In CT5602F and CT6551S models, one of the elements is a dual element; you may use either the full element or the inner element only. See ‘Dual element controls’ below. The diameters of the cooking areas are clearly marked. The elements become red when turned on full. The elements are fitted with temperature limiters to prevent the glass from overheating. You will notice that the limiters turn the elements on and off during cooking. After an element is turned off, its ‘Surface Hot’ indicator light will glow until the glass becomes cool enough to be safely touched. Single element controls Turn the control knob of the element you wish to use to the High setting to begin cooking, and adjust as necessary. For further advice on cooking, see ‘Cookware and cooking tips’ following. High Low Fig.9 Single element control knob (knobs may vary) Using your cooktop Dual element controls (CT5602F and CT6551S models only) Select the full element by turning the knob anticlockwise to High to begin cooking, and adjust as necessary. To heat the inner element only, turn clockwise to High to begin cooking, and adjust as necessary. For further advice on cooking, see ‘Cookware and cooking tips’ following.

Cookware Use heavy-gauge, flat, smooth-bottom cookware that matches the diameter of the cooking area. This will provide good contact with the glass and help reduce cooking times. Low heat or slow cooking is often due to incorrect cookware size. Cookware with a stainless steel sandwich base or enamelled cast iron will give you the best results. Jagged edges on saucepans or heavy frypans will scratch the cooktop. Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the cooktop. Aluminium and copper-bottomed cookware can leave a metallic residue on the cooktop. If left on the glass, this becomes difficult to remove. Clean the cooktop after every use. Fig.11 Use cookware with flat and smooth bases to provide good contact with the glass Cooking tips The elements of your cooktop operate over a wide range of settings from very low to very high, giving you accurate and repeatable control of the heat. Use the low setting for delicate tasks like melting chocolate or keeping milk warm. For delicate cooking tasks and gentle simmering, you may want to experiment by turning the control knob below the marked low setting. Use the high setting for boiling or frying. Once your food is sufficiently hot or has come to the boil, reduce the temperature to maintain a steady heat and cook food through. Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy. Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times. Use residual heat retained in the glass after the element is turned off to continue the cooking process or to keep food warm. Care and cleaning Important! Switch the cooktop off at the wall before cleaning. Cut hazard – When t...
