15 Using your cooktop The cooking zones become red when turned on full. Whenever a cooking zone is turned on, the ‘Cooking zone On’ indicator light will glow.

16 Cooking guidelines Cookware Use heavy-gauge, flat, smooth-based cookware that matches the diameter of the cooking zone. This will provide good contact with the glass and help reduce cooking times. Low heat or slow cooking is often due to incorrect cookware size. Cookware with a stainless steel sandwich base or enamelled cast iron will give you the best results. Saucepans or heavy frying pans with jagged edges or a rough base will scratch the glass. Always lift pans off the cooktop -

17 Cooking guidelines Important! Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Take care when deep-frying: oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high setting. General cooking tips Using a lid will reduce cooking times through retaining the heat. Minimise the amount of liquid to reduce cooking times. Start cooking on a high setting and reduce it when the food has come to the boil or heated through.

18 Care and cleaning Important! For your safety, switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall before any cleaning. In this case, there will be no ‘Hot surface’ indication, but the cooking zones may still be hot! Take extreme care. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean your cooktop. Do not use scourers or any harsh/abrasive cleaning agents to clean your cooktop, as these can scratch the ceramic glass or stainless steel. What? How? Important! soiling examples Light soiling on 1
