ANY ADJUSTMENT, MAINTENANCE, ETC. MUST BE CARRIED OUT
WITH THE HOB UNPLUGGED AT THE MAINS.
The glass-ceramic cooktop permits rapid vertical transmission of heat from the heating element below the
cooktop to the pots or pans placed on top of it. Heat does not spread horizontally, thus at a distance of just
a few centimetres from the cooking zone, the glass remains relatively cool to the touch.
Before cooking for the first time, it is necessary to clean the surface of the appliance. This should be done
using only recommended ceramic hob cleaners. After cleaning, the appliance should be operated in the
following manner to remove any residues or moisture that may be present within the appliance.
Before switching on, check which control (knob or touch) controls the desired cooking zone. It is best to
place the pot or pan on the cooking zone before switching on, and remove it only after switching off.
Never cook food directly on the glass-ceramic cooktop; always use suitable pots or containers.
Do not stare at the halogen lamps on the cooktop.
Absolutely do not leave the electric plates working without any pots on it. These wrong use
may cause overheating, damages to the appliance and fire hazzard.
To switch on the electric plate, turn the knob or set the touch-control to the desired power intensity.
Numbers 1 to 6-10 (depending which tipe of cooktop) indicate the progressive temperature levels.
Depending on the food to cook, adjust the heat intensity following the suggestions below:

At the end of your cooking, always switch off the hob
These appliances have an indicator light that inform the user that the temperature of the glass is at a
dangerous level in the event of contact with the cooking zone.
In models with knobs control, each heating elements has a corresponding residual heat indicator light,
in models with touch control any residual heat is indicated by an H by the corresponding seven-segment display.
Once a cooking zone has been turned off, the corresponding light will stay on for a period of time
necessary for the zone to cool down below the critical level.
