THE VITROCERAMIC ZONE

OVEN EQUIPMENT

(According to the model)

Recommendations :
• Never cook food directly on the glass ceramic hob. Always use

the appropriate cookware.

• Always place the pan in the centre of the unit that you are cooking on.
• Do not use the surface as a cutting board.
• Do not slide cookware across the hob.
• Do not store heavy items above the hob. If they drop onto the

hob, they may cause damage.

• Do not store heavy items above the hob. If they drop onto the

hob, they may cause damage.

• Do not use the hob as a working surface.
• Aluminium foil and plastic pans must not be placed on heating

zones.

It is strongly recommended to keep children away from the
cooking zones while they are in operation or when they are
switched off, so long as the residual heat indicator is on, in
order to prevent the risks of serious burns.

It is necessary to do an initial cleaning of the equipment
before the first use of each of them. Wash them with a sponge.
Rinse and dry off.

• THE SHELF : it is for holding
d i s h e s , p l a t e s , a n d m e a t
joints when cooking with the grill.
It is fitted with rails which enables
the drip tray to be slid into.

When the oven is in use, any unused accessories should be removed.

• THE CIRCUIT-BREAKER TIMER

• It takes in charge the functioning of the oven,
for between 1 and 120 minutes, with immediate
start and automatic stop. When the time is up,
the timer automatically cuts off the power supply
to the oven.

• However, the oven could be used without

programming. In this case, turn the control knob to the Hand
position .

Nota : to set a time, turn the control knob clockwise up to the 120
minutes mark and then turn it back to the required time.

Thanks to its special shape, the shelf always remains horizontal,
even when pulled to its fullest extent towards the front of the oven,
thus avoiding the risk of dishes sliding off or tipping over.

• THE DRIP TRAY : collects meat
and grilling juices during grilling.
It can be put on the shelf, or slid
under it. Unless used with the
grill, the drip tray must not be
stored in the oven while in use.
Never use the drip tray as a roasting tray. This would cause smoke
to be produced, fat to be splashed and the oven would become
rapidly stained.

• THE PASTRY TRAY must be
placed on the shelf. It is for
cooking small pastries like choux,
biscuits, meringues, etc...
Never place the pastry tray directly on the oven bottom.

USE

• THE ROTISSERIE is equipped with a skewer and an handle,
two forks and a skewer support.

USE

• Each zone is linked to a residual heat indicator located on the

hob. It lights up when the heat zone temperature reaches 60 C
and above. It will stay on, even if the unit is switched off, until
the surface has cooled down.

• To switch off a heat zone, turn the corresponding control knob

until the position "0".

• Positions : the examples below are intended as a guide. When

you become familiar with using your hob you will be able to
work out the settings that suit you best.

• Locate the sign corresponding to the cooking

zone that you need.

• It is recommended that heat setting is at its

highest until it has properly warmed up and then
lower to the desired cooking setting.

• The power-on indicator light comes on to show

that the heat zone is operating.

ADVICES

The use of high quality utensils is important to obtain good cooking
results :
• Always use good quality cookware with perfectly flat and thick

bases.

• Ensure that the base of the pot or pan is dry.
• Use pans whose diameter is wide enough to completely cover

the surface unit.

CHOOSING UTENSILS

The following information will help you to choose cookware which
will give good performance.

On the label, check the mark that shows if
the pan is compatible with the vitroceramic.

Stainless Steel : highly recommended. Especially good with a
sandwich clad base. The sandwich base combines the benefits
of stainless steel (appearance, durability and stability) with the
advantages of aluminium or copper (heat conduction, even heat
distribution).
Aluminium : heavy weight recommended. Good conductivity.
Aluminium residues sometimes appear as scratches on the hob,
but can be removed if cleaned immediately.
Because of its low melting point, thin aluminium should not be
used.
Cast Iron : usable, but not recommended. Poor performance.
May scratch the surface.
Copper Bottom / stoneware: heavy weight recommended. Good
performance, but copper may leave residues which can appear
as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the hob
is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil
dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass hobs. An overheated
copper pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the hob.
Porcelain/enamel : Good perfomance only with a thinly smooth,
flat base.

THE ZONES

• highlight zone : it is operational within 3 seconds and is suitable

for steady, homogeneous and sustained cooking.

• Sprinter: with the sprinter facility, reduced cooking times of

up to 15% can be achieved.
