HOW TO USE THE HOB

2

The ceramic surface of the hob allows a fast transmission of heat in the vertical direction,
from the heating elements underneath the
ceramic glass to the pans set on it.
The heat does not spread in a horizontal
direction, so that the glass stays “cool” at only
a few centimeters from the cooking plate.
The cooking zones are shown by painted disks
on the ceramic surface.
Before switching on the cooktop make sure
that it is clean.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The heating elements incorporate a
thermolimiter that switches the element ON/
OFF during all settings to protect the ceramic
glass from overheating.
The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong pan
positioning will cause the temperature limiter to
operate more frequently, resulting in a reduction
of cooking performance.

The temperature limiter can be seen under the
glass dissecting the element.
This is not a fault with the appliance.

HI-LIGHT RADIANT ZONES (g. 2.1)

The heating element is formed of a coil of resistant material which reaches the working
temperature quickly.

These zones are controlled by a continuous energy regulator switch (gs. 2.2a - 2.2b).

The heat intensity can be regulated continuously from “O” to “12” (max).
Check that the hob is clean and then switch on by turning the control knob.
When the hob is working, the pilot light will be on.

HI-LIGHT DOUBLE ZONE and HI-LIGHT OVAL ZONES

The heating element is formed of a 2 coils of resistant material which reaches the working
temperature quickly.

These zones are controlled by a continuous energy regulator switch (gs. 2.3a - 2.3b).

The heat intensity can be regulated continuously from “O” to “12” (max).

Check that the hob is clean and then switch on by turning the control knob.

When the hob is working, the pilot light will be on.

By switching on the second element (g. 2.4), the surface area of the double and oval

hilight zones can be extended.

For this purpose, turn the control knob (gs. 2.3a - 2.3b) fully to the right (position ).

RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATORS

The hob also features 4 or 5 warning lamps which
are wired to the corresponding plate.

When the temperature of a cooking plate is over
60°C, the relevant warning lamp is also litup to
warn of heat on the surface of the hob.

These lamps also stay on after the cooking plates
have been switched off to shown that the hob
surface is still hot.

This residual heat will lasts for a long time after the
cooking plate has been switched off.

During this time you should avoid touching
the hob surface over the cooking area.

Please pay special attention to ensure that
children are not allowed near the hob.

The lamps will switch off automatically as soon as the surface temperature of the cooking
zone falls below 60°C.

Fig. 2.6

COOKING HINTS

• To reduce the cooking time, you can turn the control knob to the max when you switch

the plate on. After a short time you will set the control knob to the required position for
the cooking.

• You should use pots and pans with at bases (pans with the test mark for glassceramic

hobs are available from specialist shops).

• The diameter of the pan should match that of the cooking plate (or be slightly bigger)

to make the most of the energy.

• Since the cooking surface stays hot for a certain time after the plate has been switched

off, you can switch it off 5 or 10 minutes before the end of the cooking.

 The residual heat of the hob will complete the cooking.

• To save electricity, use pan lids whenever possible.

Caution!
The cooking hob becomes very hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.

Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop, but in special pans or
containers.

WARNING: Hobs become very hot with use, and retain their heat for a long time after

cooking has nished (about 30 minutes).

Children should be supervised at all times and be prevented from touching the hot
surfaces, until such time as the appliance has cooled.

14

SAFETY HINTS

• Before you switch the hob on, make

sure you know which knob controls the
required cooking zone. We advise you
to set the pan over the cooking zone
before switching it on.

• Do not use pots and pans with rough

bases (pay attention to cookware
made of cast-iron). Rough bases can
damage the glass surface of the hob
(scratches).

• Always ensure that the base of your

saucepan is clean and dry before
placing on the hob.

• Pots with aluminium bottoms may

leave silver streaks or spots on the
hob.

• Do not leave wet or damp lids on the

hob.

• The glass-ceramic surface and pans

must be clean. Carefully eliminate any
food remains (especially containing
sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a
cleansing agent.

• Pan handles should never stand out

beyond the kitchen worktop, as there
is a great danger of knocking the pan

over.

• This will also ensure that children

cannot reach them.

• Do not use the hob if the glass

surface is broken or cracked in any
way. Please disconnect the hob
from the mains and contact the

after-sales service.

• Do not lean over the cooking plate

when in use.

• Do not lay cooking foil or plastic

materials on the ceramic surface when
it is hot.

• Remember that the surface remains

hot for a long time (about 30 min.) after
the cooking plate has been switched
off.

• Follow the cleaning instructions

carefully.

• Never use the glass surface for

storage.

CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB

Before you begin cleaning make sure that the hob is switched off.

• Remove spillages and other types of incrustations.

• Dust or food particles can be removed with a damp cloth.

• If you use a detergent, please make sure that it is not abrasive or scouring. Abrasive

or scouring powders can damage the glass surface of the hob.

• All traces of the cleaner must be removed with a damp cloth.

• Dust, fat and liquids from food that has boiled over must be removed as soon as

possible.

• If they are allowed to harden they become increasingly difcult to remove.

This is especially true in the case of sugar/syrup mixtures which could
permanently pit the surface of the hob if left to burn on it.

• If any of these products has melted on the ceramic surface, you should remove it

immediately (when the surface is still hot) by using a scraper to avoid any permanent
damage to the surface of the hob (available under part no. 103138).

• Do not put articles on the hob which can melt: i.e plastic, aluminium foil, sugar, sugar

syrup mixtures etc.

• Avoid using a knife or other sharp utensil as these may damage the ceramic surface.

• Do not use steel wool or an abrasive sponge which could scratch the surface

permanently.

STAINLESS STEEL ELEMENTS (only models with side stainless steel trims)

• Stainless steel parts must be rinsed with water and dried with a soft and clean cloth

or with a chamois leather.

• For persistent dirt, use specic non-abrasive products available commercially or a

little hot vinegar.

CONTROL KNOBS

• The control knobs may be removed for cleaning but care should be taken not to

damage the seal.

Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance
thus make it unsafe.

• Once the appliance has been installed, the switch must always be in a accessible

position.

N.B. For connections to the mains power supply, never use adaptors, reductions or

multiple power points as these may overheat and catch re.

In the event that installation should require modications to the mains supply wiring system,
it is recommended that a qualied technician be called to carry out substitution.

He should also check that the domestic electrical system is suitable for the power absorbed
by the appliance.

If the hob surface is cracked disconnect the appliance from the mains and contact
the After-Sales Service.
