THE CHOICE OF COOKWARE - The following information will
help you to choose cookware which will give good performance.
Stainless Steel
: highly recommended. Especially good with a
sandwich clad base. The sandwich base combines the benefits
of stainless steel (appearance, durability and stability) with the
advantages of aluminium or copper (heat conduction, even heat
distribution).
Aluminium : heavy weight recommended. Good conductivity.
Aluminium residues sometimes appear as scratches on the hob,
but can be removed if cleaned immediately.
Because of its low melting point, thin aluminium should not be
used.
Cast Iron : usable, but not recommended. Poor performance.
May scratch the surface.
Copper Bottom / stoneware: heavy weight recommended. Good
performance, but copper may leave residues which can appear
as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the hob
is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil
dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass hobs. An overheated
copper pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the hob.
Porcelain/enamel : Good perfomance only with a thiny smooth,
flat base.
Glass-ceramic : not recommended. Poor performance. May
scratch the surface.
6 • HOB COOKWARE ADVICE
• Always use good quality cookware with perfectly flat and
thick bases :
using
this
type
of
cookware will prevent hot spots
that cause food to stick. Thick metal pots and pans will provide
an even distribution of heat.
• Ensure that the base of the pot or pan is dry : when filling
pans with liquid or using one that has been stored in the
refrigerator, ensure that the base of the pan is completely dry
before placing it on the hob. This will help to avoid staining the hob.
• Use pans whose diameter is wide enough to completely
cover the surface unit : the size of the pan should be no smaller
than the heating area. If it is slightly wider the energy will be
used at its maximum efficiency.
Using good quality cookware is critical for setting the best
performance from your hob.
5 • PRESENTATION
• Hilight zone : a metallic conductor strip is spread uniformly
over the whole surface unit.
It is effective within 3 seconds and is suitable for steady
,
homogeneous and also sustained cooking.
The glass-ceramic hob benefits from greater heat output which
is generated by the hilight cooking zones thereby accelerating
the cooking process. Modifications to the design of the hob
have not affected the capacity of the glass to withstand high
temperatures, but they have improved controllability.
With the "Coup de Feu" facility, reduced cooking times of up to
15% can be achieved, depending upon the method of cooking
and the type of saucepans being used.
CONNECTION TO THE TERMINAL ON THE TERMINAL BLOCK
• The hob is fitted with a power supply cord which allows it
to be connected only to a power supply of 220-240 V between
phases or between phase and neutral :
- Connect to a socket, to choose the correct fuse,
you must refer on the table.
It is however possible to connect the hob to:
. Three phase 200-240 V3~
OR
. Three phase 380-415 V3N~
7 • HOW TO OPERATE THE GLASS CERAMIC
HOB
• Locate the sign corresponding to the cooking zone that you need:
Each surface unit is regulated by a control knob which provides
access to any power levels.
• It is recommended that heat setting is at its highest until it
has
properly warmed up and then lower to the desired cooking setting.
• The residual heat indicator lights up when the heat zone
temperature reaches 60°C and above. It will stay on, even if the
unit is switched off, until the surface has cooled down. It will
switch off when the temperature of the heat zone falls below 60°C.
• To switch off an heat zone, turn the corresponding knob back
on the "0" setting.
• Positions : the examples below are intended as a guide. When
you become familiar with using your hob you will be able to work
out the settings which suit you best.
