Description of cooking zones

Halogen elements

This type of element transmits heat through the radiation of the halogen lamp which it contains. It is held in high regard
because of its properties which are similar to the typical characteristics of gas: rapid response to commands, instant
display of power.

The radiant elements

This type of element is made up of many coils which guarantee the uniform distribution of heat on the bottom of the pot,
to ensure perfect cooking on low heat: stews, sauces or dishes that require reheating.

Each cooking zone is activated by a power adjustment
device which is made up of a double key (+,-).

activated by means of key provided.

As long as the temperature of the cooking zones remains
