BEFORE FIRST USE
■ Remove all packaging materials, including promotional tags and labels from the
appliance.
■ Wipe the surface of the appliance with aclean, lightly dampened cloth. Then wipe
it dry.
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
■ Place the appliance on akitchen countertop or on atable within reach of apower
socket. At the same time, make sure that all safety instructions are followed.
■ Make sure that the temperature control knob A3 and A6 is set to position MIN and
that there are no foreign objects are located on the hotplate A1 and A4 and that
its surface is clean.
■ Fully unwind the power cord and connect it to apower socket. Since the appliance
heats up during operation, the power cord must be located in such away that it is
not touching the surface of the appliance.
■ Place apot or pan on the appropriate hotplate.To achieve optimal power consumption
and cooking time, use cookware with aflat base, the diameter of which corresponds
to the size of the hotplate. Place foodstuffs into the pot or pan.
■ Set the required temperature level using the appropriate temperature control knob.
For quickly bringing the contents to aboil, use the highest level MAX, for frying we
recommend setting level 5, for maintaining aboil, set the medium levels 3 to 4 and for
keeping food warm, use the low levels 1 to 2.The temperature level can be changed
at any time during operation as required. During operation the thermostat switches
the hotplate on and off to maintain the set temperature. The indicator light A2 and
A5 signals the thermostat switching on and off.
■ Regularly check the condition of the food while the hotplate is running. Do not leave
the appliance without supervision when it is in operation.
Note:
When rst turned on, asmall amount of smoke may be emitted. This is an
entirely normal event, which will disappear after afew minutes.
■ When the meal is finished, set the appropriate temperature control knob to position
MIN and disconnect the power cord from the power socket.
■
Always after finishing using the appliance, make sure that both the temperature
control knobs A3 and A6 are set to position MIN and that the power cord is
disconnected from the power socket.
■ Allow the appliance to fully cool down and then clean it according to the instructions
in chapter Cleaning and maintenance. Keep in mind that the appliance will emit
residual heat for acertain time after it is used. Do not touch the hot surface. There is
adanger of burns. Never move the appliance unless it has cooled down completely.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

hotplate A1 and A4 dry.
■ To clean the surface around the hotplates A1 and A4 use asoft, lightly dampened
textile. In the event of greater soiling, use asmall amount of neutral kitchen detergent.

thoroughly wipe the cleaned surface until dry.
■ Do not use steel wool, solvents, cleaning products with an abrasive effect, etc. to
clean the appliance. Otherwise the surface coat of the appliance may be damaged.
