Description of the heating elements
The cooking zones consist of circular heating
elements. These become red a few seconds after they
have been switched on.
Halogen/mixed heating elements The hob uses
elements which consist of two halogen lamps and one
circular heating element. Thanks to this combination it
is possible to achieve optimal temperature distribution
over the entire surface of the cooking zone, while
maintaining all the advantages of halogen lamps. The
main feature of the halogen lamps is the
instantaneous emission of a large quantity of heat and
light, in practice:
rapid heating similar to that produced by a gas
burner
equally rapid switching-off.
They are extremely easy to use because they are
similar to the other heating elements. Please refer to
the table below:

Control knobs for glass ceramic cooking zones
Each cooking zone is fitted with a control knob which
can be used to continuously adjust the temperature
intensity level between a minimum of 1 and a
maximum of 12. The table lists the correspondences
between the positions indicated on the knob and the
use for which the hotplates are recommended.
Adjusting the extendable cooking zones
The extendable cooking zones (concentric or oval)
can be identified by the double heating zones on the
glass surface.
To use only the smaller zone, turn the control knob to
a position between 1 and 12, depending on the
heating power desired.
To use the large zone, turn the knob to the
)position,
then set the desired power level.
Operation indicator light
This is illuminated when a heating zone has been
activated.
Residual heat indicator light
This indicates that one or more cooking zones are at a
temperature greater than 60°C, even after the cooking
zones have been switched off. Some models have 4
residual heat indicator lights, one for each cooking
zone.
Technical description of the models
This table provides a model-by-model list of the
energy absorption values, type of heating elements
(halogen or radiant elements) and diameters of each
cooking zone.
