How to use the vitroceramic hob
Fig. 6
Fig. 5
The ceramic surface of the hob allows a
fast transmission of heat in the vertical
direction, from the heating elements
underneath the ceramic glass to the
pans sat on it.
The heat does not spread in the hori-
zontal direction, so that the glass stays
“cool” at only a few centimeters from
the cooking plate.
The 5 cooking plates are shown by
painted disks on the ceramic surface.
3 circuit radiant zones
Incorporating 3 heating elements (fig. 6)
you can control and light up all 3
together or separately by selecting from
the 6 positions on the control knob (fig.
5).
The working temperature required is
reached in a very short time.
Important note:
The heating elements incorporate a
thermolimiter that switches the element
ON/OFF during all the settings to pro-
tect the ceramic glass from overheat-
ing.
The use of incorrect pans and/or
wrong pan positioning will cause the
temperature limiter to operate more fre-
quently, resulting in a reduction of
cooking performance.
