RADIANT HOTPLATES (fig. 18)
■ The heating element is formed of a coil of resistant material which reaches
the working temperature quickly.
■ It is controlled by a continuous energy regulator switch from 1 (minimum
position) to 12 (maximum temperature) (fig. 17).
■ Turn the control knob clockwise. The light on the control panel will be lit
when the hotplate is in use.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The heating elements incorporate a thermolimiter that switches the element ON/OFF
during all settings to protect the ceramic glass from overheating.
The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong pan positioning will cause the temperature
limiter to operate more frequently, resulting in a reduction of cooking performance.
