To spare the hot plate and for saving power, we
advise you:
1. to use flat bottom pots, with the right diameter,
never smaller.
2. avoid liquids over flowing when boiling.
3. never leave the plates on without a pot on
them or with an empty pot on them.
Over a period of time the red spot may
disappear,
this
performance of the hotplate.
It is important to note that the hotplate may
smoke and produce a slightly unpleasant
odour when used for the first time. This is
quite normal and will disappear after some
time.
Cooker operation pilot light
This light will illuminate when one of the hotplates
knobs is turned on and remains lit while the
hotplates are in use.
Selecting the Correct burner
Above every knob there is a symbol for the
corresponding burner.
For good cooking results, always chose pans,
which properly fit to the diameter of the burner
used (fig. 14). Chose thick, flat bottom pots.
We recommend the flame is lowered as soon as
the liquid starts boiling.
For a correct ignition always keep the burner ring
and the spark plugs clean.
The following diameter pans can be used:

Use advice
Never leave the plates on without a pan on
them or put a material between the plate and
the pot;
For saving power, it is advisable to cover the
pot every time the recipe allows it;
Turn off the knob before cooking is finished as
the accumulated heat will finish cooking (paste,
rice, smoothing);
For avoiding overflowing (milk, oil, sauce ...) fix
the knob on a weaker position some minutes
before boiling, do not fill the pots;
When reducing the power or the plate is turned
off, the temperature lowers slowly.
