You have just purchased a glass ceramic hob featuring halogen and radiant cooking zones. You will now be able to benefit
from the four assets of halogen cooking:

• Top performance - The infrared radiation ensures the immediate transmission of heat. The rapid rise in temperature
and the poor thermal inertia of the halogen cooking zones allow for guaranteed control flexibility.

• Comfort - Halogen cooking ensures the same visual comfort as gas cooking. The brightness of the lamps - just like
the length of a flame - and the height of the power level display correspond to the intensity of the heating power.

• Stylish design - The perfectly smooth surface allows for perfect integration into your kitchen worktop.

• Practicality and convenience - The temperature of the halogen lamps drops instantly as soon as the heating
power is reduced. A residual heat indicator situated beside each cooking zone shows that the temperature is still above
60°C, even after use.

This appliance was designed for non-professional, household use.

Before using the appliance, read the instructions in the owner's manual carefully since it contains all the instructions you
require to ensure safe installation, use and maintenance. Keep this owner's manual in a safe place for future reference.

Using the hob for the first time

The glue used on the hob seals may leave greasy traces on the glass surface during warehousing. We recommend you
wipe these traces off before using the appliance, using an ordinary cleaning product (non abrasive polish).
During the first few hours of use, you may detect a smell of rubber, which will disappear quickly.

Hob description

The hob is fitted with "Haloring" cooking zones with circular lamps and/or "Quickring" radiant cooking zones.

The "Haloring" cooking zone comprises a circular halogen lamp for the optimum distribution of the heat radiated. Its
properties are similar to those of gas burners, making it ideal for quick frying over a high flame, frying and all other cooking
processes requiring a rapid rise in temperature.

The "Quickring" radiant cooking zone comprises several coils that guarantee the distribution of the heat over the
bottom of the cookware. The precision of the Mijotronic system and the stable and homogeneous distribution of heat will
guarantee the success of all cooking on low heat: simmering, sauces or reheating.

Even after the zone has been turned off, the corresponding residual heat indicator stays on for as long as the zone is
at a temperature above 60°C.

The 12-setting knobs allow you to control the cooking zones.

Cooking zone control

Halogen zones and radiant zones are controlled by 12-position Mijotronic knobs to ensure the correct supply of energy
according to time: the cooking zones do not heat constantly, but rather in pre-set sequences.

1-2 very low (melted chocolate, melted butter, keeping delicate sauces warm,

like hollandaise, Béarnaise, etc.),

2-3 low (keeping food warm, scrambled eggs, etc.),
4-5 moderate (simmering, etc.),
5-6 moderate (simmering, etc.),
6-7-8 high (soups, fried eggs, Wiener schnitzel, cooking pasta and rice on reaching

boiling point, etc.),

9-10 fierce (steak, fish, omelettes, etc),
11-12 very fierce (to boil large quantities of water; to fast boil water for cooking

pasta, rice and hard-boiled eggs, cooking greens, etc.).

What cookware to use

2
3

• Use pans with a very thick flat bottom so they adhere fully to the heating zone.

• The diameter of the pans must match the diameter of the cooking zone so that all the available heat can be used.

• Avoid at all costs all cookware with irregular rough bases which could scratch the glass surface.

• It is preferable that you cover your cookware with a suitable lid to speed up the rise in temperature.

Maintenance

The vitroceramic glass used for the heating surface is smooth and poreless and it is also resistant to thermal shocks and
to mechanical shocks under normal conditions of use. In order to preserve these properties, we recommend you care for
your hob as follows:

• for ordinary maintenance, just wipe it with a damp sponge and dry it thoroughly using paper towels.

• If the hob is dirty, rub clean using a special cleaner suitable for vitroceramic glass, rinse off and dry thoroughly.

• food residue and dirt can be removed using a special scraper. Do this as soon as possible, do not wait for the hob

to cool down in order to avoid incrustations. For excellent results, use a special stainless steel wool pad for vitroceramic
glass cleaning soaked in soapy water.

• When the hob is clean, you can apply a special product for the care and protection of the same: this type of product
leaves an invisible film on the surface of the hob to protect the same against any spills and boiled-over food. It is best if
you do this when the hob is lukewarm or cold.

• Make sure you always rinse the hob with clean water and dry it thoroughly: otherwise the cleaning products could
become encrusted onto the hob during subsequent cooking.
