The hob

WARNING!

Do not use the appliance if the ceramic glass is damaged. If a fault or crack becomes visible, disconnect the appliance immediately from the electricity supply and contact your local service force centre.

Using the hob

Turn the hob control knob 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

Only saucepans with flat bases and close fitting lids are recommended. The saucepan base should be approximately the same size as the cooking area.

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

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.

IMPORTANT!

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 when using the hob

Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the hob. 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.
