Using the electric hob
!
The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of
grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we
recommend you remove these with a special non-
abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours
of use there may be a smell of rubber which will
disappear very quickly.
Switching the cooking zones on and off
To switch on a cooking zone, turn the corresponding
knob in a clockwise direction.
To switch it off again, turn the knob in an anticlockwise
direction until it is in the “0” position.
If the ELECTRIC HOTPLATE ON indicator light is lit, this
shows that at least one hotplate on the hob is switched
on.
Practical advice on using the hob
• Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that they
adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.
• Always use pans with a diameter that is large
enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all
the heat produced.
• Always make sure that the base of the pan is
completely clean and dry: this ensures that the pans
adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and that both
the pans and the hob last for a longer period of time.
• Avoid using the same cookware that is used on gas
burners: the heat concentration on gas burners may
have warped the base of the pan, causing it not to
adhere to the surface correctly.
• Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a
pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone to
become damaged.
Rotisserie*
To operate the rotisserie
(
see diagram
) proceed as
follows:
1. Place the dripping
pan in position 1.
2. Place the rotisserie
support in position 4 and
insert the spit in the hole
provided on the back
panel of the oven.
3. Activate the rotisserie
by selecting /
with the SELECTOR knob.
Using the “end-cooking” timer*
1.
To set the buzzer, turn the COOKING TIMER knob
clockwise almost one complete revolution.
2. Turn the knob anticlockwise to set the desired time:
align the minutes shown on the COOKING TIMER knob
with the indicator on the control panel.
3. When the selected time has elapsed, a buzzer
sounds and the oven turns off.
4. When the oven is off the cooking timer can be used
as a normal timer.
! To use the oven manually, in other words when you
do not wish to use the end of cooking timer, turn the
COOKING TIMER knob until it reaches the

symbol.
