DAILY USE

Warning! Refer to the Safety chapters.
You operate the hob with the knobs of
the oven. The Daily Use chapter for the
oven tells how to operate the hob.
Rapid hot plate
A red dot in the middle of the plate shows a
rapid hot plate. A rapid hot plate heats up
faster than usual plates.
The red dots are painted on the plates.
They can deteriorate during use and even
disappear completely after a period of time.

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

Cookware
• The bottom of the cookware must
be as thick and flat as possible.
Energy saving
• If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
• Put cookware on a solid hotplate be-
fore you start it.

CARE AND CLEANING

Important! The risk of burns from residual
heat!
Let the appliance become sufficiently cool.
Scratches or dark stains on the surface
cause no effect on how the appliance
operates.
To remove the dirt:
1. Use the cleaning powder or the clean-
ing pad.
2. Clean the appliance with a moist cloth
and some detergent.
3. Heat the hotplate to a low temperature
and let it to dry.
4. To keep the hotplates in good shape,
regularly rub in a sewing machine oil.
Polish off the oil with absorbent paper.
It does not have an effect on the perform-
ance of the appliance.
Before first use
Put cookware containing water on each
cooking zone, set the maximum position
and operate the appliance for 10 min. This
is to burn off the residue in the appliance.
After that, operate the appliance at mini-
mum position for 20 min. During this peri-
od, an odour and smoke can occur. This is
normal. Make sure that the airflow is suffi-
cient.
• Stop the solid hotplate before the
end of the cooking time to use resid-
ual heat.
• The bottom of pans and solid hot-
plates must have the same dimen-
sion.
Important! For stainless steel edges of the
hob use the cleaning agent for stainless
steel.
The stainless steel edge of the plate
can change the colour as a result of
the high temperature.
The stainless steel can become dirty if the
temperature is too high. Because of this do
not cook with the stone pots, earthenware
pans or cast iron plates. Do not use the alu-
minium foil to prevent damage to the top
during operation.
The Stainless steel parts wash with water,
and then dry with a soft cloth.
