Operation
ELECTRIC HOTPLATES
To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to the required heat setting.
The control knob is numbered 1 - 6
0- OFF
1- Minimum
2- Maximum.
The hob has two types of hotplates:
Normal Hotplates
We recommend the plates are switched to maximum
(6) for a short while to boost the plate, and then adjusted to the required setting.
Rapid Hotplates
The rapid hotplates are indicated by a red dot, and will heat up more quickly than a normal plate. As the red dots are painted on the plate, they may deteriorate during use and even disappear completely after a period of time. This will not affect the performance of the hob.
It is important to note that the plate may smoke i a little and produce a slightly unpleasant odour
when used for the first time. This is quite normal and will disappear after a few minutes.
Suggestions for the correct setting of the plates are given in the following table.
