OPERATION
Cooking Zones
The hob has 4 ceramic cooking zones. All 4 cooking
zones feature variable settings which are represented by
numbered graduations on each control knob.
Heat Control Knobs
The control knobs enable the regulation from 1-9 of the
heating capacity. The control knobs can be turned both
to the left and to the right. Setting it back to "0" turns off
the cooking zone.

cream sauces, stews and milk pudding

water or milk.

fast setting for a short while to boost the cooking zone
selected, and then turn down to the correct setting.
Two-circuits cooking zone
By turning the control knob left to the required power
level, the entire cooking zone will operate.
By turning the control knob right to the required power
level, only the centre of the cooking zone will operate.
Halogen Cooking Zone
The halogen cooking zone is heated up very rapidly
compared to the normal one-circuit cooking zone. It can
be compared with a gas cooking zone.
When switched on the halogen lamps immediately pro-
duce their full heating power.
Use the halogen heating zone to heat up food quickly.
Residual Heat Indicator
All cooking zones are related to one indicator. The war-
ning light illuminates when the surface of any cooking
zone reaches a temperature which could cause a burn.
The light will remains illuminated, after the heated-up
area has been switched off, as long as the residual heat
of the cooking surface can cause burns. The light will go
out when the temperature is below 50°C.
