the data shown on the plate located under the casing. Do not remove this plate for any reason. The plug at the end of the supply cable and the wall socket must be of the same type and must conform to the applicable legislation on electrical installations. Make sure that the supply line is suitably earthed. Pass the power supply cable through the back of the unit, taking care that it does not touch the bottom casing of the hob or the oven (if any) installed underneath it. Fit the power supply line with an omnipolar circuit breaker with a contact opening gap equal to or greater than 3 mm in an easily accessible position close to the appliance. Avoid use of adapters and shunts. If the power cable is replaced, the cross- section of wires in the new cable must be no less than 0.75 mm2 (3 x 0.75 cable), remembering that the end for connection to the appliance must have an earth wire (yellow/green) which is at least 20 mm longer. Only use a H05V2V2-F or similar cable resistant to the maximum temperature of 90°C. Its replacement must be carried out be a specialised technician who must carry out the connection to the power grid following the diagram below. L = brown N = blue = yellow/green The power supply cable must be replaced by an authorised service centre to prevent any risks. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or things caused by non-observance of the above prescriptions or by interference with any part of the appliance.

41 9. GAS CONNECTION If the appliance is installed on an oven, you must avoid running the gas tube round the back of the oven in order to avoid overheating. Connection to the gas supply network can be made using a rigid copper hose or a flexible steel hose with a continuous wall and in compliance with the guidelines established by the applicable standard. To facilitate the connection, connector A on the back of the appliance can be orientated laterally; loosen hexagonal nut B, twist connector A into the desired position then retighten hexagonal nut B (it is sealed with a rubber gasket). Once the operation is complete, check the hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution; never use a flame. The hob is preset for natural gas G20 (2H) at a pressure of 20 mbar. To set it up for supply using other types of gas, see Chapter “10. ADAPTATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS”. The gas inlet connection is threaded ½” for external gas (ISO 228-1). Connection with a rigid copper hose: The connection to the gas supply network must be made in such a way that it does not cause stresses of any type on the appliance. The connection can be made using the adapter unit D with double cone, always inserting gasket C (provided) in between. Connection with a flexible steel hose: use only continuous wall stainless steel hoses that comply with the applicable standards, making sure to always insert gasket C (provided) between connector A and flexible hose B. Installation with flexible hose must be carried out so that the length of the piping does not exceed 2 metres when fully extended; make sure that the hoses do not come into contact with moving parts and that they are not crushed in any way.

42 9.1 Connection to liquid gas Use a pressure regulator and make the connection on the gas cylinder following the guidelines set out in the regulations in force. Make sure that the supply pressure complies with the values indicated in the paragraph “10.3 Burner and nozzle characteristics tables”. 9.2 Room ventilation The room containing the appliance should have an air supply in accordance with the standards in force. The room where the appliance is installed must have enough air flow needed for the regular combustion of gas and the necessary air change in the room itself. The air vents, protected by grills, must be the right size to comply with current regulations and positioned so that no part of them is obstructed, not even partially. The room must be kept adequately ventilated in order to eliminate the heat and humidity produced by cooking: in particular, after prolonged use, you are recommended to open a window or to increase the speed of any fans. 9.3 Extraction of the combustion products The combustion products may be extracted by means of hoods connected to a natural draught chimney whose efficiency is certain or via forced extraction. An efficient extraction system requires precision planning by a specialist qualified in this area and must comply with the positions and distances indicated by the regulations. When the job is complete, the installer must issue a certificate of conformity.

43 10. ADAPTATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS Before carrying out the following operations, disconnect the appliance from the power supply. The hob is preset for natural gas G20 (2H) at a pressure of 20 mbar. If other types of gas are to be used, the nozzles must be replaced and the primary air must be adjusted. In order to replace the nozzles and adjust the burners, the hob top must be removed as described below. 10.1 Removing the hob top Remove all the burner components, following the numerical sequence in the figures below: • Take out all the knobs (1) by pulling them upwards; • Remove the racks (2) by lifting them upwards; • Lift all the burner components off the hob (3 - 4); • Unscrew the screws (5) that secure the burner supports; • Having removed all the components described above, lift the hob top upwards to access the burners and gas taps. 10.2 Replacement of the cooking hob nozzles Unscrew screw C and push air regulator D as far as it will go. Using a 7-mm wrench, remove nozzle E and replace it with the appropriate nozzle, following the instructions in the tables for the type of gas to be used. The nozzle tightening torque must be no more than 3 Nm. Adjust the air by sliding regulator D until distance “X” is reached, as indicated in the table in paragraph “10.4 Primary air adjustment”. Lock regulator D by tightening screw C.

If having adjusted the air the flame appears as illustrated in the figure: the following modifications must be made: A: the flame is "noisy", unstable or "detaches" from the burner: the primary air is too high. B: The flame is opaque, dull or has yellow tips and "wraps around" the burner: the primary air is too low. C: The flame is blue, clear and stable, does not "detach" or "wrap around" the burner: the air is adjusted correctly. 10.5 Adjusting the minimum for natural gas Reposition the components on the burner and slide the knobs onto the tap rods. Light the burner and set it to the minimum position . Extract the knob again and turn the adjustment screw inside or next to the tap rod (depending on the model) until the correct minimum flame is achieved. Refit the knob and verify that the burner flame is stable (when turning the knob rapidly from the maximum to the minimum position the flame must not go out).

46 10.6 Adjusting the minimum setting for LPG To adjust the minimum setting with LPG, you must tighten the screw inside or next to the tap rod (depending on the model) fully in a clockwise direction. The diameters of the by-passes for the individual burners are given in the table “10.3 Burner and nozzle characteristics tables”. After adjustment with a gas other than the preset one, replace the label on the casing of the appliance with the label corresponding to the new gas. The label is inserted inside the pack together with the nozzles. 10.7 Arrangement of the burners on the hob Type of burner 1 Auxiliary 2.
