[. . . ] The dimensions of the heated surfaces are such that they can accommodate commercially available pans. Heat control knobs The heat control knobs allow stepless regulation of the heat output from 1 to 12. They can be turned both to the right and to the left. Touch control knob for the doublecircuit heating element The second heating circuit is activated when the corresponding heat control knob is turned on and the touch control pressed. The heating circuit is switched off when the control knob is turned back to the zero-position. Residual heat indicator This warning lamp will light up when the surface of the hot plate section reaches a temperature which could cause burning. This lamp will also remain lit after heated area has been switched off as long as the residual heat at the surface of the ceramic plate is enough to cause burns. The lamp will only go out when there ceases to be any danger (temperature under 60° C). The residual heat should be used to completing the cooking process or to keeping warm food. 15 Practical Information for the housewife The correct pans - See figure 4 Pans with a flat, solid base must be used on the heating sections of the ceramic hotplate. Uneven pans or pan bases will lead to unnecessarily long cooking times, and thus higher energy con sumption. For cooking which requires a particularly high tem perature pans with thick flat bases are most suitable. In this case immediately call in the customer service engineer. 17 Care and cleaning Your ceramic hob surface is resistant to extremes of temperature. Neither the cold nor the heat can harm it. However, it can be damaged by the impact of any thing which is punctiform such as a springkling of salt, a spice bottle or any other small object. Clean your ceramic hot plates surface thouroughly before its first use and then clean it regularly, when it is just warm or cold, and avoid continual burning of dirt until it is solidified. For cleaning use: kitchen roll or clean cloth razor blade scraper Sidol stainless steel cleaner with alcohol or a steel fixer or Cera-Fix or Collo Profi The choice of cleaning material is determined by how dirty the surface is: Light dirt which has not been burnet solid can be wiped off with a soft cloth. All larger amounts of dirt which have become encrusted upon the surface can be simply and easily removed with a razor blade scraper. Lime and water deposits, fat splashes and discolourations which shimmer in a metallic way are to be cleaned with Sidol steel cleaner and steel fixer or Cera-Fix and Collo Profi. Do not use scourers containing powder and sponges with abrasive sides. Pay special attention to making sure that residual quantities of sugar, jam and juices containing sugar, and of plastic objects or aluminium foil are immediately while they are still hot with a glass craper. [. . . ] Do not use scourers containing powder and sponges with abrasive sides. Pay special attention to making sure that residual quantities of sugar, jam and juices containing sugar, and of plastic objects or aluminium foil are immediately while they are still hot with a glass craper. lf they are not removed quickly the ceramic surface may be damaged. 18 Care and cleaning Note: Changes in colour of the hot plate sections are not due to a change in the material, but they are food residues which have become burnt on as they have not been regularly removed by cleaning.
