COMMISSIONING AND OPERATION
Before first use
• Remove packaging, clean the interior of the hob.
• Switch on the ventilation in the room or open a window.
How to use the hot plate
The level of heat can be adjusted gradually by turning the appropriate knob to the right
or left. Switching on the plate results in a green signal light on the control panel turning
on.
An appropriately selected pan saves energy. A pan should have a thick, flat base with a
diameter equal to the plate diameter as in that case is transferred most efficiently.

Notes on using the hotplate
• Ensure the heating plate is clean – a soiled zone does not transfer all of the heat.
• Protect the plate against corrosion.
• Switch off the plate against corrosion.
•
Do not leave pans and pots containing fat- and oil-based dishes unattended on the
switched-on hotplate, as hot fat tends to catch fire very quickly.
