COOKING HINTS:

■To reduce the cooking time, you can turn the control knob to the max when you switch the plate on. After a short time you can set the control knob to the position required for cooking.

■You should only use pots and pans with flat bases (pans with the test mark for glass-ceramic hobs are available from specialist shops). The diameter of the pan should match that of the cooking plate (or be slightly bigger) to make the most of the energy.

■Since the cooking surface will stays hot for a certain time after the plate has been switched off, you can switch it off 5 or 10 minutes before the end of the cooking. The residual heat of the hob will complete the cooking.

■To save electricity, use pan lids whenever possible.

■Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop.

HINTS FOR SAFE USE OF THE HOBS

■Before switching on, check which knob controls the required hob. You are advised to place the saucepan on the hob before switching on and to take it off after switching off.

■Use saucepans with an even flat bottom (be careful of cast iron saucepans). Uneven bottoms can scratch the pyroceram surface. Check that the bottom is clean and dry.

■Check that the saucepan handle does not protrude from the top to avoid knock- ing it over. This precaution also makes it more difficult for children to reach the saucepan.

■Do not use the top if the surface is broken or damaged.

■Do not bend over the hobs when they are on.

■Do not leave aluminium foil, greaseproof paper etc. or plastic on the hob when it is hot.

■Remember that the hobs stay hot for quite a long time (approx. 30 min.) after they have been switched off.

■Scrupulously follow the cleaning instructions.

■Do not drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass ceramic cooktop.

■If you note a crack in the cooktop, switch the appliance off immediately and call the After-Sales Service.

■Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop, but in special pans or containers.
