Operation
Electric Hotplates
To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to the required heat
setting.
The control knob is numbered 1 - 3
0 - OFF
1 - Minimum
3 - Maximum.
The hob has two rapid hotplates. The rapid hotplates are indicated by a red dot, and will
heat up more quickly than a normal plate. As the red dots are painted on the plate, they may
deteriorate during use and even disappear completely after a period of time. This will not
affect the performance of the hob.
It is important to note that the plate may smoke and produce a slightly unpleasant odour when
used for the first time. This is quite normal and will disappear after a short while.
For best cooking zone regulation, refer to the
following table.
Boiling
To parboil, select setting 3 and bring the
water to the boil and then turn back to 1 to
finish for boiling; use higher or lower
settings as required.
Frying
Heat up the fat/oil on setting 3, then insert
food to be fried and turn back to 2; use
higher or lower settings as required.
