WARNING
CAUTION
The ceramic cooktop is made from ceramic glass,a tough
durable material that withstands heating and cooling
without breaking. However, it must be remembered that
as it is glass, it may break. Treat it accordingly! Should you
have any questions about the glass in your new appliance,
please contact the Customer Care Centre. See back page
for contact details.
The heating elements are concealed under the smooth
glass surface which has a pattern to show the location
of the elements. The glass will retain heat for a period
of time after the appliance has been turned off. This
is indicated by a "HOT SURFACE" warning light. It will
remain on whenever the glass surface exceeds 60°C.
Utensils
• Use pans with smooth, clean and dry bottoms to
avoid scratching or burning residue into the glass.
• Ensure the pan bottom is the same size as the
working element.
• We do not recommend ceramic glass pans because
they do not conduct heat well. Stainless steel or
enamelled saucepans are best.
• Do not use pans with copper or aluminium bottoms
because they can leave traces which are difficult to
remove from the glass.
• If buying new utensils, select enamelled steel pans
with 2-3mm thick bottoms or stainless steel pans with
sandwich bottoms 4-6mm thick. The pan bottom
should be flat, or preferably, slightly concave at room
