Cooktop controls

By using the individual burner control

knobs, temperatures can be freely se-

lected.

The controls can be turned either clock-

wise or counter clockwise.

The indicator lamp for each burner

lights as soon as the respective control

knob is turned to a setting.

It will go out when the contol knob is

turned to the ”0“ position.

A resistance can be felt between set-

tings 7 and 8 to indicate that the high

temperature range is being entered.

Correct procedure:

Place the pot of food on the burner.

Select a high setting for boiling or

searing meat.

Once steam appears on the edge of

the lid, turn to a lower setting for con-

tinued cooking.

Reducing the temperature at the cor-

rect time . . .

. . . prevents food from overcooking.

. . . prevents food from burning.

. . . saves energy.
