Using the glass ceramic hob

! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of

grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we

recommend you remove these with a special non-

abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours

of use there may be a smell of rubber which will

disappear very quickly.

Switching the cooking zones on and off

To switch on a cooking zone, turn the corresponding

knob in a clockwise direction.

To switch it off again, turn the knob in an anticlockwise

direction until it is in the “0” position.

If the ELECTRIC HOTPLATE ON indicator light is lit, this

shows that at least one hotplate on the hob is switched

on.

Cooking zones

The hob is equipped with electric radiant heating

elements. When they are in use the following items on

the hob become red.

A. The cooking zone with radiant

heating elements.

B. The cooking zone with a hilite

extensible heating element.

C.The cooking zone with a hilite

heating element

D. The residual heat 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.

Cooking zones with hilite heating elements

These emit heat via radiation from the hilite

elementsthey contain. They have similar properties to

gas burners: they are easy to control and reach set

temperatures quickly, allowing you to actually see the

power they are providing.

Description of the heating elements

The circular radiant/hilite heating elements become red

10 - 20 seconds after they have been switched on.

The circular radiant/hilite heating elements guarantee

even heat distribution in addition to the usual

advantages that radiant/hilite heating elements bring.

Hilite/radiant elements emit high levels of heat and light

as soon as they are switched on, offering the following

practical advantages:

· rapid heating (in relation to a gas burner)

· rapid cooling

· even temperature across the whole surface (due to

the circular heating elements)

Practical advice on using the hob

• Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that they

adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.

• Always use pans with a diameter that is large

enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all

the heat produced.

• Always make sure that the base of the pan is

completely clean and dry: this ensures that the pans

adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and that both

the pans and the hob last for a longer period of time.

• Avoid using the same cookware that is used on gas

burners: the heat concentration on gas burners may

have warped the base of the pan, causing it not to

adhere to the surface correctly.

• Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a

pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone to

become damaged.
