HINTS FOR SAFE USE OF THE HOBS
Before switching on, check which knob controls the required cooking zone. You are
advised to place the saucepan on the hob before switching on and to take it off after
switching off.
To switch on, always lightly press the control knob then turn it.
Use saucepans with an even flat bottom (be careful of cast iron saucepans). Uneven
bottoms can scratch the pyroceram surface. Check that the bottom is clean and dry.
The diameter of the pan should match that of the cooking zone (or be slightly bigger)
to make the most of the energy.
– Pots with aluminium bottoms may leave silver streaks or spots on the hob.
– Do not leave wet or damp lids on the hob.
Do not use the top if the surface is broken or damaged.
– If you note a crack in the cooktop, switch the appliance off immediately and call
the AVANTI After-Sales Service.
Do not bend over the hobs when they are on.
Do not leave aluminium foil, greaseproof paper etc. or plastic on the hob when it is
hot.
Remember that the hobs stay hot for quite a long time (approx. 30 min.) after they
have been switched off.
Scrupulously follow the cleaning instructions.
–Do not drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass ceramic cooktop.
Never cook the food directly on the glass ceramic cooktop, but in special pans or
containers.
RESIDUAL HEAT WARNING LIGHT
IMPORTANT
When the ceramic hob is working, the pilot light in the control panel (pos. 10 of fig. 1.2)
will be on.
When the hob temperature is above 140 °F (60 °C), the corresponding warning light in
the control panel (fig. 2.6 - pos. 9 of fig. 1.2) will come on to indicate that the hob is hot.
This light will stay on even after the hob has been switched off to indicate that the hob
is still hot.
The residual heat persists for some time after the hob has been switched off.
During this time avoid touching the hob and take particular care if there
are children nearby.
The light will go out automatically when the hob temperature drops below 140 °F
(60 °C).

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 difficult for children to reach the
cooking vessels.
