Instructions for the User
6.4 Ceramic hob
The appliance is equipped with two cooking zones
having different diameters and powers.
Their positions are clearly marked by rings and
heating only occurs inside the diameters marked on
the hob. The cooking zones switch on after a few
seconds and their temperature is regulated by
turning the knob to the required setting between 1
and 9.
Setting is on a gradual scale, so all the intermediate positions between the
numbers can be used. The lights beside the knobs are residual heat
warning lights. They come on when the cooking zone temperature
exceeds 50° C and go out when it falls below this value. For cleaning
instructions, see point “7.3 Cleaning the ceramic hob”.
