Fig. 3.1
The ceramic surface of the hob allows a
fast transmission of heat in the vertical
direction, from the heating elements
underneath the ceramic glass to the
pans set on it.
The heat does not spread in a horizontal
direction, so that the glass stays “cool”
at only a few centimeters from the cook-
ing plate.
The 5 cooking zones are shown by
painted disks on the ceramic surface.
3 CIRCUIT RADIANT ZONES
Incorporating 3 heating elements (fig.
3.2) you can control and light up all 3
together or separately by selecting from
the 6 positions on the control knob (fig.
3.1).
The working temperature required is
reached in a very short time.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The heating elements incorporate a
thermolimiter that switches the element
ON/OFF during all the settings to pro-
tect the ceramic glass from overheating.
The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong
pan positioning will cause the tempera-
ture limiter to operate more frequently,
resulting in a reduction of cooking per-
formance.
