Ceramic Hob
WARNING! If any part of the hob glass is cracked, isolate the
cooker immediately at the wall mounted cooker control unit
and contact your Belling Service Agent. Do not use any part of
your cooker.
Under no circumstances should the hob be used with aluminium
foil in contact with the hob surface, as damage will occur.
The following boiling plates are located beneath the decorative
circular patterned cooking areas:
Front Left 1.2kW
Rear Left 1.5kW
Rear Right 1.2kW
Front Right 1.8kW
The cooking areas change colour (become red) when heated,
indicating which heating element is energised. The cooking area
returns to its original colour after the heating element has been
switched off.
Even though the cooking area has returned to its original colour it
may still be hot.
Halogen elements use a lamp and an inner heating coil together. As
the halogen lamp is very bright when lit, the inner coil may appear
duller (i.e. not working); this is normal and the element is working
properly.
This will operate soon after any of the four boiling plate controls
are turned on, and will remain illuminated until the ceramic surface
has cooled.
The control provides various heat settings by selecting any number
between 1 (minimum) and 6 (maximum).
To reduce the heat to cook more slowly or simmer, turn the knob to
a lower setting which will vary according to size and type of
saucepan, the amount and type of food, and whether or not a lid is
fitted. Pans can be placed on the unheated areas of the panel when
cooking is finished and before serving food. It is inadvisable at any
time to leave a heating element switched on without a pan in
position as this wastes energy, and could make soil or rub-off from
aluminium pans more difficult to remove. To protect elements
against over-heating, safety cut-outs have been incorporated with
each element. After several minutes with the control at setting 6 the
safety cut-out switches the element Off and O n continuously, thus
preventing any adverse effects that may be caused by an excessive
build-up of heat in the cooking area.
The boiling plate will be off when the knob is at position ‘ O’.
