Before using for the first time
To remove the new smell, switch the hotplates on to full power
for five minutes, one by one, without placing any pans on top.
Do not switch more than one hotplate on at a time. At this point
it is normal to notice smoke and odours, but these will
disappear over time.
Caution!
Do not operate the hotplates without placing pans on top,
except during this initial heating phase.
Operation
Each control knob shows the hotplate that it controls.
Switching on
Turn the control knob anticlockwise to the required setting. The
operation indicator will light up.
Setting 1: low power.
Setting 9: full power.
Note: It is recommended to start cooking on full power and
then to use intermediate power levels after a few minutes.
Switching off
Turn the control knob clockwise to the off setting. The operation
indicator will switch off.
Residual heat
The electric hob can be switched off slightly before the end of
the cooking time. The residual heat will enable you to continue
cooking for several minutes, thus saving energy.
