hotplate burners.
The left front hotplate burner (Raped) is rated at 3.0kW.
The left rear and right front hotplate burners (Semie – Raped) are rated at
1.75kW.
The centre hotplate burner (Wok – Triple Ring) is rated at 3.5Kw.
The right rear hotplate burner (Auxiliary) is rated at 1.0kW.
Check that the electricity supply is switched on. Select the burner to be used.
Push in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the large flame symbol
Press the ignition button until the burner lights. Turn the control knob to the
required setting.
A simmer position is achieved when the control knob is turned fully anti-
clockwise.
To turn off , turn the control knob fully clockwise to the '0' symbol.
Under certain conditions a slight 'popping' noise can be heard from the
hotplates. This is perfectly normal and will not affect the performance of the
appliance.
There are four sizes of hotplate burners on the hob and all are easily
adjusted to any rate of cooking required.
The chart given below is provided as a guide only and personal experience will
soon familiarise you with the correct burner and setting to use. This depends
on the size, thickness, material of saucepans and the quantity and type of
ingredients being cooked.
