Cooking Guidelines
Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using
power boost. At extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this
presents a serious fire risk.
Cooking Tips
• When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat
• Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times
• Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated through.
Heat Settings
The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will depend on several factors,
including your cookware and amount you are cooking. Experiment with the ceramic hob to find
the settings that best suit you.

What?
Everyday soiling on
glass (fingerprints,
marks, stains left by
food or non-sugary
spillovers on the
glass)
How?
1. Switch the power to the
cooker off.
2. Apply a cooktop cleaner
while the glass is still warm
( but not hot! )
3. Rinse and wipe dry with a
clean cloth or paper towel.
4. Switch the power to the
cooktop back on.
Important!
• When the power to the cooktop is
switched off, ther will be no ‘hot surface’
indication but the cooking zone may still
be hot! Take extreme care.
• Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon
scourers and harsh/abrasive cleaning
agents may scratch the glass.
Always read the label to check if your
cleaner or scourer is suitable.
• Never leave cleaning residue on the
cooktop, the glass may become stained.
