USING THE HOTPLATES

USING THE HOTPLATES

Hot Surface Warning Light

Radiant Hotplates

The high-speed radiant coil hotplates heat rapidly  
from a cold start to give you economic use of power.  
Radiant hotplate models have a bowl under each element  
for collecting spillage.

The radiant elements are removable to aid in cleaning the 
hob and spillage bowls. The spillage bowl can be removed  
by first removing the element and then removing the  
spillage bowl.

Ceramic Hotplates

The ceramic cooktop is made from ceramic glass, a tough 
durable material that withstands heating and cooling 
without breaking. However it must be remembered that it 
is glass, it may break. Treat it accordingly!

Should you have any questions about the glass in your 
appliance, please contact the Customer Care Centre  
by calling:

1300 363 640 (Australia) 
0800 436 245 (New Zealand)

WARNING

If the ceramic glass is cracked, switch off the appliance to 
avoid the possibility of electric shock.

Utensils

• 

 Use pans with flat bottoms. Uneven or thin bottoms  
will waste energy and result in slow cooking.

• 

 Use pans slightly larger than the hotplates. Small pans  
will waste energy.

• 

 Do not use oversize pans. More than 50mm overhang 
can overheat cooktop components and can cause 
fine cracks in the enamel hob which will trap dirt.

• 

 Use only dry utensils. Do not place wet or steamy  
parts (e.g. lids) on the hotplates.

• 

 Do not use pots and pans that are unsteady and likely  
to rock or over balance.

• 

 Do not operate the cooktop for an extended time 
without a utensil on the hotplate.

Cooking Do’s and Don’ts

• 

 Do use the stored heat in the hotplate by turning the 
control to “0“ before the final few minutes of cooking.

• 

 Do not place heat resistant mats, wire mats or 
aluminium foil under pots and pans.

• 

 Do not allow pots and pans to boil dry, as damage to 
both pan and hotplate may result.

• 

 Do not use round bottom woks or similar utensils  
which could lead to overheating of the hotplates and 
possible damage to the cooking surface.

• 

 Do not use the cooktop as extra bench space or as  
a cutting board.

• 

 Do not allow children on or near the cooktop at  
any time.
