Operation
Electric Hotplates
To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control
knob to the required heat setting.
The control knob is numbered 0 - 6
0 - OFF
1 - Minimum
6 - Maximum.
The hob has two types of hotplates:
Normal Hotplates (Back right and left)
We recommend the plates are switched to maximum
(6) for a short while to boost the plate, and then
adjusted to the required setting.
Rapid Hotplates (Front right and left)
The rapid hotplates indicated by a red spot, will heat
up more quickly than a normal plate.
Over a period of time the red spot may
i
disappear, this will not affect the performance
of the hotplate.
It is important to note that the plate may smoke
a little and produce a slightly unpleasant odour
when used for the first time. This is quite
normal and will disappear after a few minutes.
Suggestions for the correct setting of the plates are
given in the following table.
