CAUTION:IF ANY CRACK IN SURFACE BECOMES VISIBLE, TURN OFF THE MAINS COOKER SWITCH.
Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium foil in contact with the hob surface.
The following boiling plates are located beneath the circular cooking areas:-
.The cooking areas change colour when heated (become red) indicating
which heating
element is turned on.The cooking area returns to its original colour when the heating
element is switched OFF and cools.
Rear left twin circuit plate
This is a dual purpose plate with two elements.The settings on the glass control panel will
show 1 - 4when the control is turned clockwise to indicate that the whole hotplate is turned
on and can be used for larger pan 4is the highest setting.With the control knob turned anti-
clockwise the settings on the glass control panel will show 1 - 4 to indicate that only the
inner part of the hotplate is switched on.This is an energy saving feature and is useful for
cooking with smaller pans or for slow simmering.The control will be OFF when the control
knob is turned to the Oposition.
Front left – Front right – Rear right –plates
When the control is turned from the 0position,the settings on the glass control panel will
show 1 - 6.
6is the highest setting,for fast cooking.To reduce the heat to cook more slowly or simmer,
turn the knob to a lower setting which will vary according to size and type of saucepan,the
amount and type of food,and whether or not the lid is fitted. Pans can be placed on the
unheated areas of the panel when cooking is finished and before serving food.
It is inadvisable at any time to leave a heating element switched on without a pan in
position as this wastes energy,and could make soil or rub-off from aluminium pans more
difficult to remove.To protect
elements against overheating, safety cut-outs have been
incorporated with each element.After several minutes with the control at setting 6(setting
4on twin circuit plate) the safety cut-out switches the element Offand On continuously,
thus preventing any adverse effects that may be caused by an excessive build-up of heat in
the cooking area.
Setting 1provides very low inputs of 3% to 10% for low simmering. (Excluding the twin
circuit plate).The control will be Off when the control knob is turned to the Oposition.
If hob should become cracked, never use until repaired.Always ensure that saucepan
handles are positioned safely.
