Turning on the plate
To turn on the electric plate, turn the knob to the setting required.
The numbers from 1 to 6 or from 1 to 11 (fig. 12), depending on whether the hob is fitted with selector
switch or self-adjusting power regulator, indicate the operating positions, with temperature rising (see
table on page 8).
A pilot light on the control panel indicates that the electric plate is in operation.
Using the electric plate
Once the contents of the pan have come to the boil, adjust the power to the heating level required,
bearing in mind that the plate will keep on emitting heat for a few minutes after it is switched off.
When using the electric plate, bear in mind that:
The plate must never be operated with no pan in place. Operating the plate without a pan,
especially for lengthy periods, may cause fires.
Try to avoid spilling liquids on the plates when hot.
Use only flat-bottomed pans of a diameter which covers the entire surface of the plate.
