Electric hob

Before using the hob for the first time, heat it up for 5 minutes, 

set to full power, with no pans placed on it. At this point it is 

normal to notice smoke and odours, but these will disappear 

over time. Do not operate the hobs without placing pans on top, 

except during this initial heating phase.
When you begin cooking, we recommend turning the control 

knob up to the maximum setting and then, depending on the 

quantity and quality of the foods being cooked, turn down the 

heat to a medium setting.
Taking advantage of the thermal inertia of the hob, the hob can 

be switched off shortly before you finish cooking. This will save 

energy as food will continue to cook using the heat retained in 

it.
Use perfectly flat, thick bottom pans of a similar size to the 

hotplate, never smaller.
Do not spill liquid on the hob's surface, or use wet pans on it.
If prolonged use has worn away the surface of the electric 

hobs, sprinkle them with a few drops of oil or other 

maintenance products that are widely available.

Power control switch

The electric hob is controlled by a switch, which can be used to 

choose the power required for the food you are cooking.

To switch on the hob: 

Bearing in mind the type of cooking and the quantity of food, 

using the table below as a guide, turn the control knob to the 

left, selecting the setting for the dish you want to cook. The 

operating indicator will light up.
To switch off the hob: 

Turn the control knob to the 0 setting. The operating indicator 

will go out.

Suggestions

These suggested settings are intended as a guide only.The 

power must be increased for:

large quantities of liquid

large quantities of food

cooking using pans without lids

Setting 1 and 2

heating

Setting 3 and 4
