NOTE:
•
If two or more cooking zone pads are touched simultaneously the command will be ignored
or if a zone is already in use, it may shut down. Continuing to touch zones for more than 10
seconds will cause the hob to shut down.
•
If the control panel is accidentally covered or if spillage of liquid occurs, the safety lock
system will be activated. When the cause is removed, it will be necessary to re-programme
the hob by touching the key symbol for 3 seconds.
The B15 double cooking zone can be operated in both single and double element mode by pressing the
appropriate pad (Fig 1). The B16 double and oval cooking zones can be operated in both single and
double element mode by pressing the appropriate pads (Fig 1 and Fig 2)
WARNING
•
Do not use commercial simmering aids as these can create excessive heat that can damage the
appliance.
•
Do not use the glass ceramic surface of the hob as a griddle.
•
Do not leave hotplates on without a pan or an empty pan.
•
Be aware that hotplates will retain heat whilst cooling down.
•
When cooking foods with high sugar content, ensure that any spillage is removed
immediately to avoid damage to the ceramic surface.
HELPFUL HINTS
•
Always use the correct diameter pan, one that is the same or slightly larger than the hotplate.
•
The bottom of the pan must be flat.
•
Whenever possible keep the lid on the pan when cooking.
•
Avoid over-spill of liquid by reducing the heat when boiling has occurred.
CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
Always allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning to avoid a burn injury.
Do not use caustic or abrasive agents, coarse wire wool or hard tools as these can damage the
surface finish.
Normally, wiping with a soft cloth dampened with hot detergent and drying with a soft cloth is
sufficient but for stubborn marks the following is recommended:
Vitreous Enamel or
Stainless Steel parts
– use only a cleaner that is recommended for these
types of material – avoid chloride based products (such as bleach).
Glass Ceramic surfaces
– if any spillage becomes burnt on, remove with a ceramic glass cleaner
or scraper and clean with a cleaner-conditioner containing silicone.
Do not allow the ceramic glass surface to become scratched or damaged as this could lead to
a hazard.
