Ceramic hob cooking zones
To switch on a cooking zone, turn the relevant
control knob clockwise to the required heat setting.
The control knob is numbered 0 - 3
0 - OFF
3 - Maximum.
The hob has two types of cooking zones:
3 normal cooking zones
We recommend the plates are switched to maximum
(3) for a short while to boost the cooking zone, and
then adjusted to the required setting.
1 double circuit cooking zone (back right)
The back right cooking zone has two heating
elements.
To switch on the smaller circular cooking zone, turn
the relevant control knob clockwise to the required
heat setting.
To switch on both heating elements, turn the control
knob clockwise to maximum heat setting (3) then
turn the knob further to nearly reach the "0" symbol.
You will hear a "click" and the wider cooking zone
will switch on.
Then turn back the knob to position 3 and adjust
it to the required heat setting.
Please consider that the two heating elements will
now operate together, giving a higher power output
than a normal cooking zone.
Residual heat indicators
The hob is fitted with four residual heat indicators
corresponding to each cooking zone.
The corresponding indicator will remain on until the
temperature falls below 30° C, even after the cooking
zone is switched off.
When switch on a cooking zone, a short
buzzing may be heard. This is quite normal
and does not affect the hob operation in any
way.

If scratches or cracks are noticed, disconnect
the cooker from the electrical supply and call
you nearest Zanussi Service Force Centre.
Keep all objects and materials which can
melt away from the cooking surface, e.g.
plastics, aluminium foil.
Care should be taken when preparing food or
drinks containing sugar. If anything of this
