ELECTRIC COOKING HOBS
NORMAL HOTPLATE
6
To turn on the electric hotplate, rotate the knob (fig. 3.1 - 3.2) o the desired setting.
The numbers from 1 to 6 or 1 to 12 indicate the operating positions with increasing
number corresponding to higher temperature settings.
When the pan comes to the boil, turn the heat down to the level desired.
Remember that the hotplate will continue to produce heat for about five minutes after
5
it has been turned off.
RAPID HOTPLATE (red dot)
4
The rapid hotplate control knob is similar to that of the normal hotplate, with 6 or 12
selectable heating positions (fig. 3.1 - 3.2).
The characteristics of this hotplate, which is also equipped with a thermostatic cut-off
device, make it possible to:
– achieve the cooking temperature rapidly
– make full use of its output power using flat-bottomed pans
– limit the output power with unsuitable saucepans.
1
Never cook food directly on the electric hotplates! Always use a saucepan or spe-
2
cial container.

Caution! the cooking hob becomes very hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
