Operation of the top with the heating area
The ceramic tops can either be standard, or rapid type. This last feature a red mark at their centre
An appropriately selected pan saves energy. A pan should have a thick, flat base with a diameter equal to
the plate diameter as in that case heat is transferred most efficiently.
Advice on the use of cooking tops To save energy and to have a longer life of the ceramic
tops, we advise using pans with flat bottom and with a diameter not less than the diameter of
the tops. Care must be taken that fluids do not spill on the ceramic plates. Never leave the
tops on without pans on them or with empty pans, and never use the tops to heat the plates. Switch on the
plates after having set the pans on them. Once switched off, the plates remain warm for a while, do not
touch. Switch off the heating element before removing the pans
Touch control
• All operations are performed by means of the touch controls on the control panel.
• Each touch control has a corresponding visual display (indicator light).
• You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
Switching on the ceramic hob
• Press the ON/OFF button (fig.1) to switch on the appliance.
• The hob will beep once and all cooking zone indicators will light up briefly. Indicating
that the hob has entered stand-by mode .
Notice: To make the next step within one minute, otherwise the controller will automatically shut
down.
Switching on a cooking zone and setting a power leve
l
• Press the cooking zone select button (fig.2) for the zone you want to use.
• Select the heat level required (1-9) by using the up and down buttons (fig.3). By holding down
either of these buttons, the value on the heat level display will adjust up or down.
Note: when the power displayed 0, press the down button, the power will set to 9
Switching off the ceramic hob
1. Press the ON/OFF button, the hob will switch off. It is possible to turn the hob off at any time
by pressing the ON/OFF button.
2. Press the up or down buttons to 0, then hob will switch off.
After a zone is switched off, the corresponding heat level display will show a flashing letter “H” .
This means that the temperature of the zone is above 60°C and is therefore still high enough to
cause injury.
• When the temperature of the zone falls below 60°C the letter “H” will go out. It is still possible
to burn yourself on a hob zone, even when its temperature has dropped below 60°C.
IMPORTANT: The residual heat indicator will disappear if the mains supply to the product is
cut.
Locking the ceramic hob
To lock the ceramic hob, press the safety lock button (fig.4) while the appliance is switched on.
With the safety lock activated, all buttons on the control panel will be disabled, except the
ON/OFF button. To disable the safety lock feature, press the safety lock button again. And you
are then able to adjust the heat level of any zone on the hob.
Timer
Your hob has a timer which you can set (from 1 to 99 minutes) for each cooking zone. At the
end of the countdown period, a buzzer will sound and the relevant cooking zone will be
switched off.
• Select the cooking zone (fig.2) and heat level (fig.3).
• Press the timer button (fig.5), and then use the up and down buttons to set the countdown
time.
• Each time the timer up or down button is pressed, the timer display will increase or decrease
in 1 minute increments.
Safety cut-off
• If one or more of the cooking zones are accidentally left on, a safety cut-off
will activate after a certain period of time. The length of time depends on the
set power level for that zone. The table on the right gives the time limits for
each power level.
• If more than one zone is operating when one of the zones reaches its safety
cut-off point, only the zone that has reached its safety cut-off point will switch
off.

Utensils
Use pans with flat bottoms. Uneven or thin bottoms will waste energy and are slow to cook.
Use pans slightly larger than the hotplates. Smaller pans will waste energy.
Do not use oversized pans. More than 50mm overhang can overheat cooktop components
and can cause fine cracks in the enamel hob which will trap dirt.
Use only dry utensils. Do not place wet or steamy parts (eg.lids) on the hotplates.
Use
Do not use pots and pans that are unsteady and likely to rock or overbalance.
Do not operate the cooktop tor an extended time without utensil on the hotplate.
