USEFUL ADVICE
Using the cooking zones
For better efficiency and lower electricity
consumption, use pots of suitable width for the
cooking zones.
Using the hob
To obtain best results from your hob, take the
following precautions when cooking or preparing food.
– Use flat-bottomed pots to ensure their even
position on the cooking zone.
– Use pots of width as similar as possible to that of
the cooking zones, in order to exploit all
the heat available.
– Always check that the bottoms of pots are clean
and dry, to ensure the long life of the hob and pots.

Avoid spilling sugary substances on the hob.
If necessary, clean immediately.
Do not directly heat tins containing food.
Cooking zone automatic protection
The hob has several systems that protect against
possible overheating which could damage the
