The Working of the Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The zones

Heating Zones heat up and cool down quicker, providing greater controllability for sensitive foods. Each heating zone is equipped with a thermal limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the ceramic glass from overheating. After several minutes at full power without a pan on the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the heating elements off and on automatically to avoid any damage to the ceramic glass.

Choice of

It is essential that the saucepans you use on the ceramic hob are suitable.

Saucepans

 

ALWAYS USE:

Good quality pans with smooth, flat, heavy bases.

Saucepans manufactured from aluminium (enamelled or machined) or stainless steel.

Correct size saucepans. The base of the pan must cover the heating zone completely.

Saucepans with lids which are well fitting to reduce cooking time and energy use.

NEVER USE:

Pans with thin, distorted or uneven bases as these will extend cooking times, waste electricity and cause damaging, local hotspots

on the glass surface.

Pans with ridged or recessed bases.

Pans with damaged or rough bases which could scratch the glass surface.

Glass or glass ceramic utensils.
