Attention:
Detach the appliance from the mains if the ceramic glass is cracked and contact the After-
Sales Service.
Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the hob
surface since they can get hot.
19
HOW TO USE THE VITROCERAMIC HOB
The ceramic surface of the hob allows a fast transmission of heat in the vertical direction,
from the heating elements underneath the ceramic glass to the pans set on it.
The heat does not spread in a horizontal direction, so that the glass stays “cool” at only a
few centimeters from the cooking plate.
The cooking zones are shown by painted disks on the ceramic surface.
Before switching on the cooktop make sure that it is clean.
Important note:
The heating elements incorporate a thermolimiter that switches the element ON/OFF du-
ring all settings to protect the ceramic glass from overheating.
The use of incorrect pans and/or wrong pan positioning will cause the temperature limiter
to operate more frequently, resulting in a reduction of cooking performance.
The temperature limiter can be seen under the glass dissecting the element. This is not a
fault with the appliance.
“HI-LIGHT” SINGLE ZONES (fig. 23)
■
The heating element is formed of a coil of resistant material which reaches the working
temperature quickly.
■
These zones are controlled by a continuous energy regulator switch (fig. 22). The heat
intensity can be regulated continuously from “0” to “12” (max).
■
■
Check that the hob is clean and then switch on by turning the control knob.
When the hob is working, the power on indicator light will be on.
Figure 23
Figure 22
20
“HI-LIGHT” DOUBLE ZONES (figs. 25, 26)
■
The heating element is formed of 2 coils of resistant material which reaches the wor-
king temperature quickly.
■
This zone is controlled by a continuous energy regulator switch (fig. 24). The heat
intensity can be regulated continuously from “0” to “12” (max).
■
■
■
Check that the hob is clean and then switch on by turning the control knob.
When the hob is working, the power on indicator light will be on.
To turn on both zones of the double element, turn the double element knob fully
clockwise to the position
.
To reduce the heat of the full double element, turn its knob anticlockwise to setting “12”
or lower. Adjust the heat during cooking as necessary.
Note: if you leave the knob at the
position, the full double element will re-
main at the highest heat setting.
Figure 24
■
To return to using only the inner zone of
the double element, first turn the knob
to the “0“ (off) position (you should feel
a click) and then clockwise to a setting
from “1” to “12”.

SAFETY HINTS
1. Never put cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface when the hob is hot.
2. Make sure that the hob is clean before you use it.
3. Always ensure that the base of your saucepan is clean and dry before placing on the
hob.
4. The glass-ceramic surface and pans must be clean. Carefully eliminate any food re-
mains (especially containing sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a cleansing agent.
5. Remember that the plates will remain hot for approximately half an hour after the plate
has been switched off.
6. Before you switch the hob on, make sure that you know which knob controls the re-
quired hot plate. We advise you to set the pan over the cooking plate before switching
it on.
7. Pan handles should never stand out beyond the kitchen worktop, as there is a great
danger of knocking the pan over. This will also ensure that children cannot reach them.
8. Do not use pots and pans with rough bases (pay attention to cookware made of cast-
iron). Rough bases can damage the glass surface of the hob (scratches).
9. Pots with aluminium bottoms may leave silver streaks or spots on the hob.
10. DO NOT use the hob if the glass surface is broken or cracked in any way.
Please disconnect the appliance from the mains and call the After-Sales Service.
11. Do not lean over the cooking plate when in use.
12. Do not leave wet or damp lids on the hob.
13. Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
14. Never use the glass surface for storage.
WARNING:
■
HOBS BECOME VERY HOT WITH USE, AND RETAIN THEIR HEAT FOR A LONG
TIME AFTER COOKING HAS FINISHED. CHILDREN SHOULD BE SUPERVISED
AT ALL TIMES AND BE PREVENTED FROM TOUCHING THE HOT SURFACES
UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE APPLIANCE HAS COOLED.

