6. USING THE COOKING HOB
6.1 General warnings and advice
Important: Supervise children carefully as they cannot readily see the indication of residual heat. After
use the cooking zones remain hot for a certain period of time even if they have been turned off. Keep
children away from the cooking zones.
Take care not to spill sugar or sweet mixtures onto the hob when hot. Never place materials or
substances which may melt (plastic or aluminium foil) on the hob. If this occurs, promptly switch off the
cooking zones and remove the molten material with the scraper provided while the hot plate is still
lukewarm to prevent the surface from being damaged. Failure to clean the glass ceramic hob straight
away could lead to encrustations which are impossible to remove once the hob has cooled down.
When the hob is used for the first time, you are advised to heat it to the maximum temperature long
enough to burn off any oily residues from manufacturing in order to ensure that the food does not absorb
odours.
For best cooking results and energy saving, only use containers suitable for
electric cooking:
The bases of containers must be very thick, perfectly flat and clean and dry.
The hob must also be clean and dry.
Do not use cast iron saucepans or saucepans with a rough base, as they
may scratch the cooking surface.
The diameter of the base of the saucepans must be equal to the diameter
of the circle outlining the cooking zone. If not, energy will be wasted.
6.2 Using the cooking zones
The appliance has 5 cooking zones of various diameters and
power levels. Their position is clearly indicated with circles and
heat is released within the diameters traced on the glass
ceramic surface. The 5 cooking zones are HIGH-LIGHT zones
and come on a few seconds after activation. The heat intensity
can be adjusted using the knobs located on the front panel from
a minimum to a maximum value.
The cooking zones indicated by two concentric circles and
by a fish burner allow double heating, either within
the inner circle or in both circles.
6.3 Residual heat indicator lights
The four indicator lights located between the cooking zones come on when
the temperature of one or more of the radiating zones exceeds 60°C.
These lights switch off when the temperature falls below approximately
60°C.
