How to use your Ceramic Hob
HOW TO USE THE COOKER
TOP
The main characteristic of this pyroceram
cooker top is that it permits rapid vertical
transmission of the heat from the heating
elements below to the saucepans on top.
The heat does not spread horizontally,
therefore the glass stays cold only a few
centimetres from the hob.
The cooking plates are shown by dark
disks on the ceramic surface.
Check that the hob is clean and then
switch on by turning the control knob
(fig. 10).
When the top is working, the pilot light
will be on.
When the hob temperature is above
60°C, the corresponding indicator light
will come on to indicate that the hob is
hot.
This light will stay on even after the hob
has been switched off to indicate that the
hob is still hot.
The residual heat persists for some time
after the hob has been switched off.
During this time avoid touching the hob
and take particular care if there are chil-
dren nearby.
The light will go out automatically when
the hob temperature drops below 60°C.
