The hot plate sections are indicated by markings on
the ceramic top.
The dimensions of the heated surfaces are such that
they can accommodate commercially available pans.
Heat control knobs
The heat control knobs allow stepless regulation of
the heat output from 1 to 12.
They can be turned both to the right and to the left.
Touch control knob for the double-
circuit heating element
The second heating circuit is activated when the
corresponding heat control knob is turned on and the
touch control pressed.
The heating circuit is switched off when the control
knob is turned back to the zero-position.
Residual heat indicator
This warning lamp will light up when the surface of
the hot plate section reaches a temperature which
could cause burning.
This lamp will also remain lit after heated area has
been switched off as long as the residual heat at the
surface of the ceramic plate is enough to cause burns.
The lamp will only go out when there ceases to be any
danger (temperature under 60° C).
The residual heat should be used to completing the
cooking process or to keeping warm food.
