How to use the hob
The ceramic surface of the hob allows fast transmission of heat vertically from the heating elements under the glass to the
pans on the hob top.
The heat does not spread horizontally, so the hob top remains relatively cool only a few centimetres from the zone in use.
Please note:
The heating elements are equipped with a temperature limiter that will switch the element off to prevent damage to the hob.
The temperature limiter may also operate when incorrect pans are used or pans are poorly positioned. This will affect cooking
performance.
The temperature limiter can be seen in the zone as the straight line out from the centre of the element. This is not a fault with
the hob.
Using the single zones
The heating element is formed of a coil of resistant material which
reaches the required cooking temperature quickly.
Before using the hob, first check the hob and the pan are clean and
dry, then place the pan correctly on to the zone.
The power level for each zone can be regulated by turning
the control knob to the required level between 0 (off) and 12
(maximum).
The power indicator light will switch on automatically when any of
the zones are in use.
Using the dual zones
The dual zones are formed of two separate coils of resistant
material.
To turn on the dual zone, turn the control knob fully clockwise to
the
position.
Residual heat indicators
The hob is equipped with residual heat indicators which warn when
any of the zones are hot to the touch, both during and after cooking.
A light will show on the display (fig 6 for HVC60/HVC70, fig 7
for HVC90) to indicate a zone is hot until the zone is at a safe
temperature to touch, when the residual heat indicator will the
switch off.
Please note:
You should avoid touching the zones when the hob is in use, or
when the residual heat indicator is on.
In the event of a power cut, the residual heat indicators will
illuminate after the power supply is restored. However, when
there is no power supply to the hob the residual heat indicators will
not work, so extra care must be taken.
