Use
1 Place a pan on the hotplate.
• Always use pans that are suitable for
electric cookers and which have a flat
base, so that they make good contact
with the hotplate.
• The pan's diameter should be the
same as or slightly larger than that of
the hotplate.
• Make sure the pan is placed in the
middle of the hotplate and the pan's
handle is in a safe, easy to reach,
position.
2 Insert the plug into the plug socket.
3 Rotate the hotplate's temperature-
control dial clockwise to the desired
setting. The hotplate's indicator light will
be lit and will go out once the hotplate
has reached the set temperature. The
indicator light will then go on and off.
Setting 'Min'
Off
Setting '1' to '2' Defrosting and gently
heating
Setting '2' to '3' Simmering and boiling
Setting '4' to '5' Frying and braising
Setting 'Max'
Quickly bringing to the
boil (select setting '2' as
soon as the water boils)
4 Rotate the temperature-control dial
anticlockwise to 'Min' when you have
finished.
5 Remove the plug from the plug socket.
The hotplate remains hot for some time
after it has been turned off. Be careful
not to burn yourself.
The heat is sufficient to keep a pan
warm for some time.
6 Allow the appliance to cool. This will
take approximately one hour.

7 Clean the appliance (see 'Maintenance
and cleaning').
Storing the appliance
You will probably leave the appliance in a
permanent position and not store it each
time after use. However, if you wish to
store the appliance, make sure it has
cooled down sufficiently and is clean
before doing so. Apply a thin layer of metal
preserver to the metal parts. Store the
appliance in a dry location where the
temperature does not fluctuate too much
(so that moisture will not condense on the
appliance).
Maintenance and
cleaning
• Never clean the appliance when it is
turned on or is still hot.
• Make sure the plug has been removed
from the plug socket before cleaning
the appliance.
• Never use abrasive or aggressive
cleaning products. Do not use metal
objects to scratch off food which is
stuck to the appliance.
• Never immerse the appliance in water.
• Make sure moisture does not get into
the appliance.
1 Clean the housing and the hotplate (or
hotplates) with a damp cloth. If
necessary, use a cleaning product that
is suitable for metal.
It is easiest to remove spilt food whilst
the hotplate is still slightly warm.
2 Dry the appliance thoroughly.
3 Apply a thin layer of a metal protective
substance to the metal parts once a
month. You can purchase this from a
kitchen appliance retailer.
