designed for use on electric plates (see
picture I).
∙ Always make sure that the pot /
saucepan used is of at least the same
diameter as the plate; this minimises the
loss of heat and prevents the plate from
being damaged as a result of uneven
heat distribution.
Thermostat setting

4-5 : Regular cooking, frying

the wall socket afterwards to ensure that
the appliance is completely disconnected

Indicator light
The indicator light stays on while the hot-
plate is heating up. It goes out once the
pre-set temperature has been reached.
General care and cleaning
∙ Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it
is disconnected from the power supply
and has cooled down completely.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the appliance with water and do
not immerse it in water.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
∙ After use, a wet cloth may be used to
remove any spills from the plates.
∙ A special cleaning agent should be used
to treat the plate from time to time.
