HOW TO USE YOUR COOKING HOB
Hilight (radiant) cooking zones
Cooking zones turn red within 10 seconds after they
have been switched on. They become red and then
dark again while they are in use (refer to the ”Cooking
Guides” chapter).
Each cooking zone is protected by a temperature
limiter that switches it off if it overheats (for example
operation with nothing on it).
To switch a zone on:
•
Turn the knob towards the right or the left.
•
Put the knob to the maximum position for a few
seconds, and then move it to the selected setting
and the ”On” light comes on.
To switch a zone off:
•
Turn the knob to the ”0” position.
The ”On” light goes off, unless another zone is
switched on.
The ”hob on” light
The ”On” light comes on when you turn one of the
cooking zone knobs. It goes off when all zones are
switched off.
Safety
•
Each zone has a residual heat light (safety
indicator). This light comes on when the element
is hot. When you switch a zone off, the light
remains on as long as there is a risk of the heat
released bytheelement causing a burn(even ifthe
zone is no longer red). This will not indicate
residual heat if there is a power cut.
•
We recommend that young children should not be
allowed to come close to the appliance until these
lights have all gone off.
•
Never put anything on the cooking hob that could
melt (utensils with plastic handles, aluminum foil,
food containing sugar, etc.); clean immediately
following an accident.
•
If the hob is damaged or cracked, disconnect the
cooker from the electricity supply and contact your
local Service Force Centre.
•
Never leave a cooking zone switched on if there is
no pan on it.
