Heating elements - Manual control

Rotate the knob concerned to the position correspondant
to the needs of cooking taking into consideration that
to a higher number a higher heat supply corresponds,
see table “use of heating elements”.

When pilot lights are lit, they indicate the top temperature
at the indicated spot is higher than 50’ C.

Some types of pilot lights will maintain some slight
luminescence even after disconnection. That is
quite normal.

N.B. - When one makes use of heating elements, we

advise receptacles with flat bottom (Fig. 3) having same
diameter or lightly higher than that of the hot area.

- Avoid overflows of liquid, therefore when boiling has
happened, or in any case when liquid is heated,
reduce the heat supply.

- Don’t leave the heating elements on without
receptades on the top or withvoid pots and pans.

In the event of even a slight fracture on the cooking surface,
disconnect the electric power supply immediately.
