During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly. Practical advice on using the hob • Use pans with a thick, flat base to ensure that they adhere perfectly to the cooking zone. Switching the cooking zones on and off To switch on a cooking zone, turn the corresponding knob in a clockwise direction. To switch it off again, turn the knob in an anticlockwise direction until it is in the “0” position. If the COOKING ZONE ON indicator light is lit, this shows that at least one pf the cooking zones on the hob is switched on. • Always use pans with a diameter that is large enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all the heat produced. Cooking zones The hob is equipped with electric radiant heating elements. The residual heat indicator light: this indicates that the A A temperature of the corresponding cooking zone B is greater than 60°C, even when the heating element has been switched off but is still hot. The circular radiant heating elements become red 10 - 20 seconds after they have been switched on.

[. . . ] • If plastic or sugary substances have accidentally been melted on the hob, remove them immediately with the scraper, while the surface is still hot. • Once it is clean, the hob may be treated with a special protective maintenance product: the invisible film left by this product protects the surface from drips during cooking. This maintenance should be carried out while the appliance is warm (not hot) or cold. • Always remember to rinse the appliance well with clean water and dry it thoroughly: residues can become encrusted during subsequent cooking processes.
