3.8. GLASS CERAMIC WORKTOP
The new design concept heating elements make it possible to reach maximum power in a few
seconds. Furthermore, the ultra-thick fibreglass insulation prevents heat dispersion, limiting
heating to the silk screen-printed zones only. The 4 (or 5) heating zones are controlled by 2
switches and 2 (or 3) energy regulators.
The switch controls power in W, which is pre-defined according to the position set on the knob.
The energy regulator is a device which regulates power gradually according to the position set
on the knob ( % of maximum power). Control of the heating zones is automatic, by activating or
disabling the heating elements at regular intervals, thus ensuring precise, uniform heating. E.g.:
short heating periods and long pauses indicate low temperature; long heating periods and brief
pauses indicate a higher temperature. With the energy regulator, you can totally or partially
heat a particularly zone of the glass ceramic top.
