inspected by specialised Technical Service
personnel at least once every 4 years.
Note:
Any alteration or adjustment needed by
the appliance should be made by aut-
horised technical personnel.
Suggestions for using the
hotplates effectively
To ensure maximum performance whem
using electric hotplates, follow these gui-
delines:
* Use pans with a flat base, as the greater
the surface contact between the pan
and the hotplate, the greater will be the
heat transmission. We recommend the
use of heavy pans so that the base is
more difficult to dent. The picture shows
how pans with battered or dented bases
have less surface contact.
* Do not use pans with a diameter that is
smaller than that of the hotplate, in order
to avoid boiling foods spilling over onto
the hotplates.
* Dry the bottom of your pans before put-
ting them on the hotplates.
* When you are almost finished cooking, it
is a good idea to set the hotplate to the
minimum or to turn it off just before
removing the pan, in order to make use
of the energy that has been stored and
to avoid the hotplate operating while it is
empty.
NEVER USE ELECTRIC HOTPLATES
WITHOUT A PAN.
Maintenance of the electric
hotplates (CG.1 3G 1P)
Disconnect the appliance from the electric
mains before cleaning it.
The electric hotplates should be cleaned
using soapy water and a non-abrasive
scourer. If, after cooking, you notice that
the electric hotplate’s stainless steel rim or
the cooker’s surround are yellowing
slightly, you can counter this by using
lemon, vinegar, dilute amonia or any pro-
duct containing dilute ammonia.
Do not clean the hotplates while they are
still hot.
If liquids spill onto a hotplate, they should
be quickly removed using a dry cloth.
Never allow spills to burn on the hotplate,
as the heat transmission will be signifi-
cantly reduced.
After using the hotplate, it should be oiled
so that the surface stays shiny and rusting
is avoided.
Remember that the hotplate will have a
longer life if moisture and excessive tem-
peratures are avoided.
Steam-based appliances should not be
used to clean the hob.
Cleaning and care
For best care of the glass, it should be cle-
aned when it is cold, with suitable pro-
ducts. It should be cleaned after each use,
so that cleaning is easier and there is no
build-up of dirt from repeated use.
