Fig. 3.1

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 5 cooking zones are shown by paint­ed disks on the ceramic surface.

3 CIRCUIT RADIANT ZONES

Incorporating 3 heating elements (fig.

3.2) you can control and light up all 3
together or separately by selecting from
the 6 positions on the control knob (fig.

3.1).
The working temperature required is
reached in a very short time.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The heating elements incorporate a
thermolimiter that switches the element
ON/OFF during all the 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.

10

DOUBLE AND OVAL RADIANT ZONES

The heating element is formed of a coil
of resistant material which reaches the
working temperature quickly.
Operation of the cooking zone is con­trolled by a continuous energy regulator
from “1” to “12” (maximum temperature)
(fig. 3.3).

By switching on the second element (fig.

3.4 and 3.5), the surface area of the rear
right and central radiant zones can be
extended.
For this purpose, turn the control knob
(fig.

3.3)fully to the right (position

).

RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR

The hob also features 5 warning lights
which are connected to the correspond­ing plates.

When the temperature of a cooking plate
is above 60°C, the relevant warning light
will also light up to warn of heat on the
surface of the hob.

This light also stay on after the cooking
plate has been switched off to show 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 light will switch off automatically as
soon as the surface temperature of the
cooking plate falls below 60°C.

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 can set the
control knob to the position required
for cooking.

– You should only use pots and pans

with flat bases (pans with the test
mark for glass-ceramic 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 will 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.

– Never cook the food directly on the

glass ceramic cooktop.

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

DEEP FAT FRYING

For safety purposes when deep fat fry­ing, do not fill the pan more than one
third full of oil.

DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO
NOT leave the pan unattended.

In the unfortunate event of a fire, leave
the pan where it is and turn off the con­trol knobs.

Place a damp cloth or lid over the pan to
smother the flames. Leave the pan to
cool for at least 30minutes before mov­ing the pan.

DO NOT USE WATER ON THE FIRE.

SAFETY HINTS:

– Before you switch the hob on, make sure

you know which knob controls the
required cooking plate. We advise you
to set the pan over the cooking plate
before switching it on. Remove the pan
after you have switched the cooking
plate off.

– Do not use pots and pans with rough

bases (pay attention to cookware made
of cast-iron). Rough bases can damage

(scratch) the glass surface of the hob.
Make sure that the bottom of the pan is
dry and clean.

– 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 remove any

food debris (especially containing

sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a cleans-

ing 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 sur-

face 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 materi-

als 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 careful-

ly.

Do not use the glass surface for
storage.

CLEANING

Before you begin cleaning make
sure that the appliance 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.

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

If any of these products items have 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).

Avoid using a knife or other sharp utensils
since these can damage the ceramic.

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

ATTENTION: MOST IMPORTANT!
If cleaning the glass ceramic hob
using a special scraper tool take extra
care to avoid damaging the seal at the
edges of the glass ceramic surface.

14

Attention: the oven door becomes
very hot during operation.

Keep children away.

4 - MULTI-FUNCTION MAIN OVEN

GENERAL FEATURES

The multi- function oven can be pro­gramed for 7 different functions to satis­fy every cooking need.

The 7 positions are thermostatically con­trolled and are obtained by a combina­tion of 4 heating elements which are:

– Bottom element 1400 W
– Top element 1000 W
– Grill element 2000 W
– Circular element 2500 W

NOTE:

Upon first use, it is advisable to operate the
oven for 30 minutes in the position and
for another 30 minutes at maximum (tem­perature knob on 250°C) in the positions

and

, to eliminate possible traces of
grease on the heating elements.
Clean the oven and accessories with warm
water and washing-up liquid.

WARNING:
The door is hot, use the handle.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Heating and cooking in the MULTI­FUNCTION oven are obtained in the fol­lowing ways:

a. by normal convection

The heat is produced by the upper and
lower heating elements.

b. by forced convection

The circular heating element and fan
constantly circulate heated air over the
food in the oven for a more rapid and
even cooking process. It is possible to
cook several dishes simultaneously.

c. by semi-forced convection

The heat produced by the upper and
lower heating elements is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.

d. by radiation

The heat is irradiated by the infra red
grill element.

e. by radiation and ventilation

The irradiated heat from the infra red
grill element is distributed throughout
the oven by the fan.

f. by ventilation

The food is defrosted by using the fan
only function without heat.
