COOKING EQUIPMENT Saucepans Fig.1 The heating zones are fitted with thermal limiters, which are a safety device to prevent the ceramic glass overheating, larger pans can be used - up to 230 mm (9") base diameter on a nominal 180 mm (7") heated area providing they do not overlap the hob trims. Only use cookware manufactured for use on ceramic hobs. Look for the relevant symbol (Fig.1).
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Before carrying out any maintenance and cleaning operations, make sure that the appliance is ISOLATED from the electricity supply. Helpful Tips Make sure the bottom of utensils and cooking areas are clean and dry.
