Cooking zone controls and indicators Using the ceramic hob Before first use IMPORTANT: You should clean the ceramic hob surface (see “Cleaning and maintenance” section). o An “H” may appear in the cooking zone indicators when the appliance is connected to the power supply for the first time. o You should switch on one cooking zone at a time, for 5 minutes at the maximum setting.
Turning the hob on o Press the ON/OFF button (1) o The cooking zone indicators (6) will all read “0”. o The decimal point symbols (7) will flash on and off. Turning on a zone and setting a power level IMPORTANT: A zone must be selected within 10 seconds of turning the hob on. o Press the minus button (4) for the zone that you want to use. The preset hob zone level is setting number 4. o Adjust the zone between power levels 1 and 9, using the plus (5) and minus (4) buttons.
Turning on the double hyperspeed zone The double hyperspeed zone has two cooking areas that you can use, a central section and an outer section. You can use the central section (A) independently or both sections (B) at once. o Press the minus button (4) for the double hyperspeed zone. o Adjust the zone between power levels 1 and 9, using the plus (5) and minus (4) buttons. o The central section is switched on.

Turning off a zone instantly o Press the minus button (4) and the plus button (5) simultaneously. o The zone will switch off immediately. o An “H” will show in the cooking zone indicator (6). (See the section on the “residual heat indicator” on page 16).
Residual heat indicator o After a zone is switched off, the corresponding cooking zone indicator (6) will show the letter “H”. This means that the temperature of the zone is over 60°C and is therefore high enough to cause injury. o If you switch off the appliance using the ON/OFF button (1) then the “H” will remain in the cooking zone indicator (6) whilst the temperature of the zone remains above 60°C. o When the temperature of the zone falls below 60°C, then the letter “H” will go out.
Safety cut-off o If one or more of the cooking zones are accidentally left on, a safety cut off will activate after a certain period of time. The length of time depends on the power level that a zone or zones have been set on. LEVEL TIME LIMIT 1 10 hours 2–3 5 hours 4 4 hours 5 3 hours 6–8 2 hours 9 1 hour o If the safety cut off has activated, the symbol “H” will appear in the cooking zone indicator (6) that applies to the cooking zone that has been left on.
o When the minus button (4) is released, the decimal point will stop flashing and the power level that you have selected will appear on the cooking zone indicator (6). o Once the automatic pre-heating time period is over, the hob will beep once and the decimal point symbol will go out. Only the actual power level will show on the cooking zone indicator (6).
Switching off automatic pre-heating o If a zone is already within automatic pre-heating mode and you wish to cancel it. o Press the minus button (4) to activate the zone. The decimal point symbol (7) will come on. o Press the minus button (4) again and the automatic pre-heating mode will then be cancelled and you can use the hob in normal operation once more.

o If you wish to cancel the timer setting before it reaches the end of the countdown period, press the plus (14) and minus (13) buttons of the timer simultaneously. o IMPORTANT: If you cancel the timer setting, the selected zone will still remain on, therefore you will need to turn the zone off manually. Hob guidelines o The first few times the hob top is used, it may give off an acrid, burning smell. This smell will disappear completely with repeated use.
o Food or liquid that has high sugar content may damage the hob top if it comes into contact with the ceramic hob surface. Any spillages should be wiped up immediately, however this may not prevent the hob surface from becoming damaged. o IMPORTANT: The ceramic hob surface is tough; however it is not unbreakable and can be damaged. Especially if pointed or hard objects are allowed to fall on it with some force. o DO NOT USE THE HOB IF THE SURFACE BECOMES BROKEN OR CRACKED.
