Fig. 3.2

The ceramic surface of the hob allows

a fast transmission of heat in the vertical

direction, from the heating elements

underneath the ceramic glass to the pans

set on it.

The heat does not spread in the horizontal

direction, so that the glass stays “cool” at

only a few centimeters from the cooking

plate.

The 4 cooking zones are shown by painted

disks on the ceramic surface.

3 circuit radiant zones

Reaches the working temperature in a very

short time.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The heating elements incorporate a

thermolimiter that switches the element

ON/OFF during all the settings to protect

the ceramic glass from overheating.

The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong

pan positioning will cause the temperature

limiter to operate more frequently, resulting

in a reduction of cooking performance.
