Using the glass ceramic hob

GB

￿ The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of

grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we

 

recommend you remove these with a special non-

 

 

abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours

 

of use there may be a smell of rubber which will

 

disappear very quickly.

 

Switching the cooking zones on and off

 

To switch on a cooking zone, turn the corresponding

 

knob in a clockwise direction.

 

To switch it off again, turn the knob in an

 

anticlockwise direction until it is in the "0" position.

 

If the ACTIVE HOTPLATE ON indicator light is lit,

 

this shows that at least one hotplate on the hob is

 

switched on.

 

Cooking zones

The hobs have been provided with radiant electric heaters. These heaters are incorporated under the surface of the hob as zones which redden while they

 

 

are in use.

Practical advice on using the hob

Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.

Always use pans with a diameter that is large enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all the heat produced.

Always make sure that the base of the pan is completely clean and dry: this ensures that the pans adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and that both the pans and the hob last for a longer period of time.

Avoid using the same cookware that is used on gas burners: the heat concentration on gas burners may have warped the base of the pan, causing it not to adhere to the surface correctly.

Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone to become damaged.
