RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR
The hob also features 5 warning lights
which are connected to the corresponding
plates.
When the temperature of a cooking plate is
above 60°C, the relevant warning light will
also light up to warn of heat on the surface
of the hob.
This light also stay on after the cooking
plate has been switched off to show that
the hob surface is still hot.
This residual heat will lasts for a long time
after the cooking plate has been switched off.
During this time you should avoid
touching the hob surface over the
cooking area.
Please pay special attention to ensure
that children are not allowed near the
hob.
The light will switch off automatically as
soon as the surface temperature of the
cooking plate falls below 60°C.

Caution!
the cooking hob becomes very hot
during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
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 flat 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 off, you can switch
it off 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.
DO NOT USE GLASSWARE ON CERAMIC HOBS.
DO NOT USE PANS WITH ROUGHT CIRCULAR
MACHINED BASE.
