Never place materials or substances which may melt (plastic or aluminium foil) on to the cooking hob. In the event, promptly switch off and remove the molten material with the scraper provided while the top is still warm to prevent it from being damaged. Failure to instantly clean the glazed ceramic hob could lead to encrustations which are impossible to remove once the hob has cooled down.

Make sure that children never touch the cooking hob. 4. 2 Cooking tips The following table shows the knob setting according to the type of food to be cooked or heated.
