The ceramic hob The ceramic hob The ceramic hob has four cooking areas (heating zones). Even with the control still turned on during cooking, these areas may be seen to switch off and on at intervals, depending partly on the heat setting used. This switching can also occur with the control turned to its maximum setting, to prevent overheating.

The ceramic hob Choosing suitable pans Greater attention needs to be paid to the type and con- dition of pans used on ceramic hobs than it does with radiant hobs. Here are some points to remember: • Check the pan bases. Bases which are convex (curve outwards) will tend to spin on the hob and will not conduct heat very well.
The ceramic hob Cleaning the ceramic hob Use the scraper supplied to remove spillages immedi- ately, while the hob is still hot, especially sugar and foods with a high sugar content (e.g. jam), melted plas- tics and foil, all of which can damage the hob if left. IF THE HOB IS VERY SOILED 1 Remove soilage using the razor blade scraper (see below).
The oven The oven The oven has removable side racks for the shelves with three rungs on each side. The functions of the oven For all oven functions, the indicator light comes on when the oven is heating and goes out when the set temperature is reached (goes on and off as the thermo- stat switches in and out).
The oven THE PRINCIPLE FOR FAN ASSISTED OVEN Top and bottom elements and a ring element around the fan heat the air which then spreads through the air ducts in the back wall of the oven. The hot air circu- lates in the oven before being drawn back in through the fan grill.
The oven Cooking is normally best when using an oven BOTTOM HEAT shelf. Fan-assisted cooking Use the when cooking on several ASSISTED OVEN shelves at the same time, e.g. meatloaf, meatballs and complete meals (starter, main dish and dessert). Remember to choose dishes that need the same temperature.

The oven Grilling Size, shape, quantity, the degree of fat marbling, and even the initial temperature of the meat all affect the outcome and time of the grilling process. Fish, poultry, veal and pork will not brown as much as the darker meats such as beef and game.

The oven Low temperature cooking, max. 125°C. Set the function control to and the temperature control to the required temperature (max. 125°C). The low temperature method is ideal for food which can be cooked slowly. When planning your cooking, remember that it takes longer with this method before the food is ready.
The oven Cleaning and maintenance The oven The oven surfaces are of vitreous enamel. The outer section, the door front, can easily be removed for cleaning (see “The oven door” below). IF THE OVEN IS VERY SOILED Use a spatula or similar implement to remove spillages which have hardened.
The oven To change the oven light bulb Turn all controls to off and check that the oven is not hot. Unscrew the glass cover (see illustration). Unscrew the old bulb. Fit a new bulb, marked 230–240 V, 15 W and 300°C, with an E14 screw fitting.
