The radiant heating elements are composed of circular
heating elements. They only become red after being turned
on for 10-20 seconds.
The cook-top electric plate control knobs (I)
The cookers may be equipped with standard, fast and
automatic electric plates in various combinations (the fast
plates distinguished from the others by a red dot in the
centre, the automatic ones by a round aluminium disk at
the centre.
To avoid heat dispersion and damage to the plates, recom-
mend using cooking vessels with flat bottoms in diameters
which are not smaller than the plate diameter.
Table shows the correspondence between the position
indicated on the knobs and the use for which the plates
advised.

Instructions for using the pyroceram top
To obtain the best results from your hob, there are some
basic rules to follow when cooking or preparing food.
• All types of pots and pans may be used on the ceramic
glass cooktop. However, the bottom surface must be
perfectly flat. Naturally, the thicker the bottom of the
pot or pan, the more uniformly the heat is distributed.
• Make sure that the base of the pan completely covers
the cooking ring, so as to make full use of the heat
produced
• Always make sure that the pan base is always dry and
clean so as to guarantee proper contact as well as
longer-lasting pans and the long life-span of the hob.
• Do not use the same pans which are used for cooking
on gas burners. The heat strength of gas burners may
deform the pan base and will not give the same results
if it is subsequently used on a glazed ceramic hob.
