Electric Hotplates
To switch on a hotplate, turn the relevant
control knob anticlockwise to the required heat
setting.
The control knob is numbered 0 - 6
0 - OFF
1 - Minimum
6 - Maximum.
The hob has two types of hotplates:
Normal Hotplates
We recommend the plates are switched to
maximum (6) for a short while to boost the plate,
and then adjusted to the required setting.
Before the First Use of the Appliance
Before using the appliance remove
all packaging, including the
advertising labels and any
protective film.
When using the hob for the first time:
1) place on all the plates a pan filled with some
water;
2) switch the plates on for about 10 minutes at
“maximum” position until water inside the
pans boils;
3) then, turn the control knob to “minumum” and
allow the plates to run for approximately 20
minutes;
4) open a window for ventilation.
During this time, the plates may smoke a
little and an unpleasant odour may be
emitted. This is absolutely
normal
and is
caused by residues of manufacturing.
Once this operation is carried out, let the
plates to cool down, then clean them with a soft
cloth soaked in warm water.
