WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED  
INSTALLATION  
Once the hob has been installed, it is  
important to remove any protective  
materials, which were put on in the factory.  
The hob must be installed according to the  
instructions supplied.  
The hob must be installed by qualified  
personnel to the relevant British Standards.  
Please, ensure that, once the hob is  
installed, it is easily accessible for the  
engineer in the event of a breakdown.

Operat ion  
ELECTRIC HOTPLATES  
To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant control  
knob anticlockwise to the required heat setting.  
The control knob is numbered 1 - 6  
0 - OFF  
1 - Minimum  
6 - Maximum.  
The hob has two types of hotplates:  
Normal Hotplates  
We recommend the plates are switched to maximum  
(6) for a short while to boost the plate, and then  
adjusted to the required setting.  
Rapid Hotplates  
The rapid hotplates are indicated by a red dot, and  
will heat up more quickly than a normal plate. As the  
red dots are painted on the plate, they may deteriorate  
during use and even disappear completely after a  
period of time. This will not affect the performance  
of the hob.  
It is important to note that the plate may smoke  
i
a little and produce a slightly unpleasant odour  
when used for the first time. This is quite  
normal and will disappear after a few minutes.  
Suggestions for the correct setting of the plates are  
given in the following table.

Hints and Tips  
i
Saucepans for use on solid plates should have several  
characteristics:  
They should be fairly heavy duty  
They should fit the heat area exactly, or be slightly  
larger for efficient use, NEVER smaller.  
They should have a flat base to ensure good  
contact with the plate.  
This is particularly important when using pans for  
high temperature frying or pressure cooking.  
As soon as liquid starts boiling, turn down the plate  
control knob so that it will barely keep the liquid  
simmering.  
You can switch off the plate a short while before you  
finish cooking, and the final stage will be completed  
on the accumulated heat. Similarly, stews etc. cooked  
in well covered saucepans cook at lower temperature  
which is more economical.  
Ensure pans are large enough to avoid  
liquids being split onto the plates.  
Never leave the plates on without a pan on  
them or with an empty pan on them.  
Take care never to lean or reach over a hot  
electric plate. Always point pan handles  
inward or over the work surface next to the  
hob to avoid accidentally knocking over a  
pan as you pass by.  
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat,  
as the overheated splashes could easily  
ignite.  
If the control knobs become difficult to turn,  
please contact your local Zanussi Service  
Force Centre.  
7
 
Main t en an ce an d Clean in g  
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be  
carried out, you must DISCONNECT the  
hob from the electricity supply.  
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as  
spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left  
to cool.  
The Hob Top  
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth  
well wrung out in warm water to which a little  
wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the  
following:  
- household detergent and bleaches;  
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;  
- steel wool pads;  
- bath/sink stain removers.  
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is  
recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob  
Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.  
The control knobs may be removed by carefully  
pulling them upward for easier cleaning.  
The Hotplates  
Spills onto the actual plate should be removed using  
warm water and a soft brush, nylon or plastic scourer.  
To keep the plates looking as new, hotplate  
conditioner can be purchased from most hardware  
stores, e.g. "4 Hob" by HomeCare Products (follow  
the manufacturer's instruction for use).  
Alternatively, wipe the plates with a drop of olive oil  
on a kitchen towel to avoid rust. It is important to  
note that the plate will smoke a little and produce a  
slightly unpleasant odour when next used.

If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before contacting your local  
Zanussi Service Force Centre.  
IMPORTANT: If you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or  
installation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.  
SYMPTOM  
SOLUTION  
The plate does not heat up.  
Check that the unit is plugged in and the electrical  
supply is switched on  
Check that the RCCB has not tripped (if fitted)  
Check the mains fuse has not blown  
Check the correct control knob has been turned.  
The plate is not giving satisfactory results  
Check the plate is clean and dry  
Check the cooking pan is the correct size for the plate.  
Check the cooking pan has a flat bottom  
Check the setting is correct for the type of cooking.