Figure 29
RESIDUAL HEAT INDICATORS
The hob also features no. 6 (six) warning
lights which are connected to the corre-
sponding plates.
When the temperature of a cooking plate is
above 60°C, the relevant warning light will
also light up to warn of heat on the surface
of the hob.
This light also stay on after the cooking pla-
te 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 tou-
ching 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 co-
oking 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 will set the control knob to the required position for the cooking.
■
You should use pots and pans with flat bases (pans with the test mark for glass cera-
mic 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 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, but in special pans
or containers.
■
Do not scratch the cooktop with cutting or sharp objects. Do not use the glass
ceramic surface as a work surface.

ECONOMIC COOKING
■
The ceramic glass retains heat, so you may find that you can switch off the heat 5
minutes before you finish cooking.
■
To reduce the cooking time, the plate can be set to the maximum setting at the begin-
ning. It can then be reduced later.
24
COOKWARE:
It is very important that the pans used on the hobs are made of a suitable material and have
the correct base as follows:
■
■
■
The base should be flat and smooth.
Any rough part on the pan base could scratch the hob surface.
Choose pans which are the same size as the hotplates and with bases that are as non
reflective as possible. eg. dull and dark.
Only pans recommended for use on ceramic hobs should be used.
Pans made of the following materials can cause problems:
Cast Iron
■
■
The base may be rough which will scratch the hob.
Toughened Glass
If the pans become too hot, the hob may overheat causing
the safety cut out to operate too frequently thus reducing the
cooking efficiency.
Copper
■
Can easily distort and will therefore not form a good contact
between base and hob which will result in uneven cooking.
25
COOKING WITH FAN ASSISTED OVEN
OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Attention: The oven door becomes
very hot during operation.
Keep children away.
Heating and cooking in the fan assisted
oven are obtained in the following ways:
a. by normal convection
The heat is produced by the upper and
lower heating elements.
GENERAL FEATURES
As its name indicates, this is an oven that
presents particular features from an opera-
tional point of view.
In fact, it is possible to insert 4 different pro-
grams to satisfy every cooking need.
The 4 positions, thermostatically control-
led, are obtained by 4 heating elements
which are:
b. by semi-forced convection
The heat produced by the upper and
lower heating elements is distributed
throughout the oven by the fan.
c. by radiation
The heat is irradiated by the infra red
grill element.

The elements will turn on or off automatically which is determined by the thermostat.
The operation of the heating elements is signalled by a light placed above the knob.
FUNCTION SELECTOR KNOB
Rotate the knob clockwise to set the oven for one of the following functions:
OVEN LIGHT
By turning the knob onto this setting we light the oven cavity.
The oven remains alight while any of the functions is on.
TRADITIONAL CONVECTION COOKING
The upper and lower heating elements are switched on. The heat is diffused by natural con-
vection and the temperature must be regulated between 50°C and the maximum position
with the thermostat knob.
It is necessary to preheat the oven before introducing the foods to be cooked.
Recommended for:
For foods which require the same cooking temperature both internally and externally, i. e.
roasts, spare ribs, meringue, etc.
27
CONVECTION COOKING WITH VENTILATION
The upper and lower heating elements and the fan turn on.
The heat coming from the top and bottom is diffused by forced convection.
The temperature must be regulated between 50°C and the maximum position with the ther-
mostat knob.
Recommended for:
For foods of large volume and quantity which require the same internal and external
degree of cooking; for ie: rolled roasts, turkey, legs, cakes, etc.
DEFROST
With the thermostat knob on “0” only the oven fan is on.
The food is thawed by ventilation without heating.
Recommended for:
Quick thawing of frozen foods; one kg requires approximately 1 hour.
Thawing times vary according to the quantity and type of food to be thawed.
VENTILATED GRILL COOKING
The infra-red grill and the fan are on. The heat is mainly diffused by radiation and the fan then
distributes it throughout the oven.
Use with the oven door closed and the thermostat knob must be regulated between 50°C
and 200°C maximum.
It is necessary to preheat the oven for about 5 minutes.
For correct use see chapter “GRILLING AND AU GRATIN”.
Always grill with the oven door closed.
Recommended for:
For grill cooking when a fast outside browning is necessary to keep the juices in, i. e. veal
steak, steak, hamburger, etc.
GRILLING
The infra-red heating element is switched on.
The heat is diffused by radiation.
Use with the oven door closed and the thermostat knob to position 225 °C for max 15
minutes, then to position 175 °C.
For correct use see chapter “USE OF THE GRILL”.
Always grill with the oven door closed.
Recommended for:
Intense grilling, browning, cooking au gratin and toasting etc.
28
COOKING ADVICE
The external parts of the appliance become hot during operation.
Keep children well out of reach.
OVEN COOKING
To cook, before introducing the food, preheat the oven to the desired temperature.
When the oven has reached the desired temperature, introduce the food, control the cooking
time and tum off the oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time to recuperate the stored heat.
STERILIZATION
Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the
following way:
a. Set the switch to position
.
b. Set the thermostat knob to position 175 °C and preheat the oven.
c. Fill the dripping pan with hot water.
d. Set the jars onto the dripping pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door
and set the thermostat knob to position 130 °C.
When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn off
the oven and let cool.
REGENERATION
Set the switch to position
and the thermostat knob to position 150° C.
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven for
about 10 minutes at the highest temperature.
ROASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:
■
■
that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180 and 200 °C.
that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.
COOKING DIFFERENT DISHES AT THE SAME TIME
The fan assisted oven set on position
gives simultaneous heterogeneous cooking of
different foods.
Different foods such as fish, cake and meat can be cooked together without mixing the
smells and flavours.
This is possible since the fats and vapors are oxidized while passing through the electrical
element and therefore are not deposited onto the foods.
The only precautions to follow are:
■
The cooking temperatures of the different foods must be as close to as possible, with
a maximum difference of 20° - 25 °C.
■
The introduction of the different dishes in the oven must be done at different times in
relation to the cooking times of each one.
The time and energy saved with this type of cooking is obvious.
29
USE OF THE GRILL
Preheat the oven for about 5 minutes.
Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.
The dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
ATTENTION: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.
GRILLING AND “AU GRATIN”
Grilling may be done using the grill+fan setting
, in this setting the hot air completely
surrounds the food that is to be cooked, to give a more even and rapid cooking process.
Set the temperature knob between 50°C and 200°C maximum, preheat the oven, then
simply place the food on the grid.
Close the door until grilling is complete.
Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin”
effect.
Grilling with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
ATTENTION: the oven door becomes very hot during operation. Keep children away.

