Traditional

cooking

zones

are

made

up

of

circular

heating

elements.

They

turn

red

approximately

ten

seconds

after

they

have

been

turned

on.

Each

cooking

zone

is

fitted

with

a

control

knob

allowing

you

to

select

from

6

different

temperature

settings

from

a

minimum

of

1

to

a

maximum

of

6.

The

glue

that

is

applied

on

the

gaskets

leaves

some

traces

of

grease

on

the

glass.

Before

using

the

appliance,

we

recommend

you

eliminate

these

with

a

special

non-abrasive

cleaning

product.

During

the

first

few

hours

of

use

there

may

be

a

smell

of

rubber

which

will

disappear

very

quickly.

To

obtain

the

best

results

with

your

hob:

• Use

flat-bottomed

pans

to

ensure

that

they

adhere

to

the

cooking

zone

perfectly.

• Always

use

pans

with

a

diameter

that

is

large

enough

to

cover

the

hotplate

fully,

in

order

to

use

all

the

available

heat.

• Make

sure

that

the

bottom

of

the

cookware

is

always

dry

and

clean

to

guarantee

correct

adherence

and

long

life,

not

only

for

the

cooking

zones

but

also

for

the

cookware

itself.

• Avoid

using

the

same

cookware

that

is

used

on

gas

burners:

the

heat

concentration

on

gas

burners

may

deform

the

base

of

the

pan,

causing

it

not

to

adhere

correctly.

• Never

leave

a

cooking

zone

on

without

cookware

on

it

because

as

it

heats

up

and

rapidly

reaches

the

maximum

level,

it

could

damage

the

heating

elements.
