User Information
Please note:
• Ceramic hobs become hot and remain hot during and immediately
after use. Do not touch the hob until it has been allowed to cool.
• Keep children away from the appliance when in use.
• Never put cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface
when the hob is hot. These materials could melt and cause damage
to the hob.
• Never use the hob top for storage.
• Pan handles should never stand out beyond the edge of the
worktop. This will help ensure children cannot reach them.
• Do not use pans with rough bases (e.g. cast iron) as these may
scratch the hob surface.
• Do not switch on the zones without cookware in place.
• 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 to prevent damage to the surface of 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.
Important
• Do not use the hob if the glass surface is cracked or damaged, to
prevent risk of electric shock. Disconnect it from the power supply.

How to Use the Hob
The ceramic surface of the hob allows
fast transmission of heat vertically from
the heating elements under the glass to
the pans on the hob top.
The heat does not spread horizontally,
so the hob top remains relatively cool
only a few centimetres from the zone in
use.
Please note:
The heating elements are equipped
with a temperature limiter that will
switch the element o to prevent
damage to the hob.
The temperature limiter may also operate when incorrect pans
are used or pans are poorly positioned. This will aect cooking
performance.
The temperature limiter can be seen in the zone as the straight line
out from the centre of the element. This is not a fault with the hob.
To switch the hob on:
Touch and hold until the zone displays show “0”.
