Their position is clearly indicated by circles and the heat given off is defined by the markings on the glass surface. The 5 cooking zones are of the HIGH-LIGHT type and come on after a few seconds of being activated.

The cooking zones marked by two concentric circles ( )and by a circle + fish-kettle ( ) feature double heating either within the inner circle or both circles. The 4/5 signal lamps located between the cooking zones come on when the temperature of one or more of the heating zones exceeds 60°C.
