Using the Hob
The Hotplates
To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control
knob to the required heat setting.
The control knob is numbered 1 – 3 with seven
positions.
0 - OFF
•
- Minimum
3 - Maximum.
The hob has two types of hotplates:
Rapid Hotplate (Front left)
The rapid hotplates will heat up more quickly
than a normal plate.
Normal Hotplates
We recommend the plates are switched to
maximum (3) for a short while to boost the plate,
and then adjusted to the required setting.
It is important to note that the plate may
smoke a little and produce a slightly
unpleasant odour when used for the
first time. This is quite normal and will
disappear after a few minutes.
Suggestions for the correct setting of the plates
are given in the following table.
