Stainless Steel : highly recommended. Especially good with a sandwich clad base. The sandwich base combines the benefits of stainless steel (appearance, durability and stability) with the advantages of aluminium or copper (heat conduction, even heat distribution). LAY OUT “1” LAY OUT “2” LAY OUT “3” Aluminium : heavy weight recommended. Good conductivity. Aluminium residues sometimes appear as scratches on the hob, but can be removed if cleaned immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin aluminium should not be used. 3x2,5 3x2,5 3x2,5 Cast Iron : usable, but not recommended. Poor performance. May scratch the surface. Copper Bottom / stoneware: heavy weight recommended. Good performance, but copper may leave residues which can appear as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the hob is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass hobs. An overheated copper pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the hob.

• hilight zone : a metallic conductor strip is spread uniformly over the whole surface unit. It is effective within 3 seconds and is suitable for steady, homogeneous and also sustained cooking.

. STARTING A COOKING ZONE

- Press the selection button of the required cooking zone. The "0" of the corresponding zone stays lighted when the light of the others "0" is reduced. The glass-ceramic hob benefits from greater heat output which is generated by the hilight cooking zones thereby accelerating the cooking process. Modifications to the design of the hob have not affected the capacity of the glass to withstand high temperatures, but they have improved controllability. With the "Sprinter" facility, reduced cooking times of up to 15% can be achieved, depending upon the method of cooking and the type of saucepans being used.

- Press the - or + button to select a heat level between 1 and

9. Hold down the + or - button and the heat level increases

or decreases gradually. Using good quality cookware is critical for setting the best performance from your hob. The following examples are for information only. Personal experience should then let you adapt these settings to your taste and habits. Always use good quality cookware with perfectly flat and thick bases : using this type of cookware will prevent hot spots that cause food to stick. Thick metal pots and pans will provide an even distribution of heat. Ensure that the base of the pot or pan is dry : when filling pans with liquid or using one that has been stored in the refrigerator, ensure that the base of the pan is completely dry before placing it on the hob. This will help to avoid staining the hob. Use pans whose diameter is wide enough to completely cover the surface unit : the size of the pan should be no smaller than the heating area. If it is slightly wider the energy will be used at its maximum efficiency.

1,5 H 1,5 H 1,5 H 1,5 H MAINTENANCE: - Place a few drops of the specialised cleaning product on the hob surface. - Rub any stubborn stains with a soft cloth or with slightly damp kitchen paper. - Wipe with a soft cloth or dry kitchen paper until the surface is clean. If there are still some stubborn stains: - Place a few more drops of specialised cleaning fluid on the surface. - Scrape with a scraper, holding it at an angle of 30° to the hob, until the stains disappear. - Wipe with a soft cloth or dry kitchen paper until the surface is clean. - Repeat the operation if necessary. E.g. 1800 W zone at position 6 = 32% of 1800 W power released When the "Fast heater" is on, the zone supplies 1800 W power for

2.5 minutes, and adjusts to 576 W after this time.

• For increased safety, the cooking zones cut off automatically if they are left on too long. The cut off depends on the heat level used. To desactivate the fast heater - Switch on the cooking zone, press the " - " button to come back to a normal heat level, decrease to the heat level required or to " 0 " to stop the cooking zone. . Before carrying out any maintenance work on the hob, allow it to cool down. . Only products, (creams and scrapers) specifically designed for glass ceramic surfaces should be used. They are obtainable from hardware stores. . Avoid spillages, as anything which falls on to the hob surface will quickly burn and will make cleaning more difficult. . It is advisable to keep away from the hob all substances which are liable to melt, such as plastic items, sugar, or sugar-based products. A FEW HINTS: Frequent cleaning leaves a protective layer which is essential to prevent scratches and wear. Make sure that the surface is clean before using the hob again. To remove marks left by water, use a few drops of white vinegar or lemon juice. Then wipe with absorbent paper and a few drops of specialised cleaning fluid. The glass ceramic surface will withstand scraping from flatbottomed cooking vessels, however, it is always better to lift them when moving them from one zone to another. NB: 3 0° Maxi Do not use a sponge which is too wet. Never use a knife or a screwdriver. A scraper with a razor blade will not damage the surface, as long as it is kept at an angle of 30°. Never leave a scraper with a razor blade within the reach of children. Never use abrasive products or scouring powders. . The metal surround : to safely clean the metal surround wash with soap and water, rinse, then dry with a soft cloth. 10 GB- IE

The cooking zones do not simmer or only fry gently Only use flat-bottomed pans. If light is visible between the pan and the hob, the zone is not transmitting heat correctly. The pan bottom should fully cover the diameter of the selected zone. The cooking is too slow Unsuitable pans are being used. Only use flatbottomed utensils, that are heavy and have a diameter at least the same as the cooking zone. Small scratches or abrasions on the hob's glass surface Incorrect cleaning or rough-bottomed pans are used; particles like grains of sand or salt get between the hob and the bottom of the pan. Refer to the "CLEANING" section; make sure that pan bottoms are clean before use and only use smooth bottomed pans. Scratches can be lessened only the cleaning is done correctly.
