scraper, etc.) must be kept away from the

reach of children as they can constitute a po-

tential source of danger.

Environmental hints

Packing

Do not throw the packing into the garbage:

first sort out the different materials (i.e.: steel,

cardboard, polystyrene) following local regu-

lations.

●This appliance has been designed for dome-

stic "cooking" use only.

PRECAUTIONS AND USEFUL SUGGESTIONS

●The Manufacturer cannot be held responsible

for damages derived from improper, wrong

and unreasonable use. (i.e. heating rooms).

The use of electric household appliances requi-

res observation of several fundamental rules.

●The glass ceramic hob has a good mechanical

strength and can withstand small accidents,

misuse; however, if some objects should fall

on the surface and damage it, please do not

use the hob. Disconnect it from the electrical

supply and contact the nearest Service Centre.

●Do not use the glass ceramic hob as a working

surface.

●Do not use plastic utensils or aluminium foil

containers to cook foods on the glass ceramic

hob.

●Before operating the hob, check that the

cooking zones are clean, with no grease,

food or liquid deposits: do not use pans with

wet bases.

●When the hob is in use, the surface of the

cooking zones is very hot. For this reason

keep children away from it.

●As overheated fats and oils can easily ignite,

do not leave frying food unattended.

●Do not operate the cooking zones without

anything on them.

●Do not let electric wires (i.e.: of small hou-

sehold appliances) come into contact with

warm parts of the hob.

●Remember synthetic clothes, plastic utensils

or any other similar materials could ignite on

the hob.

●Take care not to scratch the surface of

the glass ceramic hob with the bottom of

pans.

●For best cooking results, we recommend the

use of stainless steel pans with flat bases. The

diameter of the base must be the same or sli-

ghtly greater than that of the plate.

●Never sprinkle sugar or sweetened foods

ch as jams, jellies and juices on the hob.

Should it happen, please clean thoroughly

the hob by carefully following the cleaning

instructions.

HOW TO USE YOUR GLASS CERAMIC HOB

HOW TO USE THE DUAL COOKING ZONE

●The cooking zones are clearly marked on the

hob surface.

●The switching on, adjustment and switching

off of the cooking zones are controlled by

turning the knobs situated on the oven

clockwise.

These knobs are marked 0 to 6 or 0 to 11.

Each number corresponds to a cooking power.

●The hob is provided with 4 indicator lights

showing when the cooking zones are hot.

These indicator lights switch on as soon as the

cooking zones reach a high temperature

These indicator lights remain on even after

switching off of the relevant cooking zone

and they switch off only when the tempera-

ture of the cooking zone is no longer dange-

rous.

There is the possibility to increase or enlarge the

cooking zone by switching on an additional

second zone. You switch on the second zone

turning the knob clockwise to the end position

(above position 11) .

Afterwards you can adjust on the requested

power (between 11 and 1). To reuse the inter-

nal cooking zone, switch off and switch on

again.
