dishwasher. Refer to the section "Cleaning and Storage" for more information.
b. Installing the cooking plates
• Place the appliance on a clean, flat and dry surface. The control panel should be facing you.

(Fig.1) Then press gently down on the hot plate so as to ensure that it has been correctly secured
in place.
• To remove the plates, press the release button for the plates located on the side of the appliance.
Then pull the plates towards you (Fig.2).
