2. ELECTRIC HOB
(for ceran glass products)
The hot plates are equipped with 2
hi-light heating elements with different
powers and diametres. On the frontal
panel, close to each knob, has been silk-
screened a scheme where is indicated to
which cooking zone the knob refers.
In some particular models the scheme
annexes a light indicator that turns on
when the cooking zome temperature is
above 60°C.
The indicator will turn off only when
the temperature of the cooking zone will
be below the value: thes is the reason why
we call it residual heat indicator. Some
other models they have only one indicator.
Connection of electric heating
elements
Heating elements are controlled by
energy regulators that permit to obtain a
big range of different temperatures.
To connect the heating elements
es necessary to turn clockwise or
anticlockwise the relaive knob. Indicator
light 9 shows the connection of one or
more heating elements.
To connect the heating elements with
double cooking zone is necessary to turn
clockwise the knob to the «Ф1 sign and
release again.
How to use the cooking zones
Heating takes place only in the inside
part of the circles drawn on the special
glass. The circles have to be wholly
covered by the pots.
WARNINGS:
For a correct use, please look at fi g.3
and remind:
BUse pots and pans with fl at solid
bottoms.
BUse pots with the same diameter of
the cooking zones.
BDry the bottom of the pot before put
in on the cooking zones.
BDo not scrape the pot against the
glass so to not damage it.
BDuring the use of the cooking zones,
please, keep the children away from the
hot plates. Cooking zones after using
remain warm; don’t leave objects, don’t
lean your hands so to avoid burns, till
the indicator light is off.
BIf the glass cracks, please, disconnect
the appliance.
BDon’t use plastic pots or alluminium

4. CLEANING
lf you want to preserve the surface
clean and bright, we recommend you
to use a silicone conditioner. The use of
this conditioners, prior to jam-making,
helps to protect the surface of the hob.
It is very important to clean the
surface soon after every use, when the
glass is stili tepid.
Do not use metallic sponges,powder
abrasives or corrosive sprays.
Depending on the dirty level we
recommend:
ÂSlights stains: it is enought the
use of a moist clean rag.
ÂBurnt or soiling may be removed
with a special razor scraper (fi g. 7 ); be
aware that the razor can cause wounds.
ÂMarks of liquid, overfl owed from
the pot, can be removed using vinegar
or lemon.
