Using the glass ceramic hob
! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of
grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we
recommend you remove these with a special non-
abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours
of use there may be a smell of rubber which will
disappear very quickly.
Switching the cooking zones on and off
To switch on a cooking zone, turn the corresponding
knob in a clockwise direction.
To switch it off again, turn the knob in an
anticlockwise direction until it is in the "0" position.
If the ACTIVE HOTPLATE ON indicator light is lit,
this shows that at least one hotplate on the hob is
switched on.
Cooking zones
The hobs have been provided with radiant electric
heaters. These heaters are incorporated under the
surface of the hob as zones which redden while they
are in use.
A. Cooking area
B. The residual heat indicator
light: this indicates that the
temperature of the
corresponding cooking zone
is greater than 60°C, even when the heating element
has been switched off but is still hot.
Cooking zones with heating elements
The radiant heating elements are composed of
circular heating elements. They only become red
after being turned on for 10-20 seconds.
! Do not stare directly at the halogen heating elements.
Turn the corresponding knob in a clockwise
direction, to a position between 1 and 6.

Practical advice on using the hob
• Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that
they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone.
• Always use pans with a diameter that is large
enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use
all the heat produced.
• Always make sure that the base of the pan is
completely clean and dry: this ensures that the
pans adhere perfectly to the cooking zones and
that both the pans and the hob last for a longer
period of time.
• Avoid using the same cookware that is used on
gas burners: the heat concentration on gas
burners may have warped the base of the pan,
causing it not to adhere to the surface correctly.
• Never leave a cooking zone switched on without a
pan on top of it, as doing so may cause the zone
to become damaged.
