7.5 Electric elements
7.5.1 Turning on electric elements
Hobs may be fitted with an electric element of
varying diameter. The electric element is controlled
by a switch and is turned on by rotating the
appropriate knob to the desired position.
Raised indicators make for easier and clearer reading and use of the
controls, each knob being connected to its corresponding electric
element by a rib. Setting corresponds to the elongated part of the knob
or to the marking on it. When the electric element is powered, an
appropriate indicator light comes on in the front panel.
