99) that automatically switches off the heat and sounds an
alarm at the end of the selected time.The double hotplate
can operate with or without programming.
Setting the timer
Touch the sensor +/- sensor for the clock to set
numbers of minute duration required. To change the
timer rapidly, keep your finger on the +/- sensor.
Warning function
When the double hotplate is not switched on, the timer
operates as a warning. If the double hotplate is switched
on after pre-selection has been made, it also acts as a
warning.When the set time has elapsed it will give a
warning signal which can be switched off by operating
one of the sensors.
Stopping the program
Touch the sensor until the minute display reaches 00.
Operation of timer
With the double hotplate active, if a specific time is pre-
selected, it will act as a timer and switch off the double
hotplate once this time has elapsed. An audible signal will

OPERATING
Sensors
The vitroceramic cooking surface is fitted with sensors that are touch-
sensitive and also react to the presence of a reflective object.
The hotplates are operated by touching the corresponding sensors with your
fingers.
Take care to touch only one sensor at a time, otherwise they will not react to
the touch.
Setting up
While the cooking surface is inoperative, the indicators for all sensors are
switched off.
Starting up
Touch the ON/OFF sensor for 3 seconds. The power 0displays will light
up. If no power is selected within five seconds, the hotplate will automatically
switch off and must be switched on again.
Keep the sensors clean and do not place objects on them. The sensors may
misinterpret dirt or objects placed on them as finger contacts.

OPERATING
Selecting power. - /+
Each hotplate has - / +. power sensors. Touching these allows the power to
be adjusted in the range 1 to 9.
To alter the power while the hotplate is on, touch - / +sensors to obtain the
required power level.
Switching off a hotplate. -
Touch the hotplate’s -sensor until it shows 0. If the hotplate is hot, Hwill
light up.
¡Warning!
If a power cut occurs while the residual heat display is on, remember that
when power is restored the display will not reappear even though the
hotplate is still hot.
Residual heat display H.
When activated but with level 0,the corresponding displays shows 0and
H.alternatively.
While a hotplate is still hot but switched off, the display will show H.
Depending on the power that was used, this display may remain on for up to
approximately 30 minutes.
Do not touch the area of the hotplate. THERE IS A RISK OF BURNING.

Hotplate blocking function.
The blocking of the hotplates prevent accidental changes while they are
operating. The initial selections are maintained and the indicators remain
active. The hotplates should be blocked to prevent children from operating
them or to prevent the effects of accidental contact with containers or tools.
Press the blocking sensor until its pilot light comes on.
Unblocking
Touch the blocking sensor until its pilot light switches off.
OPERATING
Double hotplate
The rear right sensors operate a small central circuit . To operate the
outer part, touch the double hotplate sensor until its pilot light comes
on. Switch off by touching the sensor until the pilot light switches off.
Focus hotplate - Model CH18
When the sensors for the rear left are operated, note that only its circular
circuit will operate. To switch on the outer part at the same time, touch the
source hotplate sensor 0 until its control point switches on.
To switch off the focus hotplate, touch the focus hotplate sensor 0 until
the control point switches off.

Automatic programming 9.
(quick heating)
Each control area includes an automatic programming function.
This programming allows the corresponding maximum temperature to be
reached quickly and maintained automatically.
Selection.
Touch the sensor +once to turn on its decimal point, if it is in position 9.
the display will show 9.
Pre-selection is active for 10 seconds to allow the required power level to be
selected.

sound and the decimal point will switch off. The hotplate will continue to
operate normally.
To cancel the automatic programming, touch the -sensor and the decimal
point will switch off.

Safety systems.
In order to protect the electronics, if the control unit detects excessive heat it
will switch off the hotplate closest to the sensors and the letter Hwill appear
on the display.This hotplate can be activated when the temperature of the
electronic unit returns to normal.
Each hotplate is equipped with an interior temperature limiter that switches
off the hotplate if the vitroceramic surface is heated excessively.
Automatic.
If a hotplate is left on accidentally, it will automatically be switched off after a
period of time has elapsed, depending on the power level that has been
selected (level 1- 10 hours, level 9- 1hour).
Important.
If the vitroceramic surface breaks or you notice cracks in it, disconnect the
equipment. Call Kleenmaid Customer Call Centre for service assistance.
If more than one sensor is pressed simultaneously, the keys are blocked.
If all the power levels are at 0, the control is automatically switched off after
5 seconds.
If one or more sensors are pressed for more than 30 seconds (a container or
tools are resting on the sensor), the control will automatically be switched
off and a warning will sound every 30 seconds while the sensor remains
pressed.
SAFETY
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

10
USING PANS
Most stainless steel, enamel, iron,
ceramic and copper pans can be used
on vitroceramic hobs.
Aluminium pans are not recommended
as they may stain the vitreous surface,
unless they have stainless-steel covered
bottoms. (Consult Manufacturer of the
aluminium cookware before using on
the ceramic cooktop)
Hotplates should not be switched on
without a pan on top. The base of the
pan should be flat and dry. Pans that
have been used on gas cookers are not
normally flat and absorb heat poorly.
Make sure that the diameter of the pan
is at least that of the hotplate.
Avoid scraping pans over the
vitroceramic surface, as it may become
scratched. Always lift the pan.
Never use tinfoil or plastic containers.
They will melt and fuse permanently
with the vitroceramic surface.

CLEANING
Clean the vitroceramic surface
frequently, when it is cool. Never use
abrasive products or pads. Clean
with a damp cloth and soapy water.
Once a week, clean thoroughly with
specific products that preserve and
protect vitroceramic hobs. Scrape off
hard stuck dirt with the scraper
(Included in accessory bag).
If sugar (or sugary matter) or plasttic
is accidentally burnt on the hob,
remove at once with the scraper
while still hot. Otherwise the spill
may leave a permanent mark.
Do not use the hob as a work surface.
Be particulary careful with dirt like
soil or dust from vegetables, cleaning
powders, etc. which may scratch the
surface when pans are placed over it.
IMMEDIATELY
SOAP + WATER
