Operation
Push-Pull control knobs
The appliance is provided with pushpull control knobs (see picture). These
knobs can be completely sunken inside
the control panel when the oven/hob is
not working.
Ceramic hob cooking zones
To switch on a cooking zone, turn the
relevant control knob clockwise to the required heat setting.
The control knob is numbered 0 - 9.
0 - OFF
9 - Maximum.
The hob has two types of cooking zones:
3 normal cooking zones (back left,3 normal cooking zones (back left,

We recommend the plates are
switched to maximum (9) for a short
while to boost the cooking zone, and
then adjusted to the required setting.

The front left cooking zone has two
heating elements.
- To switch on the smaller circular
cooking zone, turn the relevant con-
trol knob clockwise to the required
heat setting.
- To switch on both heating elements,
turn the control knob clockwise to
maximum heat setting (9) then turn the
knob further to nearly reach the "0"
symbol. You will hear a "click" and the
wider cooking zone will switch on.
Then turn back the knob to position 9
and adjust it to the required heat
setting.
Please be aware that the two heating
elements will now operate together, giving a higher power output than a normal
cooking zone.

Residual heat indicators
The hob is fitted with four residual heat
indicators corresponding to each cooking zone. The corresponding indicator will
remain on until the temperature falls below 30°C, even after the cooking zone is
switched off.
When a cooking zone is switched
on, a short buzzing may be heard.
This is quite normal and does not
affect the hob operation in any way.
Mains on light
The mains on light will come on when
the oven function control knob and/or the
cooking zone control knobs are set.
Using the ceramic glass hob
Ceramic glass surface
The glass is hard, and has been
tempered to withstand heat, cold and
temperature shocks. But like all glass it
is sensitive to impact. Do not stand on
the ceramic glass surface.

Keep all objects and materials
which can melt away from the
cooking surface, e.g. plastics,
aluminium foil.
Care should be taken when
preparing food or drinks
containing sugar. If anything of
this nature accidentally comes
into contact with the ceramic
surface it must be scraped off
immediately while still hot and
wiped away to avoid damage to
the surface.
Energy consumption
To save energy, you should:
- use only cooking and frying utensils
with smooth, flat bases.
- place pots and pans in position
before switching on the cooking
zone.
- wherever possible, cover pots and
pans with a lid.
- switch off the cooking zone a few
minutes before the end of the
cooking time, in order to make use of
the residual heat.
- use the residual heat of the cooking
zones for keeping food warm or for
melting.
- position pots and pans centrally on
the cooking zones.
Saucepans and frying pans
Saucepans and frying pans should
not be smaller than the cooking zone,
and preferably not more than 10-15 mm
larger than the diameter of the cooking
zone.
Always use cooking and frying
utensils with smooth, flat bases.
The bases should always be clean
and dry. Cook with a lid in place.
Check that the bases of utensils are
smooth and undamaged; bases with
burrs and sharp edges will scratch the
ceramic glass surface.
To avoid scratching or damaging the
ceramic cooking surface, pots and pans
should be moved on the plate by lifting
them, and not by sliding.
Utensils with aluminium and copper
bases can leave behind metallic
discolourations which can only be
removed with difficulty or sometimes not
at all.
