4. USING THE COOKING HOB
4.1 Cooking zones
The appliance features 4 cooking zones of
different diameter and power. Their position is
clearly indicated by circles and the heat given
off is defined by the markings on the glass
surface.
The 4 cooking zones are of the HIGH-LIGHT type and come on after a
few seconds of being activated. Heating intensity can be adjusted by
means of the knobs located on the front panel from a minimum setting of
1 to a maximum setting of 9.
The cooking zones marked by two concentric circles (
) and by a circle
feature double heating either within the inner circle or both circles.
The 4 signal lamps located between the cooking zones come
on when the temperature of one or more of the heating zones
exceeds 60°C.
The lamps go off upon temperature dropping to below approximately
60°C.
Before using the hob for the first time, pre-heat it to the maximum
temperature long enough to burn any manufacturing oily residues which
could give the food unpleasant odours.
For best results and energy saving, only use receptacles suitable for
electric cooking:
• The bases of containers must be very thick,
perfectly flat and clean and dry. The hob must
also be clean and dry.
• Do not use cast iron saucepans or saucepans
with a rough base, as they may scratch the
cooking surface.
• The diameter of the base of the saucepans
must be equal to the diameter of the circle
outlining the cooking zone. If not, energy will
be wasted.
