PLEASE NOTE: smeg ceramic cooktops are highly-efficient
cooking surfaces. They are at their most efficient with flat-
based cooking vessels. We recommend stainless steel exterior
based vessels — that is, the surface be of stainless steel. This
flat stainless steel surface will help preserve the unblemished
look of the ceramic surface and help avoid scratching and
permanent marking. High-quality cast-iron surfaces may also
be suitable.
“GO AND STOP”
For improved energy and time efficiencies, when a heat setting is
selected for a particular zone, full power is applied for a very brief initial
phase before it returns to the preselected heat level. This pre-emptive
heat aid is referred to as ‘go and stop’ in the cooktop’s accompanying
instruction booklet.
AUTOMATIC STOP
Each zone can be preset with an individual cooking duration (up
to 99 minutes). This timed cooking can be selected for respective
different times on different zones — that is, all zones can be operated
simultaneously and at different time settings. When the individual zone’s
timed cooking duration elapses, the controls will flash ‘00’ and an
audible signal will emit.
KITCHEN TIMER
The cooktop’s controls can also be used as an independent, variable
countdown timer with audible end signal. Range is one through 99
minutes.
THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION
For safety, the cooktop will default to ‘OFF’ in any extreme conditions,
such as a continuous overflow of boiling fluids or a utensil cooking its
contents dry. Cooking can only be resumed after the fault has been
cleared from the electronic LED safeguards. Also for safety reasons,
cooking cannot resume automatically — it must be manually restarted.
WARNING: technical specifications and product sizes can be varied by the manufacturer,
without notice. Cutouts for appliances should only be by physical product measurements.
