Cleaning and heating for the first time
Before using for the first time clean the appliance with a damp cloth and then dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use liquid dish soap, this can leave a permanent blue sheen on the ceramic surface.
Metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight smell the first time your new appliance is heated.
The smell and any vapors will dissipate after a short time and do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance defect.
