HOTPLATES
NORMAL HOTPLATES
To switch on the normal hotplate, turn
the knob (Fig. 3.6) onto the desired posi-
tion; the numbers 1 to 6 indicate the
working positions with the increase of
temperature according to the number.
Once boiling point has been reached,
reduce the input according to the heat-
ing intensity desired, keeping in mind
that the plate will continue to heat for 5
minutes after having been turned off.
RAPID HOTPLATES (red dot)
The control knob of the rapid hotplates
is similar to that of a normal plate with
6 working positions (Fig. 3.6).
The features of this plate, which is
equipped with a heat limiter, allow:
– reaching the temperature rapidly
– maximum exploitation of the input with
flat bottom pots
– the limitation of input in the case of
unsuitable pots.
CORRECT USE OF THE
ELECTRICAL PLATES
In using the hotplates you must:
– avoid idle operation (without pots)
– do your best not to pour liquids on the
plates when they are hot
– only use flat bottom pots
– always use pots that completely cover
the surface of the plate.
A lamp signals that the hotplates are
operating.
