Some switching ON and OFF when cooking

at high temperatures, e.g. deep fat frying is

quite normal, causes no damage to the hob

and little delay in cooking times.

Excessive switching may however be

caused by the use of an unsuitable

saucepan or a saucepan which is smaller

than the heated area. If excessive switching

occurs, discontinue use of the saucepan.

Hints and tips

• Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and

off the hob. This will reduce the risk of

scratches and metal marks from

saucepans with aluminium bases. Metal

marks can be easily cleaned off

providing they are not allowed to burn

on.

• 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.

• Never leave the hotplates ON when not

covered with a saucepan.

• Ensure that the hob and saucepans are

clean and dry before the start of cooking

to reduce cleaning.

• Follow the cleaning instructions very

closely to keep the hob looking like new.

If spillage occurs with sugar

solutions, e.g. jams and syrups, it

must be wiped from the hob before it

sets and becomes hard otherwise

damage to the hob will occur.

Hot hob indicator

The ceramic hob is fitted with a hot hob

indicator light which illuminates when the

hob is too hot to touch. The light will go OFF

when the hob has cooled.
