THE CERAMIC HOB

CAUTION: DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE IF THE CERAMIC GLASS IS DAMAGED. IF A FAULT OR CRACK BECOMES VISIBLE DURING COOKING, DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE IMMEDIATELY FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AND CONTACT YOUR LOCAL SERVICE FORCE CENTRE.

USING THE HOB

￿To operate the hotplates, turn the control knobs in either direction to vary the heat 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 be approximately the same size as the cooking area, a base diameter of up to 225mm (9”) may be used on a 180mm (7”) heated area.

Ensure that new saucepans are well scrubbed to remove edges and take off any deposits left from manufacture.

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.

NOTE:

Occasionally the heated areas may be seen to switch ON and OFF when higher heat settings are being used. This is due to a safety device which prevents the glass from overheating. Some switching ON and OFF when cooking at high temperatures, e.g. deep fat frying is quite normal, causes no damage to the hob and little delay in cooking times.

Excessive switching may however be caused by the use of an unsuitable saucepan or a saucepan which is smaller than the heated area. If excessive switching occurs, discontinue use of the saucepan.

HINTS AND TIPS

￿Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the heated areas. This will reduce the risk of scratches and metal marks from saucepans with aluminium bases. Metal marks can be easily cleaned off providing they are not allowed to burn on.

￿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.

￿To prolong the life of the hotplates:-

￿DO NOT place foil and plastic vessels on the hot surface of the ceramic hob and DO NOT use the surface for storage purposes.
