The
oven
is
combined
with
a
hob
that
can
be
made
up
of
two
types
of
heating
elements:
cast-iron
electric
plates
(
see
diagram
1
)
or
glass
ceramic
hobs,
which
may
be
traditional
(
see
diagram

)
or
with
extendable
cooking
zones
(

Traditional
cooking
zones
are
made
up
of
circular
heating
elements.
They
turn
red
approximately
ten
seconds
after
they
have
been
turned
on.
Each
cooking
zone
is
fitted
with
a
control
knob
allowing
you
to
select
from
9
different
temperature
settings
from
a
minimum
of
1
to
a
maximum
of
9.

The
extendable
radiant
elements
(B)
are
recognisable
by
the
fact
that
they
have
a
double
heating
zone.
You
can
turn
on
only
the
smaller
internal
cooking
zone
or
both
the
external
and
internal
zones.
The
control
knob
allows
you
to
choose
between
two
power
levels,
which
are
both
adjustable
between
a
minimum
value
of
1
to
a
maximum
of
9:
The
lowest
power
level
can
be
set
by
turning
the
knob
clockwise
from
1
to
9.
Turn
the
knob
to
completely
(
A
)
until
you
hear
a
slight
click,
to
enable
the
maximum
power
level,
which
in
turn
can
be
adjusted
between
9
and
1
by
turning
the
knob
anticlockwise.
To
restore
the
minimum
power
level,
turn
the
knob
and
set
it
back
to
position
0.
For
double
cooking
zones,
the
first
part
of
the
knob
movement
activates
the
smaller
cooking
zone
(internal).
To
activate
both
(internal
and
external),
it
is
necessary
to
turn
the
knob
completely
(
A
)
and
then
select
the
desired
power
level
between
9
and
1.

The
glue
that
is
applied
on
the
gaskets
leaves
some
traces
of
grease
on
the
glass
.
B
efore
using
the
appliance,
w
e
recommend
you
eliminate
these
w
ith
a
special
non
-
abrasive
cleaning
product
.
D
uring
the
first
fe
w
hours
of
use
there
may
be
a
smell
of
rubber
w
hich
w
ill
disappear
very
quickly
.
To
obtain
the
best
results
w
ith
your
hob
:
U
se
flat
-
bottomed
pans
to
ensure
that
they
adhere
to
the
cooking
zone
perfectly
.
Al
w
ays
use
pans
w
ith
a
diameter
that
is
large
enough
to
cover
the
hotplate
fully,
in
order
to
use
all
the
available
heat
.
M
ake
sure
that
the
bottom
of
the
cook
w
are
is
al
w
ays
dry
and
clean
to
guarantee
correct
adherence
and
long
life,
not
only
for
the
cooking
zones
but
also
for
the
cook
w
are
itself
.
Avoid
using
the
same
cook
w
are
that
is
used
on
gas
burners
:
the
heat
concentration
on
gas
burners
may
deform
the
base
of
the
pan,
causing
it
not
to
adhere
correctly
.
N
ever
leave
a
cooking
zone
on
w
ithout
cook
w
are
on
it
because
as
it
heats
up
and
rapidly
reaches
the
ma
x
imum
level,
it
could
damage
the
heating
elements
.
