THE RADIANT HOB

USING THE HOB

￿To operate the hotplates, turn the control knobs clockwise from the OFF position (0) to the required setting.

￿The highest number represents the hottest setting and the lowest number represents the coolest setting. Choose a setting appropriate to the quantity and type of food to be cooked.

RECOMMENDED SAUCEPANS

For speed and economy only good quality saucepans with flat bases and close fitting lids are recommended.

The saucepan base should cover the hotplate as much as possible. A base diameter of up to 225mm (9") may be used on a 180mm (7") hotplate.

Pressure cookers, preserving pans etc., should comply with the recommendations given above. Traditional round bottomed Woks must not be used even with a stand. Woks with flat-bottomed bases are available and do comply with the above recommendations.

HINTS AND TIPS

￿Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the hob to help reduce scratches and maintain the efficiency of the hotplates.

￿Avoid placing fish kettles or large preserving pans across two hotplates as this may cause damage.

￿Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan manufacturer, particularly those relating to recommended heat settings.

￿Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not be used.
