USING THE HOB
Please Note: SB431 Green Timer will differ from the one shown in the diagram.
· To operate the hotplates turn the control knobs in
either direction to vary the heat setting.
· The highest number represents the hottest
setting and the lowest number represents the
coolest setting. Choose a setting appropriate to
the quantity and type of food to be cooked.
· To operate the dual hotplate, turn the control
knobs clockwise for full area or anti-clockwise for
the centre section.
RECOMMENDED SAUCEPANS
For speed and economy only good quality saucepans
with flat bases and close fitting lids are
recommended.
The saucepan base should cover the hotplate as
much as possible. A base diameter of up to 225mm
(9”) may be used on a 180mm (7”) hotplate.
Pressure cookers, preserving pans, etc., should
comply with the recommendations given above.
Traditional round bottomed Woks must not be used
even with a stand. Woks with flat-bottomed bases
are available and do comply with the above
recommendations.
HINTS AND TIPS
· Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the
hob to help reduce scratches and maintain the
efficiency of the hotplates.
· Avoid placing fish kettles or large preserving
pans across two hotplates as this may cause
damage.
· Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan
manufacturer, particularly those relating to
recommended heat settings.
· Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted
saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not
be used.
· To prolong the life of the hotplates:
· Never use utensils with a skirt, e.g. a bucket.
· Never use an asbestos mat.
· Never line the spillage tray with foil.
· Never leave the hotplates ON when not
covered with a saucepan.
· For full details on deep fat frying and preserving
refer to instructions on page 15.
