RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATOR
The hob also features 5 warning lights
which are connected to the correspond-
ing plate.
When the temperature of a cooking plate
is above 60°C, the relevant warning
lights will also light up to warn of heat on
the surface of the hob.
This light also stays on after the cooking
plate has been switched off to show that
the hob surface is still hot.
This residual heat will lasts for a long
time after the cooking plate has been
switched off.
During this time you should avoid
touching the hob surface over the
cooking area.
Please pay special attention to
ensure that children are not
allowed near the hob.
The light will switch off automatically as
soon as the surface temperature of the
cooking plate falls below 60°C.
Caution!
the cooking hob becomes very
hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.

COOKING HINTS:
– To reduce the cooking time, you can
turn the control knob to the max when
you switch the plate on.
After a short time you can set the
control knob to the position required
for cooking.
– You should only use pots and pans
with flat bases (pans with the test
mark for glass-ceramic hobs are
available from specialist shops).
The diameter of the pan should match
that of the cooking plate (or be slightly
bigger) to make the most of the
energy.
– Since the cooking surface will stays
hot for a certain time after the plate
has been switched off, you can switch
it off 5 or 10 minutes before the end
of the cooking.
The residual heat of the hob will
complete the cooking.
– To save electricity, use pan lids
whenever possible.
– Never cook the food directly on the
glass ceramic cooktop.
DEEP FAT FRYING
For safety purposes when deep fat fry-
ing, do not fill the pan more than one
third full of oil.
DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO
NOT leave the pan unattended.
In the unfortunate event of a fire, leave
the pan where it is and turn off the con-
trol knobs.
Place a damp cloth or lid over the pan to
smother the flames. Leave the pan to
cool for at least 30minutes before mov-
ing the pan.
DO NOT USE WATER ON THE FIRE.
