Using the glass ceramic hob

! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of
grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we
recommend you remove these with a special non-
abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours
of use there may be a smell of rubber which will
disappear very quickly.

Switching the cooking zones on and off

To switch on a cooking zone, turn the corresponding
knob in a clockwise direction.
To switch it off again, turn the knob in an
anticlockwise direction until it is in the “0” position.
If the COOKING ZONE ON indicator light is lit, this
shows that at least one pf the cooking zones on the
hob is switched on.

Cooking zones

The hob is equipped with electric radiant heating
elements. When they are in use the following items
on the hob become red.

A. The cooking zone with
radiant heating elements.
B. The residual heat indicator
light: this indicates that the
temperature of the
corresponding cooking zone
is greater than 60°C, even

when the heating element has been switched off but
is still hot.

Cooking zones with radiant heating elements.
The circular radiant heating elements become red 10
- 20 seconds after they have been switched on.

Practical advice on using the hob
• Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that

they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.

• Always use pans with a diameter that is large

enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use
all the heat produced.

• Always make sure that the base of the pan is

completely clean and dry: this ensures that the
pans adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and
that both the pans and the hob remain effective
for a longer period of time.

• Avoid using the same cookware that is used on

gas burners: the heat concentration on gas
burners may have warped the base of the pan,
causing it not to adhere to the surface correctly.

• Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a

pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone
to become damaged.
