A. cooking area.
B. lights which indicate whether the corresponding heaters
are at a temperature in excess of 60°C - even when
the electrical supply has been switched off i.e. residual
heat.

How to get the best use from your hob
When using the hob, it is important to follow a few basic
rules:
• Use flat-bottomed pans so that they sit evenly on the
heating zone.
• Always use pans that cover the entire heating zone,
for maximum energy efficiency.
• Ensure pan bases are always dry and clean; this will
help keep both the hob and pans in good condition.
• Avoid cooking with pans that are used on gas burners.
The concentrated heat source of gas burners can warp
the bottom of the pan, and you will not achieve
satisfactory results on the ceramic glass hob.
• Never leave a heating zone on without a pan covering
it, otherwise it will heat up too quickly, which could
damage the element.
• The hob's ceramic glass surface is heatproof and
shockproof. However, it could crack if struck by a
pointed object. If this happens, disconnect the power
supply immediately and contact an approved service
centre to get the hob repaired.
