Simmer function This function is extremely useful for melting food like butter, chocolate or similar and for simmering small quantities of food. Correct positioning of the grates For 36” models first position the right and left side grates (1) and then the central one (2). For 30” models the positioning order is not relevant. 1. Switch on the Dual Flame burner internal ring. 2. Set the flame to the minimum. If the external cup switches on at full power, set half power at least for the internal cup.
Use Cookware Ideally, cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a tight-fitting lid and medium-to-heavy thickness. Rough cookware finishes may scratch the appliance. Aluminum and copper may be used in cookware as a core material or base. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the appliance or grates. Cookware properties are a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is distributed, which affects cooking results.
3 Cleaning and maintenance 3.1 Instructions To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first. WARNING Ordinary daily cleaning ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD Always use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfiber cloth. • Before servicing, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
Cleaning and Maintenance 3. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth or a microfiber cloth. 4. Replace the components on the hob. Continuous contact between the grates and the flame can cause modifications to the enamel over time in those parts exposed to heat. This is a completely natural phenomenon which has no effect on the operation of this component. Flame spreaders and burner caps For easier cleaning, the flame spreaders and the burner caps can be removed. Wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent.
