Description of the heating elements

The heating elements are circular in shape and turn red in colour only 20-30 seconds after they have been turned on.

Combined halogen and electrical heating elements. The cooktop utilises heating elements which are made up of two halogen lamps and a circular heating element. This combination provides ideal heat distribution across the entire surface of the cooking area without compro- mising the advantages of the halogen lamps. The main characteristic of halogen lamps is that they produce an instantaneous emission of a large quantity of light and heat, which means:

•a rapid source of heat similar to that provided by gas burners;

•an equally rapid elimination of the heat source. Halogen lamps are extremely easy to use and their operation is similar to that of other heating elements. Please refer to the table 1.
