The Working of the
Heating Zones
Choice of
saucepan's
It is essential that the saucepan's you use on the ceramic hob are
suitable.
ALWAYS USE:
● Good quality pans with smooth, flat, heavy bases.
● saucepan's manufactured from aluminium (enamelled or
machined) or stainless steel.
● Correct size saucepan's. The base of the pan must cover the
heating zone completely.
● saucepan's with lids which are well fitting to reduce cooking
time and energy use.
NEVER USE:
● Pans with thin, distorted or uneven bases as these will extend
cooking times, waste electricity and cause damaging, local
hotspots on the glass surface.
● Pans with ridged or recessed bases.
● Pans with damaged or rough bases which could scratch the
glass surface.
● Glass or glass ceramic utensils.
Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones.
The zones heat up and cool down quicker, providing greater
controllability for sensitive foods. Each heating zone is equipped
with a thermal limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the
ceramic glass from overheating. After several minutes at full power
without a pan on the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the
heating elements off and on automatically to avoid any damage to
the ceramic glass.
