ELECTRIC HOTPLATES

To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant
control knob to the required heat setting.

The control knob is numbered 0 – 6

0 – OFF

1 – Minimum

6 – Maximum.

The hob has two types of hotplates:

Normal Hotplates

We recommend the plates are switched to
maximum (6) for a short while to boost the
plate, and then adjusted to the required setting.

Rapid Hotplate (Front right)

The rapid hotplate indicated by a red spot, will
heat up more quickly than a normal plate.

Over a period of time the red spot may
disappear, this will not affec t the
performance of the hotplate.

It is important to note that the
hotplate may smoke and produce a
slightly unpleasant odor when used for
the first time. This is quite normal and will
disappear after some time.

Main pilot light

This light will illuminate when the oven

function control knob is set or the hotplate

control knobs are turned on and remain lit
while these are in use.

Do not put anything on the hob that

is liable to melt.

HINTS AND TIPS

Saucepans for use on solid plates should have
several characteristics:

- They should be fairly heavy duty

- They should fit the heat area exactly, or

be slightly larger for efficient use, NEVER

smaller.

- They should have a flat base to ensure

good contact with the plate.
This is particularly important when using
pans for high temperature frying or

pressure-cooking.
As soon as liquid starts boiling, turn down the
plate control knob so that it will barely keep the
liquid simmering.
You can switch off the plate a short while
before you finish cooking and the final stage
will be completed on the accumulated heat.
Similarly, stews etc. cooked in well-covered
saucepans cook at lower temperature, which is
more economical.

Ensure pans are large enough to
avoid liquids being spilt into the plates.
Never leave the plates on without a pan on
them or with an empty pan on them.

Take care never to lean on r each over
a hot electric plate. Always point pan
handles inward or over the work surface
next to the hob to avoid accidentally
knocking over a pan as yo u pass b y.

Take care when frying food in hot oil
or fat, as the overheated splashes could
easily ignite.

If the control knobs become difficult
to turn, please contact your local Service
Force Centre.

Before the first use ensures that the
room is well ventilated: V.M.C. (Mechanic
ventilation) or opened window.

Remove all packaging, both inside

oven.

Before first use, the oven should be heated
without food. During this time, an
unpleasant odor may be emitted. This is
quite normal.

1. Remove the oven accessories.

2. Remove any adhesive labels or

protective films, if there are any.

3. Heat the oven the oven function knob

on position “250” for about 45 min.

This procedure should be repeated with the

has been added. Rinse and dry carefully.

The electric oven is equipped with 3 heating
elements:

- 2 heating elements (1 top and 1

bottom) for using the oven.

- 1 heating grill element, placed in the
middle of top for grilling with the oven door

During cooking, the oven door is

hot. Take care that children do not play
near it.
