To obtain the best results from your hob:
• use flat-bottomed pans to ensure that they adhere to the cooking zone
perfectly.
• always use pans with a diameter that is large enough to cover the hotplate
fully, in order to use all the available heat.
• make sure that the bottom of the cookware is always dry and clean to
guarantee correct adherence and long life, not only for the cooking zones
but also for the cookware itself.
• avoid using the same cookware 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.
• never leave a cooking zone on without cookware on it because as it heats
up and rapidly reaches the maximum level, which could damage the
heating elements.
!
There might be traces of grease left by the glue used to seal the glass
which should be removed before using the appliance with a mild cleaning
product. During the first few hours of use you might smell rubber but this will
disappear quickly.
