PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
The cooking zones do not
simmer or only fry gently
The cooking is too slow
Small scratches or abrasions on
the hob's glass surface
Metal marks
Dark stains
Light surfaces on the hob
Caramelisation or melted plastic
on the hob.
• Only use flat-bottomed pans. If light is visible be-
tween the pan and the hob, the zone is not trans-
mitting heat correctly.
• The pan bottom should fully cover the diameter of
the selected zone.
• Unsuitable pans are being used. Only use flat-
bottomed utensils, that are heavy and have a diam-
eter at least the same as the cooking zone.
• Incorrect cleaning or rough-bottomed pans are
used; particles like grains of sand or salt get be-
tween the hob and the bottom of the pan. Refer to
the "CLEANING" section; make sure that pan bot-
toms are clean before use and only use smooth
bottomed pans. Scratches can be lessened only the
cleaning is done correctly.
• Do not slide aluminium pans on the hob. Refer to
the cleaning recommendations.
• You use the correct materials, but the stains per-
sist. Use a razor blade and follow the "CLEANING"
section.
