2.12 Selecting the cooking zone. You have
various elements on which to place the
receptacles. Choose the most suitable one
depending on the size of the receptacle.
Make sure that the element you are going
to activate is the element you want to use
(2.12.1). Turn the control to the desired
position and the ‘on’ light will come on
(2.12.2) which also indicates the residual heat
when the element is turned off.
On the models with double elements turning
the control to the left will adjust a part of
the element (2.12.3) and turning the control
to the right will adjust the whole element
(2.12.4).
2.13 Turning the element off. Select the power
0
of the element you want to turn off.
2.14 Residual heat. After using the hob, the
elements will stay hot for some time, which
will vary according to the power selected and
a dot will be displayed on the elements that
are still hot. Do not touch these elements,
as there is a risk of burning yourself.
Recommendations:
• Avoid knocking receptacles against the glass.
• Aluminium receptacles are not advisable as
they can stain the glass, unless they have a
stainless steel protective base.
• The heat elements should not be operated
without a receptacle.
• The base of the receptacle must be fl at and
dry.
• Make sure that the diameters of the
receptacles are larger than or the same as
the element to be used and place them in the
centre of the heat source.
• Try not to move the receptacles as this can
scratch the glass.
• Only use the appliance for cooking food. Do
not use the hob as a worktop.
• Do not apply cold water directly onto the hob
when it is hot.
Caution: Intermittent operation of the cooking
zones is not a fault. They operate with longer
or shorter on and off periods depending on the
desired power.

Maintenance and
cleaning
Ovens:
3.1 Cleaning the accessories. The accessories
are dishwasher-safe. To wash them up by
hand, use normal detergent. Leave them to
soak for easier cleaning.
Cleaning the inside of the oven.
3.2 Smooth-walled models. ake out the side
runners. Depending on the models, the side
runners are fi xed in two ways, either without
a support (3.2.1, 3.2.2) or with a support
(3.2.4, 3.2.5). Clean the oven while it is
warm, wiping the walls with a cloth soaked
in hot soapy water (3.2.3, 3.2.6). When you
have cleaned the oven walls, replace the
runners.
3.3 Self-cleaning rough-walled models. On
these models, the rear plate and side panels
are covered with a self-cleaning enamel
that removes the grease while the oven is
functioning. The side panels are reversible,
doubling the lifetime of the coating.
To remove the self-cleaning panels, fi rstly
remove the side rails.
If the panels are not performing the self-
cleaning process suffi ciently, they will need
regenerating. To do this, remove all the
accessories and utensils from the inside of
the oven. Thoroughly clean the oven surfaces
that are not self-cleaning. Select the
function.
Set the temperature to 250ºC and set the
time between 30 and 60 minutes, depending
on how dirty the oven is.
When the cleaning programme ends and
the oven has cooled down, wipe the self-
cleaning elements with a damp sponge. They
will then be totally functional again.
Note: Do not use specifi c oven cleaning
products to clean the catalytic walls.
Do not scrape the surface with metal
scouring pads or sharp or pointed
instruments.
3.4 Cleaning the oven ceiling. If your oven has
a fold-down grill, pull upwards and press to
fold it down (3.4.1) and clean the top wall
with a damp cloth (3.4.2).
3.5 Cleaning the outside of the oven. Use
neutral cleaning products and dry the oven
well with a soft cloth.
3.6 The AquaSliding Function system makes it
easier to clean the oven with steam. It takes
35 minutes and is done as follows:
