OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
8
BEFORE FIRST USE
• Read this guide, taking special note of the
“safety instructions” section.
• Remove any packaging, protective fi lms or
warning sticker that may be on the cooktop.
• Wipe the cooktop with a soft, dry cloth to
remove any dust.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The cooking area controls are called “infi nite”
controls. This type of control has an infi nite selection
of heat settings. The control settings begin at high
and decrease heat output by cycling the heating
elements between “off” and “on” as you turn the
knob clockwise. The heating elements will stay “off”
for longer periods and “on” for shorter periods as
you turn the knob clockwise, thus reducing the heat
output.
For your safety, we have incorporated a “HOT”
indicator light. When lit, this light indicates that
some part of the glass ceramic cooktop is too warm
to touch or place articles upon. Do not place articles
other than cookware on the cooking surface while
this light is glowing.
HOT SURFACE INDICATOR
• The hot surface indicator will light up when the
appliance is turned on and the temperature of
the cooktop is high.
• The light will stay after the appliance it turned
off and the cooktop is still hot.
• The cooktop may still be hot after the hot surface
indicator has turned out. Use caution and ensure
the cooktop is completely cool before cleaning
or maintenance.
COOKWARE
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a
curved base.
Make sure the base of the pan is smooth, sits
fl at against the glass and is the same size as the
cooking element. Always center the pan on the
element.
Always lift pans off the ceramic surface. Do not
slide as they may scratch the glass.
