[. . . ]  In the BARBECUE and GRATIN cooking modes, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease). MULTI-COOKING • Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires more heat on 2. • Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top. bARBECUE • Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in the centre of the rack. • We recommend that you set the maximum power level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always be on. For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan (prevents crust from forming by extending cooking time). • If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process. Extendable cooking zones • Always use pans with a diameter that is large enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all the available heat. • The lowest power level can be set by turning the knob clockwise from 1 to 9. • Turn the knob to completely ()) until you hear a slight click, to enable the maximum power level, which in turn can be adjusted between 9 and 1 by turning the knob anticlockwise. To restore the minimum power level, turn the knob and set it back to position 0. For double cooking zones, the first part of the knob movement activates the smaller cooking zone (internal). To activate both (internal and external), it is necessary to turn the knob completely ()) and then select the desired power level between 9 and 1. Residual heat indicator lights (only available on certain models) • 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. The indicator lights (C) indicate that the temperature of the corresponding cooking zones have exceeded 60°C, even after the heating element has been switched off. 21 The electronic cooking programmer GB DISPLAY Programming cooking  A cooking mode must be selected before programming can take place. cLOCK icon TIMER icon END OF COOKING icon DURATION icon DECREASE TIME button •• •• SET TIME button Programming the cooking duration 1.
