Please note:
•
Ceramic hobs become hot and remain hot during and immediately after use. Do not touch the hob until it has been
allowed to cool.
•
•
Keep children away from the appliance when in use.
Never put cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface when the hob is hot. These materials could melt and
cause damage to the hob.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Never use the hob top for storage.
Pan handles should never stand out beyond the edge of the worktop. This will ensure children cannot reach them.
Do not use pans with rough bases (e.g. cast iron) as these may scratch the hob surface.
Do not switch on the zones without cookware in place.
Do not lean over the hob when it is in use.
Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
Ensure the base of the saucepan is clean and dry before placing it on the hob.
After use, please ensure that all the zones have been switched off.
This hob (Class 3) has been designed for use only as a cooking appliance. Any other use (e.g. heating rooms) should be
considered incorrect and therefore dangerous.
•
The appliance is not intended to be operated by any means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.
Important
•
Do not use the hob if the glass surface is cracked or damaged to prevent risk of electric shock. Disconnect it from the
power supply.

Residual Heat Indicators
The hob is equipped with residual heat indicators to warn when any of the zones are still hot to the touch after cooking.
An H will flash in the relevant zone display after cooking until the zone is at a safe temperature to touch.
Please note:
You should avoid touching the zones when the hob is in use, or when an H is showing on the zone display.
In the event of a power cut, the residual heat indicators will illuminate after the power supply is restored. However, when there is
no power supply to the hob the residual heat indicators will not work, so extra care must be taken.

To switch the zone on
•
•
Touch the power key.
Select the zone required by touching the zone selection key until the required zone flashes a 0 in the zone display.
The order for zone selection is clockwise starting at the front right zone.
The zone display will flash for approximately ten seconds when the zone will be set at the power level selected or
switch off if no power level is set.
Please note:
•
To activate a zone, touch the zone selection key until the required zone display flashes. When no display is
flashing, the only control key that is active is the power on/off key.

•
To check on the power level selected, touch either the + or – key.
Please note:
•
•
To switch off the boost function, it is necessary to reset the zone by completely switching it off and on again.
As 9 is the maximum power level, there is no boost function available at power level 9.

Efficient Use of your Hob
Before using your hob for the first time, switch the zones on for a FEW SECONDS to burn off any grease left over from
the manufacturing process
The ceramic glass retains heat, so to make best use of the residual heat, switch off the zone five minutes prior to the end
of cooking.
To reduce the cooking time, the zone can be set to the maximum setting at the beginning of cooking, and then reduced
during cooking time.
The hob is equipped with zones of different sizes, designed to accommodate most shapes and sizes of pan. For best
results, only use pans with flat bottoms and choose an appropriate zone depending on the size of the pan. The most ef-
ficient use of the hob is shown below, where the pan and zone are correctly chosen.
Use pan lids where possible to minimise the energy usage of your appliance.

It is very important that the pans used on the hob are made of a suitable material and have the correct type of base. The
base should be flat and smooth, as any rough part on the pan base could scratch the ceramic hob top.
Choose pans which are between the sizes recommended in the table above, and with bases that are as non-reflective as pos-
sible, e.g. dull and dark.
Only pans recommended for use on ceramic hobs should be used.

Fitting the Hob
Unpacking the hob:
•
Take care not to lose or mishandle any parts.
Fitting position of the hob:
This appliance must be installed a minimum of 50mm from any back wall and a minimum of 190mm away from any
adjacent vertical surfaces, e.g. a tall cupboard end panel. This may be reduced to 100mm if the adjacent surface is resistant
to fire (tiles or steel, for example). These dimensions are shown in Fig.4.
If fitting a cooker hood above the hob:
If a cooker hood is to be installed above the hob, the height of the hood above the hob must be at least 600mm (650mm is
recommended) (Fig.5). If the instructions supplied with the hood dictate that the hood must be installed at a height greater
than 600mm, then that height is the minimum required.
Wall furniture requirements:
The minimum height of any cabinet immediately above the hob is 900mm. The minimum height of any adjacent units
(including light pelmets) is 400mm, unless they are manufactured from a material resistant to fire (steel, for example)
Notes:
•
•
Do not position this appliance above a refrigeration unit. The heat generated may cause the refrigeration unit to fail.
This appliance is designed to be installed into cabinet units capable of withstanding temperatures of 65°C or greater above
ambient temperature.
•
•
If there is no oven to be built in below the hob, an isolation shelf should be fitted to protect the user from high
temperatures. If the hob is to be installed above a working drawer, then a partition should be fitted to protect the contents
and user from the heat generated during use. This should be fitted 100mm below the hob.
Never place perishable foods in the cupboard below the appliance.

How to Install the Hob
How to install the hob:
Overall dimensions of the hob: Width: 580mm Depth: 510mm
Worktop cut-out dimensions:
Width: 560mm Depth: 490mm
1. Make the required hole in the worktop. Before doing this, you must check the instructions supplied with any cooker hood
to ensure that you will have the required clearance. The cut-out (Fig.4) shows a 60mm gap from the wall to the cut-out
edge. The distance from the hob, when fitted, to the back wall is 50mm. If a splashback/worktop upstand is to be fitted,
take this into account when cutting the hole. The minimum distance that the hob should be positioned away from the rear
wall or splashback is 50mm.
2. Position the hob seal, as shown in Fig.6, ensuring that the ends meet without overlapping. Do not use silicone type sealant.
3. Secure the hob to the worktop using the fixing brackets and screws supplied, as shown in Fig.7. Remove any excess sealant
after tightening the brackets. Do not over-tighten the fixing brackets.
