Electric Hobs
OFF
• On hobs equipped with thermoelectric
protection do not keep the ignition but-
ton pushed for more than 15 seconds. If
the burner has not ignited after 15 sec-
onds, open the door of the room and
wait at least one minute before making
another attempt.
• On hobs not equipped with protection,
should the burner flame go out, close
the corresponding gas valve and wait
at least one minute before making any
other attempt to ignite it.
Electrical plates/Vitroceramic heating elements
(Fig. 2-2a, 3). Rotate the knob towards the
position required for cooking and bear in
mind that the higher the number, the higher
the heat output. See the table "Use of electri-
cal plates"/heating elements vitroceramic.
The pilot light signals that the plate is "on".
Some types of pilot lights will maintain some
slight luminescence even after disconnec-
tion. That is quite normal.

Note:
When using electrical plates heating ele-
ments vitroceramic, we recommend flat bot-
tom recipients with a diameter equal or
slightly larger than that of the plate itself.
• Avoid liquid overflow. Therefore, after
boiling or heating liquids, reduce the heat
output.
• Do not leave the electrical plates on with
empty pots and pans.
• When cooking is finished, rotate the knob
back to the OFF position. In the event of
even a slight fracture on the cooking
vitroceramic surface, immediately dis-
connect the electric power supply.
DO NOT STARE AT THE HALOGEN LAMP.
