Electric hob

Models with a twin-circuit glass ceramic hotplate provide two
different hotplate configurations: a small hotplate of 700 W and
an extended hotplate of 1800 W, if your appliance works at
230 V.

Operation

Switching on
Connect the small hotplate:
Turn the control knob clockwise to the required setting. The
operation indicator will light up.
Setting 0: Off setting
Setting 1: low power
Setting 9: full power
Connect the extended hotplate:
Turn the control knob clockwise beyond setting 9 and then turn
it the opposite direction to the required setting.
To use the small hotplate again, turn the control knob
anticlockwise to setting 0 and switch on again.
Note: It is recommended to start cooking on full power and
then to use intermediate power levels after a few minutes.

Use pans which are the right
size for each burner.
Do not use small pans on
large burners. The flame must
not touch the sides of the pan.
Switching off
Turn the knob anticlockwise to the Off setting. The residual heat
warning light will switch off once the hob surface has cooled
down.
Residual heat
The electric hob can be switched off slightly before the end of
the cooking time. The residual heat will enable you to continue
cooking for several minutes, thus saving energy.
Warnings
Do not allow liquids to be spilt on the surface of the electric
hob.
Do not cook with wet pans.

Do not use damaged pans,
which do not sit evenly on the
hob. Pans may tip over.
Only use pans with a thick, flat
base.
Do not cook without using a lid
and make sure the lid is
properly fitted. This wastes
energy.
Always centre the pan over the
burner, not to one side.
Otherwise it could tip over.
Do not place large pans on the
burners near the control
knobs. These may be
damaged by the very high
temperatures.
