Indesit VRM641MDC User Guide

Traditional cooking zones (A) consist of circular heating 
elements. They turn red approximately ten seconds after 
they have been switched on.
Each cooking zone is fitted with a control knob (D) which 
allows you to select from 12 different temperature settings 
between a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 12.

The extendable radiant elements (B) are distinguished by 
the fact that they have a double heating zone. You can 
switch the smaller internal cooking zone on its own, or 
both the external and internal zones.
The control knob (D) allows you to choose between two 
power levels, which may both be adjusted between a 
minimum value of 1 and a maximum of 12:
•  The lowest power level can be set by turning the knob 

clockwise from 1 to 12.

•  Turn the knob completely round (

), until you hear a 

slight click, to enable the maximum power level. This in 
turn can be adjusted to a value between 12 and 1 by 
turning the knob anticlockwise. To restore the minimum 
power level, turn the knob and set it back to position 0.

For double cooking zones, the first part of the knob 
movement activates the smaller (internal) cooking zone. 
To activate both (internal and external), it is necessary to 
turn the knob completely (

) and then select the desired 

power level between 12 and 1.

Residual heat indicator light (E)

zones have been switched off. Some models have 4 
residual heat indicator lights, one for each cooking zone.
