The Working of the Heating Zones

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

The HOT HOB indicator light:

This indicates that the temperature of the corresponding cooking zone is greater than 60°C, even when the heating element has been switched off but is still hot.

Choice of saucepans

It is essential that the saucepan's you use on the ceramic hob are suitable.

ALWAYS USE:

Good quality pans with smooth, flat, heavy bases.

saucepan's manufactured from aluminium (enamelled or machined) or stainless steel.

Correct size saucepan's. The base of the pan must cover the heating zone completely.

saucepan's 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.

Do Not

In order to keep your ceramic hob in good condition, follow these simple guidelines:

Do not cook directly on the hob surface without a cooking utensil, as this will result in damage to the surface of the hob.

Do not use the hob as a worktop surface as damage may occur to the smooth surface of the hob.

Do not drag or slide utensils on the hob surface, as this will cause scratches in the surface of the hob.

Do not allow a cooking utensil to come into contact with the hob surround.

Do not place anything between the base of the utensil and the ceramic hob, e.g.

do not use asbestos mats, aluminium or wok stand.

Do not leave any utensils, food or combustible items on the hob when it is not in use.

Do not place aluminium or plastic foil, or plastic containers on the hob.

Do not leave the hotplates or cooking areas switched On unless they are being used.

Do not leave heating zones uncovered when they are switched On. We recommend not to place large preserving pans or fish kettles across two heating areas.

Do not leave utensils partly covering the heated areas. Always ensure that they are placed centrally over the heated areas and have the same diameter as the heating area used.
