User Manual:
Operating your Cooktop
BEFORE FIRST USE
IMPORTANT!
You should clean the ceramic cooktop surface (refer to the “Cleaning and Maintenance”
section).
→
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.
→
Do not burn off more than one zone at once.
→
You must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on each cooking zone as you
burn it off.
TOUCH CONTROLS
→
All operations are performed by means of the touch controls that can be found on the
lower right hand side of the cooktop (when standing in front).
SWITCHING ON A COOKING ZONE AND SETTING A POWER LEVEL
→
After selecting your cooking zone by touching the zone indicator symbol (shown below),
you then use the +/- buttons to increase or decrease your desired heating level (indicated
by the LED display below).
IMPORTANT!
When you have finished cooking, make sure that you set the zone to OFF, by using the “-“
button and setting the zone to (“0”).
RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATORS
→
After a zone is switched off, the corresponding cooking zone will show an “H” in the
control panel. This means that the temperature of the zone is over 50°C and is therefore
still high enough to cause injury.
→
The residual heat indicator will go out after the temperature of the zone falls below 50°C.
IMPORTANT!
The residual heat indicator will disappear if the mains supply to the product is cut.
WARNING!
It is still possible to burn yourself on a cooktop zone, even when the residual heat
indicator has gone off. Always use caution when using the cooktop.
