Operating Instructions
Hints and Tips
Important: When ceramic heaters are operated in higher heat settings, the heated areas may be seen
switching on and off. This is due to a safety device which prevents the glass from overheating. This is
normal at high temperatures, causing no damage to the hob and little delay in cooking times.
WARNING:
Never operate the hob without pans on the cooking zone.
Use only flat saucepans with a sufficiently thick base.
Make sure the bottom of the pan is dry before placing it on the hob.
While the cooking zone is in operation, it is important to ensure that the pan is centred correctly
above the zone.
In order to conserve energy, never use a pan with a different diameter to the hotplate being
used.
Do not use pans with rough bottoms since these can scratch the glass ceramic surface.
If possible, always place lids on the pans.
The temperature of accessible parts may become high while the appliance is operating. Keep
children and animals well away from the hob during operation and until it has fully cooled after
operation.
If you notice a crack on the cooktop, it must be switched off immediately and replaced by
authorised service personnel.
