prior to first use

Before using the appliance for the first time, you should proceed as follows: carefully unpack the hob and remove all packaging
material and any promotional stickers. Keep the packaging (plastic bags and cardboard) out of the reach of children.
After unpacking the appliance, check it for external damage that may have occurred during transport.
Place the hot plate on a sturdy, flat and heat-resistant surface. Clean the hot plate with a slightly damp cloth. The cook plate(s)
is/are provided with a protective layer that must be removed prior to first use. This is done by turning on the cook plate
at maximum level for approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Light smoke may form due to the protective layer burning off the cook plate.
After removing the protective layer you can switch off the cook plate or start using it.

use
Make sure the thermostat button is on the «OFF» position before the appliance is switched on. Insert the plug in the socket.
Turn the thermostat knob to the right, to the required position. The accompanying indicator led will light up.
Position «MIN» of the cook plate is the lowest position and position «MAX» is the highest position.
Use a low position [ MIN to 4 ] for simmering and a higher position [ 5 tot MAX ] for boiling and frying.
The thermostat button is a stepless control.
OFF = off
MIN = low
1-4 = keep warm-simmer
5
= boiling and frying
MAX = high
It takes approximately 10 minutes for the cook plate to reach maximum temperature (on the maximum setting of the thermostat knob).
When the temperature that belongs to the set position is reached, the indicator led switches off. After a drop in temperature,
heat transfer to the pan, the thermostat switches on again. The indicator led will light up again.
Due to the construction of the hot plate, it remains hot for some time after switching off. This residual heat can be used to keep
the food warm for a short period of time.
CAUTION: THE APPLIANCE CAN GET VERY HOT DURING USE, THEREFORE PLACE THE APPLIANCE DURING USE ON A HEAT-
RESISTANT PLATE AND NEVER, FOR EXAMPLE, ON A PLASTIC TABLE, PLASTIC TABLE CLOTH OR REFRIDGERATOR.
Only use pans with bottoms that have the same diameter as the hot plate itself. Smaller diameters lead to loss of energy.
Do not touch the hot plate when it is switched on. Please note that the hot plate does not cool down immediately after being
switched off. Turn the thermostat button to the «OFF» position to switch off the hot plate and after each use, remove the plug
from the socket.
