The ceramic surface of the hob allows a fast transmission of heat in the vertical direction,
from the heating elements underneath the ceramic glass to the pans set on it.
The heat does not spread in a horizontal direction, so that the glass stays “cool” at only a
few centimeters from the cooking plate.
The cooking zones are shown by painted disks on the ceramic surface.
Before switching on the cooktop make sure that it is clean.
Important note:
The heating elements incorporate a thermolimiter that switches the element ON/OFF
during all settings to protect the ceramic glass from overheating.
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.
The temperature limiter can be seen under the glass dissecting the element. This is not a
fault with the appliance.
“HI-LIGHT” RADIANT ZONES
The heating element (g. 16) 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 ‘1‘ to ‘12‘
(maximum temperature) (g. 15).

RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATORS
The hob also features no.4 warning lamps
which are wired to the corresponding plate.
When the temperature of a cooking plate is
over 60 °C, the warning lamp is also lit-up
to warn of heat on the surface of the hob.
This lamp also stays on after the cooking
plate has been switched o to shown that
the hob surface is still hot.
This residual heat lasts for a rather long
time after the cooking plate has been
switched o.
During this spell of time you should
avoid touching the hob surface over
the cooking plate; please pay special
attention to children.
The lamp will switch o automatically as
soon as the surface temperature of the
cooking plate falls below 60 °C.
COOKING HINTS:
■ To reduce the cooking time, you can
turn the control knob to the max when
you switch the plate on. After a short
time you can set the control knob to
the position required for cooking.
■ You should only use pots and pans
with at bases (pans with the test mark
for glass-ceramic hobs are available
from specialist shops). The diameter
of the pan should match that of the
cooking plate (or be slightly bigger) to
make the most of the energy.
■ Since the cooking surface will stays
hot for a certain time after the plate
has been switched o, you can switch
it o 5 or 10 minutes before the end of
the cooking. The residual heat of the
hob will complete the cooking.
■ To save electricity, use pan lids
whenever possible.
■ Never cook the food directly on the
glass ceramic cooktop, but in special
pans or containers.
DO NOT USE GLASSWARE ON CERAMIC HOBS.
DO NOT USE PANS WITH ROUGHT CIRCULAR
MACHINED BASE.
Caution!
The cooking hob becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
Do not scratch the cooktop with
cutting or sharp objects.
Do not use the glass ceramic surface
as a work surface.

SAFETY HINTS
■ Make sure that the hob is clean before you use it.
■ Always ensure that the base of your saucepan is clean and dry before placing on the
hob.
■ Before switching on make sure that you have the correct knob for the hotplate chosen.
It is advisable to put the pan on the hotplate before switching on and to take it away
after switching o.
■ Use cookware with at and even bottoms (be careful when using cast iron vessels).
Uneven bottoms can scratch the glass ceramic surfaces. Be careful that the bottom is
clean and dry.
■ Pots with aluminium bottoms may leave silver streaks or spots on the hob.
■ Do not leave wet or damp lids on the hob.
■ The glass-ceramic surface and pans must be clean. Carefully eliminate any food
remains (especially containing sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a cleansing agent.
■ Make sure that the handles of cookware do not stick out over the edge of the cooker,
to avoid them being knocked over by accident. This also makes it more dicult for
children to reach the cooking vessels.
■ Do not lean over the cooking zones when they are switched on.
■ Do not drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass ceramic cooktop. If the surface is
broken or damaged unplug the appliance and contact the after-sales service.
■ Do not put aluminium foil or plastic objects on the cooking zones when they are hot.
■ Remember that the cooking zones remain hot for some time after they are switched
o (about 30 mm).
■ Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
■ Never use the glass surface for storage.
■ DO NOT use the hob if the glass surface is broken or cracked in any way.
Please disconnect the appliance from the mains and call the After-Sales Service.
WARNING:
■ HOBS BECOME VERY HOT WITH USE, AND RETAIN THEIR HEAT FOR A LONG
TIME AFTER COOKING HAS FINISHED. CHILDREN SHOULD BE SUPERVISED
AT ALL TIMES AND BE PREVENTED FROM TOUCHING THE HOT SURFACES
UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE APPLIANCE HAS COOLED.
COOKWARE:
It is very important that the pans used on the hobs are made of a suitable material and have
the correct base as follows:
■ The base should be at and smooth.
■ Any rough part on the pan base could scratch the hob surface.
■ Choose pans which are the same size as the hotplates and with bases that are as non
reective as possible, e.g. dull and dark.
Only pans recommended for use on ceramic hobs should be used.
Pans made of the following materials can cause problems:
Cast Iron ■ The base may be rough which will scratch the hob.
Toughened Glass ■ If the pans become too hot, the hob may overheat causing
the safety cut out to operate too frequently thus reducing the
cooking eciency.
Copper ■ Can easily distort and will therefore not form a good contact
between base and hob which will result in uneven cooking.

COOKING WITH ELECTRIC OVEN
NOTE: When using the oven for the rst
time, in order to eliminate any traces of
substances or odours left over from the
production process, switch the oven on
and run it empty (without the accessories,
which should be washed separately),
keeping the installation environment
suciently ventilated:
■ for 60 minutes in the position
(thermostat in position 250 °C);
■ for 15 minutes in the position
(thermostat in position 225 °C).
Smells and fumes produced during this
burn o process are not a cause of alarm.
Adequate ventilation should however be
provided in the room where the appliance is
installed, e.g. by opening a window.
When the oven has cooled down
