BEFORE THE FIRST USE

Before using the appliance for the first time, make sure the 4 feet are fitted correctly underneath the appliance. Never use the appliance if the feet are not fitted correctly as this would damage the appliance and the work surface underneath the appliance. USE First check that the voltage marked on the product is the same as your supply voltage. Select a suitable position close to an electric socket, on a dry and even surface. Make sure the controls are in the OFF position (0). Plug in. The invisible protective coating must be removed before you can use the appliance. To do this, set the controls to the maximum setting and leave switched on for approximately 10 minutes. Smoke will develop, make sure that the room is ventilated. Switch off the cooking plates and allow to cool down completely. The cooking plates are now ready for use. Always use flat-bottomed saucepans, which make good contact with the cooking plates. The saucepan bases should ideally be of the same size as the cooking plates. Select the temperature. The cooking plates have a range of temperatures. Due to the cooking plates’ construction, residual heat will remain after switching off. This may be used to keep food warm for a short period. After use, turn the temperature dials to "0" and unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet.14

CLEANING Before cleaning, unplug and wait for the appliance to cool down. Wipe with a moistened cloth. Do not clean with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will damage the finish. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
