Using the ceramic hob Before first use IMPORTANT: You should clean the ceramic hob surface (see “Cleaning and maintenance” section). o You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes at the maximum setting. This will help to eliminate any new smell that exists and evaporate any humidity that has formed on the heating elements during transit. o Do not burn off more than one zone at once. o Do not place a pan on the ceramic hob until this burn off process has been completed.
Turning on a zone and setting a power level IMPORTANT: A burner must be selected within 10 seconds of turning the hob on (see previous page). o Press the cooking zone selection button (2) for the zone that you require. o A “0” will appear on the relevant cooking zone indicator (1). o A decimal point symbol (3) will appear to show that the zone is active. o Adjust the zone between power level 1 and 9, using the plus (7) and minus (8) buttons.
Turning the hob off Once you have switched off all of the cooking zones, you should turn off the hob. o Press the ON/OFF button (6). It is possible to turn the hob off at any time by pressing the ON/OFF button (6). Residual heat indicator o After a zone is switched off, the corresponding cooking zone indicator (1) will show the letter “H”. This means that the temperature of the zone is over 60°C and is therefore high enough to cause injury.
o IMPORTANT: If the appliance is switched off whilst the safety lock feature is activated, then it will still be activated the next time that you turn the appliance on. Therefore before you can turn on a zone and set it to a power level, you will need to deactivate the safety lock by pressing the safety lock button (5). Safety cut-off o If one or more of the cooking zones are accidentally left on, a safety cut off will activate after a certain period of time.
o Finally you should select the actual power level that you want the hob to cook on, after the automatic heat up period has completed, by using the minus button (7). o The cooking zone indicator (1) will alternate between showing the actual power level and the symbol A. o Once the automatic pre-heating time period is over, only the actual power level will show on the cooking zone indicator (1).
Switching off automatic pre-heating o To switch off the automatic pre-heating mode, you firstly need to make sure that the zone you wish to take out of this mode is selected. You do this by pressing the corresponding cooking zone selection button (2). o A decimal point symbol (3) will appear to show that the zone is active. o Press the minus button (8) and hold it for ten seconds. The automatic pre-heating mode will then be cancelled and you can use the hob in normal operation once more.
o Preferably cover pans with a lid to permit cooking at a lower heat. o Always cook vegetables and potatoes, etc. in as little water to reduce cooking times. o Food or liquid that has high sugar content may damage the hob top if it comes into contact with the ceramic hob surface. Any spillages should be wiped up immediately, however this may not prevent the hob surface from becoming damaged. o IMPORTANT: The ceramic hob surface is tough; however it is not unbreakable and can be damaged.
Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning operations must only be carried out when the oven is cool. The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process. Cleaning the ceramic hob top Any residues that are left on the hob top surface from cleaning agents will damage it. You should remove any residues with water and a little washing up. Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage the hob surface; you should clean it using water and a little washing up liquid.
