The hob
The cooker has four hotplates. Fast-heating hotplates are
marked with a red dot and have an overheating cut-out
function.
The front left hotplate is thermostatically controlled,
and is identified by three Ts. The built-in thermostat
ensures that the hotplate maintains an even temperature
once it has reached the setting selected. This means
• that the frying pan/saucepan maintains a constant
temperature, which is important for achieving good
results.
• that you rarely have to alter the control setting
while cooking
• a minimal risk of pans boiling over
• a minimal risk of food burning onto pans, e.g.
foods containing milk
Using the hob
Never leave the cooker unattended while deep fat
frying, or when using it for melting fats, paraffin
wax or other flammable substances. In the event
of a fire, turn off all the controls and the cooker
hood fan.

,
never use water.
The control setting you choose will depend on your
pans, what you are cooking and the quantity. Use the
recommendations given below as a guide and you will
soon learn the correct control settings.
The thermostatically-controlled hotplate
The control is graduated from 1 to 12 (12 is the
hottest). Turn clockwise to turn the hotplate on, and
anticlockwise to turn it off. The time it takes for the
hotplate to heat up varies according to the chosen
setting. It takes about 7 minutes for the hotplate to heat
up for frying pancakes on setting 9.
The thermostatic control works best if you use a
good frying pan/saucepan. Turn the control to the
recommended setting straight away:
