586316
GLASS CERAMIC COOKING SURFACE
- The heating zone will quickly reach the set power or temperature, while the area around
the hot cooking zones will remain cook.
- The hob is resistant to temperature changes.
- Using the glass ceramic hob as a storage area may result in scratches or other damage
to it.
- Do not use aluminium or plastic cookware on hot cooking zones. Do not place any
plastic objects or aluminium foil on the glass ceramic hob.
- Do not use the glass ceramic hob if it is cracked or broken. If a sharp object falls on
the hob, the hob may break. The consequences of such occurrence may be visible
immediately or only after a while. If any visible crack appears in the hob, immediately cut
o the power supply to the appliance.
CONTROL OF THE TWO-RING COOKING
ZONE:
The area of the two-ring cooking zone
can adapt to the size and the form of your
cookware.
To activate the larger heating zone, rotate
the cooking zone knob as far as it will go
(a click will be heard), then set the desired
power level.
RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR
Every cooking zone has a signal light that
lights up when the cooking zone is hot.
When the cooking zone cools down, the
signal light goes out. The residual heat
indicator may also light up if a hot pot or
pan is placed on a cool cooking zone.

17
586316
- Use quality cookware with flat and stable
bottom.
- Pan bottom and cooking zone diameters
should be the same.
- Tempered glass cookware with special
ground bottom may be used on the
cooking zones if its diameter fits that
of the cooking zones. Cookware with
larger diameter may crack due to thermal
tension.
- Make sure the pot or pan is in the middle
of the cooking zone.
- When using a pressure cooker, keep an eye on it until the right pressure is reached.
First, set the cooking zone to maximum power; then, following the pressure cooker
manufacturer's instructions, use the relevant sensor to decrease the cooking power at
the right time.
- Make sure there is enough liquid in the pressure cooker, or any other pot or pan. Due to
overheating, using an empty pot on the cooking zone may result in damage to both the
pot and the cooking zone.
- When using special cookware, observe the manufacturer's instructions.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
- Diameter of the pot and pan bottoms should match the diameter of the cooking zone. If
the pot or pan is too small, a part of the heat will be lost, and the cooking zone may be
damaged.
- If the cooking process allows, use a lid.
- Cookware should be suitably sized given the amount of food. When you cook a small
amount of food in a large pot or pan, more energy is lost.
- If a dish takes a long time to cook, use a pressure cooker.
- Vegetables, potatoes etc. may be cooked in a smaller amount of water. The food will
cook just as well, as long as the pot is tightly closed with a lid. After bringing the water
to boiling, reduce the heat to a level that is just suces to maintain a slow simmer.
TIPS REGARDING YOUR COOKWARE

18
586316
- Correct choice of cookware allows optimum cooking
time and gas consumption. Cookware diameter is the
most important in this respect.
- If a pot or a pan is too small, the flames reaching over
the edge of its bottom will damage it. Moreover, gas
consumption will be higher.
- Combustion of gas also requires air. If the pot or pan
is too large, there is not enough air and the burning
eciency is decreased.
Gas hob reducer (only with some models) Use the gas
hob reducer when cooking in a container of smaller
diameter. Place it on the grid over the auxiliary burner.
Burner type Container diameter
Large (3.0 kW) 220-260 mm
Normal (1.9 kW) 160-220 mm
Auxiliary (1.0 kW) 120-140 mm
Multi-ring burner (3,5kw) 220-260 mm
TIPS REGARDING YOUR COOKWARE
GAS BURNERS
- To sear the food, set the burner to maximum power first, and then continue to cook at
minimum power.
- Always place the burner cap accurately on the burner crown. Make sure the slots in the
burner crown are never blocked.

it to the maximum power position. Press the spark plug button.
Electric spark from the spark plug will be activated and the gas will
ignite.
Electric ignition will only work if the power cord is connected
to the mains power. If electric ignition does not work due to a
power supply failure or damp spark plugs, the gas can still be
ignited with a match or a lighter. After ignition, keep the knob
depressed for approximately 10 more seconds until the flame is
stabilized.
If the burner does not ignite in 15 seconds, close it and wait for at
least 1 minute. Then repeat the ignition process.
If the flame on a burner is extinguished (regardless of the
reason), close the burner and wait for 1 minute before trying to
ignite it again.
