FIG. 7
WARNINGS:
when the plate is switched on for the first time,
or if it has remained unused for a long period,
it should be dried for 30 minutes on switch
position n° 1. This will eliminate any moisture
that may have been absorbed by the insulating
material.
To correctly use the appliance, remember:
- to place a pan on the plate before switching
this on.
- To always use pans with flat and very thick
bottoms (see fig. 7).
- To never use pans that are smaller than the
plate diameters.
- To dry the bottom of the pan before placing it
on the plate.
- Never leave the appliance unattended when
the plates are being used. Make sure that there
are no children in the near vicinity. Particularly
make sure that the pan handles are correctly
positioned and keep a check on foods
requiring oil and grase to cook since these
products can easily catch fire.
- The plates will remain hot for a long period of
time even use after use, never touch them
with the hands or other objects in order to
prevent burns.
- Immediately disconnect the appliance from
the electricity main as soon as cracks are
noted on the surfaces of the plates.
- If the built-in hot plate has a lid, any spilt food
should be immediately removed from this
before it is opened. If the appliance has a
glass lid, this could shatter when the hot
plate becomes hot. Always switch off all the
burners before closing the lid.
