Hotplates General Information Notes

Do Not

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. 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 placet centrally over the heated areas and have the same diameter as the heating area used.

We recommend not to use a utensil with a base diameter greater than 25cm (l0ins).

Pressure cookers or other large pans should be used on the front cooking areas.

Always ensure that saucepan handles are positioned safely.
