WARNING:
If the surface is cracked, switch off the
appliance to avoid the possibility of
electric shock.
The ceramic surface of the hob allows a fast
transmission of heat in the vertical direc-
tion, from the heating elements underneath
the ceramic glass to the pans set on it.
The heat does not spread in the horizon-
tal direction, so that the glass stays “cool”
at only a few centimeters from the cooking
plate.
The 4 cooking zones are shown by painted
disks on the ceramic surface.
Check that the cooker top is clean.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The heating elements incorporate a ther-
molimiter that switches ON/OFF the ele-
ment in all settings to protect any overhea-
ting of the ceramic glass.
The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong
pan positioning will cause the temperature
limiter to operate more frequently, resulting
in a reduction of cooking performance.
“HI-LIGHT” RADIANT ZONES
The heating element (g. 3.2) is formed of
a coil of resistant material which reaches
the working temperature quickly.
Operation of the cooking zone is controlled
by a continuous energy regulator from 1to
12 (maximum temperature) (g. 3.1).
