4. USE OF THE COOKING HOB
4.1 Cooking zones
The appliance features 4 cooking zones of
different diameter and power. Their position is
clearly indicated by circles and the heat given
off is defined by the markings on the glass
surface.
The 4 cooking zones are of the HIGH-LIGHT type and come on after a
few seconds of being activated. Heating intensity can be adjusted by
means of the knobs located on the front panel from a minimum setting of
1 to a maximum setting of 9 .
The cooking zones marked by two concentric circles ( ) and by a
fish-kettle (
) feature double heating either within the inner circle or both
circles.
The 4 signal lamps located between the cooking zones come
on when the temperature of one or more of the heating zones
exceeds 60°C.
The lamps go off upon temperature dropping to below approximately
60°C.
When using for the first time, it is advisable to heat up the cooking hob to
its maximum temperature for enough time so as to burn off any possible
oily manufacturing residues, the smell of which could otherwise be
absorbed by the food.
For best results and energy saving, only use receptacles suitable for
electric cooking:
•
The bottom of the receptacles must be very
thick and perfectly flat; before placing on the
cooking hob, make sure that it, as well as the
cooking hob itself, are perfectly clean and dry.
•
To avoid scratching of the cooking hob, never
use cast-iron receptacles or receptacles with a
rough bottom.
•
To avoid waste of energy, make sure that the
diameter of the receptacle bottom is the same
as that of the circle marked on the cooking
hob.
