Ceramic Hob
The Working of the Heating Zones
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.
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.
