Instructions for the User
Pan bottoms must be very thick and perfectly flat,
and they and the hob must be clean and dry.
Never use cast iron or rough-bottomed pans
since they might scratch the cooking surface.
The diameter of the pan bottom must be the
same as the diameter of the ring on the cooking
zone; otherwise, energy will be wasted.
6.5 Barbeque
You can use the barbeque section for grilling,
gratiné dishes or as a barbeque.
The tank underneath the heating element can be
filled with:
water (Fig. 1) to collect cooking fat and grease
(do not place more than one and a half litres of
water in the tank), or;
a layer of lava rock which retains the heat for
longer, improving cooking times and quality.
In both cases, do not fill above the rim of the basin.
Before pouring water or lava rock into the tank,
secure the heating element as shown in fig. 2.

WARNING: when raised, the movable heating element must always be
locked in position with the sliding fixture provided.
WARNING: before raising the heating element, make sure it is cold. Risk
of burns!
WARNING: when the heating element is raised, take care not to turn on
the control device. Risk of burns!
The barbeque heat level is regulated using the
control knob, turning it to the setting required
between 1 and 9.
Setting is on a gradual scale, so all the intermediate
positions between the numbers can be used. The
light comes on to indicate that the barbeque is
heating up. This light goes out when the set power
level is reached.
