before first use
Before you use the appliance for the first time, please do as follows: Carefully unpack the appliance and remove all the packaging
material. Keep the material (plastic bags and cardboard) out of reach of children. Check the appliance after unpacking for any
damage, possible from transportation. Place the hob on a stable and heat resistent surface. Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
The hotplates have a protective layer which should be removed before the first use. Switch the hot plates on for about 5 to 6 minutes
on the maximum position. Do not switch them on all at the same time to clear the protective layer.
There can be a slight development of smoke from the protective layer which is now burning of. Ensure there is enough ventilation in
the room. After removing the protective layer you can now switch the hob off or begin using it.
Check that the voltage in your home corresponds with the voltage printed on the bottom of the appliance and plug it in a socket.
Follow the installation instructions in chapter 6 for installing the hob.

use
The control knob is adjustable:
Setting 0: off
Setting 1: minimum power
Setting 6: maximum power
Make sure the control knob button is set to position [0] before you switch on the appliance. Plug the appliance into a socket.
SWITCHING ON
Turn the control knob on the desired setting. The red control light will up. Setting [1] of the hot plate is the lowest setting and
setting [6] is the highest setting.
It takes about 10 minutes before the hot plate has reached the maximum temperature (on the maximum position of the thermostat
knob).
Do not touch the hotplates when the hob is in use.
SWITCHING OFF
Turn the control knob to setting [0] to switch off the hotplate. The hob can be switched off slightly before the end of the cooking time.
The residual heat will enable you to continue cooking for several minutes, because the hotplate stays warm for a long time.
Be careful: the hot plates need time to cool down after switching the appliance of. Always unplug the hot plate after every use.
For an optimal result we recommend the following:
• Use cookware that fit the hotplates in diameter. This reduces the cooking time.
• Use flat bottomed cookware.
• Always use the right amount of liquid for boiling food and use a lid to reduce the cooking time.
• Use only cookware with a bottom which has the same diameter as the hot plate. A smaller diameter will lead to energy loss.

cleaning & maintenance
Let the appliance cool down and always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
Clean the hob after each use to maintain it in good condition. Food residue can create stubborn stains if not removed directly after
use.
Use a mild cleaning detergent to clean the hob.
Never use aggressive cleaning products or sharp objects to clean the hob.
Never immerse the appliance in water or others liquids.
