USER’S MANUAL
The heating plate is an enamelled cast iron plate heated by a high-power gas burner. It can be used
as a work surface and several saucepans can be placed on it at the same time.
Cast iron stores and retains heat uniformly over its entire surface and it is possible to cook or simmer
dishes depending on the temperature. Using the heating plate is ideal for cooking a pot au feu, coq
au vin, warming a veal or fish stock or even binding a sauce.
By removing the central plug of the plate, the burner can be used as a traditional flame burner.
“TRADITION” type gas hobs are equipped with a heating plate .
