COOKING PLATES
The cooking plate is treated with a protection paint. On first using it, we therefore suggest to set the knob (Fig. 1) on position
3, leaving it on for approx. 5 minutes.
Optimum crockery should have a fully flat or slightly cambered base, in order for it to adhere completely to the element
surface during heating: this allows a perfect heat transfer from the element to the pan.
We recommend the use of pans having a diameter equal to that of the cooking element.
Do not rest kitchenware or lids of any kind on the elements.
When the element is functioning with no pan on its top or unsuitable pans are used (e.g., small in diamater or poor in quality),
a thermostat device prevents overheating by limiting its power.
WARNING
On first operating it or at any rate after a long period of inactivity, so as to eliminate any humidity absorbed, you should dry
up the element by turning it on for 30 minutes with the switch on position No. 1.
- Wipe dry the pan bottom before placing it on the cooking plate.
- Turn on the cooking plate only after you have placed the pan on its top.
5.2
USING THE COOKING PLATES
The control knob (Fig. 1) subdivided into seven positions, controls the surface element and sets its power.
To switch on the element, turn the knob from position "0" to the desired position (see table below): a green indicator light will
automatically come on, signalling its activation.
