Overview

This document is an installation and operation manual for the Bellini 60 cm Built-In Induction Cooktop, model BDI604SG (Fineline: 5102874 for Australia/New Zealand).

The Bellini BDI604SG is a 60 cm built-in induction cooktop designed for domestic cooking and frying of food. It features four induction heating zones with varying power outputs and diameters, controlled by a touch-sensitive control panel.

Function Description:

The cooktop operates on the principle of induction heating, where electromagnetic fields directly heat the cookware, making the cooking zones themselves less hot compared to traditional electric hobs. It offers precise control over cooking temperatures and includes several safety and convenience features.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Dimensions (h x w x d): 60 x 590 x 520 mm
  • Net Weight: 10.2 Kg
  • Electrical Connection: 220-240V~ 50 or 60Hz
  • Rated Input Power: 7000W
  • Power Level: 9 settings
  • Max Timer Duration: 99 minutes
  • Heating Zones:
    • Zone 1: max. 1200/1500 W, 140mm diameter
    • Zone 2: max. 2300/2600 W, 220mm diameter
    • Zone 3: max. 1200/1500 W, 140mm diameter
    • Zone 4: max. 2300/2600 W, 220mm diameter

Usage Features:

The cooktop is controlled via a touch-sensitive panel with the following controls:

  • Heating zone selection controls: To select which cooking zone to adjust.
  • Timer control: Allows setting a minute minder or a timer to turn off specific cooking zones. The maximum timer setting is 99 minutes.
  • Power / Timer slider touch control: Used to increase or decrease power settings (from 0 to 9) or adjust the timer duration.
  • Boost control (B): Activates a booster function for a selected zone, allowing it to reach its maximum achievable power setting for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, if the original power level was 0, it defaults to level 9.
  • Child lock: Locks the control panel to prevent unintentional operation. When activated, "Lo" is displayed, and only the On/Off button can be used.
  • ON/OFF control: Turns the appliance on or off. When turned on, "0" is displayed above the power setting.
  • Residual heat indicator (H): An "H" lights up on the power display to indicate that a particular zone is very hot and should not be touched. This indicator may remain on for approximately 30 minutes, depending on the power setting selected.

Cooking Process:

  1. Power on the unit; the buzzer beeps once, and displays show "–" or "– –", indicating standby mode.
  2. Touch the ON/OFF control.
  3. Place a suitable pan on the desired cooking zone.
  4. Touch the heating zone selection control; an indicator next to the key will flash.
  5. Adjust the heat setting using the slide control.
  • If no heat setting is chosen within 1 minute, the hob automatically switches off.
  • The cooktop can detect if a pan is suitable; if not, the display will flash, indicating an unsuitable pan.

Timer Functionality:

The timer can be used in two ways:

  1. Minute Minder: Does not turn off any cooking zone when the set time is up.
  2. Cooking Zone Timer: Turns off one or more cooking zones after the set time. To set the timer:
  • Select the heating zone (for cooking zone timer) or ensure the cooktop is on (for minute minder).
  • Touch the timer control.
  • Use the slider control to set the desired time (up to 99 minutes).
  • The display shows the shortest timer duration if multiple zones are timed. A red dot next to the power level indicator shows which zone is selected for timing. To cancel the timer, select the zone, touch the timer control, and set the timer to "00" using the slider.

Cookware Suitability:

  • The appliance indicates if a pan is suitable by flashing the power indicator if not.
  • Recommended minimum pan bottom diameters: 120mm for 140mm zones, 180mm for 220mm zones.
  • Pans with a thick, flat bottom are best. Avoid pans with rough bases to prevent scratching the cooktop surface.
  • Suitable materials: Enameled stainless steel with a special induction-compatible base.
  • Unsuitable materials: Glass, ceramic, earthenware, aluminum, copper, and non-magnetic stainless steel.
  • Caution: Lift pans to move them to avoid scratching. Do not leave empty cooking utensils on the hob when switched on, as they may be detected and heated. Never heat an empty pan.

Maintenance Features:

  • General Cleaning:
    • Always disconnect the cooktop from the main power supply and ensure it is cool before cleaning.
    • Spills and splashes should be cleaned as quickly as possible to prevent hardening and sticking.
    • Use kitchen paper or a cloth for slight stains.
    • For more resistant stains, use a specific product for vitro-ceramic glass, following product instructions.
    • To avoid permanent damage, clean any residue with a cleaner formulated for ceramic glass cooktops.
    • Avoid heavy-duty scourers, nylon scourers, and harsh/abrasive cleaning agents as they can scratch the glass.
    • Never leave cleaning residue on the cooktop, as it can stain the glass.
  • Specific Cleaning for Boilovers, Melts, and Sugary Spills:
    • Remove immediately with a fish slice, palette knife, or razor blade scraper.
    • Scrape the soiling to a cool area of the cooktop.
    • Clean with a dishcloth or paper towel, then follow general cleaning steps.
    • Caution: Razor blades are sharp; use with extreme care and store safely.
  • Cleaning Touch Controls:
    • Switch off the cooktop.
    • Soak up spills.
    • Wipe the touch control area with a clean, damp sponge or cloth.
    • Wipe the area completely dry with a paper towel.
    • Switch the cooktop back on.
    • Note: Liquid on controls may cause beeping, automatic shutdown, or malfunction.

Installation Requirements:
