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 You must place a saucepan filled half full with cold water on each zone as you burn it off.
o A decimal point symbol (6) will appear in the cooking zone indicator (3) of the zone that you have selected. The decimal point symbols (6) will disappear from the other cooking zone indicators (3). o Adjust the zone between power levels 1 and 9, using the plus (5) and minus (4) buttons.

Residual heat indicator o After a zone is switched off, the corresponding cooking zone indicator (3) will show the letter “H”. This means that the temperature of the zone is over 60°C and is therefore still high enough to cause injury. o If the zone falls below 60°C and there are still other zones switched on, a “0” will appear on the cooking zone indicator (3). o IMPORTANT: The residual heat indicator will disappear if your mains supply is cut.

Electronic circuit’s temperature sensor There is a temperature sensor situated inside of the hob top’s cooling unit that constantly measures the temperature of the electronic circuits that are contained in the hob.
o If the temperature sensor records a temperature that is above 270°C, it will turn the zone off. o If the temperature sensor records a temperature that is above 300°C, the electronic control will switch off. o A cooking zone overheating could be caused by an empty saucepan being placed on an active zone. o If the bottom of the pan is not fully in contact with the middle of a cooking zone, then the cooking zone temperature control may not function correctly.
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 hob surface is tough; however it is not unbreakable and can be damaged. Especially if pointed or hard objects are allowed to fall on it with some force. o DO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN OR CRACKED.
