Important Notes
• Please note:
• Electric hobs become hot and remain hot during and immediately after
use. We strongly advise that you do not touch the hob until it has been
allowed to cool. If wiping away a spillage, please take every care not
to burn yourself.
• Keep children away from the appliance when in use.
• Never use the hob top for storage.
• Pan handles should never stand out beyond the edge of the worktop.
This will help to ensure children cannot reach them.
• Do not switch on the hotplates without cookware in place (unless
following step 5 on page 9).
• Do not lean over the hob when it is in use.
• Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
• Ensure the base of the saucepan is clean and dry before placing it on
the hob.
• After use, please ensure that the control knobs are in the ‘O”
position.
• This hob (Class 3) has been designed for use only as a cooking
appliance. Any other use (e.g. heating rooms) should be considered
incorrect and therefore dangerous.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by any means of an
external timer or separate remote-control system.

HOTPLATE SWITCHES:
The power of each hotplate can be varied using the control knob to
select the required heat.
The table below shows the heat at each of the 6 settings:
The ‘OFF’ position is indicated by the symbol ‘0’.
The indicator will light when the hotplate is in use.
When you have finished cooking, check to ensure that the hotplates
are o and the indicator is not lit.
Before using your hob for the first time, switch the hotplates on
for a FEW SECONDS to burn o any grease left over from the
manufacturing process.
Avoid touching on or near the hotplates for some time after cooking
as these areas will remain hot. Please note that leaving pans in place
on the hotplates after cooking will mean that the plates and hobtop
are hotter for longer.
Heat setting Description Recommended use
1 Very gentle Stewing vegetables
2 Gentle Boiling potatoes
3 Slow Cooking soups or casseroles
4 Medium Slow roasting or frying
5 High Frying meat or fish
6 Very high Boiling, quick heating, intense frying

Ecient Use Of Your Hob
The hob is equipped with hotplates of dierent sizes, designed to
accommodate most shapes and sizes of pan. For best results, only
use pans with flat bottoms and choose an appropriate hotplate
depending on the size of the pan. The most ecient use of the hob is
shown below, where the pan and hotplate are correctly chosen.
Use pan lids where possible to minimize the energy usage of your
appliance.
Turn o each hotplate a few minutes before the end of cooking time.
The residual heat in the hotplate will continue to cook the food for the
remaining cooking time. This will also help preserve the look of your
appliance.
The table below shows the sizes of pan that should be used with each
hotplate:

Care and Maintenance
The hob has a stainless steel surface. Due to this you should use a
non-abrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch
the surface and could erase the control panel markings. Stainless steel
can be eectively cleaned by simply using a dilute solution of water and
washing up liquid and drying to a shine with a clean cloth.
Over time with use, the stainless steel surface may discolour; this is
normal and does not constitute a fault with this appliance. Proprietary
stainless steel cleaners are available.
IMPORTANT:
Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliances.
HOTPLATE CARE:
The finish of the cast iron hotplates is designed to be durable in use. The
following tips should be observed to get the best from your hob:
1. Do not use decorative covers; these can cause damage to the
surface and lead to rust.
2. Use a special hotplate surface cleaner to protect and restore the
surface of the hotplates.
3. Do not use soap and water on the hotplates. Wipe up spills and
splashes immediately but take extreme care not to burn yourself.
4. Never operate the hob without a pan, unless it is for a few seconds
(as below).
5. Deposits of fat can be burned o by turning the hotplate on for a few
seconds. The fat will brush o when the appliance has cooled down.
