Glass Ceramic Cooktop
The glass ceramic cooktop has four heating
zones. Its surface is flat and there are no edges
where food remains usually collect. Pots can be
easily moved across the hob.
x The heating zone reaches the preset
temperature quickly, yet the area around the
hot cooking zone remains cold.
x The hob is resistant to temperature changes.
x The ceramic hob is impact resistant. A dish can
be placed on the hob a little harder and yet the
surface will not be damaged.
x Never use the ceramic hob as a working
surface. Sharp objects may scratch it.
x Preparation of food in aluminum or plastic
dishes on hot cooking plates is not allowed. Do
not place any plastic objects or aluminum foils
upon the cooktop surface.
x Do not prepare coffe in small traditional coffe
pots if the diameter of the pot is smaller than
the cooking area as it may result in damage.
WARNING!
x Never use a cracked or broken ceramic hob.
The hob may break or crack if an object with
sharp edges falls on it. The crack may be
visible immediately or only after some time.
Disconnect the appliance from mains
immediately in case any cracks are detected
upon the glass ceramic surface.
x If you spill sugar or any other sweet substance,
wipe the hob immediately, with cloth or use a
scraper even when the cooking area is still hot.
This will prevent damage to it.
x Never use ordinary cleaning agents for cleaning
the ceramic glass cooktop, as may damage the
ceramic glass surface.

Setting of Cooking Zones
The cooking zones are controlled by knobs
mountedl on the control panel of the cooker. The
heating degrees are marked on the knobs from 1
to 6 (gradual increase), or 1-9 (continuous
increase), whereby position 1 is the lowest and
position 6 or 9 respectively the highest setting.
The heating is switched off in position 0. The
intermidiate settings can also be selected and set
in two ways: in stages or continuously. The knob
can be turned in both directions. Energy knobs
increase power if turned clockwise and decrease
if turned in opposite direction.

The Circuit and Extended Circuit
Switch
During normal turning of this knob, the basic plate
is switched on first (inner circuit). To switch on the
second and the extended circuit, turn the knob till
the double circuit mark until “click” is heard
and than turn it back to selected position.
To switch off the complete plate, simply turn the
knob back to position 0.

Warning lamps "HOT"
Glass ceramic cookplates are equipped with
warning lamps "HOT". The lamp, switched on at
any particular time, signals that the relevant
cookplate is hot (danger of burns). When the
cookplate is switched off, the lamp remains on
until the temperature of the cookplate falls below
50qC.

Instructions for use, mounting and connection 7
Pots and Pans
Use only high quality pots with flat and stable
bottom.
x Always be careful to put the pot in the middle of
the cooking zone.
x If you use the pots made of temperature
resistant glass or earthenware, always consider
the manufacturer's instructions.
x If you use a pressure cooker, never leave it
unattended. Select the highest temperature
setting, wait until the correct pressure is
reached in the pressure cooker and turn the
knob to a lower setting, as recommended by
the manufacturer of the pot.
x When using high radiation (bright metal
surface) crockery, or thick bottom dishes for
preparing food on the glass ceramic hob, the
period of reaching the boiling point may be
prolonged for certain time (up to 10 minutes).
Consequently, if you need to boil considerable
amount of liquid, it is recommended to use the
dark, flat bottom pot.
The cooker top can be damaged if:
x switched on and left uncovered or with an
empty pot on it,
x if you use pots with an inadequate bottom like
uneven, rough or too small diameter bottoms
(traditional coffee pan).
x Never use the earthenware pots as they are
very likely to scratch the ceramic glas surface.
x Before putting the pot on the hot plate,
thoroughly wipe the bottom of the pot, to
prevent heat conduction and to protect the hot
plate.
Energy Saving Tips
x The bottom of the pot should be slightly
concave for optimum heat transfer from the
cooking zone.
x The bottom of the pot should always suit the
size of the cooking zone. If the pot is smaller, it
can cause energy loss and if larger, the cooking
zone may become damaged.
x Use a pot lid whenever possible.
x The pot size should suit the quantity of food.
Cooking smaller quantities of food in a large pot
results in energy loss.
x Food which needs longer cooking may also be
prepared in the pressure cooker.
x Various vegetables, potatoes, etc. can be
cooked with a smaller quantity of water. This
way the food is cooked much sooner, but do
not forget to cover the pan properly. When the
water starts boiling, turn the knob to the position
for slow boiling.
x Some 5-10 minutes before the food is cooked,
switch off the hot plate , whichever you are
using.

Cleaning and maintenance of ceramic-glass hob
Ceramic glass hob should be cleaned only when
completely cooled down, preferably after each
use, otherwise even the slightest stains remaining
after cooking may burn into the hob surface with
each following use.
For regular maintenance of ceramic-glass hob
use special cleansing agents, produced in such
way to create protective film upon the surface.
Before each use, wipe the dust and other
particles from the hob - they may scratch the
surface (Fig. 1).
Caution: use of steel wool, abrasive cleaning
sponges, and abrasive detergents can scratch
the surface of the hob. The surface may also be
damaged by the use of aggressive sprays and
inappropriate liquid chemicals (Fig.1 and 2).
Pattern marks can be erased by the use of
aggressive cleansing agents or rough and
damaged cookware bottoms (Fig. 2).
Minor stains are removed with moist soft cloth;
after that the surface should be wiped dry (Fig. 3).
Water stains are removed with gentle vinegar
solution, but you must not wipe the frame with it
(certain models only), since it may lose its glow.
Never use any aggressive sprays or limestone
removers (Fig. 3).
Major stains are removed with special ceramic-
glass cleansers. Follow strictly the manufacturer's
instructions.
Be careful to remove any remains of
cleansing agent from the hob surface,
otherwise they will be heated during the next
use and can damage the hob (fig. 3).
Stubborn and burnt stains are removed with
special ceramic-glass scraper. Be careful,
however, not to touch the hotplate surface with
the scraper handle (Fig. 4).
Handle the scraper with utmost care to avoid
injuries!
Sugar and sugar containing food may
permanently damage the ceramic-glass hob
surface (Fig.5), so the remains of sugar and
sugar containing food must be scraped off from
the hob surface immediately, when the hotplates
are still hot (Fig. 4).
Discoloring of ceramic-glass hob has no effect
whatsoever on its operation and stability. In most
cases, it appears as the consequence of burnt in
food remains, or as a result of dragging pots and
pans (especially aluminum or copper bottom
cookware) across the surface, and such
discoloring is rather hard to remove.
Note: All described faults are mostly esthetical
and do not affect directly the operation of the
appliance. Remedy of such faults is not covered
by warranty.
