4. USE OF HOB

4.1 Hob controls

Heating Zones

The heating zones are controlled by a 6 

position knob.

The heating zones  is operated by turning 

the control knob to the required setting. 

Near each control knob is a symbol which 

indicates the heater that is controlled by 

that knob. The on/off light on the control 

panel will show if any of the heating 

zones are in use.

Important:

 The knob rotation 

direction may differ according to the 

product specification.

Dual and Oval Heaters (if available)

Dual and oval heaters have two heating 

zones. To activate the outer zone of a dual/

oval heater, turn the knob to   position. 

Both outer zones will switch on.

To deactivate the outer zone of a dual/oval 

heater, turn the knob to the ‘Off’ position. 

Both outer zones will switch off.

Residual Heat Indicator (if available)

After using the hob there will be heat 

stored in the vitroceramic glass called 

residual heat. If the residual heat level is 

greater than +60°C, the residual heat 

indicator will be active for the heating zone 

which is above this temperature.

If the power supply to the hob is 

disconnected while the residual heat 

indicator is on, the warning light will flash 

when the power is reconnected. The 

display will flash until the residual heat has 

decreased or until one of the heating zones 

is activated.

Hints and Tips

Important:

 When heating zones are 

operated in higher heat settings, the 

zones may be seen switching 

on and off. This is due to a safety device 

which prevents the glass from overheating. 

This is normal at high temperatures, 

causing no damage to the hob and little 

delay in cooking times.

WARNING:

Never operate the hob without

pans on the heating  zone.

Use only flat saucepans with a

sufficiently thick base.

Make sure the bottom of the pan is dry

before placing it on the hob.

While the heating  zone is in operation,

it is important to ensure that the pan is

centred correctly above the zone.

In order to conserve energy, never use

a pan with a different diameter to the

heating zone being used.

Circular Saucepan 

Base

Small Saucepan 

Diameter

Saucepan base that 

has not settled

Do not use pans with rough bottoms

since these can scratch the glass

ceramic surface.

If possible, always place lids on the

pans.

The temperature of accessible parts

may become high while the hob is

operating. Keep children and animals
