Attention
The appliance may be installed and connected to mains by qualified personnel only.
Particular areas of the appliance get hot during operation (vicinity of the heating plates). Make sure children are kept out of reach and warn them accordingly.
Overheated oil may suddenly ignite. Constant monitoring should therefore be assured during the preparation of such dishes that require the use of oil (chips).
Do not leave an empty pan on a heating zone.
Do not use the appliance for room heating.
Do not use the glass ceramic plate as a
working top. Sharp objects may cause scratches.
Do not drag saucepans across the hob surface, as in the long term this will damage the ceramic top.
Do not place saucepan lids on the cooktop surface. Extreme pressure can build up while cooling and cause the ceramic top to crack!
Technical Data
If any other electric appliances are plugged in close to the hotplates, prevent the cord coming into contact with the hotplate.
Do not store any temperature sensitive objects below the hotplates, like cleaners, sprays, etc.
Do not use copper, earthenware or aluminium pots on the cooktop as they may scratch or stain the cooktop. Do not place any plastic objects or aluminium foil upon hot plates.

Glass Ceramic Cooktop
The glass ceramic cooktop has four heating zones. Its surface is flat and there are no edges where food remains usually collect.
The heating zone reaches the preset temperature quickly, yet the area around the hot cooking zone remains cool.
The hob is resistant to temperature changes.
Never use the ceramic hob as a working
surface. Sharp objects may scratch it.
Preparation of food in aluminium or plastic pots or dishes on hot cooking plates is not allowed. Do not place any plastic objects or aluminium foils upon the cooktop surface.
Do not prepare coffee in small traditional coffeepots if the diameter of the pot is smaller than the cooking area as it may result in damage.
Do not use aluminium, earthenware or copper pots or pans as they may scratch or stain the ceramic glass.
Do not place saucepan lids on the cooktop surface. Extreme pressure can build up while cooling and cause the ceramic top to crack!
The ceramic surface is very strong, however, it is not unbreakable. Breakage from excessive force or impact may void warranty.
WARNING!
Never use a cracked or broken ceramic hob. The hob may break or crack if an object with sharp edges falls on it. The crack may be visible immediately or only after some time. Disconnect the appliance from mains immediately in case any cracks are detected upon the glass ceramic surface.
If you spill sugar or any other sweet substance, wipe the hob immediately, with a clean cloth or use a scraper even though the cooking area is still hot. This will prevent damage to it.
Never use ordinary cleaning agents for cleaning the ceramic glass cooktop, as they may damage the ceramic glass surface.

Setting of Cooking Zones
The cooking zones are controlled by knobs mounted on the control panel of the cooker. The heating degrees are marked on the knobs from 1 to 6 (gradual increase), or 1-9 (continuous increase), whereby position 1 is the lowest and position 6 or 9 respectively the highest setting. The heating is switched off in position 0. The intermediate settings can also be selected and set in two ways: in stages or continuously. The knob can be turned in both directions. Energy knobs increase power if turned clockwise and decrease if turned in opposite direction.

Signal lamp
Signal lamp ON (red) is on when at least one cooking plate is switched on.
Warning lamps "HOT"
Glass ceramic cookplates are equipped with warning lamps "HOT". The lamp, switched on at any particular time, signals that the relevant cookplate is hot (danger of burns). When the cookplate is switched off, the lamp remains on until the temperature of the cookplate falls below 50°C.
The Circuit and Extended Circuit Switch
During normal turning of this knob, the basic plate is switched on first (inner circuit). To switch on the second and the extended circuit, turn the knob until the double circuit mark appears “click” is heard and then turn it back to selected position. To switch off the complete plate, simply turn the knob back to position 0.

Pots and Pans
Use only high quality pots with a flat and stable base.
Always be careful to put the pot in the middle of the cooking zone.
If you use the pots made of temperature resistant glass always consider the manufacturer's instructions.
If you use a pressure cooker, never leave it unattended. Select the highest temperature setting, wait until the correct pressure is reached in the pressure cooker and turn the knob to a lower setting, as recommended by the manufacturer of the pot.
When using high radiation (bright metal surface), or thick base pots for preparing food on the glass ceramic hob, the period of reaching the boiling point may be prolonged for certain time (up to 10 minutes). Consequently, if you need to boil considerable amount of liquid, it is recommended to use a dark, flat base pot.
Energy Saving Tips
The inside base of the pot should be slightly concave for optimum heat transfer from the cooking zone.
The base of the pot should always suit the size of the cooking zone. If the pot is smaller, it can cause energy loss and if larger, the cooking zone may become damaged.
Use a pot lid whenever possible.
The pot size should suit the quantity of food.
Cooking smaller quantities of food in a large pot results in energy loss.
Food which needs longer cooking should be prepared in a pressure cooker.
Vegetables should be cooked in small quantities of water. This speeds up the cooking time, especially if the pot is properly covered. Reduce the cooking power when the boiling point is reached.
Switch the hotplate off 5 to 10 minutes prior to the end of cooking.
The cooker top can be damaged if:
Switched on and left uncovered or with an empty pot on it,
If you use incorrect pots with an uneven base, rough or too small diameter base (traditional coffee pan).
Never use aluminium, earthenware or copper pots as they are very likely to scratch or stain the ceramic glass surface.
Before putting the pot on the hot plate, thoroughly wipe the base of the pot dry to provide unobstructed thermal conductivity and to prevent damage to the hotplate.
If you place saucepan lids on the cooktop surface. Extreme pressure can build up while cooling and cause the ceramic top to crack!

Cleaning and Maintenance
The ceramic-glass cooking hob must be cleaned and cared for regularly. Use only reliable and verified cleansing agents, designed specially for ceramic-glass surfaces. Any attempt to use other detergents may result in considerable damage, as they may be too invasive and damage the surface or produce scratches.
Clean the cooktop surface only when cold or at least cooled down, except in case of spilled sugar or strongly sweetened food, as described before. In such case wipe the surface immediately and remove the sugar residues with a scraper although the cooking zone is still hot, or else the hotplate may be damaged beyond repair.
Regular cleaning is extremely simple. Usually it is enough to wipe the ceramic-glass surface with a wet cloth and dry it with a dry napkin before and after use. This will protect the cooktop both before use, by removing any dust and dirt particles that might produce scratches when moving the cookware about, as well as after use, by maintaining it and preventing deterioration. If the ceramic-glass surface is not properly cleaned it may soon lose its natural shine.
Dried stains or discolouring of the cooktop (as a consequence of incorrect detergents or incorrect cookware) may be possibly be removed with verified and reliable detergents, specially designed for ceramic-glass surfaces. Apply the concentrated detergent to the surface. Allow some time penetrate and wipe it off with a wet cloth (except if instructed otherwise by the detergent manufacturer).
CAUTION ! When applied on a hot surface, the cleaning agent may damage the ceramic glass cooktop!
Heavily dried or burnt stains may be removed with a scraper.
The surface may be protected from damage by regularly cleaning the cooktop using the recommended cleaning agents.
Never use sponges previously used for washing the dishes. They usually contain alkaline substances that may result in discolouring the cooktop surface.
