Hints and Tips
Important:
When ceramic heaters are
operated in higher heat settings, the
heated areas may be seen switching
on and off. This is due to a safety device,
which prevents the glass from overheating.
Some switching on and off when cooking at
high temperatures is quite normal, causes
no damage to the hob and little delay in
cooking times.
WARNING:
• Never operate the hob without pans on
the cooking zone.
• Only use flat saucepans with a
sufficiently thick base.
• Make sure the bottom of the pan is dry
before placing it on the hob.
• While the cooking zone is in operation,
it is important to ensure that the pan is
centred correctly above the zone.
• In order to conserve energy, never use
a pan with a different diamater to the
hotplate being used.

• Do not use saucepans with rough
bottoms since these can scratch the
glass ceramic surface.
• If possible, always place lids on the
pans.
• The temperature of accessible parts
maybe high when the appliance is
operating. Keep children and animals
well away from the hob during operation
and until it has fully cooled after
operation.
• If you notice a crack on the cook top
it must be switched off immediately
and replaced by authorised service
personnel.
