Using the hob
Before first use
IMPORTANT: You should clean the hob surface and solid
plates (see “Cleaning and maintenance” section).
o
You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes
at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new
smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on
the heating elements during transit.
o
When doing this burn off process, an appropriately sized
saucepan containing cold water should be placed on the zone in
question.
o
Do not burn off more than one zone at once.
Control knobs
o
All operations are performed by means of the 2 control knobs
that can be found at the front of the hob top.
o
The control knobs can be turned either clockwise or anti-
clockwise to select a heating level. The numbers around the
outside of each control knob indicates the power level that you
have set the zone to.
o
A marking to the bottom left of each control knob, indicates
which zone that it controls.
Switching on a zone and setting a power level
o
Turn the control knob of the zone that you wish to cook on,
clockwise or anticlockwise until it reaches the power level that
you desire.
o
Each cooking zone can be adjusted between 1 and 6, one being
the coolest zone setting and six being the hottest zone setting.
o
When you have finished cooking, make sure that you turn the
control knob anti-clockwise, to the 0 position.
