HINTS FOR SAFE USE OF THE
VITROCERAMIC HOB
•
Before switching on, check which knob controls the required cooking zone. You are
advised to place the saucepan on the hob before switching on and to take it off after
switching off.
•
To switch on, always lightly press the control knob then turn it.
•
Use saucepans with an even flat bottom (be careful of cast iron saucepans). Uneven
bottoms can scratch the pyroceram surface. Check that the bottom is clean and dry.
•
The diameter of the pan should match that of the cooking zone (or be slightly bigger)
to make the most of the energy.
•
Pots with aluminium bottoms may leave silver streaks or spots on the hob.
•
Do not leave wet or damp lids on the hob.
•
Do not use the top if the surface is broken or damaged.
•
If you note a crack in the cooktop, switch the appliance off immediately and
call the After-Sales Service.
•
Do not bend over the cooking zones when they are on.
•
Do not leave aluminium foil, greaseproof paper etc. or plastic on the hob when it is
hot.
•
Remember that the cooking zones stay hot for quite a long time (approx. 30 min.)
after they have been switched off.
•
Scrupulously follow the cleaning instructions.
•
Do not drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass ceramic cooktop.
•
Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop, but in special pans or
containers.
COOKING ZONES POWER INDICATOR LIGHT
(fig. 2.6)
When the ceramic hob is working, the “
ON
” pilot light in the control panel will be on (fig.
2.6a).
COOKING ZONES RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATORS
IMPORTANT
When the temperature of a cooking zone is above 140 °F (60 °C), the relevant “
HOT
SURFACE
” warning light in the vitroceramic hob (fig. 2.6b) will come on to indicate that
the zone is hot.
This light will stay on even after the cooking zone has been switched off to indicate that
the zone is still hot.
The residual heat persists for some time after the cooking zone has been switched off.
During this time avoid touching the hob and take particular care if there are
children nearby.
The light will go out automatically when the cooking zone temperature drops below 140
°F (60 °C).

Make sure that the handles of
cookware do not stick out over the
edge of the range, to avoid them
being knocked over by accident.
This also makes it more difficult
for children to reach the cooking
vessels.
