USING A CERAMIC HOB - GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNING: Extreme caution should be taken to avoid
steam burns and hot surfaces when cleaning up
spillage on the hot hob surface.
Always clean up any spillage immediately with a clean
cloth or a paper towel to avoid unnecessary damage to
the hob. Always ensure that the base of the utensil is
dry before placing on the ceramic hob.
When cooking food which contains sugar (most food)
or syrup, use a utensil which is large enough to prevent
boil over or spillage. Sugar spillage will permanently
damage the hob and therefore should be cleaned
off with care immediately. If sugar spillage has
occurred, remove it as long as it is still hot with a metal
handled razor-blade scraper commercially available.
This will avoid any damage.
NEVER LET IT COOL BEFORE REMOVING.

maximum contact with the hob and maximum
efficiency as with any type of electric hob.
ELEMENT CONTROLS
The elements are operated by turning the control knob (4)
in either direction until the point of the control knob is
adjacent to the desired setting - 0 for off, between 1