N.B. For fan ovens reduce the temperature
by 10-20°C. For any dish taking one hour
or over to cook, reduce the cooking time by
10 minutes per hour.
* Shelf positions have been counted from
the top of the oven to the base.
A fan oven creates more even temperatu-
re throughout, therefore the shelf positions
are not as critical.

CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB
■
■
■
Remove spillages and other types of
incrustations.
Dust or food particles can be removed
with a damp cloth.
If you use a detergent, please make
sure that it is not abrasive or scouring.
Abrasive or scouring powders can da-
mage the glass surface of the hob.
■
■
All traces of the cleaner must be remo-
ved with a damp cloth.
Dust, fat and liquids from food that has
boiled over must be removed as soon
as possible.
■
If they are allowed to harden they become increasingly difficult to remove.
This is especially true in the case of sugar/syrup mixtures which could perma-
nently pit the surface of the hob if left to burn on it.
■
■
Keep all objects that could be melted by the heat away from the top: plastic objects,
aluminium foil, sugar or sugary products.
If any of these products has melted on the ceramic surface, you should remove it
immediately (when the surface is still hot) by using the scraper supplied with the ap-
pliance to avoid any permanent damage to the surface of the hob.
■
■
Avoid using a knife or other sharp utensil as these may damage the ceramic surface.
Do not use steel wool or an abrasive sponge which could scratch the surface perma-
nently.
■
ATTENTION - MOST IMPORTANT!
If cleaning the glass ceramic hob using a special scraper tool take extra care to
avoid damaging the seal at the edges of the glass ceramic surface.
INSIDE OF OVEN
The oven should always be cleaned after use when it has cooled down.
The cavity should be cleaned using a mild detergent solution and warm water.
Suitable proprietary chemical cleaners may be used after first consulting with the manufac-
turers recommendations and testing a small sample of the oven cavity.
Abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads/cloths should not be used on the cavity surface.
NOTE: The manufacturers of this appliance will accept no responsibility for damage cau-
sed by chemical or abrasive cleaning.
Do not store flammable material in the oven.
