Start up

Before using the appliance for the first time, let it heat up for approximately 3 minutes at maximum power (but without using a pot or saucepan), while ensuring sufficient ventilation. This will help to burn in' the protective coating which safeguards the hot-plate against corrosion. During this process, a slight smell and a little smoke may be emitted. This is normal and will only last for a very short time.

- Clean the appliance afterwards as described in section General care and cleaning) below.

Operation

◆ Always place a pot / saucepan on the hot-plate before the appliance is switched on.
◆ Ensure that the pot is clean and dry on the outside. Do not use stain covered pots / saucepans.
◆ To prevent damage to the hot-plate, only use pots / saucepans with flat

bottoms. Most suitable are pots specifically designed for use on electric plates (see picture I).

◆ Always make sure that the pot / saucepan used is of at least the same diameter as the plate; this minimises the loss of heat and prevents the plate from being damaged as a result of uneven heat distribution.

6 : Pre-cooking and quick frying ♦

4-5 : Regular cooking, frying ♦
