Storing setting discs

The setting discs are magnetic. Keep the setting discs away

from magnetic data media, such as video cassettes, diskettes,

credit cards or cards with magnetic strips. The data these

contain could otherwise be wiped. They can also cause

interference in television sets and monitors.

Setting the hob

This section informs you how to set the hotplates. The table

shows heat settings and cooking times for various meals.

Switching the hob on and off

The main switch is used to switch the hob on and off.

To switch on: touch the

light up. The hob is ready for use.

To switch off: touch the

indicators go out. All hotplates are switched off. The residual

heat indicator remains on until the hotplates have cooled down

sufficiently.

Note: The hob switches off automatically if all hotplates have

been switched off for more than 10 seconds.

Setting a hotplate

Use the setting discs to set the desired heat setting.

Heat setting 1 = lowest setting

Heat setting 9 = highest setting

There is an intermediate setting between each heat setting. This

is identified by a dot.

To set the heat setting:

The hob must be switched on.

For wearers of electronic implants, e.g. pacemakers or

insulin pumps.!

Implants could be affected by magnetic fields. You must

therefore never carry the setting discs in your pockets. They

must be kept at least 10 cm from pacemakers.

Note: The setting discs are magnetic. Small metal parts which

attach themselves to the underside can scratch the surface of

the glass ceramic and front moulding. Always wipe and clean

the setting discs thoroughly.

Select the hotplate. Turn the appropriate setting disc until the

heat setting indicator shows the desired heat setting.

The hotplate is switched on.

To change the heat setting:

Use the setting disc to set the new heat setting.

To switch off the hotplate:

Use the setting disc to adjust the setting to

10 seconds, the residual heat indicator appears.

Note: Hotplate temperature is regulated by the heat switching

on and off. The heat may also switch on and off at the highest

setting.

When heating thick liquids, stir regularly.

For bringing liquids to the boil, use heat setting 9.
