CLEARANCES:
Installation clearances and protection of combustible surfaces shall comply with
page 4.
This cooktop has been designed and constructed in accordance with the following
codes and specifications:
AS/NZS 60335-1 General Requirements for Domestic electrical appliances
AS/NZS 60335-2-6 Particular Requirements for Domestic electrical cooking appliances
AS/NSZ 1044 Electromagnetic Compatibility Requirements.

4
The installation shall comply with the dimensions in Figures 1 and 2, bearing in
mind that:
■A minimum clearance of 30 mm has to be kept between the bottom of
the cooking hob and the top of an appliance or a thermal barrier (see next
page).
■Overhead clearances - In no case shall the clearance between the highest
part of the hob and a range hood be less than 600 mm.
Any other downward facing combustible surface less than 600 mm above
the highest part of the hob shall be protected for the full width and depth
of the cooking surface area. However, in no case shall this clearance to any
surface be less than 450 mm.
■Side clearances - Where the dimension from the periphery of the nearest
burner to any vertical combustible surface is less than 200 mm, the surface
shall be protected to a height of not less than 150 mm above the hob for
the full dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area.
■Protection of combustible surfaces - The required protection shall ensure
that the surface temperature of the combustible surface does not exceed
50 °C above ambient. The fixing of 5 mm thick ceramic tiles to the surface
or attaching fire resistant material to the surface and covering with sheet
metal with minimum thickness of 0.4 mm would satisfy this requirement.
Caution:
The underside surface of the cooking hob can reach a temperature
exceeding 95 °C during normal use.
If after installation the underside surface is accessible through under-
bench cupboard doors and the like, it is essential that a rigid barrier is
installed so that such access is restricted. In order to avoid a hazard the
barrier must be of low thermal conductivity material installed according to
the instructions for installation.

THERMAL BARRIER INSTALLATION:
Warning:
■If the hob is installed over drawers or cupboards, a thermal protec-
tion barrier must be fitted at least 30 mm beneath the base of the
hob (see Figure 3).
Note:
1. Above not applicable if hob is mounted directly above an oven
2. For access to the hob for servicing or installation, ensure that the barrier can
be removed from beneath by the use of a tool.
3. A gap of 20 mm may be allowed at rear for electrical connection and
ventilation.

■Important: Before using the hob for the first time, it is necessary to burn off
the appliance to dry off the plates and remove any protective coatings that may
still be on the plates. To do this, boil a saucepan of water on each plate for
about 10 minutes. There may be a strong odour and a light smoke visible dur-
ing this process. This will cease when the process is complete.
1. Make sure that all the controls are turned to zero.
2. Switch on the electricity.
3. Turn the knob for the ring you require. The element will become hotter as you
select a higher number. A little practice will help you to estimate the setting
required for different purposes.
4. Always use a flat bottomed saucepan which has a base as similar to the
diameter of the hotplate as possible. Ensure that the bottom of the pan you are
using is dry.
5. Never switch the hotplate on without any saucepans on top. This will cause
heat to travel along the spillage tray causing the control panel to heat up and
may also cause subsequent damage to adjacent worktops.
Figure 10
■Never cook food directly on the hotplate: always use a pan or suitable
container.

13
COOKING HINTS:
■Be careful not to place any wet or steamed up lids on an unused hotplate,
as this will lead to rust.
■Pans should have a thick flat base to be effective. Check the base of the
pan with a ruler. It should be either the same size or slightly larger than the
hotplate.
■The plates with a red dot in the middle heat up 30% faster than those with-
out.
■Do not use decorative covers over the hotplates as these hold condesation
and could be dangerous if the hob was accidentally turned on.
■Using pans with tight fitting lids when cooking reduces cooking time and
saves energy.
■Turn the heat off a short time before you finish cooking and the residual
heat from the hotplate will finish the cooking for you.
■ Never have handles overhanging the worktop - they can easily be caught and
overbalance; similarly, never have the handles overlapping other hotplates that
are in use.
■It is always worthwhile buying good saucepans for the best results from
your hob.
Warning:
■HOBS BECOME VERY HOT WITH USE, AND RETAIN THEIR HEAT FOR A
LONG TIME AFTER COOKING HAS FINISHED. CHILDREN SHOULD BE
SUPERVISED AT ALL TIMES AND BE PREVENTED FROM TOUCHING THE
HOT SURFACES UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE APPLIANCE HAS COOLED.
The table below shows recommended heat settings for cooking different types of
food with your electric hob:
HEAT POSITION DESCRIPTION RECOMMENDED COOKING
1 Very Gentle To keep food warm
2 Gentle Stews, cream sauce
3 Slow Frozen food, boiling water
4 Medium Boiling potatoes, soup, vegetables, fish
5 High Large stews, omelettes
6 Fast Steaks, escalops, frying

14
■Please note that these are only guidelines, you will quickly learn from experi-
ence which setting is correct for your needs.
ECONOMIC COOKING
■The electric plate retains heat, so you may find that you can switch off the
heat 5 minutes before you finish cooking.
■To reduce the cooking time, the plate can be set to the maximum setting at
the beginning. It can then be reduced later.
■Before you begin cleaning you must ensure that the hob is switched off.
■Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the
appliance thus make it unsafe.
■Deposits of fat on the electric hotplates can be removed by turning on the
hob for a few seconds. The fat will dry out, and can be brushed off when
the plate is cool. If staining remains, special cleaners for electric plates can
be purchased to return the plate to it’s original colour
■Electric hotplates are made of cast iron and though durable, will rust if mois-
ture is left on them regularly. Do not place wet lids from other pans onto an
unused hotplate. From time to time, apply a thin coat of special hob cleaner.
Enamelled parts - mod. DEH60W
■All the enamelled parts must be washed only with a sponge with soapy
water or other non-abrasive products.
■Dry carefully.
Stainless steel hob - mod. DEH60S
■Clean with special products which are available on the market.
■Dry preferably with a microfibre or soft cloth.
